A moderate contest and the locally-trained MISS DONNA might be good enough to score under her experienced amateur rider. She was well held in a bumper last time but her fifth in a maiden hurdle at Wexford was a decent run in the context of this race and that form has been working out reasonably well. Gentle Annie wasn't far behind a subsequent maiden winner when fifth at Ballinrobe and she has claims on that form. Anything that Michael Kenneally rides at present is worth a second look and the in-form 7lb claimer has a chance on Maxicourt, who has run respectably in a couple of bumpers.
MISS DONNA came 5th on her racecourse debut, which was also her hurdle debut back in August at Wexford. She has since finished down the field in a large field bumper at Navan when relatively well beaten. She comes into Maiden hurdle company once again, and with a few runs under her belt, and this being a pretty poor field in truth, she can get her head in front here for the first time in her short career so far. Gentle Annie is the nearest rival here, with a similar profile to Miss Donna; she came 5th on her hurdle debut and has since come down in the field when running again. With those runs under her belt, she is sure to go close here but might have to settle for a place finish. And Maxicourt has more experience compared to the rest; he can put that to good use here and fill the places for connections.

On his second run back having been sidelined for nearly two years, ROCK YA BOY YA bolted up at Killarney on Sunday and it's no surprise that Francis Casey brings him out again quickly because he is 6lb well in under a penalty. He hasn't run at this unique track before but has performed well at Kilbeggan which is a pretty sharp circuit as well. Stoneyford Lady wasn't beaten far at Down Royal and is now tried in headgear. Kilbarry Ce Ce is coming down the ratings and was second in a C&D maiden last season.
Last time out winner ROCK YA BOY YA landed that contest after having just his 2nd run since being off the track for almost two years. Clearly still having plenty of ability in the locker and love for the game, he can back that effort up and make it back-to-back wins for the very first time in his career. He was a very easy 8-length or so winner of the Killarney handicap last time out, and with a 13 lb raise in the weights to deal with here, he can go in again given the form he has shown since being off the track. Port Rashid has won over hurdles 3 times in his life; granted, his level of form has not been great recently, he has crept down to a potentially nice mark, and he can utilise that here by landing in the place money. And Angelsworknovrtime was 2nd back in July; if she can replicate that effort here, then she is bound to run well, but she might have to settle with another placed finish on her CV.

VENUSIENNE was runner-up in a Listed hurdle at Auteuil on her only start in France and didn't run too badly when a 33/1 chance for the Dawn Run at the Cheltenham festival. Pulled up in a Grade 1 on deep ground when last seen at Fairyhouse in April, the daughter of Authorized takes a huge drop in class here and is fitted with a hood for the first time. Stablemate Kom Tu Voudras, who wears a tongue-tie for the first time and was placed on the Flat in France, was also pulled up in that same Fairyhouse Grade 1. Atlantic City, third on her last four starts over hurdles, has solid place claims again.
VENUSIENNE finished 2nd in a Listed contest on her only run back in France; she was then pitched straight into Grade 2 company on her debut for Willie Mullins at the Cheltenham Festival in March, where she came 16th in the Mares Novices Hurdle. She pulled up in a Grade 1 contest next time out; when finding things a little too tricky that day, she dropped into maiden company for the very first time for new connections, and with Paul Townend booked to ride, this looks like the perfect opportunity for her to get off the mark in Ireland. Stablemate Kom Tu Voudras was also seen pulling up in that Grade 1 at Fairyhouse, 3rd on her only start in France, which was a bumper contest; she is sure to go well here, having just her 2nd run for the Mullins yard. She can run well but might have to settle for a 2nd place finish behind her stablemate with the yard's number 1 jockey onboard. And Atlantic City has plenty of experience at this sort of level; she will no doubt run her usual good race but might find it tricky to pass the two Closutton runners.
Well treated on hurdle form and did it readily when landing a handicap by 4 1/4l off 110 over 2m6f here last time. Consistent stayer on good ground over hurdles and fences, worth returning to 3m after a short break.
Winner of two hurdle races and three chases from 2m 4f to 3m on good and good - yielding ground. Won on his latest outing in a chase when 7-2fav here over 2m 6f (good) in August, beating Arrycan by 4 1/2l.

Tullyveery Lad has won over hurdles and fences around here and comes into the race in good form, while Silent Selector had a recent winner back in second when landing a course and distance contest in August. The vote, though, goes to FRONT DOOR FAMOUS, who could be on a reasonable mark for his handicap debut. Inthenickoftime was a facile winner over fences at Galway on Tuesday and would be of huge interest if attempting to follow up off his lower hurdles mark.
TULLYVEERY LAD was a nice winner of a handicap chase at this venue back in August; coming into this after a short break and reverting back over the smaller obstacles should pose no threats, as he is a two-time winner over hurdles previously. A winner over hurdles at this venue last August, he holds decent course form and might be hard to peg here now after getting his head back in front last time out. 6 lbs lower in the weights over hurdles, he is sure to go well here once again. Inthenickoftime won for the first time over fences last time out when landing a handicap chase by 6 lengths at Galway; now coming back over hurdles, he is sure to go well once again. A previous winner over the smaller obstacles, he is also in good form and can land a blow in this race. And Brilliant Light has placed 3rd twice in his last three runs; another bold run is expected here, but he might have to settle with filling the places once again.
Outpaced and may have found the ground a bit quick when finishing down the field in a handicap chase over 2m1f at Killarney last time; probably prefers some give underfoot.
Successful in a hurdle race and a chase at 1m 7f and 2m on yielding and heavy ground. Well beaten at 12-1 behind Embittered when 9th of 10 on his latest outing in a chase at Killarney over 2m 1f (good) in August.

A point-to-point winner, LADY ROSE HACKETT hasn't yet scored over hurdles but could be worth chancing after posting an encouraging second to the veteran Itsalonglongroad over C&D on her chasing debut at the August festival. A dual track-and-trip winner, the latter commands respect, despite lacking the scope held by Henry de Bromhead's mare, who can come out best in the rematch. Sayitfirst beat a solid yardstick over an extended 2m1f at Sligo and is likely to be in the mix. Dual-chase winner May Call You Back has won over hurdles around here and also enters calculations.
Point winner LADY ROSE HACKETT is yet to win under rules, but connections have wasted no time in getting her over fences, which seems to be a smart move given the fact she came 2nd on her chase debut at this venue last time out. She was sent off as the market leader that day, so there was clear confidence going into her first run over the larger obstacles, and she was not that far beaten in the end by a horse who has almost 40 runs over fences. She would have learnt plenty from that, and given the fact she won on her only point start, a life over fences looks to be the way forward for the Henry De Bromhead runner. May Call You Back hails from a powerful yard, and she does have 7 runs under her belt over fences; a winner back in July, she then came 2nd when running over hurdles at this venue last time out. Back over fences, she will no doubt run well here and push the field all the way to the line. And Takarengo is yet to win in 8 starts over fences but has run well at this venue in the past and can land another place finish here in this.

JUKE BOX ROCK caught the eye when travelling well for a long way in a Navan handicap hurdle last month. The runner-up on that occasion, which was his second start after a lay-off, Gavin Cromwell's grey can step forward if handling the undulations on his chasing debut. Mullanour, a point-to-point winner, was fancied in the betting when a faller on his chasing debut here in May, while Figurehead ran well at Downpatrick on what was only his second start over fences. Fellow chasing newcomer, Kells Priory, had a peak rating of 109 over hurdles and shouldn't be ruled out in this company.
Although NORTH MOON did not particularly show much over hurdles last season, he hails from an incredibly powerful yard, and they have wasted no time in getting him over a fence. Rated 100 over hurdles, that rating alone could be enough to suggest he is sure to go well on his chase debut here. Given his size and stature, he is the sort to really progress now jumping over a fence, and any market support before the off would be a huge indicator of how well connections think he could go in this. His best run to date was when he came 4th at Downpatrick in August, and if he can replicate that run here, he is sure to go well on his chase debut. Juke Box Rock ran 9 times over hurdles without winning but did place in his last two runs over the smaller obstacles, and with his last run coming last month, he will be fit and ready to go on his chase debut. A big run is expected here, and he looks the sort to progress even further with more runs under his belt. And Figurehead has run twice over fences; a 2nd at Downpatrick last time out suggests he is sure to go well in this, but he might have to settle with another placed effort here in this contest.
Poorly placed on this sharp track in a race dominated from the front and comfortably held in a bumper here last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time, usually held up, and returns from a short break. Effective at 2m on yielding or good ground but inconsistent.
Unplaced in all seven starts. Well beaten at 28-1 behind Alaskan View when sixth of 10 on his latest outing in a NH flat race over this course and distance (good) in August. He is wearing a tongue-tie for the first time.

WARTIME LEADER left Willie Mullins after a disappointing display at Kilbeggan last month. However, his two previous runs still set the standard here. The Churchill gelding split two smart performers when second at Naas last January, before he had a couple of subsequent bumper winners behind when third at the Galway festival in July. The market will be interesting with a tongue-tie added on his debut for Denis Hogan. Mullins is represented by Boo Radley, who is surely better than he showed on debut when favourite at Roscommon. Barra Rua has run solid races on all three starts but needs to improve.
With a few runs under his belt at this sort of level, WARTIME LEADER can get off the mark at the 4th time of asking on stable debut after transferring from the Willie Mullins stable. Clearly a horse with some talent, given the nature of the yard he came from, he came 2nd at Naas back in January 2024. He then went on to come 3rd on debut for Closutton at Galway in July before slightly disappointing when coming 5th at Kilbeggan next time out on his last run for previous connections. Now trained in a smaller yard, he will get more care and attention and can make it a winning start to a new life at Denis Hogan's. Barra Rua has also run 3 times in bumpers, coming 3rd last time out at Sligo. She does get the usual mare's allowance here, and if replicating that run from last time, she is sure to go close in this. And Paymelater has plenty of experience under his belt; yet to win, he can put that experience to good use but might have to settle for another place finish in this race behind two potentially nice-looking types.
