9th	1	—	Black Soul (G) Winner of maiden hurdle at Down Royal in May but ran poorly on first run since leaving P. Kiely when eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (16.8f, soft, 40/1) 11 days ago. Needs to leave that fo…	72/750-0	Mr B T Stone Conor Houlihan	7	78kg	34 33/1
—	2	—	Zuzukel (G) HT Much improved under change of tactics when second of 8 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at this track (15.8f, heavy) 60 days ago. Leading claims if in similar form in change of headgear.	88-82F9	Mr J Costello A J Martin	6	76.7kg	2.75 7/4
5th	3	—	Trebizond (G) T Finished respectable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.7f, soft) on final start for R. Mike Smith in August 2023 but unsurprisingly needed the run (50/1) on reappearance/stable debut. Mar…	1144/95	Mr R Sugrue M K Flannery	9	75.7kg	13 12/1
6th	4	—	Mo Ghille Mar (M) T Useful handicapper on Flat (stays 13.5f) but offered little on first run for yard after leaving Mrs J. Harrington with tongue strap on first time (retained). On a workable mark in this sphere but has…	606-177	Ms K M Ryan J J Hanlon	5	75.3kg	21 20/1
1st	5	—	Be Fierce (G) T Won twice over 2m at Tramore (hurdles/fences) last season but added to a patchy record when ninth of 10 in handicap chase at Killarney (17f, good, 12/1) 144 days ago. Worth a market check off lower h…	4910-44	Mr L P Shanahan T M Walsh	9	74.4kg	11 10/1
—	6	—	Hereditary Rule (G) T Sixteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at this course (16.2f, good to soft) 90 days ago. Badly out of sorts.	000U/P0	Mr F R Buckley J C McConnell	11	74.4kg	101 100/1
8th	7	—	Metamorpheus (G) On long losing run and disappointing on both starts for new trainer. Returned to this course (scene of sole win) needs to spark a revival.	083-242	Mr C A Bowman A McNamara	7	74.4kg	29 28/1
7th	8	—	Walk On Annilog (M) H At long odds, showed improved form on handicap debut (race not ideally run to suit) when sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle (100/1) at Leopardstown (16f, good) 17 days ago. Claims if she can build on tha…	7670-48	Mr D Doyle R Dunne	7	73.5kg	5 4/1
—	9	—	Eco Pete (G) P Well beaten in pair of maiden hurdles this winter. Still a maiden over hurdles but returns to a handicap and could be more competitive on a going day.	7/3P30P	Miss P Elvin P J Rothwell	9	73kg	34 33/1
3rd	10	—	Couldntmakeitup (G) T Maiden hasn't been well placed in either handicap start, shaped better than result when ninth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, soft, 10/1) 30 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Down in…	34930P	Alan O'Sullivan J Nash	6	72.6kg	5 4/1
4th	11	—	Jumble Light (G) Some promise in maidens but didn't improve on handicap bow when fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) 29 days ago, left in frame last. Needs to take a step forward.	8/5744P-	Mr J Dunne M M McNiff	7	71.2kg	6 5/1
2nd	12	—	Where Are You Now (G) FAV Has been brought along gradually in maidens, sixth of 19 at Cork (16.9f, soft) 36 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap hurdle debut and may well do better (full brother to one who improved for…	462-67P	Mr J M Halford E Bolger	5	70.8kg	2.88 15/8
—	13	—	Kilt (G) H Useful winner at 1m on Flat. Harshly dealt with my handicapper in this sphere but did shape better than result when seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) 30 days ago, having hope…	70-1454	Mr B J Walsh P J Rothwell	5	68.9kg	11 10/1
