HIPOP DE LOIRE is difficult to oppose. Second on his sole previous effort over flights, the Willie Mullins-trained eight-year-old is the current favourite for the Ebor at York next month. A never-nearer fourth on his return to action in a Listed contest at Roscommon, it'll be interesting to see how he copes with this step up in trip. Son Of Anarchy is an obvious danger. The 118-rated six-year-old was a runner-up when last seen at Punchestown and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a place better now. A good winner of a bumper at Wexford, Soldiers World is an interesting contender on hurdling bow.
Willie Mullins holds a strong hand here with Gorvitho and HIPOP DE LOIRE. The former is forgiven his latest run which he needed and better judged on his debut effort where placed behind a useful rival who went on to place in the Martin Pipe. He may however find the ground on the fast side and his stablemate looks the solid option here. The selection was only narrowly denied at this meeting last year on his hurdle debut and proved he retained his ability with a solid Listed flat run this term. Given he was successful at this level on the flat when trained in Germany it is likely he has much more to offer in this discipline for his top stable. The greatest threat may come from the useful experienced dual purpose performer Zanndabad who went close in the Chester Cup last year and probably sets the standard in this sphere on his UK novice events on good ground which is key to him.

ARCTIC GALE should give a good account of himself in this competitive affair. While yet to win over flights, he registered a first chase success on his most recent outing at Tipperary. With a tongue-strap now deployed, it'll be disappointing if he's not involved towards the business end. Another six runners were successful when last seen, with both Affinity Rock and Nitty Gritty striking at Killarney. The pair start off now in handicap company and it'll come as no surprise if either manage to prevail. Two from two at Ballybrit, El Champo could make an impact at a big price, while others for the shortlist are Spinning Web, Ahead Of The Posse and the returning Dream In The Park.
ARCTIC GALE travelled strongly when a cosy chase winner last time and looks well treated back over the smaller obstacles here for shrewd connections. He had a fitness excuse when disappointing on his last run in this sphere but has progressed since and the good ground will be in his favour over this longer trip. Recent maiden winner Nitty Gritty is the obvious danger off what looks a lenient opening mark given how well the form of his penultimate run has been working out. He should relish this longer trip and is open to plenty of improvement as is Coastal World who caught the eye under tender handling on his reappearance in the UK. He's entitled to come on for that returning run and is potentially thrown in on his form prior to a lay off so should be a big threat here. If getting a run veteran The Little Yank would also be respected as he has been in excellent form over hurdles and fences of late off a much reduced mark.

A notoriously competitive affair, with the last winning favourite coming way back in 2013. The subject of much controversy when unseating at Wexford in May, it'll be fascinating to see how REDWOOD QUEEN fares on her first start for Cian Collins. The up and coming Co Meath based handler has acquired the services of leading amateur Rob James, who claims an invaluable 7lb. Second, fifth and ninth in last year's renewal, Miss Fourie (first time cheekpieces), Jolie Jewel and Enfranchise all warrant respect. Now in the care of Willie McCreery, the latter was sent off favourite 12 months ago and returns to flights for the first time since.
An open race where ENFRANCHISE is taken to continue her fine course record. She was a maiden hurdle winner at this meeting in 2023 and ran well in a strong flat handicap last year before proving she is a good as ever placing in Ireland and Germany at Group level in that discipline this summer. Returning to hurdling off a generous mark she can get the better of another pair of dual purpose performers in Fratas and Radar Ahead. The former has been consistent in defeat under positive rides this year so should enjoy the track while the latter made a mockery of her opening mark over hurdles last time and likely has more to offer judged on her flat form.

Starting off in handicap company, DOWN MEMORY LANE could prove a class above his rivals. This race has probably been the target for quite some time, with the step up in trip likely to play to his strengths. The selection is one of seven Gordon Elliott-trained representatives in the line-up, with his Three Card Brag another leading hope. The winner of the Galway Hurdle 12 months ago, it's easy to see why Nurburgring is the current market leader. The versatile five-year-old recently made the breakthrough over fences at Killarney and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up now. With Derek O'Connor an interesting jockey booking, Anyway warrants the utmost respect, while a case can be made for many others, including Mayo National winner Western Fold, Midlands National hero Amirite and the Emmet Mullins-trained Sea Music.
An open race as ever but the unexposed DOWN MEMORY LANE gets the narrow verdict. He brings in some strong Grade 1 novice form from last season despite being unsuited by the testing ground those days and is a likely improver now handicapping off a lenient mark up in trip on favourable good ground. Ashdale Bob is another possible improver after running well for a long way on his recent handicap debut back from a break. He should come on for that and is well treated on both his best hurdle form and his Graded chase win here last autumn. Joseph O'Brien holds a strong hand with dual purpose performers Nurburgring and Common Practice. The former landed the feature hurdle here last year before placing at Cheltenham and Royal Ascot this year in different disciplines. He's open to further improvement over fences if brushing up on his jumping. His stablemate has been in good form in both codes this year including taking a Graded contest in the spring and could find a bit more in the first time blinkers. Consistent staying chaser Amirite also has blinkers added and completes the list of dangers following a Midlands National victory last time.

MONT ST MICHEL has a dreadful draw in 21 but has strong form. It isn't ideal that he was used as a pace-maker for outstanding stablemate Kyprios in May but nonetheless wasn't beaten far in that Saval Beg Stakes and again ran well behind a capable winner at Killarney. He stays well and seems ground-versatile. Waterford Flow is vulnerable to capable types but possesses useful recent form, encounters ideal conditions and is dependable. Edelak is now tried in a first-time tongue-tie and blinkers and may bounce back from his latest effort.
The obvious pick here is MONT ST MICHEL who split a pair of useful dual purpose performers on unfavourable easy ground last time. He was probably a bit flattered by his previous Group run but a repeat of his last run should be enough to see him off the mark. Waterford Flow has proven consistent bar a Royal Ascot disappointment and looks the biggest danger given his versatility ground wise and experience edge. He can chase the selection home ahead of Edelak whose penultimate run is working out well. He's open to further improvement in first time blinkers and a tongue tie.

SUJET readily won a competitive premier handicap on Derby Weekend and might follow up, despite being 9lb higher. By Frankel and from a good family, he returned having been gelded after a 253-day layoff in June and scored in the manner of a progressive and capable type. Iron Fist finished six lengths behind the selection and while he met trouble in-running and raced quite keenly at the Curragh, scored subsequently at Killarney and should get involved. Far From Dandy has met some trouble in-running on his last two starts and he is closely matched with the consistent Ja'marr on their Leopardstown clash in June.
A tight contest where most of the field can be given a solid chance. MATHAN has some slight stamina concerns stepping back up in trip having failed to get home on his previous start at 1m but he looks too well handicapped to ignore. His 2025 form on varying ground has been franked emphatically and he's open to further improvement in the first time cheekpieces. If progressing again he can get the better of the improving Refreshment who should get his desired strong pace to aim at down in trip likely set by Iron Fist. That rival will need to settle better than last time in the first time hood but looks well treated returned to handicaps following an emphatic maiden win. Top weight First Wave was outclassed at Royal Ascot last time but is also a threat judged on his previous maiden win.
Game, out-battled runner up, took same contest last year, ran to form won the Conditions Hurdle at Cork over 3m by a head last time; consistent on sound surface in both codes; strong stayer; outside chance

FEUD is drawn wide in 16 but scored at last year's festival and ran encouragingly on his most recent run. A dual hurdle-winner last summer, he returned following 339 days off in early-July and while well enough held at Killarney, he nonetheless finished well from off the pace and will be better suited by today's drier ground. Another of last year's winners Shoda shaped reasonably well at Ballinrobe recently, while stablemate Light Up The Dark is something of a dark horse, having won two bumpers before landing a recent maiden but tries this longer Flat distance for the first time, on handicap debut.
Joseph O'Brien holds a strong hand here with Light Up The Dark and Shoda. The former is a dual bumper winner who was off the mark in this sphere last time and likely has more to offer now handicapping over further so holds strong claims. However his stablemate is the first string on jockey bookings and has plenty of mileage in her make based on her spring Graded hurdle form. She was poorly placed to challenge at a sharp track on her flat return but finished full of running and looks a likely improver now upped to 2m for the first time. Both of those hold solid claims but could be vulnerable to another dual purpose performer in the shape of FEUD who was a hurdles winner at this meeting last year beating a couple of next time out winners. He was unsuited by the steady pace and sharp track on his flat return but finished off his race well suggesting that this longer trip would be of benefit. If the first time cheekpieces can help him lay up early he should be thereabouts at the finish off what looks a generous mark based on his old UK flat form.
