Comment: Won a Sligo bumper last August but tailed off in three maiden hurdle starts since; may do better now handicapping but the assessor hasn't taken any chances.

13/2

Comment: Point winner who has steadily got the hang of things in three starts over timber, getting off the mark when making all in a Killarney maiden hurdle in May; opening mark is fair and she's less exposed than plenty here.

15/2

Comment: Improving with every run and came on from his reappearance with a maiden hurdle success at Killarney 13 days ago when justifying favouritism; handicapper has given him a chance and one to be interested in.

Comment: Off the mark over timber at Limerick over Christmas and got his head back in front in a beginners' in May; disappointing favourite over fences since but operating from a reduced hurdle mark here and not ruled out.

16/1

Comment: Went close in the Porterstown in December but has shown very little over fences or hurdles in five runs since; career low hurdle mark as a result but hard to have faith in.

Jockey: D E Mullins Trainer: Ms Margaret Mullins Age/Wt: 5/11-12 F: 11-P50 OR: 110

Comment: Last couple of wins have come over fences and operating from a lower hurdle rating but disappointing favourite in this sphere at Sligo earlier this month and others look more likely.

Dream In The Park

Jockey: C M Hogan Trainer: E McNamara Age/Wt: 8/11-11 F: P6201- OR: 109

16/1

Comment: Dual winner over timber in Britain in October 2022 and got off the mark over fences when gaining a first win for these connections at Limerick when last seen on St Stephen's Day; fair mark back in this sphere if fit after 216 days off but does need to prove he's as effective at this sort of distance.

Caesar Rock

Jockey: D J O'Keeffe Trainer: M F Morris Age/Wt: 9/11-9 F: F4P7-2 OR: 107

16/1

Comment: Sole win in 33 starts came in a novice hurdle at Wexford in April 2022 but arrives on the back of a close second in a Tipperary novice earlier this month; return to further is fine and could be well treated from his reduced hurdle mark back in this sphere.

Gabriel Ranger

Jockey: C M Quirke Trainer: Joseph G Murphy Age/Wt: 6/11-8 F: 3656-1 OR: 106

16/1

Comment: Scored from this mark over fences at Killarney in May and gave the impression a step back up in trip could be in his favour; this looks more competitive but not ruled out.

Folly Beach

Jockey: L A McKenna Trainer: M A Molloy Age/Wt: 7/11-7 F: 5PP-37 OR: 105

16/1

Comment: Only win came on the Flat in 2023; back to something like her best with a third at Tipperary on penultimate start but not as good at Killarney since and this is tough race to try and break the maiden tag.

Ahead Of The Posse

Jockey: E Staples Trainer: Gavin Cromwell Age/Wt: 8/11-9 F: 36-461 OR: 107

18/1

Comment: Got back on track with a claiming hurdle at Roscommon earlier this month, shaping like this sort of trip was worth another go; hasn't been the most reliable down the years but has run well here before and he has a workable mark.

20/1

Comment: Bounced back with a Downpatrick success over this trip 15 days ago; 5lb higher in a much deeper race so there's no doubt he'll need another career best.

28/1

Comment: Made promising start to his career; missed two years but got back in the winners' enclosure at Ballinrobe last summer; probably needed last month's return at Cartmel but doesn't look well treated on any recent form.
