Brave Fortune⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: J J Doyle| T: P M J Doyle

1/1

3/1, wasn't disgraced after 4 months off when third of 11 in maiden hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft) just over 6 weeks ago, inadequate test. Sets a good standard back up in trip.

Form: 1532-63

Charlie's Dilemma³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: B W Harvey| T: J C McConnell

10/3

Typically gave his running despite being unsuited by the emphasis on speed when second of 14 in maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.5f, good, 11/2) 31 days ago.

Form: 3-24322

Kilheffernan²¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Niall Moore⁽⁷⁾| T: M A Gunn

100/1

Well-beaten fifth of 9 in maiden hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy, 50/1) when last seen 7 months ago. Looks one for handicaps after this.

Form: 7/805-

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: E Walsh| T: M Winters

200/1

No impact in 3 maiden hurdles last month.

Master Of The Sums¹⁵⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: M J M O'Sullivan| T: E M O'Sullivan

25/1

Winning pointer. 50/1, shaped like a stayer when fifth of 11 in maiden hurdle at Listowel (20.4f, good) on NH debut back in June.

Form: 5U1-65

Mega Speculator⁸³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: M Hamill| T: M A Gunn

Form: PP/PP0-0

Rut Daniels^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: R P Treacy| T: D H Kelly

40/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, ran to a similar level as on hurdling bow after 3 months off when fifth of 7 in maiden hurdle at this course (16.6f, good to soft, 20/1) 2 weeks ago.

Form: 465

Ad Caelum¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: D E Mullins| T: J P Ryan| OR: 95

13/2

7/1, made the frame but failed to repeat her previous effort when fourth of 15 in maiden hurdle at this course (19.5f, good to soft) 2 weeks ago.

Form: 62734

Lady Rose Hackett¹⁷⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: D J O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead

10/3

Winning pointer who was mid-field on sole start in bumpers and ran to a fair level sent hurdling after 12 weeks off when third of 16 in maiden at Tipperary (16f, good to soft, 8/1) 6 months ago. Likely to improve, she should be bang there for her in-form yard.

Form: 15-3

Forecasts

Brave Fortune (1/1), Lady Rose Hackett (10/3), Charlie's Dilemma (10/3), Ad Caelum (13/2), Champagne Avenue (10/1), Master Of The Sums (25/1), Rut Daniels (40/1), Kilheffernan (100/1), Mega Speculator (200/1), Like A Bumblebee (200/1)

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal, LADY ROSE HACKETT selected to build on her hurdling-debut third at Tipperary when last seen 6 months ago for her in-form yard. Brave Fortune sets a fairly useful standard on her form towards the backend of last season, so he looks the obvious danger, with Charlie's Dilemma and Ad Caelum taken to fight out third spot.
