Apple's Of Bresil
Won a good ground bumper at Sligo in July; tried to make all in a maiden hurdle here in August but faded out of it late on, beaten 7l into fourth; drying ground is in his favour here and this looks an easier race; leading claims.

Itsalladream
Locally trained; failed to win in three point-to-points but has shown an aptitude for hurdling; third, beaten similar distances on both starts under Rules in maiden hurdles at Roscommon (15.5f, yielding to soft) and Killarney (16.5f, good); minor place claims again.

Leave In Secret
Failed to complete in two point-to-points but consistent under Rules; decent runs in maiden hurdles on good ground at Sligo and Cork earlier this year; sound effort in 2m2f bumper here in August; fourth at Kilbeggan in another bumper last time out; place claims but wouldn't want rain.

100/1 |
Nothingtoseehere
Gatewood gelding out of an unraced Definite Article dam; yard not known for winning maiden hurdles; doesn't make much appeal on paper on hurdling debut and is best watched.

Olympy De Cerisy
First of two runners for yard; won a point-to-point on heavy last October (had a subsequent Ludlow novice hurdle winner 16l behind); makes hurdling debut after three bumper runs; second the last twice and the hood he wore behind Ballygunner Castle last time is discarded; could go well once the ground doesn't dry out.

Portcammon
Bumper winner in August 2023 at Roscommon (15.5f, good to yielding); off for a year before another good effort in a bumper here when beaten 5.75l into fourth on soft ground last month; top yard and should be well schooled for hurdling debut; dangerous to discount.

Rag N Bone
Placed in one of four starts in point-to-points; wore first time tongue tie (now discarded) for Rules debut in a Tipperary hunter chase (28-1) and unseated; today's trip a complete unknown and probably best watched on hurdling debut.

250/1 |
Storm Steps
Flat recruit; won four times on the level (best RPR 79) but beaten a long way in both hurdle runs to date at 100-1; will be of more interest when tackling handicaps.

The Mediator
Dual-purpose; 0-7 over hurdles; good effort over timber at Kilbeggan (2m, good to yielding) on Friday when third, beaten 4.25l; ran well on the Flat here behind Busselton in July and his previous hurdling experience could stand to him here; considered in first-time blinkers.

Way Down South
Point-to-point winner at the fifth attempt; beaten long distances at big prices both starts under Rules, including here over 2m5f; beaten 55l last time over 2m1f; can only watch for now.

Banner Boy
Idaho debutant; fifth foal; dam unraced sister to 2m3f-3m2f hurdle/chase winner Take Your Time, out of 2m4f-3m1f hurdle/chase winner; best watched on hurdling bow for yard that is 7/120 in maiden hurdles.

50/1 |
Desert Haven
Two 7f wins from seventeen starts on the Flat (best RPR 91); poor efforts in that sphere the last twice; cheekpieces worn last time are discarded; has ability but has to be question marks regarding his stamina for this sort of trip.

125/1 |
Mount Mandela
0-2 in point-to-points; beaten 13.5l in both bumpers, including one at this track; reportedly didn't like the soft ground at Sligo last time so the more the ground dries out the better; has ability but is probably best watched on hurdling debut.

Oh So Charming
Second runner for yard; 1m Flat winner in the UK for Grant Tuer; rated 105 over timber after a couple of decent efforts for Declan Queally in maidens; yard probably has stronger claims with Olympy De Cerisy but he could outrun his likely odds.

Stily
Pulled up sole start in point-to-points on heavy ground; is a half-brother to a three-time winner for this yard but is probably more of a long term project; others preferred on hurdling debut.

Elafonisi
Modest form when placed in a couple of point-to-points; makes hurdling debut for in-form yard; worth a market check.

Willwetakeher
Pulled up in sole point-to-point; 150-1 for hurdling debut and beaten 78l; tongue tie worn that day is retained; looks an unlikely winner.

Between Friends
Milan filly; first foal; dam useful bumper/2m3f-3m hurdle winner, half-sister to smart bumper and 2m-3m hurdle/chase winner Regal Encore, out of 3m hurdle winner; nicely bred debutante in good hands and worth a market check.

|
125/1 |
Florida Taiga
Flat recruit; 0-13 in that sphere (best RPR 64); related to a 2m hurdle winner but probably best watched on first start over timber.

Three Tribes
First reserve; hooded for debut and was beaten 120l at 80-1; hard to fancy after that effort.

Getaway Blondie
Second reserve; tailed off in a bumper; pulled up only start over hurdles; blinkers go on but he is impossible to make a case for.

Third reserve; pulled up in a point-to-point; last of 18 here beaten 122l on hurdling debut over 2m5f; down in trip but is difficult to fancy.
