Selected odds by:

Malinas Glory⁴⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: C Stone-Walsh⁽⁵⁾| T: A O'Grady| OR: 95

18/1

Fair maiden hurdler/chaser who was out of sorts when last seen under Rules last summer. However, he arrives here fit and in form from points, successful on latest outing (Feb. 25) and interesting what the market makes of him back over hurdles.

Form: 53-7P21

Getaway Master³²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: D Moloney⁽⁷⁾| T: Richard Daniels| OR: 93| C

10/3

7/1, career best when winning 18-runner handicap hurdle at this course (22.3f, heavy) 32 days ago, driven clear. Rider's claim off-sets a chunk of his subsequent rise in weights and one to consider with a repeat.

Form: 433251

Grace Faraday^h¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: J P O'Sullivan⁽³⁾| T: A McCann| OR: 93

7/2

Creditable second of 12 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at this course (16.2f, heavy) 18 days ago, ridden from home turn and keeping on. Claims with a repeat.

King Of Cong⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr D Allen⁽⁷⁾| T: T O'Brien| OR: 93

11/4

Thrice-raced maiden. 18/1, seventh of 10 in novice hurdle at Clonmel (16f, heavy) 56 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should have more to offer.

Form: 3697

Diamond Dollar¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: P Byrnes⁽⁵⁾| T: C Byrnes| OR: 92

8/1

18/1, eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.2f, heavy) 18 days ago, racing off the pace and never landing a blow. However, remains early days with him and this step up in trip could well help. One to note if market speaks in his favour.

Form: 007P08

Bossofthebus⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: R Deegan| T: Paul Tobin| OR: 90

22/1

Forecasts

King Of Cong (11/4), Getaway Master (10/3), Grace Faraday (7/2), Diamond Dollar (8/1), Blossom De Mai (10/1), How Decc (12/1), Fourleaf Shamrock (14/1), C'est Rien (14/1), Malinas Glory (18/1), Little Token (18/1), Beeverstown Place (20/1), Bossofthebus (22/1), Jonny Mansie (25/1), Champagne Rebel (40/1), Five Minutes More (40/1), Out Of The Park (100/1), Oscar Tonic (100/1)

GETAWAY MASTER could hardly have been more impressive when opening his account in fine style over further here 32 days ago and, with his rider's claim off-setting a fair chunk of his subsequent weight rise, another bold bid looks on the cards. Grace Faraday is also respected following her recent second, whilst Diamond Dollar and Malinas Glory are another pair to monitor in the betting for positive vibes.
