Comment: Decent chaser at his best, Grade 3 winner for Joseph O'Brien 2021 and won a competitive handicap for Gordon Elliott in 2023; lost form, and has failed to retrieve it for this stable; well beaten in a race in this grade in January; could feature with the benefit of a recent run over fences, since he has a light weight further reduced by a 7lb claim.

Comment: Better chaser than hurdler; gained back-to-back chase wins in a Down Royal novice event and a Wexford handicap in March/April, both over just short of 2m4f; in contrast, pulled up in competitive handicaps at the Punchestown festival and Killarney; 1-12 over hurdles, win gained in a 2m5f maiden at Galway.

Comment: Grade 2 novice hurdle winner in 2021; hit form last spring winning conditions chases at Down Royal (2m4f) and Wexford (2m); chase form deteriorated last season and he was pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Naas in March; retains a high hurdles rating that gives him a chance in theory but looks risky

Comment: Ran a nice race on hurdles debut at Ballinrobe (2m1f, good) in April when a 4l third of 13; hasn't built on that in two runs since and well held at Listowel latest; others appeal more.

Comment: Pour Moi mare is a fifth foal; half-sister to point winner Givemylovetorose; dam point winner, half-sister to bumper/2m6f-3m3f hurdle winner Rosarian, out of 2m-2m4f hurdle winning half-sister to useful jumpers Eau De Cologne and Beachy Head; market should reveal expectations on debut.

Jumble Light

Jockey: P J O'Hanlon Trainer: Mark Michael McNiff Age/Wt: 6/11-12 F: 448-

22/1

Comment: One of two for local stable; best run for former yard in a Tipperary bumper (2m2f, yielding) last year; not disgraced on debut for this local yard in a 15.5f Kilbeggan maiden hurdle in April; this stiffer test could suit; may outrun likely odds.

Comment: Showed ability on the Flat for Michael Grassick, albeit at a very modest level; beaten 15.5l on stable and hurdles bow at this venue (2m2f, good) last month when 16-1; local yard respected here but soft ground would be a worry.

Comment: Showed nothing in a point-to-point and first maiden hurdle; 200-1 but ran much better than those odds when a 12l fourth at Listowel latest (16.5f, good); place chance if building on that but soft ground would be an unknown (ran poorly on yielding).

Comment: Local hope; improved from run behind Our Zebo at Tramore when staying strongly for C&D win in first-time tongue-tie four weeks ago; up 9lb but rider's 7lb claim will help; fair chance he can reverse previous form with Our Zebo.

Comment: Fitting of blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) and better ground has brought about significant improvement; second to a clear winner at Downpatrick and ran away with 11-runner Tramore contest (Ilbdare beaten almost 15l in third); defied 12lb rise with Downpatrick success; up another 10lb, obvious chance all the same

Comment: Half-sister to the Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Al Boum Photo; found one too good after being involved in a couple of bumping incidents when odds-on for a seven-runner Galway bumper on debut last October; winner scored on merit, but there was a 10l gap to the third who won her next start by a big margin; should be more mature now.

Comment: Half-sister to seven winners, made a winning debut in a maiden at Farmaclaffley in February; looked a nice prospect when keeping on into fourth in a 16-runner mares' bumper at the Easter meeting at Fairyhouse; this race may not be as strong; leading contender, any easing of the ground would help.
