Three-time hurdle winner stays 2m6f in that sphere and rated 110; beaten a long way on sole Flat start at Ballinrobe on return this year but can do better today. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Galway festival winner in 2024 but hasn't matched that level since and has been well beaten on four of his five starts for this yard this year, latest when a 16l fourth to Mi Sueno over C&D last month; remains with plenty to find with that rival despite better terms. |

Won at Galway (2m, good) in July 2024; downhill thereafter, ending time in Ireland competing on the Flat; third of five at Exeter (2m; 33-1) on second start for this trainer but tough to fancy on strength of his other two efforts. |

4yo who is penalised for winning a Bellewstown maiden in April (2m1f, good); 0-4 in the meantime but the form of those defeats reads well in the context of this race, with his latest conqueror progressive. |

3-3 in bumpers last year (two wins here) and opened hurdling account in modest Sedgefield maiden (2m4f, soft) in December; not discredited when fifth over 2m7f at Thurles (good) later that month and has good claims on this handicap debut if ready to roll after 204-day absence. |

Yet to get his head in front this summer but fine efforts in defeat in the Tribes at Galway and when beaten 1l over 2m1f at this venue behind the subsequent Galway hurdle winner; creeping up the weights and hasn't been shaping as though this longer trip is what he wants. |

Tramore maiden winner in 2024 has largely struggled in handicaps; absent since modest fourth in Tramore Flat maiden last August so likely best watched. |

16th Aug 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |

Has regressed in handicap hurdles since winning a 2m maiden here 12 months ago; started off in points and would be a surprise winner on Flat debut. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Winner of a Tramore maiden hurdle last August (2m, good to yielding); has beaten very few rivals since that victory and was seventh of eight at Listowel last month; drops another 4lb but he would be one of the more unlikely winners. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Lightly-raced 8yo; Fair fifth at Kilbeggan on penultimate start off the same mark; workmanlike winner of a maiden hurdle last time at Downpatrick (2m3f, good); this will be just his second run in a handicap so he is entitled to continue improving. |

Won off 3lb lower at Thurles (18.5f, yielding) in November; struggled on next three starts but step in right direction when a 5l third of seven at Wexford on latest (15.5f, good, jockey dropped whip after two out); eased 1lb and this longer trip more suitable. |

Hit the frame in a maiden hurdle at Catterick in January and sixth in a much deeper race at Navan subsequently; didn't beat a rival on the Flat last month but that may have just been a pipe opener for his return to this sphere; not ruled out on handicap debut with cheekpieces fitted. |

Verdict
A tricky handicap. bGoodie Girlp stuck to her task well when winning over C&D last time and the form has been franked. She should go well again if she can keep the jumping errors at bay. bHills Of Gloryp won a maiden hurdle here last month but the form doesn’t look strong. Gordon Elliott’s bChortalp should go well but bDEPALMAp gets the tentative nod. The lightly raced 6yo has a big pull in the weights with Goodie Girl and should be sharper this time around.
