Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Form	Jockey / Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
—	1	—	Plastic Paddy (G) Pulled Up P Regressive Flat performer who showed no aptitude for hurdling twice in May. Well beaten at Bellewstown back on the level most recently and can only be watched.	PPP	Dylan Robinson Tom McGuinness	8	75.3kg	301 300/1
—	2	—	Among The Pines (G) Well beaten all 5 starts on the Flat, including on yard debut at Down Royal in May. Hard to envisage him featuring on hurdling debut.	—	Brian Hayes Kieran Callaghan	5	71.7kg	34 33/1 Sky B… 67 Betfa… 67 Paddy… 67
2nd	3	—	Chasing Blues (G) H Showed his first form on his first outing since leaving Gavin Patrick Cromwell after 14 months off when fourth of 14 in maiden hurdle at this course (2½m, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago, though…	8/S-4	Darragh O'Keeffe H De Bromhead	6	71.7kg	3.75 11/4
12th	4	—	Colwyn Bay (G) Showed a bit on belated debut when third in bumper at Clonmel in April but little promise from all 3 starts since.	30-F0	R Sugrue P J Rothwell	7	71.7kg	301 300/1
7th	5	—	Drumconnor Hill (G) Runner-up on his completed start in points and showed more than first time up over hurdles when fourth of 15 in 2m maiden at Ballinrobe in May, running on. Surprising to see him kept to this trip but…	P2-847	Ben Harvey C Collins	5	71.7kg	11 10/1
1st	6	—	Highland Realm (G) Showed plenty and just failed on debut in Tramore bumper last summer and looked more of a stayer than his pedigree might suggest when fifth of 16 in maiden at Bellewstown (17f, good) on return/hurdli…	2-5	Brian Hayes W P Mullins	5	71.7kg	4.50 7/2
6th	7	—	Owl's Delight (G) Little show in 4 starts last year (trained on debut by Patrick Foley) and has moved yards again ahead of this return.	9F8P-6	P J O'Hanlon R Donohoe	7	71.7kg	201 200/1
4th	8	—	Penny Express (G) Fair hurdler who has several placed efforts to his name and is best excused latest Kilbeggan fifth (unable to sustain effort as big move seemed to tell). Solid each-way claims once again.	P3-P454	Jack Kennedy G Elliott	6	71.7kg	5 4/1
10th	9	—	Betterluckthistime (G) Huge prices and tailed off in 2 maiden hurdles.	0-9	Shane O'Callaghan P J Rothwell	4	69.9kg	301 300/1

8th	11	—	Finjimk (G) No impact in bumper/maiden hurdle. Needs more time and distance.	F-P7880	Liam McKenna P Flood	4	69.9kg	301 300/1
3rd	12	—	Game Point (G) FAV H Fairly useful maiden at his best on the Flat and bright start over hurdles with a hood fitted, third of 15 in maiden at Roscommon (2m, good) 17 days ago, just unable to go with pair ridden closer to …	323	Donagh Meyler R P Cody	4	69.9kg	2.10 11/10
9th	13	—	Pinkarizon (G) HT Fair maiden at best on Flat for Warren Greatrex but sold cheaply from that yard and has made no impact in a couple of maiden hurdles (saddle slipped latest).	PP9P	Phillip Enright Padraig Butler	4	69.9kg	301 300/1
5th	14	—	Plus Or Minus (G) T Well beaten in 7 Flat starts. Needs this switch to hurdles to prove transformative.	8790-78	Richard Condon P A Fahy	4	69.9kg	251 250/1

—	16	—	Texas Red (G) Didn't offer a great deal in 4 bumper starts for Ronald O'Leary and looked in need of experience on hurdling debut for new connections on return at Downpatrick last month. RESERVE.	6455-84	Reserve 2 P J Rothwell	6	71.7kg	9 8/1 Sky B… 21 Betfa… 21 Paddy… 21
