14:00 Cork Maiden Hurdle 16f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (11/1 -83%) Cruden	11 11/1(-83%)	(2) Cruden 11/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 11.5f), won maiden at Limerick in May, below form in handicaps since. However, no great surprise where he capable of making an impact now hurdling and interesting if the market spoke in his favour. Flat recruit rated 77, sole win came on heavy, poor efforts last three runs, best watched.
2	5 2nd (5) (9/1 -29%) Star Runner	9 9/1(-29%)	(5) Star Runner 9/1, Zoustar half brother to fairly useful hurdler Cozone (2½m winner). Fairly useful form on Flat (stays 1¼m), runner-up last 2 starts for Andrew Balding earlier this year and he's another to note in the betting now hurdling. Rated 77 on the Flat for Andrew Balding, new yard, related to hurdles winner, interesting.
3	8 3rd (8) (18/1 -13%) Janes Harbour	18 18/1(-13%)	(8) Janes Harbour 18/1, Promise when midfield only start in maiden on Flat and shaped as if in need of the experience when seventh of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Listowel (16f, good) on NH debut 21 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Should improve. Showed promise sole flat start, beaten a long way on hurdles debut, may need more time.
4	1 4th (1) (11/8 +21%) Action Plan	1.375 11/8(+21%)	(1) Action Plan 11/8, Fairly useful Flat winner who has made a solid start over hurdles, matching debut form in this sphere when third of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Listowel (16f, good) 21 days ago. Obvious claims. Flat recruit, placed in first two hurdles, ran well here on the level, leading claims.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 -86%) Robbies Rock	6.5 13/2(-86%)	(4) Robbies Rock 13/2, Failed to justify strong support when third on hurdles debut at Killarney (17f) back in July but improved model on Flat since, opening his account at Navan (14f) prior to a good second at Listowel (12f) 3 weeks ago. Likely he can do better returned to this sphere. Flat recruit rated 77, third on his hurdles debut at Killarney, in good hands, chance.
6th	3 6th (3) (3/1 +33%) Mick Collins	3 3/1(+33%)	(3) Mick Collins 3/1, Inns Of Court gelding. Dam half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Winning Spark. Fairly useful form when in frame all 4 starts on Flat, fourth of 16 in maiden (4/1) at Navan (10.2f, good) 36 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time now hurdling. 0-4 on the Flat but promise all four starts, could go well if he can jump; tongue tied.
6	6 \|S\| (6) (8/1 +33%) Turn And Finish	8 8/1(+33%)	(6) Turn And Finish 8/1, Fair form only start on Flat and despite signs of greenness, offered something to work on when midfield in 13-runner juvenile hurdle at Ballinrobe 4 weeks ago. Represents leading yard and he looks sure to do better. Didn't jump fluently on hurdles bow at Ballinrobe, top yard but may need more experience.

ACTION PLAN can continue the fine recent form of the Gerard O'Leary stable. Just about the highest rated of these on the Flat, the Soldier's Call gelding has finished third on both starts over flights to date. Given his experience, Jack Kennedy is likely to make this a real test for the newcomers. Trainer Noel Meade does well with his juvenile hurdlers, so his debutant Mick Collins has to be of interest. Rated 79 on the level, the son of Inns Of Court is open to improvement after just the four career starts. Robbies Rock is another to consider, having shown improvement on the Flat since finishing third at Killarney on his only start over hurdles.

ACTION PLAN cemented the positive start made over hurdles when third in juvenile company at Listowel 3 weeks ago and he looks to hold sound claims of opening his account here. Robbies Rock and Turn And Finish are others to consider with improvement anticipated. Star Runner is one of the hurdling newcomers to note in the betting for clues.

ACTION PLAN has already proved he can jump, he was as good as any of these on the Flat and he can make his previous experience count.

14:00 Cork Maiden Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:35 Cork Maiden Hurdle 20f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	11 1st (11) (4/1 +60%) Thisistheway	4 4/1(+60%)	(11) Thisistheway 4/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who shaped as if better for the run after 5 months off when fifth of 11 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft, 7/2) on hurdles bow 17 days ago, not unduly punished. Very much the type to do better. Good run in a Graded bumper but opposable on latest effort at Listowel.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/1 +44%) Keep Kool Coko	9 9/1(+44%)	(7) Keep Kool Coko 9/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 12 in bumper at Listowel (16f, soft, 6/1) 17 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. Not beaten far into sixth in soft-ground Listowel bumper and that's something to build on.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/2 +62%) The Diddler	2.5 5/2(+62%)	(8) The Diddler 5/2, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 6/1, excellent second of 19 in bumper at Galway (16f, soft) 71 days ago, no match for winner. Likely has more to offer returned to this sphere. Third off 22 in a Punchestown 2m3f maiden hurdle and 2m was too sharp back in a bumper.
4	2 4th (2) (1/1 +56%) Arctic Gale	1 1/1(+56%)	(2) Arctic Gale 1/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 11/10, respectable second of 8 in novice hurdle at Bellewstown (20.5f, good) 46 days ago, an error at the last proving his undoing. Looks sure to be in the shake-up again. Beaten fav in three of his four maiden hurdles but he sets the standard.
5th	9 5th (9) (33/1 +0%) True Light	33 33/1(+0%)	(9) True Light 33/1, Fair winner at 2m in bumpers for Willie Mullins earlier in career. Lightly raced and seemingly not the easiest to train, fifth of 16 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, soft) 39 days ago. Handicaps likely more her bag in this sphere. A winner for Willie Mullins but limited impact in three maidens for this yard.
6th	4 6th (4) (150/1 -127%) Mister Persistence	150 150/1(-127%)	(4) Mister Persistence 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft, 18/1) on NH debut 17 days ago, racing off the pace and no threat from 3 out. Much more needed up in trip. Well beaten at Listowel and a line through winner gives him masses to find with Kish Bank.
7th	10 7th (10) (200/1 -33%) Eugenious	200 200/1(-33%)	(10) Eugenious 200/1, Once-raced maiden. 125/1, fourteenth of 15 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft) on NH debut 17 days ago. Up in trip. 125-1 when always out the back in a maiden hurdle at Listowel.
8th	5 8th (5) (80/1 +20%) Silent Selector	80 80/1(+20%)	(5) Silent Selector 80/1, Little impact both starts in maiden points and offered little starting out in this sphere when ninth of 16 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (15.6f, soft) on NH debut 13 days ago. Significantly up in trip. No more than minor promise in two points and was tailed off in his maiden hurdle.
9th	3 9th (3) (22/1 -57%) Ardera Gun	22 22/1(-57%)	(3) Ardera Gun 22/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 11 in bumper at Killarney (17f, good, 12/1) 87 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. Ability in bumpers and he's bred to improve for this longer trip now hurdling.

Runner-up on three of his five starts over hurdles, ARCTIC GALE can make the breakthrough. A bumper winner at Fairyhouse last October, the Emmet Mullins-trained five-year-old has shown enough since going jumping to suggest he can win a race of this nature. A reproduction of his Galway run in particular would make him hard to beat in this company. Unbeaten point-to-point and bumper winner Kish Bank rates a serious threat. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was an impressive winner of his sole start between the flags, while the form of his subsequent bumper win has worked out nicely. Lightly-raced mare The Diddler is another who should be involved having shown ability in her short career to date.

Successful on his only start in points, KISH BANK justified support when making a winning bumper debut at Punchestown back in December. He makes plenty of appeal now his attentions switch to timber and earns the vote. Arctic Gale has shown more than enough to think a race of this nature is within reach and he's the chief threat. Thisistheway and The Diddler are others warranting respect.

This will probably concern ARCTIC GALE and Kish Bank who are closely matched through one line of form.

14:35 Cork Maiden Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:10 Cork Novices Hurdle 24f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +27%) Luckinthecity	4 4/1(+27%)	(1) Luckinthecity 4/1, Bumper winner who won a 14-runner novice (2/5) at Kilbeggan (16f, good) on hurdles bow 51 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Open to progress. Today's longer trip could trigger something but Townend prefers his stablemate.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/4 +63%) Millforce	1.5 6/4(+63%)	(2) Millforce 6/4, Won 8-runner novice hurdle (15/2) at Bellewstown (20.5f, good) on NH debut 46 days ago. Likely to improve. 2m4f maiden winner; also won a point and today's 3m should be of benefit.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/4 +36%) Oscars Brother	2.25 9/4(+36%)	(3) Oscars Brother 9/4, Winner in hurdle at Limerick in March. Good second of 8 in minor event hurdle (6/1) at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 137 days ago. Claims. Proven stayer who ran his best race last time out; drier ground asks a question of him.
4	5 4th (5) (6/1 -20%) Mexican Moonshine	6 6/1(-20%)	(5) Mexican Moonshine 6/1, Twice-raced winner over hurdles. 13/2, won 16-runner novice hurdle at Roscommon (20.3f, soft) 13 days ago, driven out. Should progress. Dug deep to win her second start, a 2m4f maiden at Roscommon; more needed.
5th	6 5th (6) (33/1 -313%) Mollys Kingdom	33 33/1(-313%)	(6) Mollys Kingdom 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Very good second of 12 in novice hurdle (40/1) at Gowran (20.2f, good) 8 days ago. Up in trip. Chased home a good one at Gowran last week but now 0-5 under rules.

OSCARS BROTHER can credit former champion apprentice Connor King with a first winner in the training ranks. A thorough stayer, the six-year-old shaped well for his previous trainer when runner-up over this trip in January before opening his account next time at Limerick. Although softer ground would undoubtedly be preferable, the gelding was second on good ground in a point-to-point. Dual winner Femme Magnifique sets the standard off a handicap mark of 119. The Willie Mullins-trained mare made all when easily winning at Downpatrick in June. Point-to-point winner Millforce made a winning debut under rules for Gavin Cromwell at Bellewstown. The son of Workforce has to be respected for his in-form yard.

FEMME MAGNIFIQUE wasn't seen to best effect at Killarney last time and is worth another chance on these terms. Mexican Moonshine will be suited by this increase in trip so is feared most.

Preference is for MILLFORCE (nap) who did well to win over 2m4f at Bellewstown as 3m looks sure to be a better fit for him

15:45 Cork Maiden Chase 18f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (2/1 +33%) Ah Remy Martin	2 2/1(+33%)	(1) Ah Remy Martin 2/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 6/1, good third of 18 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.2f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Makes chase debut. As good as any of these over hurdles and bred to make a chaser.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/1 -50%) Sea Road Fill	9 9/1(-50%)	(3) Sea Road Fill 9/1, Modest chaser. 28/1, fourth of 5 in minor event chase at Sligo (21.1f, good) 11 days ago. Well beaten behind Someone's Wish at Downpatrick but did run better at Sligo.
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 -50%) Someone's Wish	3 3/1(-50%)	(5) Someone's Wish 3/1, Fair chaser. 11/1, creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good) 15 days ago. Switches from Flat to chase. Career best when winning on last chase outing. Open to progress. Already a winning chaser; he's limited but only a 4yo and this looks winnable.
4	2 4th (2) (5/2 +0%) Noble Talent	2.5 5/2(+0%)	(2) Noble Talent 5/2, Promising sort. Fair winner at 21f over hurdles. 10/1, second of 8 in novice chase at Sligo (21.1f, good) on debut over fences 11 days ago. Likely to improve. Chase debut and sole hurdle success came over 2m5f; this trip might test him.
5th	4 5th (4) (12/1 -60%) Zolpharine	12 12/1(-60%)	(4) Zolpharine 12/1, Fair chaser. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 7/1, bit below form third of 10 in novice chase at Killarney (23.4f, soft) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Maiden hurdle winner; 2m7f on yielding looked a stretch on return to fences at Killarney.

The only previous winner over fences in the race, SOMEONE'S WISH can maintain his unbeaten chasing record. Gordon Elliott's four-year-old stayed on strongly under Jack Kennedy when opening his account at the first time of asking at Downpatrick last month. Following a recent spin on the Flat in the student derby, the gelding should be primed for this assignment. Noble Talent ran a big race when runner-up on his chasing debut at Sligo recently. Sure to be all the better for that experience, the one concern is that he drops back nearly half a mile in trip here. Chasing debutant Ah Remy Martin was just about the best of these over hurdles. If he takes to the larger obstacles, the Thomas Gibney-trained gelding should go very close.

NOBLE TALENT offered something to work on sent chasing after 5 months off when second at Sligo and this looks a good opportunity to go one better on these terms. Someone's Wish showcased his versatility when making a winning chase bow at Downpatrick and is feared most.

He's the one lacking chasing experience but AH REMY MARTIN is bred for fences and he was as good as any of these over hurdles.

15:45 Cork Maiden Chase 18f PREDICTION SIMULATION

16:20 Cork Handicap Chase 18f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (11/4 -129%) The Banger Doyle	2.75 11/4(-129%)	(1) The Banger Doyle 11/4, 1 win from 3 runs this season. Latest win in chase at Punchestown in June. Good second of 11 in handicap chase at Listowel (17.7f, good, 15/2) 21 days ago, conceding first run. Looks the one to beat. Back over fences he was a rallying second off just 3lb lower at Listowel; chance.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/2 +66%) Calico	5.5 11/2(+66%)	(5) Calico 11/2, Fourth of 5 in minor event hurdle at Gowran (16f, good to soft, 16/1) 9 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Makes handicap chase debut. Has a bit to prove. Faced tough enough tasks the last twice (non handicaps) and this mark is okay.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +30%) Mr Saxobeat	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(6) Mr Saxobeat 7/2, 17/2, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap chase at Listowel (17.7f, good) 21 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again. Behind The Banger Doyle over this far at Listowel and he wants further than this.
4	4 4th (4) (8/1 +0%) Grange Walk	8 8/1(+0%)	(4) Grange Walk 8/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (24f, good, 22/1) 8 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back down in trip. Dropped to a handy mark. Exposed but on a dangerous mark should he turn things around back over fences.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (11/2 -57%) Dollar Value	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(3) Dollar Value 11/2, Temperamental sort. 5/4, shaped as if still in form when fourth of 12 in claiming hurdle at Bellewstown (20.5f, good) 46 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Expected to be bang there. Two years since he ran over fences but he's been running well over hurdles this year.
2	2 \|U\| (2) (10/3 +44%) Senecia	3.333333 10/3(+44%)	(2) Senecia 10/3, 22/1, 19¼ lengths fourth of 5 to Daddy Long Legs in Horse & Jockey Hotel Hurdle at Tipperary (16.2f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Well handicapped on best form in this sphere but others make more appeal. Unseated in his latest chase and well below best in two hurdle starts either side of that.

Despite a tendency to misbehave at the start, DOLLAR VALUE is a tough, admirable performer on a going day. Trainer Tom McCourt has his dual purpose string in excellent form right now and the nine-year-old is a hard horse to peg back if getting an easy lead. A galloping flat track such as this one should really play to his strengths. Grange Walk has to be a contender on his return to fences. A decent handicapper at his best, the John Patrick Ryan-trained gelding can sometimes make mistakes at critical points in a race. Granted an error-free round, the nine-year-old has every chance. Top-weight The Banger Doyle shouldn't be far away having finished runner-up at Listowel last month.

THE BANGER DOYLE arrives in form, which can't be said for most of his rivals, and he looks the most solid choice here. Dollar Value is considered despite his quirks and Mr Saxobeat

The Banger Doyle is solid but a chance is taken on CALICO who may have more to offer over fences.

16:20 Cork Handicap Chase 18f PREDICTION SIMULATION

16:55 Cork Handicap Chase 24f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	12 1st (12) (4/1 +11%) Hand Over Fist	4 4/1(+11%)	(12) Hand Over Fist 4/1, Promising sort. Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in August. Fell in handicap chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, good to soft, 5/1) 23 days ago, looking set to go close at the time. Expected to be bang there. Kilbeggan winner; chance off this 8lb higher mark when capsizing late on at Downpatrick.
2	1 2nd (1) (12/1 +25%) Hascoeur Clermont	12 12/1(+25%)	(1) Hascoeur Clermont 12/1, Unreliable sort. Pulled up in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (25.4f, good to soft, 14/1) 51 days ago, struggling from circuit out. Has to rebound from two below-par runs but that's feasible; still only a 7yo.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/3 +17%) Noble Birth	3.333333 10/3(+17%)	(5) Noble Birth 10/3, Seventh of 11 in novice chase (16/1) at Galway (18.2f, good to soft) 34 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. First run for yard after leaving Eric McNamara. Makes handicap chase debut. Second in one of his chases and could be a lively one on debut for Gavin Cromwell.
4	10 4th (10) (8/1 +0%) Toofareastiswest	8 8/1(+0%)	(10) Toofareastiswest 8/1, 66/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Others look better treated. Third on his return from a break at Galway when outpaced over that sharp 2m6f.
5th	4 5th (4) (40/1 -150%) Clonmeen	40 40/1(-150%)	(4) Clonmeen 40/1, Latest win in chase at Punchestown in December. 18/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (31.3f, soft) 162 days ago. Back down in trip. Dual winner on slow ground late last year but has rather lost his way.
6th	8 6th (8) (22/1 -57%) King Ferdinand	22 22/1(-57%)	(8) King Ferdinand 22/1, Latest win in chase at Killarney in August. 20/1, unseated rider in handicap chase at Listowel (22f, soft) 15 days ago. Has work to do. Ran poorly after his Killarney win (9lb lower) and then departed early at Listowel.
11	11 \|F\| (11) (14/1 +0%) Avec Espoir	14 14/1(+0%)	(11) Avec Espoir 14/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this season. Latest win in hurdle at Ballinrobe in August. 9/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Listowel (23.8f, soft) 15 days ago. Considered. Testing ground an excuse last time but his current mark is a cause for concern.
13	13 \|F\| (13) (15/2 +53%) Just Three	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(13) Just Three 15/2, Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs. 10/1, ninth of 16 in handicap chase at Listowel (19.4f, soft) 16 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not taken lightly. Tack issues when backed at Galway and testing ground found him out the last time.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (4/1 +11%) Bella Bliss	4 4/1(+11%)	(6) Bella Bliss 4/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 10 in handicap chase (4/1) at Roscommon (21.7f, soft) 13 days ago. Should be involved. Only 1lb higher than for latest gallant second in a 2m5f handicap chase at Roscommon.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (20/1 -122%) I A Connect	20 20/1(-122%)	(2) I A Connect 20/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Below form sixth of 11 in handicap chase (10/1) at Listowel (17.7f, good) 21 days ago. Others make more appeal. Not in the best of form and he's unraced beyond 2m4f, so there are stamina issues.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (22/1 -83%) Paidi's Passion	22 22/1(-83%)	(3) Paidi's Passion 22/1, Latest win in chase at Roscommon in June. 17/2, bit below form fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Roscommon (21.7f, soft) 13 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not impossibly treated by any means if rediscovering some spark in the new cheekpieces.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (33/1 -65%) History Of Fashion	33 33/1(-65%)	(7) History Of Fashion 33/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (31.3f, soft, 16/1) 162 days ago, well beaten 5 out. Back down in trip. Not dismissed. Poor strike-rate but has been contesting stronger races this year.

NOBLE BIRTH can make a winning stable debut for trainer Gavin Cromwell. Three times successful over hurdles for Eric McNamara, the seven-year-old is nicely treated off a 4lb lower chasing mark. Runner-up on his first start over fences in Killarney in August, the gelding was hampered by a faller when down the field at Galway after. Switched straight into handicap company after just the two runs, that decision can be rewarded. Hand Over Fist shouldn't be far away for the Henry De Bromhead yard. A winner over fences at Kilbeggan in August, the seven-year-old was still in front when falling two out at Downpatrick next time. Runner-up on her last two outings, Bella Bliss, should again be competitive for trainer John McConnell.

HAND OVER FIST looked set to go close when falling 2 out at Downpatrick last time so, if he's none the worse for that incident, he can continue his progress and get back to winning ways. Bella Bliss and Noble Birth both strike as feasible dangers.

A chance is taken on JUST THREE, who wasn't suited by testing ground last time and he's open to improvement as a chaser.

17:30 Cork NH Flat Race 19f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (2/7 +69%) Meitheal	0.285714 2/7(+69%)	(4) Meitheal 2/7, Confirmed previous promise when winning 15-runner bumper at Galway (16.7f, good to soft) 34 days ago, keeping on well. Capable of following up. Dug deep to get the better of a well-touted Willie Mullins newcomer at Galway.
2	2 2nd (2) (50/1 -52%) Coup D'etat	50 50/1(-52%)	(2) Coup D'etat 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 14 in bumper at Clonmel (16.2f, soft, 80/1) 150 days ago. Beaten 20l on debut and even further second time out at Clonmel.
3	6 3rd (6) (16/1 -60%) A New Deck	16 16/1(-60%)	(6) A New Deck 16/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 12 in bumper at Listowel (16f, soft, 40/1) 16 days ago. Needs to improve. Nice pedigree but has made a low-key start, beaten 39l and 24l in her two races.
4	3 4th (3) (11/2 -57%) Faceman	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(3) Faceman 11/2, Once-raced maiden. Third of 12 in bumper at Listowel (20f, soft, 14/1) on NH debut 18 days ago. Worthy of respect with the potential for better. No match for the front two but stayed on into third on soft at Listowel (2m4f).
5th	1 5th (1) (15/2 -200%) Brave Crogha	7.5 15/2(-200%)	(1) Brave Crogha 15/2, Winner in bumper at Galway in August. Creditable third of 7 in bumper (13/2) at Killarney (16.4f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Should be on the premises. Has proved his Galway win was no fluke but may again be vulnerable under a penalty.
6th	5 6th (5) (66/1 +34%) King Conor	66 66/1(+34%)	(5) King Conor 66/1, Once-raced maiden. Last of 8 in bumper (50/1) at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 30 days ago. Point form forgettable and was tailed off in a Ballinrobe bumper when 50-1.

John and Thomas Kiely were on the mark with an easy bumper winner at Tramore on Thursday and the yard can strike again in this category with Galway winner MEITHEAL. The Imperial Monarch mare beat a well-fancied Willie Mullins inmate at Ballybrit after finishing second on her first two starts at Wexford. Touched off over 2m4f on debut, there are no concerns about her stamina as she steps back up in trip and she can cope with racing against geldings for the first time. Shock Galway Festival winner Brave Crogha ran respectably under a penalty at Killarney, while Faceman, out of Solerina and a half-brother to four winners over jumps, showed promise on debut when third over 2m4f at Listowel.

MEITHEAL put her stamina to good use when scoring at Galway last month and this extra distance looks firmly in her favour, so she's taken to follow up at the likely expense of Crogha. Faceman could make an impact if he steps up on his mildly encouraging debut.

The 5yo mare MEITHEAL showed a good attitude to floor a Mullins favourite at Galway and she can follow up.
