1
Horse silk
3/1
Fair Flat winner who has made a promising start over hurdles for her new stable over hurdles, third of 15 in juvenile hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft, 5/2) 40 days ago. Likely she can play a part again.

Affinisea gelding. Half-brother to modest hurdler On Cloud Nine. Dam French hurdle winner around 2m. Made frame on first of 2 starts in points, unplaced last time (Mar 31).

Horse silk
100/1
Doyen gelding. Hooded, last of 8 in juvenile hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft, 100/1) on NH debut 40 days ago, left behind quickly 2 out. Can only be watched on the back of that.

Horse silk
100/1
Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in novice hurdle (28/1) at Downpatrick (18.8f, good) on NH debut 21 days ago, always behind having not jumped too fluently. Needs to leave that behind if he's to feature.

16/1
Well held on 6 starts on Flat but achieved more when seventh of 16 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (15.6f, good, 40/1) on NH debut 27 days ago. That doesn't appeal as strong form but it remains early days with him in this sphere.

2/5
Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 7 hurdle runs. 2/1, creditable second of 14 in juvenile hurdle at Tramore (16f, good to soft) 37 days ago, no match for winner. Looks to have finished improving but she's a definite player on what she has achieved to date.

18/1
Modest maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. First run since leaving Alan Richardson when twelfth of 14 in handicap (22/1) at Gowran (7f, good) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.

Horse silk
80/1
Once-raced maiden. 66/1, eighth of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 53 days ago. Probably one for later on.

Horse silk
40/1
Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser The Granson, stayed 19f. Dam 1m winner at 2 yrs.

12
Horse silk
100/1
Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, pulled up in juvenile hurdle at Ayr (2m, soft) in December, tailing off before straight. Absent subsequently and she's hard to make a case for here.

Forecasts

Mordor (2/5), Leitzel (3/1), Bobbysingindablues (11/1), Game Eagle (16/1), Serotonin (18/1), Strandhill Bay (40/1), Psycho Sid (50/1), Shashado (80/1), Tiny Angel (100/1), Cois Fharraige (100/1), Rocket Ruby (100/1), Cowper Hall (100/1)

Verdict

MORDOR looks to have finished improving but the pick of his exploits over hurdles gives him sound claims here, so he's narrowly preferred to Leitzel in a race lacking depth. Game Eagle may emerge best of the remainder.
