11st 12lb |
Placed six times over fences for Ciaran Murphy; off for almost a year before given two runs over hurdles by his new trainer late last year; sets a decent standard on his old form and possibly worth taking a chance with him. |

Five-time hurdles winner; limited chasing experience and lacks a recent outing; however, potentially well handicapped, 8lb below the current hurdles rating he earned with a Fairyhouse win last November. |

Four-time winner is ground versatile and capable off this mark but two runs this year have not been encouraging; lower grade now but revival needed. |

Fourth of 20 over hurdles on his penultimate start before a lesser show here over 2m6f; didn't run well in his last handicap chase either so not hard to have some reservations. |

Three wins over hurdles at Ballinrobe in 2021; won over 2m4f here in March on heavy and placed over 3m1f (good) at Limerick last time; one of hurdles wins was over 3m1f as well so this trip looks too sharp. |

10st 10lb |
Worcester winner last summer off 4lb higher (2m4f) but below that level since and merely stayed on at the one pace for a remote third at Bangor last month (2m4f); won't mind returning to further but could do with the rain staying away. |

21st Jun 2025 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |

Worcester mares' chase win off 2lb higher last July (2m4f, good) but well below that level since, any benefit of the wind surgery negated in part by mistakes on last month's Uttoxeter outing; others preferred. |

25th May 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 4 |

One standout performance for current yard, namely Worcester win off this mark last July; nicely weighted but needs a physical tweak (wind surgery since last run) to facilitate a revival. |

Verdict
If BRAWLER can reproduce the useful chase form he showed for Ciaran Murphy he will be hard to beat in a race of this standard. He has run twice over hurdles since joining the Foley team and gets a hopeful vote over Politicise, who is dropped in class. Others to consider are Mylerstown who warmed up for this with hurdles run last Saturday, and Look Dont Touch. [Alan Sweetman]
