Completed a hat-trick at Sligo in August and improved again stepping back into novice company when third in 7-runner event at Listowel (20f) 3 weeks ago. Has solid claims.

9/2
C&D winner in April who ran about as well as could be expected when fifth of 7 in novice hurdle at Listowel (20f, good to soft, 13/2) 21 days ago, unsuited by the way the race developed. Can make presence felt.

Confirmed previous promise when off the mark in 6-runner maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good to firm) 69 days ago. Faces a much stiffer task here, however.

Justified support when registering a third hurdle success in 17-runner handicap at Listowel (20f, good to soft) 23 days ago, readily. Yard in good form and ought to go well again.

Improved to win 13-runner handicap at Roscommon (12.2f, soft, 12/1) 5 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Fairly useful hurdler, successful here in April but below form on last hurdle outing.

Fair hurdler who flying too high in Joe Mac Novices' Hurdle (20/1) at Tipperary (16.1f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. This more suitable.

BALLYKINLAR boasts a progressive profile and looks the one to be with on these terms. Shadow Paddy and Carrigg Island are considered the main threats.
