Construct^t⁹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: R A Doyle| T: J C McConnell| D

8/1

One-time fairly useful hurdler. Fair on Flat nowadays, eighth of 10 in handicap at Roscommon (11.7f, good) in June. Absent since and others make greater appeal now sent chasing.

Form: 02740/8-

Dutch Schultz^h²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: C D Maxwell| T: G P Cromwell

9/4

Fairly useful hurdler. 1 win from 2 runs this season. 9/4, career best when winning 11-runner novice hurdle at Wexford (16.7f, soft) 28 days ago, going clear. Makes chase debut and he's one to consider.

Form: 4/545-21

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: K C Sexton| T: G Elliott| C

13/2

Fair in bumpers and similar form over hurdles, best effort yet when landing 2m maiden here 2 weeks ago. Remains low mileage and likely he can do better again now tackling larger obstacles.

Form: 36-6441

Typical Thomas¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: P T Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: James Andrew Fahey| D

10/3

Fairly useful hurdler. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 33/1, second of 8 in novice chase at Downpatrick (19.2f, good) 11 days ago, that despite not jumping well. Claims with a repeat for all he's no sure thing to back that up.

Form: 0785P2

Western Comandor^t¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: L Quinlan⁽⁵⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 105

14/1

Fair winner at 17f over hurdles. 11/1, fifth of 9 in novice chase at Ballinrobe (23f, good to soft) 11 days ago, mistake 3 out and late headway. Handicaps may be more his bag in this sphere.

Natural Look¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: S Fitzgerald| T: D Queally

5/2

Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 3/1, solid start in this sphere when third of 9 in novice chase at Tramore (21.7f, soft) 19 days ago. May well do better.

50/1

Dutch Schultz (9/4), Natural Look (5/2), Typical Thomas (10/3), Nottodaybobo (13/2), Construct (8/1), Jay Jay Zee (10/1), Western Comandor (14/1), Must Meet Cecil (14/1), Fox Fearless (25/1), Longhouse Star (25/1), Cosmic Blizzard (50/1)

NOTTODAYBOBO stepped up on his previous hurdles exploits when opening his account in maiden company here 2 weeks ago and, with potential for better still now tackling larger obstacles, he shades the vote to come out on top for his powerful stable. Fellow recent hurdles scorer Dutch Schultz and Natural Look are others to consider. Typical Thomas is another not out of things with a repeat of his latest Downpatrick second.
