Won his bumper here last May and the form of last month's maiden hurdle win at Fairyhouse has worked out well; penalised accordingly but he sets the standard.

11st 12lb

J: Kevin Sexton

T: Gordon Elliott

Very promising debut in Fairyhouse maiden hurdle when 3.75l second to Colcannon in April; didn't reproduce that switched to a bumper 11 days ago at Ballinrobe when beaten favourite into fourth, looking tapped for toe; step up in trip back over hurdles will suit and he holds a leading chance.

J: Mr H C Swan

Runner-up on the second of two point-to-point starts for Colin Motherway; made a promising debut for Gordon Elliott when a clear second in a 25-runner maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last month; winner Colcannon had high-class bumper form, Grade 2 winner, Grade 1-placed; sets a high standard.

Lukers Tipple

11st 4lb

J: Keith Donoghue

T: Gavin Cromwell

A maiden under both codes and now exposed over hurdles, being 0-14; however, he's finished runner-up on seven occasions and, although below his useful best in 2026, he has the strongest form claims in this weak a maiden.

Flat maiden has run well in defeat lots of times over hurdles (13 starts) including at Limerick last time; ground-versatile and has the highest published rating in the field so should be bang there again.

Decent bumper form and improved a bit on hurdles debut after lay-off to be beaten 1l into third by Figero at Kilbeggan 22 days ago for new stable, running on well; form of that can be questioned but he should step forward for that.

Beaten under 20l in his two bumpers and again ran a decent race when a 21l sixth at Roscommon for his hurdling debut last August; makes stable debut now in a moderate race and his middling form puts him thereabouts.
