Won a bumper in 2023 but form has declined since, falling when weakening in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal (6/1) 92 days ago. Needs to recapture earlier promise to be competitive.

6/1
Showed fair form in chases, finishing third of 6 at Down Royal (6/4) 92 days ago when taking keen hold and tiring late. May benefit from this shorter trip on hurdle debut.

3/1
Failed to repeat Punchestown promise when fourth of 16 in a maiden hurdle here in July. Fifth of 6 in a novice hurdle at Ballinrobe 14 days ago, ridden more patiently than usual and didn't pick up as well as seemed likely (hung right/one paced late on). Still remains of interest in this company.

Offered little in recent hurdle starts, pulled up when mid-field at Sligo (12/1) 84 days ago after jumping awkwardly and losing place after the third. First-time cheekpieces applied today and they need to spark an improvement.

Retirement Plan gelding. Dam unraced. Six-year-old having first start and looks likely to be an outsider.

Modest bumper form and could only match that when finishing 4th of 14 in maiden hurdle over 19f at Kilbeggan (25/1) 11 days ago. Early days but has improvement to find.

Maiden in both codes, finished 8th of 15 in maiden hurdle at Cork (150/1) 25 days ago, always in mid-division. Looks one for handicaps.

Runner-up sole start in points (May 18), finished ninth of 15 in maiden hurdle at Cork (33/1) 25 days ago, never threatened. Probably one for the longer term.

Fairly useful maiden on Flat. Needed the experience on hurdles bow and will need to take a significant step forward on second start for new connections.

9/4
4-year-old making just second career start. Finished second of 16 in maiden hurdle at this course (33/1) 29 days ago, exceeding expectations and pulling clear of the remainder when headed in the final furlong. Major player in this maiden hurdle contest.

13/2
Improved earlier this year with two 4th-place finishes in hurdles before regressing when 8th of 18 in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel (5/1) 60 days ago, not getting the best of starts. Hood removed for this assignment following a break and capable of being in the mix if returning to previous form.

Still very much in need of the experience on second start when twelfth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (300/1) 11 days ago, raced off the pace and jumped left. Has plenty to find.

Little impact in two starts, finishing tailed off when eighth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Bellewstown (50/1) 31 days ago. Has looked limited on early evidence.

Affinisea filly. €2,000 5-y-o. Winning pointer, last of 4 finishers last time (Apr 21). Five-year-old filly, half-sister to bumper winner/modest hurdler Jukebox Annie. Wears tongue tie on debut for decent yard and is worth a market check.

One standout effort in bumpers before unseating rider at first hurdle in 9-runner hurdle at Perth (17/2) 33 days ago. Remains to be seen if she can improve.

WE'RE BACK AGAIN exceeded expectations when finishing second at this course on debut, pulling clear of the remainder when headed in the final furlong, and he's taken to go one better in this maiden hurdle. Ned In The Park ran well to finish third at Punchestown in June and would be dangerous if recapturing similar form here, while Yosemite Gold has been given a break following a disappointing effort at Clonmel and ought to be more competitive.
