A Snow White Park⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny Mullins| T: Ms M Mullins| OR: 105

12/1

Winner on debut at Ballinrobe in May. Fifth of 6 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Downpatrick (17.3f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Must improve but still early days and longer trip should help.

Form: F1685

Fool Me Once^p²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 104

12/1

Respectable tenth of 17 in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Listowel (16f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Should be competitive back up in trip.

Form: 4-25430

Garnetot^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 105

15/2

Fair form when hooded both starts over hurdles in France for N. George & A. Zetterholm. Best run for current yard when second of 12 in a novice hurdle at Clonmel (20.2f, good to soft) 17 days ago, finding only a less exposed rival too good. Could be more to come now handicapping.

Form: 66-0562

Welluknow²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Daniel King| T: M A Molloy| OR: 104

4/1

Has shown promise in maiden hurdles and should be sharper for her reappearance when third of 16 in a novice hurdle at Navan (19f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Opening mark looks fair and entitled to take a step forward on handicap hurdle debut.

Form: 66-3

Complete Fiction^p⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Peter Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Fahey| OR: 103

28/1

Fairly useful on Flat at best but hasn't matched that form over hurdles, finishing sixth of 12 in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good) 8 days ago. Will need to improve for the step up in trip.

Form: 2-05606

Tomas O Maille²³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Phillip Enright| T: M Flannery| OR: 102

25/1

Winner at Ballinrobe in April but has lost his form of late, twelfth of 16 in a handicap hurdle (22/1) at Listowel (18f, good to soft) 23 days ago. May need further respite from the handicapper.

Form: 1-42060

Tir Og³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Calum Hogan⁽⁷⁾| T: E Seymour| OR: 102

4/1

Has proved a different proposition for the switch to front-running tactics. winning back-to-back races around 17.5f at Sligo and Downpatrick in recent months. Steps back up in trip and could go well in hat-trick bid if able to get her own way in front.

Form: F-28511

Teenage Kiss⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Charlie O'Dwyer⁽⁵⁾| T: C O'Dwyer| OR: 100

12/1

Improved form when third on handicap debut at Wexford (fourth a subsequent winner) but did run quite so well over the same C&D when seventh of 14 (20.4f) 51 days ago. Likely worth another chance following a short break.

Form: 28-4737

Cahirdown Boy^t²³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-6| J: Eoin Staples⁽⁷⁾| T: E McNamara| OR: 98| C| D

15/2

Course winner representing yard who won this race last year. Respectable eighth of 16 in handicap chase (20/1) at Listowel (19.4f, good to soft) 23 days ago, shaping as if better for the run after 9 months off. Makes appeal off a 10 lb lower hurdles mark.

Form: 2155P-8

Zaryagle¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Dylan Robinson| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 91

50/1

Never landed a blow on handicap debut when sixth of 11 in a handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft) 12 days ago. Eased 3 lb but will need to improve for the longer trip.

Form: 60596

Little Boy Sivola^p1²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Simon Torrens| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 90

33/1

Ran poorly on handicap debut when eleventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (20.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 20 days ago, slowly away and went with little fluency. Cheekpieces on first time but has plenty to find.

Form: 0-7090

Anysignofhim¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: L Quinlan| T: R Hackett| OR: 86

8/1

Placed in a handicap at Ballinrobe over the summer and was in the process of running well when falling in a claiming hurdle at Clonmel (20.2f, good to soft, 25/1) 17 days ago. Ought to be competitive back in a handicap if none the worse for that fall.

Form: 87-P35F

Midleton Rare^t1²²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Sam Ewing| T: Ian Donoghue| OR: 85

5/1

Bumper winner and placed in a maiden hurdle for previous connections but struggled in handicaps last season. On a career-low mark (with first time tongue strap fitted) and has joined a yard who have a good record with new recruits. Could be interesting if the market speaks in his favour.

Forecasts

Tir Og (4/1), Welluknow (4/1), Midleton Rare (5/1), Cahirdown Boy (15/2), Garnetot (15/2), Anysignofhim (8/1), Fool Me Once (12/1), Teenage Kiss (12/1), A Snow White Park (12/1), Angelsworknovrtime (16/1), Tomas O Maille (25/1), Complete Fiction (28/1), Little Boy Sivola (33/1), Zaryagle (50/1)

In a competitive handicap, CAHIRDOWN BOY looks most interesting returning to hurdles (off a 10 lb lower mark) for stable who saddled the first two home in this race last year. Midleton Rare has joined a yard who has a fine record with new recruits and he's one to monitor for support, while Tir Og has been transformed by front-running tactics, winning her last two starts impressively and may have more to offer if allowed to dictate. Teenage Kicks and Welluknow complete the shortlist.
