AMEN KATE was an able bumper performer and should benefit from her recent hurdling debut. By a leading sire and out of a Grade 1-winning mare, the selection isn't the biggest but showed nice ability finishing behind two capable mares at Listowel in September. Holly Brook, a 115,000-pound purchase following her debut point-to-point win, was well held when contesting three bumpers during 2024 and, although she lacks a recent outing, may give the selection most to think about. Rainbow Connection has shown just mild promise.
AMEN KATE looks to hold all the aces in this mares' maiden hurdle. She improved on her bumper form when third in a Listowel maiden hurdle in a first-time hood and looks the one to beat. Also on the shortlist is Rainbow Connection, who improved on her hurdles debut when fourth at Gowran Park. Not to be overlooked is Holly Brook, from a yard with two wins in the last five renewals, she was a bit below form in a mares' bumper at Wexford when last seen in April and could need the run.

Having finished third in the novice handicap at the Cheltenham Festival, O'MOORE PARK displayed plenty of ability during last season's novice chase campaign. The eight-year-old subsequently finished a close-up second at that venue in April and didn't appear to stay an extended 3m4f distance at Sandown 10 days later, so he holds obvious claims in these calmer waters. Oscars Brother is rated 9lb inferior to the selection, but boasts a second-placed reappearance at Listowel last month and isn't taken lightly. Useful staying hurdler Win Some Lose Some makes his seasonal/chase bow, while Good N'Kind is also of interest debuting in this discipline.
O'MOORE PARK looks the best in this beginners chase. He was below form in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown when the race may have come too soon, but previously in good form. A first-time tongue-tiea could be helpful and he is the one to beat. Joining the shortlist is My Great Mate, who was made too much use of when fourth here last time and could do better over further on this ground. Zeeband is also worth consideration having been progressive around 2½m over hurdles last year and likely to improve with more chasing experience.
Needed the run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m6f here last time; returns after a short break; effective from 2m to 2 1/2m, acts on yielding and good ground; fairly treated on best form.
He has won two hurdle races and a chase from 2m 2f to 2m 3f on good and yielding - soft ground. Beaten 19l behind Bal Kauto at 16-1 when seventh of 20 on his latest outing in a hurdle race here over 2m 6f (good) in July.

LOW STYLE hasn't run in 259 days but ran well on handicap chase debut when last seen and remains nicely treated. His initial hurdling form was useful and he seemed to benefit from stepping up in distance at Navan in February. Barry Connell's charge races from just 2lb higher and could be the one to beat on his return. Vaureal produced a good effort off his current mark in a recent course handicap and will appreciate stepping back up in trip. Dream In The Park made an early error when finishing well held over hurdles here in July, but had previously scored at Limerick last Christmas and likes easy ground. Five-year-old Tell Nobody Nothin isn't ruled out either.
A tight handicap chase where it could be worth giving VAUREAL a chance. He was back to form when returning to fences, finishing second here last time and looks in fair order. Others to consider include Ballagh Star, who is on his last winning mark after scoring at Sligo and remains suited by this trip. Best of the rest may be Smallcraftwarning, who ran to form when runner-up at Punchestown.
Outclassed back on the Flat on his most recent start; ran a creditable race over fences in a Grade 3 before that. Effective up to 3m and best on a sound surface, but his mark looks stiff on recent efforts.
He has won three hurdle races and a chase from 2m 4f to 3m on good and soft ground, also won a flat race in July. Finished 19l behind Western Fold when sixth of 22 at 15-2 on his latest NH outing in a Grade 3 chase over this course and distance (good) in July.

BAL KAUTO is closely related to Kauto Star and has solid claims of achieving a four-timer. The selection's progression has been gradual due to his form dipping after an initial 2023 hat-trick, but the son of Balko has been in excellent form recently. Declan Queally's eight-year-old can cope with an 8lb hike for winning at Kilbeggan and is ridden by his 7lb claimer again. Ballybawn Belter ran well on her seasonal reappearance at Gowran Park earlier this month and should remain competitive, while Buddy One finished sixth in the Galway Plate but has plenty of weight.
A top-notch handicap chase where BAL KAUTO could be the one to beat. He travelled strongly and won comfortably at Kilbeggan last time, suggesting further improvement over staying trips. Another to note is Buddy One, who ran creditably in a Grade 3 chase before being outclassed back on the Flat and remains effective up to 3m on a sound surface. Third best could be Millforce, whose jumping let him down when finishing second at Fairyhouse but he looks nicely weighted and capable of better.
Poor over fences lately but had shown better form in novice hurdles before that. Blinkered for the first time and effective at around 2 1/2m on good ground; could bounce back over smaller obstacles.

I'LL SORT THAT proved a smart sort in bumpers with two wins to his name, including when beating Strong Link on very testing ground at Naas in Feburary, and impressed again when making a winning hurdle bow at Listowel last month. The Declan Queally-trained gelding made all to score in fine style and this step up in trip should suit. Point-to-point winner Ma Jacks Hill was placed a couple of times in the bumper sphere and opened his account under Rules in a Gowran maiden hurdle last time. Welonlyhavedone also won between the flags and landed the odds in a modest maiden hurdle here earlier this month.
I'LL SORT THAT sets the standard in this novice hurdle. He improved front-running when returning to hurdles, winning a maiden hurdle at Listowel over 2m by a wide margin last time and further progress is likely stepping up in trip. Another to consider is Welonlyhavedone, who took advantage of an easy opportunity when landing a maiden hurdle here over 2m1f and looks capable of better over this longer distance. Ma Jacks Hill could make up the three, having built on his bumper form with a tongue-tie to win a 2m maiden hurdle at Gowran Park, and he should also benefit from this longer trip.
Bit keen and below best under penalty when beaten 9l in a bumper over 2m here last time; had been in good form prior; off a short break; effective at 2m and acts on good ground; longer trip should suit now hurdling.

HE CAN'T DANCE was purchased for 300,000 pounds after winning a Monksgrange point-to-point last March and showed smart form when making winning bumper/Rules debut at Navan. He was subsequently placed in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown, as well as only fading in the closing stages of the Cheltenham Champion Bumper, and could develop into a useful novice over hurdles. Frankie John also scored between the flags and showed his liking for this track when landing a bumper at the Festival meeting. Moreover, the Denis Hogan-trained gelding has the benefit of a run over hurdles when second at Listowel last month. Doctor Steinberg beat reopposing runner-up Jisco Du Brem in a Ballinrobe bumper in May with ease and is another to consider.
HE CAN'T DANCE ticks plenty of boxes in this maiden hurdle. The yard has won the last two renewals of this race and he ran respectably when beaten in the Weatherbys Champion Bumper at Cheltenham ans is the class act. Others worth noting include Doctor Steinberg, who was a bit keen and below his best under a penalty when beaten here last time but had shown good prior form and should appreciate this longer trip. Frankie John makes up the three, having improved on his bumper form when runner-up at Listowel, and this step up in distance looks likely to suit him well.

THE NAGGER REIDY overcame a lengthy layoff when scoring on soft ground at Listowel last autumn and showed useful placed form earlier this year, including when third in an 18-runner handicap at Naas. It will be interesting to see if the market speaks in his favour following a summer break. Red Glory won at Tipperary in July and advertised his claims further when beating all bar Paul's Dream at Fairyhouse last time. Fierce Handay has shown promise in maidens and should progress following a recent outing at Gowran Park.
RED GLORY could be the one to be with here. He showed improved form in a first-time tongue-tie when beaten at Fairyhouse last time and has a chance of building on that effort. The Nagger Reidy, could also contend. He had every chance and ran to form when third at Naas in April but is off a break. Fierce Handay could be third best having looked ready for this step up in trip.

CHURCHFIELD ANNIE made a pleasing debut when third behind La Cote Fleurie at Tipperary at the start of the month. The penny seemed to just drop as she made headway in the closing stages and, with the benefit of that run, the Emmet Mullins-trained filly may prove difficult to beat. Susie Lenglen shaped well on debut when beating all bar favourite High Notions in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle recently, while How's Ellie represents the champion trainer and market support would be significant for the daughter of Jet Away. Alliteration also makes appeal on pedigree being out of a bumper-winning sister to Irish Grand National hero Niche Market.
CHURCHFIELD ANNIE could be the one who sets the standard in this bumper. She produced a promising debut when third, beaten 3l in a mares bumper at Tipperary and should build on that encouraging effort. Of interest too is Susie Lenglen, who made a pleasing debut when runner-up in a 2m4f maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse, almost overcoming greenness and a late mistake. She looks interesting dropping back in trip for this bumper. The shortlist also features How's Ellie, a Jet Away filly from a yard with three wins in the last ten renewals.
