12st 0lb |
Two-time winning chaser; last success came in a hunters chase at Fairyhouse in November 2023; hasn't shown a lot in point-to-points recently and has fallen and pulled up on his last two starts; others look more likely. |

Has won his three starts in points since pulled up in a hunter chase at Clonmel in January; made the favourite Hearts And Spades work hard for his Dromahane win, and may again give his younger rival most to do. |

0-8 over regulation fences and this year's pointing exploits are nothing to shout about, last time finishing well behind Revolut Ned. |

3rd Jun 2025 Good 3m 0f 60y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Former Irish pointer/hunter chaser; looked badly out of sorts in handicap chases for new stable last season (four starts) and it takes a big leap of faith to support him on this hurdle debut; had wind op last month; swaps visor for refitted blinkers. |

Verdict
David Christie and Barry O’Neill are bidding to win this for the third year in a row. O’Neill’s mount GLOBAL ASSEMBLY, narrowly beaten by Grange Island at Clonmel in January, has a point-to-point run under his belt. That should be helpful, though his long-absent stablemate Ask D’Man boasts superior overall form and has the benefit of the very valuable 7lb claimed by Rob James. [Alan Sweetman]
