6/1

16/1 and blinkered for 1st time, bounced back to best when creditable second of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (19f, soft) 30 days ago. Needs to build on that effort returned to handicap company.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: R Deegan| T: Richard Daniels| OR: 92| C

18/1

Course winner. Offered little after 7 months off when pulled up in handicap hurdle (20/1) at this course (19f, soft) 30 days ago, losing touch soon after 3 out. Needs to leave that in his wake if he's to feature.

Form: 2516-8P

Birdsandthebees^h³³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: P T Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: P Roche| OR: 88

4/1

Off the mark in handicap chase at Clonmel in October and quickly dispelled a lesser effort when runner-up at this course (17.7f) 33 days ago. Lower mark to operate from back over timber and she's worth a second look.

Form: 7-55152

God Help Us^h1³²⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: M P O'Connor| T: E F Gallagher| OR: 88

33/1

Winning pointer who produced an error-strewn round of jumping and never figured when eighth of 10 in hunter chase on debut for this stable at Thurles (24.8f) 10 month ago. First-time hood reached for back over smaller obstacles but others appeal more.

Form: 33/5518-

Garcon Doux^b⁴⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: S Fitzgerald| T: P Fenton| OR: 87

8/1

One win from 29 NH runs. 6/1, bit below form fifth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, soft) 46 days ago. Strike rate tempers enthusiasm for win purposes but pick of recent efforts give him definite claims in a weak affair.

Form: 083295

Midnight Eagle⁶⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Cian Cullinan⁽⁷⁾| T: Aengus King| OR: 87

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 250/1, seventh of 10 in novice hurdle at Thurles (22.9f, good) 68 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Others more persuasive.

Form: 0P007

Maciver^b²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: C M Quirke⁽⁵⁾| T: A O'Grady| OR: 85

3/1

Winning hurdler who was seen to maximum effect when opening his chase account in 12-runner handicap chase at Tramore (22.8f, heavy, 12/1) 27 days ago, going from the front and left clear last. Overall profile suggests he's no sure thing to be in the same form switched back to hurdles.

Form: 95-PS01

Askwell^p1⁸⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-6| J: C P McNamara| T: E McNamara| OR: 78

12/1

12/1, eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (23.8f, good) 84 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time.

Form: 800-0F0

Winter Carnival⁷⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-6| J: A M King⁽⁷⁾| T: J Neilan| OR: 78

14/1

Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs. 10/1, eighth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (soft) in November. Others more persuasive back from a short break.

Form: 40-9908

Me And Mrs Lee⁴⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: G B Noonan⁽⁵⁾| T: N Lee| OR: 75

25/1

66/1, eighteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.8f, soft) 49 days ago, weakening soon after 3 out. Remains with little form and she's hard to recommend.

Forecasts

Maciver (3/1), Birdsandthebees (4/1), Annamaymurt (6/1), Roc My Haarth (13/2), Garcon Doux (8/1), Askwell (12/1), Winter Carnival (14/1), Mellem (14/1), Mullanour (18/1), Getaway Master (18/1), Me And Mrs Lee (25/1), God Help Us (33/1), Midnight Eagle (40/1), Three Tribes (50/1)

Chase-scorer BIRDSANDTHEBEES is able to run off a much lower mark in this sphere and having highlighted her well-being with a good second over larger obstacles here 33 days ago, she could well be the answer. Handicap-debutant Roc My Haarth and Gracon Doux head up the dangers ahead of Maciver.
