Selected odds by:

Another Choice²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: J Smith⁽⁷⁾| T: M J Smith| D

16/1

Useful chaser. 9/1, respectable seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Galway (24.3f, soft) 26 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Switches from hurdles to chase and he looks vulnerable.

Form: 8P1-457

Common Practice^t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: S D Torrens| T: J P O'Brien| C

5/1

Useful hurdler. Produced a career-best when winning on chase debut over 2m here last month. Respectable third on the Flat recently and he's open to improvement back in this sphere.

Form: 3910-P1

Jazzy Matty²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: J C Gainford| T: C Collins| CD

14/1

Fairly useful chaser. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Career best when winning 8-runner novice chase (14/1) at this course (19.6f, good to soft) 23 days ago. May well do better.

Form: 0/0P-0F1

Magic Tricks^p¹⁰⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: M P Walsh| T: G Elliott| OR: 133| BF| D

8/1

Useful hurdler. 10/11, creditable second of 7 in novice chase at this course (16f, heavy) 104 days ago. Back up in trip and cheekpieces refitted. Should progress.

Form: 140P-12

Monbeg Park^p,t²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: C Stone-Walsh⁽⁵⁾| T: S Doyle| OR: 130| CD

5/1

Useful hurdler. C&D winner. 11/4, fourth of 7 in minor event chase at Galway (22.5f, soft) 26 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good on this occasion.

Form: 450-514

Gorgeous Tom²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: D J O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead| D

4/5

Useful hurdler. Sixteenth of 19 in a valuable handicap hurdle at Galway (16f, good to soft, 7/1) 29 days ago. SIghts lowered for this chase debut and will be a threat if his jumping passes the test.

Form: 42211-0

Forecasts

Gorgeous Tom (4/5), Monbeg Park (5/1), Common Practice (5/1), Magic Tricks (8/1), Jazzy Matty (14/1), Another Choice (16/1)

Having impressed on his chase debut here last month, COMMON PRACTICE earns the vote. The 5-y-o looked a natural over fences that day and may well go on to surpass his useful hurdles form in this sphere. Magic Tricks remains open to improvement as a chaser and he is just about second choice ahead of Jazzy Matty and Gorgeous Tom.
