Comment: Hasn't shown enough in four maiden hurdle runs so far and pedigree suggests he may need further than this; first-time cheekpieces applied on his handicap debut; others preferred.

In For The Night

Jockey: A P Kelly Trainer: Desmond McDonogh Age/Wt: 7/11-9 F: 1520P OR: 107

11/1

Comment: Opened account in 2m4f Gowran handicap (good) in October and equally good second at Fairyhouse following month; pulled up on soft at that venue when last seen but looks a big contender here with conditions to suit.

Comment: Sent off triple-figure odds for his first three maiden hurdles but caught the eye when seventh behind Ethical Diamond at Punchestown (2m4f) and was beaten only 3l at Thurles (2m) four weeks ago; shortlisted on handicap debut.

Comment: Won his maiden over 2m7f and was strong in the finish when third in 2m6f handicap at Ballinrobe (good); never involved at Cheltenham when last seen in November; his classy bumper form is by no means forgotten; player.

Comment: Came on from his reappearance at Limerick when third over 20.5f at Fairyhouse; second next time over 2m at Clonmel on handicap bow; ran worst race of his career on better ground at Wexford last month so conditions are a worry.

Comment: Some promise in maidens but ran a career-best on handicap debut when beaten 1l into third at Limerick (2m5f, heavy) in January; followed that with a third at Gowran (2m4f, soft) from same mark; drying ground the only niggle but 3m should suit.

Comment: Left all known form well behind when bolting up in Cork handicap hurdle for amateur riders (24.5f, good) by 20l two weeks ago; 13lb higher here and won't have the services of a claimer but is in rude health.

Comment: Won Punchestown handicap hurdle (19.5f, good to yielding) off 89 in May 2023; fell here over 2m4f on chasing debut off the back of a lengthy absence in January; shrewd yard and well treated if she can build on that.

Comment: 13-race maiden but her best efforts have come at around 3m, third of 20 at Galway in October and a close-up sixth of 18 at Tipperary a month later; inadequate test over 2m at Clonmel latest; better can be expected here.

Comment: Brought down early on debut at Galway when sent off the 2-1 favourite; ran a fine race second time up over this C&D in December, beaten 3.25l into second of 12 and has been off since; trip, track and ground all fine and he holds leading claims if ready to go after his break.
