Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Form	Jockey / Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
3rd	1	—	Aruntothequeen (M) Talented bumper winner but has failed to meet expectations over hurdles so far, albeit contesting good Leopardstown handicaps the last twice. Drops in grade/trip here and could play a bigger role.	670-33F	Donagh Meyler Mrs J Harrington	7	73kg	5.50 9/2
8th	2	—	Barrogstown Girl (M) Fair Flat winner well held in 2 maiden hurdles last year.	06-820	Aidan Kelly J P Fahey	6	73kg	81 80/1
4th	3	—	Chisel Hill (M) 150/1, showed a bit in 19f novice hurdle here on debut 3 months ago. Engaged 5.58 Sligo Tuesday.	6-42	Sam Ewing Ian Donoghue	5	73kg	67 66/1
5th	4	—	Cinnabar Moth (M) Little impact in bumpers and held back by her jumping in 2 runs over hurdles 11 months apart.	98-0556	Philip Donovan Liz Doyle	5	73kg	251 250/1
11th	5	—	Claudel (M) Well beaten in 2 bumpers.	0/6-	Sean Flanagan P Nolan	5	73kg	201 200/1
9th	6	—	Cool As A Cat (M) 80/1, unseated rider first in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse last month.	U/9	Conor Stone-Walsh Tom Dreaper	6	73kg	201 200/1
6th	7	—	Darby Hill (M) Easy winner of second start in points earlier this year but looked a longer term prospect in novice hurdle at Clonmel 4 weeks ago.	44110-	Sean O'Keeffe P Nolan	5	73kg	151 150/1
—	8	—	Full Of Shade (M) Pulled Up From a good French jumping family and fetched €280000 after a promising second start at Auteuil 3 years ago. Huge absence to overcome but that may not prove an issue on debut for Willie Mullins.	62/	Paul Townend W P Mullins	7	73kg	5.50 9/2
7th	9	—	Glendaars Crystal (M) Crystal Ocean mare. Dam, lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, sister to top-class hurdler around 2m Darlan.	709	P J O'Hanlon D A McLoughlin	5	73kg	126 125/1
12th	10	—	Money Shuffler (M) Modest maiden on the Flat who offered little in a pair of bumpers and is readily opposed on hurdles debut.	0680-	Harry Sexton W M Roper	6	73kg	201 200/1
2nd	11	—	Salsinha (M) Bumper winner and has made a good start over hurdles, placed in a listed mares novice at Thurles before proving too keen 4 months on at Fairyhouse. Can build on that and seems sure to be thereabouts.	1434/2	Darragh O'Keeffe H De Bromhead	5	73kg	3 2/1
13th	12	—	Sky Lewis (M) Well beaten in bumpers here 3 years apart.	00/0	Ricky Doyle Ms M Blake	8	73kg	301 300/1
—	13	—	Something Black (M) Pulled Up Little promise in bumpers/maiden hurdles.	87U0/	Gavin Brouder K P Egan	7	73kg	251 250/1
1st	14	—	Switch From Diesel (M) FAV Three-time bumper winner who also won only start on the Flat in November and has shown plenty over hurdles whilst often highly tried, taking a keen hold before fading in the mud in Leopardstown Grade…	1-	Keith Donoghue R O'Sullivan	7	73kg	2 1/1
—	15	—	Turn Up The Heat (M) Fairly useful Flat winner but possibly found wanting for stamina on hurdles debut at Fairyhouse (2m) in February 2025.	6/	James Smith T Gibney	5	73kg	26 25/1
—	16	—	Dadou Part Two (F) Showed nothing in Cork bumper 8 weeks ago.	0-	Tiernan Power Roche P J Rothwell	4	70.3kg	51 50/1
—	17	—	Siofra Beag (F) Pulled Up Half-sister to fair hurdler Jinxs Link (17f-2¼m winner, by Dylan Thomas). No form on Flat in Dundalk maidens.	P	J J Slevin M Rice	4	70.3kg	126 125/1
10th	18	—	Valverdeagain (F) Poet's Word filly. Half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser Stuzzikini and fair hurdler Serpolette. Dam unraced.	—	Kieren Buckley E Buckley	4	70.3kg	126 125/1
