Selected odds by:

Eternal Echo^h²²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr H C Swan| T: G Elliott| D

3/1

Hooded, won 4-runner bumper at Naas (15.7f, good to soft, 16/5) on NH debut 22 days ago. More needed here under a penalty.

Form: 1

Chez Fred⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr D Doyle⁽⁷⁾| T: Liz Doyle

13/2

Once-raced maiden. Pulled up in bumper at Naas (16f, heavy, 7/2) on NH debut 56 days ago. The testing conditons may have been against him there and he's worth another chance.

Form: P

Eastern Blue Bird³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: H E Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Fahy

50/1

Once-raced maiden. 16/1, tailed-off last of 6 to Carrigmoorna Beech in bumper at Gowran (16f, heavy) on NH debut 38 days ago.

Form: 6

Four Wise Poets

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr J H Williamson⁽⁷⁾| T: W J Burke

16/1

€9,000 3-y-o, Poet's Word gelding. Dam unraced. Entitled to come on for the run.

Form:

Oneinthewell

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: T Cooper

9/4

Mastercraftsman gelding. Yard boasts a healthy strike rate in bumpers and this one needs close attention in the betting, with Patrick Mullins booked.

Form:

Quinta Brigada

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr R W Barron⁽⁵⁾| T: Colm Ryan

5/2

€13,000 3-y-o, Vadamos gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Mercury Lane. Probably best watched on debut.

Form:

Ullr

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: S D Greene⁽⁷⁾| T: R Donohoe

66/1

Snow Sky gelding. Dam unraced from family of Epsom Oaks winner Eswarah. Doesn't have the look of a first-time-out winner on paper.

Form:

Wigwammer

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: T E O'Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: Gerard O'Leary

11/1

New Bay gelding. Closely related to very smart 7.5f-1¼m winner Marquisat and half-brother to 2 winners. Likely to be better for the experience.

Form:

Mercurial Sea²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: F Brickley⁽⁷⁾| T: N Slevin

50/1

Once-raced maiden. 125/1 and hooded, fell in juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) on NH debut 25 days ago. Makes bumpers debut.

Form: F

Forecasts

Carrigmoorna Beech (10/11), Oneinthewell (9/4), Quinta Brigada (5/2), Eternal Echo (3/1), Chez Fred (13/2), Wigwammer (11/1), Four Wise Poets (16/1), Eastern Blue Bird (50/1), Mercurial Sea (50/1), Ullr (66/1)

It was hard not to be impressed by the way CARRIGMOORNA BEECH went about her business when making a winning debut at Gowran and she will prove hard to beat. Given Thomas Cooper's record in bumpers and with Patrick Mullins an eye-catching booking, Oneinthewell is one to be interested in, while Naas winner Eternal Echo is best of the rest.
