—	1	—	Fiveonefive (G) Tends to save his best for Cartmel (three-time winner of valuable June handicap there). Contested some deep handicaps to end last season and largely struggled but this is a shade easier.	P00-843	Danny Gilligan C Collins	8	75.3kg	26 25/1
—	2	—	Redwood Queen (M) C&D winner but continued out of sorts with cheekpieces on for first time when pulled up in listed mares event at this course (17f, good to soft) on Saturday.	628U3/P	Finn Brickley C Collins	9	74.8kg	17 16/1
2nd	3	—	Watch The Weather (G) T Won twice over fences in 2024 and should be sharper for return to action when sixth of 15 in handicap chase at Wexford (19f, soft) 31 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles and needs to build on th…	386-205	Jack Kennedy R P Cody	10	73.9kg	11 10/1
9th	4	—	William Tell (G) T Maiden/novice winner in 2025 who clearly wasn't on his game when well held under a penalty at Thurles. Off 5 months ahead of this handicap debut but he does bring an unexposed profile to the table.	6-972U5	Cian Quirke D H Kelly	7	73kg	15 14/1
4th	5	—	My Gaffer (G) Won this race (from 6 lb lower) a year ago and best effort for a while when adding to his tally in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (23f, good to soft) 27 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Enters …	50871-4	Liam McKenna J P Ryan	8	71.2kg	9 8/1
—	6	—	Royal Soldier (G) Left previous hurdling efforts well behind when winning 11-runner handicap at Gowran and had just hit the front when taking a heavy fall at the last at Fairyhouse (2½m, soft) a month ago. Engaged 2.0…	0541F-P	Keith Donoghue Mrs G Callaghan	6	71.2kg	5 4/1
6th	7	—	Themanintheanorak (G) Bumper winner who made second handicap start a winning one at Fairyhouse over this trip in February. Latest efforts in competitive handicaps at Cork (latterly over 3m) confirm that he remains in good…	21066-6	Alan O'Sullivan E M O'Sullivan	6	70.8kg	6 5/1
—	8	—	Duty Bound (G) Pulled Up T Successful twice under this jockey last spring/summer, latterly over C&D. 6 lb higher here and last seen recording a heavy defeat on the level in March.	552F-P5	Donagh Meyler J P Flavin	7	70.3kg	15 14/1
—	9	—	Elusive Ogie (G) Fell Winner of a maiden hurdle at Limerick a year and proving pretty consistent in handicaps since, further back than ideal when mid-field back from 5 months off at Cork in April.	359-F05	Daniel King E McCarthy	5	70.3kg	6 5/1
7th	10	—	King In Love (G) P Cork winner in November and excellent third in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown a month later. Heavy defeat when sixteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Naas (19f, heavy) 64 days ago and cheekpiece…	P153/50-	Sean O'Keeffe S Aherne	6	69.4kg	15 14/1
3rd	11	—	Falco Blitz (G) Back-to-back winner over fences in early 2024 but off since October of that year. Long absence to overcome but assessor has given him a major chance back over hurdles.	10D54/3	Calum Hogan E McNamara	12	68.5kg	34 33/1
8th	12	—	Lord Ffrench (G) Winner of a steadily-run maiden in hurdle at Sligo (21f) in August. Disappointed on handicap debut the following month and while he showed more back in novice company soon after, he'll need to return…	7-	Phillip Enright S Curling	6	68.5kg	29 28/1
5th	13	—	Therellbguddaysyet (G) Fairly useful hurdler for Michael John O'Connor. Fared as well as could be expected from very tough terms when fourth of 7 in a minor race at Cork (2m) last month and this a more suitable assignment.	76/4-58P	Darragh O'Keeffe P O'Flynn	10	67.6kg	7 6/1
1st	14	—	Burru (G) Ended time for this yard in excellent order in 2024, winning big-field handicap at Cork. Rather in-and-out for Liam Kenny last year but back with previous yard and his record fresh is a positive one.…	638P-10	Michael Kenneally Bernard Crowley	8	65.8kg	6.50 11/2
—	15	—	Maxios Prime (M) FAV Pulled Up Has built up a solid record in handicaps, another sound effort when fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Navan (2m, soft, 3/1) 51 days ago. Up in trip, which promises to suit so she needs considering.	227/434-	Tiernan Power Roche P J Rothwell	5	65.3kg	5.50 9/2
