Useful chaser. 9/2, creditable third of 14 in C&D novice chase (soft) 23 days ago. This lightly-raced 7-y-o has to be high on the shortlist.
|
Lightly-raced winner under Rules. Winner of a Gowran handicap hurdle (24.3f, heavy, 11/4) 23 days ago. Will need to improve a chunk for the switch to fences if he's to make a successful debut in this sphere.
|
Twice-raced maiden under Rules. Readily passed over.
|
Useful hurdler. Fifth of 12 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (17.2f, soft, 40/1) on debut over fences 35 days ago, finishing with running left. That was his first run following almost 2 years off, so he's entitled to come on for it.
|
Useful hurdler. 10/1, tenth of 12 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (17.2f, soft) on debut over fences 35 days ago. Doesn't appear to be the stable No 1 judged on jockey bookings.
|
Useful chaser. 40/1, fourth of 12 in novice chase at Naas (20.1f, good to soft) on debut over fences 61 days ago, not knocked about. Paul Townend prefers Blizzard of Oz.
|
Modest chaser. 150/1 and hooded for 1st time, sixth of 9 in novice chase at Down Royal (20.6f, good to soft) 51 days ago. Opposable.
|
Useful hurdler. Running creditably when falling in novice chase (7/1) at Fairyhouse (21.5f, soft) 45 days ago, looking sure to be placed. Passed over by Paul Townend but will surely be involved in the finish, granted a clear round.
|
Fair hurdler. Eleventh of 18 in novice chase (125/1) at Navan (20.7f, soft) on debut over fences 70 days ago.
|
Useful hurdler. Last of 4 in handicap chase at Ayr (16.5f, soft, 6/1) 26 days ago. Yard may have a stronger chance here with What's Up Darling.
|
Promising individual. Useful winner over hurdles. Creditable third of 15 in novice chase at Thurles (16f, good, 11/2) 9 days ago, sticking to task. Key player with improvement on the cards.

Forecasts
Blizzard Of Oz (11/10), What's Up Darling (7/2), Harry Des Ongrais (8/1), Dancingondaceiling (10/1), Lombron (11/1), O'Moore Park (11/1), Lisnagar Fortune (16/1), Western Fold (20/1), Three In A Row (125/1), Make The Plan (150/1), Getaway King (200/1)
HARRY DES ONGRAIS shaped with plenty of encouragement when fifth on his chase debut over an inadequate trip at Fairyhouse, an effort that was all the more meritorious considering that it was his first outing on the back of a 21-month absence. He shades preference ahead of Blizzard of Oz and What's Up Darling.
