Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: S D Torrens| T: J C McConnell| OR: 142| CD

3/1

Useful hurdler. Winner of this race 12 months ago. Good 9½ lengths second of 6 to Echoes In Rain in Mares Champion Hurdle (28/1) at Punchestown (19.1f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Expected to be bang there.

Party Central^t²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G Elliott| OR: 142

7/4

Promising sort. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Career best when winning on last outing in this sphere at the 2022 Punchestown Festival. Remains open to improvement and looks the pick of the Gordon Elliott-trained trio.

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Donagh Meyler| T: G Elliott| OR: 128

4/1

Useful hurdler. Career best when winning 14-runner listed hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft, 7/2) 19 days ago by 4¼ lengths from The Model Kingdom, forging clear. More needed.

Enfranchise¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Brian Hayes| T: J J Hanlon

100/1

Useful Flat winner. Once-raced maiden over hurdles (beaten 15½ lengths into tenth in the listed race won by Shecouldbeanything at Punchestown last month). Easy to look elsewhere on this occasion.

Night And Day¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| D

11/2

Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Creditable 7½ lengths fifth of 14 to Shecouldbeanything in listed hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft, 5/1) 19 days ago, left poorly placed. Place possibilities.

Form: 9/1P5-

Silent Approach²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: C O'Keeffe

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Creditable second of 14 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16f, soft, 2/1) 28 days ago but this is much tougher.

Form: 59242-

Walk With Paul^t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: C Brassil| T: M Brassil| OR: 119

7/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Creditable 5¾ lengths third of 14 to Shecouldbeanything in listed hurdle (10/1) at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft) 19 days ago, travelling strongly. Not without each-way hope.

PARTY CENTRAL hasn't been seen out in this sphere for over a year but her wellbeing is proven having returned with a winning debut on the Flat at Gowran last month. While that success was gained on heavy ground, she's fully effective on a faster surface (4-4 overall on good/yielding) and, open to further progress, she is taken to get the better of last year's winner of this, Anna Bunina. Night And Day was behind a couple of these last time but there were excuses that day and she is third choice.
