Chasing three wins in a row following dual victories at Cork over 2m1f on good ground following the application of a hood; up 8lb more but should be on the premises. |

Point-to-point winner got off the mark hurdling at the 12th attempt when scoring over C&D last month, making much of running and finding plenty for pressure from last in a first-time hood; 7lb rise seems fair and another big run expected. |

Point winner who is 0-11 over hurdles but, since returning from a break in March, she's performed well in three out of four handicaps; solid contender provided she takes to the new hood. |

Maiden who looked ready to strike when third at Cork (2m1f, good) last month but disappointed as well-backed favourite over same C&D next time; bounced back to some extent when beaten 6.5l at Tramore nine days ago over similar trip (Pure Logic 1.25l ahead); should remain competitive. |

0-21 but some reasons for hope in her runs this season; was a 2l second at Tramore in May (2m, good) and okay efforts at Cork (2m2f, good) when fifth of 23 and when third of ten over C&D last time (good); more needed to win but definite place possibilities. |

Things picked up when second at Tramore (2m, good) and even though she ran poorly at Sligo next time, her recent outing at Cork also held promise when fifth of 23 (2m2f, good); may get involved. |

Won back-to-back handicap hurdles at Thurles (2m) and Cork (2m4f) late last year; 2026 form is less persuasive, though the form of his Sligo fourth was boosted significantly by the winner Timurshah in winning twice at the Galway festival. |

Bounced back to form with a close third under a positive ride over 1m7f at Leopardstown last month; form of that race is questionable and she's 4lb out of the weights, but C&D winner last summer and her rider's claim helps; trainer returned to the winners' enclosure at Galway earlier this month. |
