—	2	—	Anodandawink (G) Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, fourteenth of 20 in novice hurdle at this course (19f, heavy) 20 days ago. Little appeal this side of handicaps.	003-921	Mark Walsh Ciaran Murphy	5	75.3kg	51 50/1
—	3	—	Ballyedward (G) T Looks to be being brought along gradually, eighth of 18 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (20.1f, soft, 25/1) 9 days ago. Back down in trip and probably one for handicaps.	0-36803	Danny Mullins S R B Crawford	6	75.3kg	34 33/1
—	4	—	Good Option (G) Runner up in points. Fared bit better than on debut when 125/1, ninth of 22 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good) 9 days ago. Longer trips promise to be more his bag further down the line.	2-9972	Conor Stone-Walsh G P Cromwell	6	75.3kg	51 50/1
—	5	—	Jetstream Jeff (G) €9,000 3-y-o, Libertarian gelding who failed to complete both starts in points, unseated rider second one (Nov 2025). Doesn't look an obvious type on Rules debut.	U0000/P	Mr A O Harrington P McCreery	5	75.3kg	67 66/1
—	6	—	Lyreen Og (G) €70,000 3-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding made a winning point debut in March and was given a considerate introduction when eighth of 14 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Punchestown (21.9f, soft) on NH debut 42 d…	1/8	Daniel King A J Martin	6	75.3kg	67 66/1

—	9	—	Orlando Spirit (G) Hinted at ability when well held in a trio of maiden hurdles. First run for yard after leaving Declan Queally and entitled to need this after 16 months off.	50/0238-	Sean O'Keeffe Paul Power	6	75.3kg	67 66/1
—	10	—	Silver Salute (G) Placed on 4 of 6 starts in points, showed a bit starting out under Rules when seventh of 22 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good, 125/1). One to note for handicaps down the line.	78906-8	Caragh Monaghan Ian Donoghue	7	75.3kg	21 20/1
—	11	—	Takenasred (G) H No significant impact in bumpers but has shown fair form over hurdles, chasing home at good prospect at Down Royal and backed that up under more testing conditions when creditable third behind subseq…	884400	Sam Ewing S R B Crawford	8	75.3kg	4.33 10/3
—	12	—	The Dancen Kid (G) Down-the-field in a pair of Punchestown maidens to date and looks a longer-term project.	00736P/	Shane Fitzgerald R O'Sullivan	5	75.3kg	101 100/1
—	13	—	Thiscouldbetheone (G) T Well-related gelding (brother to City Island - smart hurdler for this yard) looked in need of the experience in a pair of valuable spring bumpers. Likely to do better at some stage and would be inter…	5960/	Ricky Doyle M Brassil	5	75.3kg	11 10/1
—	14	—	Can't Catch Molly (M) Step backwards from debut when twelfth of 26 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 150/1) 29 days ago. Will be better over further.	00006-	Patrick M O'Brien P Downey	6	72.1kg	67 66/1
—	15	—	Elusive Power (M) T Flat-bred daughter of Elusive Pimpernel (also half-sister to a point winner) who showed something to work on sole start for John McConnell, second of 6 in bumper (9/2) at Bangor (16.7f, good) on NH d…	2-	Carl Millar N C Kelly	6	72.1kg	13 12/1
—	16	—	Future Prospect (M) H Impressed with debut bumper success last season but didn't look straightforward on subsequent starts, including when beaten favourite behind stablemate Bambino Fever in a Grade 2. In excellent hands …	1P43-F2	Paul Townend W P Mullins	6	72.1kg	3.50 5/2

—	19	—	Ode To Joy (M) Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, tailed-off tenth of 12 to Shadys Lady in bumper at this C&D (heavy) 56 days ago, pulling hard. Makes hurdles debut but likely needs more time.	004353-	Liam McKenna W J McLernon	6	72.1kg	151 150/1
—	20	—	Peppers Corner (M) H Point winner hasn't been competitive in either start over hurdles. Hard to fancy this side of handicaps.	1-00070	Josh Younge Edward F Power	7	72.1kg	151 150/1
—	21	—	Rathbawn Soldier (M) H 100/1 and hooded (took strong hold) when twelfth of 25 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut 29 days ago. Plenty to find.	0001	Simon Torrens P T Foley	5	72.1kg	101 100/1
