18/1 |
Airds Moss
One of two runners for yard; showed improved form on his second point start in October when a close third at Umma House; half-brother to a couple of decent jumps winners; could run well.

Ajp Falco
Second runner for yard; beaten 28l on debut at Fairyhouse back in November; will need to improve plenty.

Barnahash Prince
Third foal; half-brother to bumper/2m4f hurdle winner Barnahash Primrose; dam bumper/2m6f Grade 3 hurdle winner, half-sister to bumper/hurdle winners Brackenmoss (2m) and Ask The Gatherer (2m3f-2m5f); useful pedigree and worth a market look on debut for a local yard.

80/1 |
Bobs House
Tailed-off on Thurles bumper debut at 150/1; not a difficult decision to look elsewhere.

- Neil Corkery / T O'Connor

|
|
150/1 |
Cloghoula More
First foal; dam 2m hurdle winner, half-sister to useful winners Strike Back (bumper and 2m-2m3f hurdle/chase) and Beef To The Heels (2m hurdle); not a bad pedigree and could run respectably on debut.

- Ellis Redding
- Mr D G Lavery / G P Cromwell
|
|
|
3/1 |
Ellis Redding
Comfortably beat a runner from this yard (handicap hurdle winner since off 89) to take a Punchestown point in February; comes from a decent damline and one to consider on bumper debut.

- Conor Smithers / M Brassil

7/1 |
Gonewild
Started at 100/1 but ran with credit in a high quality Leopardstown maiden hurdle on debut at Christmas; with improvement to come he should be more competitive in this sphere; tongue-tie on.

- Lemmy Caution
- Paddy Cleary / G Elliott

|
17/2 |
Lemmy Caution
Point winner last year was sold for 250,000GBP afterwards; decent efforts in three bumpers in varying ground conditions but hasn't progressed in that time; needs to do more.

- Mr Hugh Lillingston / J & T Kiely

40/1 |
Line Speed
The best of three bumper runs was when beaten 13l at Limerick on second start; questions after being tailed-off at Gowran since; tongue-tie added.

14/1 |
Long Goodbye
Not beaten far on Thurles debut but came up against a quality rival (since fourth in Champion Bumper) when beaten 18l at Down Royal; there is unlikely to be a rival of that calibre in this field so should get closer.

- Lucky Vick
- Mr L M Kelleher / G Kelleher

50/1 |
Lucky Vick
Wore a hood but raced keenly when beaten 32l on debut at Thurles; the headgear is retained but has to improve plenty.

- Mr E P O'Brien / P Fenton

6/1 |
Ludus Magnus
Respectable efforts but still soundly beaten in bumpers at Punchestown and Naas; this is less competitive but still has to do more.

- Oh The Darsi Boy
- Mr E J Daly / Joseph M Daly
|

80/1 |
Oh The Darsi Boy
First foal; dam point winner; sire is capable of getting useful winners; hood on for debut; best watched.

12/1 |
Tazman Dan
Improved nicely from bumper debut to be beaten only 11l at Wexford last time; needs to take another decent step forward to win but likely to be involved.
|

- Tiger Twins
- Conor Clarke / E Mccarthy

|
14/1 |
Tiger Twins
Soundly beaten on sole bumper start at Listowel last year but better efforts in two maiden hurdles since; has to continue that progress back to this sphere.
|

- Too Hot To Trot
- Mr Alan O'Sullivan / H De Bromhead
|
|
|
11/2 |
Too Hot To Trot
Just denied in a Ballindenisk point on debut in November and moved to this top yard since; the jockey who rode him on that occasion stays aboard; one to consider, especially if strong in the market.

- Harry's Diamond
- Miss J Townend / W P Mullins

|
|
7/2 |
Harry's Diamond
Seventh foal; sister to useful 2m4f/2m5f hurdle winner Built By Ballymore, half-sister to winners Dancing On My Own (smart 2m/2m1f hurdle/chase) and You Raised Me Up (useful bumper and 2m/2m3f hurdle); dam useful bumper and 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner; well-bred sort from the champion trainer so greatly respected on debut.

Ben Sawborne
Fifth foal; dam French 2m3f Listed hurdle winner, half-sister to winners Gaelic Ocean (useful French 2m1f-2m2f hurdle/chase) and Great Jane (2m1f/2m5f chase; dam of high-class French jumper Galop Marin); cost E22,000 as a 3yo; worth a check in the market for a local yard.
