Totally different proposition for this yard, making a winning hurdling bow prior to landing the odds in 6-runner handicap at Sligo (13.4f, soft) back on the level in August. Returned to hurdling and ran poorly before falling at Down Royal (16.9f, good) later that month and not seen since.

13/2
Fair maiden on the Flat who made winning start over hurdles when taking 12-runner juvenile hurdle at this course (16f, good) on in November, getting first run. Tailed off in much deeper waters back here (16.5f, good) just under 6 weeks ago and this more suitable.

Fairly useful maiden on the Flat. Improved from hurdling debut when second of 16 in juvenile at Limerick (16f, soft, 6/1) 16 days ago. Fancied to be in the shake up again.

66/1
Modest maiden on the Flat. 200/1 and hooded for 1st time, left hurdling debut effort behind when fourth of 20 in juvenile at Punchestown (16.4f, soft) 11 days ago. Capable of better again.

Fairly useful on Flat (stays 13f), successful twice in 2024. Faced a stiff task starting out over hurdles at graded level after 10 months off when tailed off in juvenile at Leopardstown (16f, good) recently so will need to leave that well behind.

Forecasts

Bacchanalian (4/5), Wendrock (10/11), Mo Ghille Mar (7/2), Butter Fingers (9/2), Space Warrior (13/2), Hobart (40/1), Makaiah (66/1)

Verdict

It's hard to get away from WENDROCK, who put his hurdling debut experience to good use when scoring at Leopardstown just over a fortnight ago and Gordon Elliott's can take this before heading to bigger and better things. The main danger looks to be Bacchanalian, who left his initial effort over hurdles behind when finding just one too good at Limerick recently. Butter Fingers can edge out Space Warrior for third.
