Irish challenger whose sole success came in a Limerick maiden on his hurdles debut in May 2024; placed five times last term and returns to this discipline after a couple of unsuccessful runs over fences this month; win record is offputting.

Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here.

J: Mr Alan O’Sullivan

T: John Joseph Hanlon

Sole win came in 2m Limerick maiden hurdle two years ago; consistent placed form in handicap hurdles last year, well below best last month at Plumpton; straight into handicap company for chase debut and inexperience a concern.

10st 9lb

J: Paddy Hanlon

T: John Joseph Hanlon

1-14 over hurdles but placed a few times, including on his forays to Britain; he'll enjoy this ground more than what he faced in Ireland last time but it's a struggle to call him well handicapped.
