FAST MEDICINE won twice on the Flat for Peter Chapple-Hyam reaching a career high mark of 88 and has been switched to hurdles by current connections this year. He was fourth at Roscommon before weakening in the straight in a stronger maiden on soft ground at Galway. Laelaps has a similar profile having scored twice on the Flat for Jessica Harrington and has raced quite keenly on both hurdle starts this year. Fox Leicester is an experienced sort on the Flat winning six times and has been placed twice over hurdles this year, while All In Peder appreciated good ground when successful twice on the Flat this year including over two miles at Listowel but disappointed on his only hurdle start on soft at Clonmel. Nottodaybobo and Bayou Belle are others to consider.

An open-looking maiden with the vote going to FOX LEICESTER, who'll be suited by a return to 2m having failed to stay the extended 18f at Cork on his most recent outing. Old Port will be a big threat if transferring his Flat form over to hurdles at the first attempt, while Bayou Belle and Nottodaybobo are others with claims.

A weak enough maiden in which it could pay to side with those with previous hurdling experience so NOTTODAYBOBO gets a tentative vote

THECOMPANYSERGEANT is taken to bounce back from a disappointing reappearance at the Galway Festival in a race that might set up well for him with a number of front runners. The selection was a useful sort in bumpers before winning a Navan maiden hurdle this spring and finishing second in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse. Men Of Dreams and Mighty Mo Missouri both made all here last time while Shajak also easily won a maiden from the front at Limerick last month before a highly creditable third on the level to Teed Up in the valuable Connacht Hotel Handicap for amateur riders on the opening evening of the Galway Festival. Baltic Bird also enters the equation on his easy win at Cork last time.

THECOMPANYSERGEANT pulled too hard over an extended 2¾m on his Galway reappearance. That should have knocked some of the freshness out of Denis Hogan's 6-y--o and he's the clear pick on the form he showed in the spring now returning to a shorter trip. 4-y-os Shajak and Baltic Bird should have more to come after last-time-out wins and can give the selection most to do.

Having got off the mark over hurdles at Limerick, SHAJAK(nap) since ran a cracker in a valuable Galway Flat handicap and can take this.

SCOTT LANG won an 18-runner handicap on the Flat at Navan early last year and has been generally consistent since under both codes. The Paul Flynn-trained gelding has been placed on all three starts in maiden hurdles and now tackles handicap company in this sphere for the first time. Good World has won three times over hurdles at varying trips and wasn't beaten far at Galway last time but may find 2m3f a bit sharp around here. Jinxs Link showed improved form when scoring in good style over a similar trip here last month, while Arctic Ambition and Cozone were both placed at Sligo on Wednesday and are certainly a factor if turning out again.

BUTTONS AND BOWS is the suggestion on the back of a good run at Wexford last time. Paul Flynn's Scott Lang appeals as one who can go on to better things in handicaps and is second choice ahead of Wednesday's Sligo third Arctic Ambition.

Wednesday's Sligo third Arctic Ambition holds strong claims but preference is for recent course winner JINXS LINK

Ginnets Girl had CAMINO ROCK over four lengths behind when the pair were placed behind Mighty Mo Missouri over 2m3f here earlier this month but Mouse Morris' charge may reverse the placings over this longer trip. The selection ran a cracker when a close third to Ballybawn Belter in a 2m4f handicap at the Punchestown Festival and showed he's suited by a test of stamina when also placed behind Grand Soir over 2m7f at Thurles last season. Ginnets Girl has been consistent over a variety of trips and certainly won't lack for experience, while Givago has proved expensive to follow on both outings to date. He was soundly beaten when odds-on for a Sligo bumper and was no match on the run-in for Lake Winnipesaukee in a 2m4f Roscommon maiden hurdle.

CAMINO ROCK holds the edge on form so looks set to gain his breakthrough success at the chief expense of the less exposed Givago who rates a major threat with improvement forthcoming. Gordon Elliott's Ginnets Girl is another who can have a say in a fairly useful maiden.

GINNETS GIRL is officially rated 5lb inferior to Camino Rock but can confirm recent form here with that rival over the longer trip

WINNIE WOODNUTT recorded a third point-to-point win this spring and showed her liking for this track when opening her account in a 3m handicap hurdle in April. The selection has been a model of consistency since including when runner-up over fences at Limerick and should relish this step back up in trip. The veteran pair Father Jed and Rudy Catrail have both added to their winning haul this year. The latter has returned in good form this year and after filling the runner-up spot twice, went one better in typically front-running style over this trip at Roscommon last time with Fr Gilligansvoyge back in third. Steps Match won over hurdles at Roscommon last month and now switches back to fences on a reasonable mark.

WINNIE WOODNUTT reverts to fences with the prospect of more to come now her stamina is drawn out more so can open her account in this sphere. Both Step's Match (second choice) and Rudy Catrail bring solid credentials to the table though and should ensure she doesn't have things all her own way.

Consistent in defeat since winning here over hurdles in April, WINNIE WOODNUTT could get off the mark over fences today.

Point-to-point winner QUANTUM REALM scored twice over fences last year including a half-length defeat of Gateau De Miel over just short of three miles at Downpatrick. He ran a cracker last time when runner-up to Toss Again in the valuable Galway Blazers Handicap Chase (Desertmore House back in seventh) and a reproduction of that form should make him hard to beat. Mica Malpic showed a nice turn of foot to win over 2m3f here recently and the Enda Bolger-trained gelding showed he's equally well suited by three miles when scoring in fine style at Listowel last autumn. Macgiloney returned to form over hurdles here last time, while My Design also reverts to fences after winning at the Galway Festival. Waitnsee and Gondor, successful at Killarney last month, are others to consider.

Plenty of depth to this handicap with QUANTUM REALM just about the most persuasive option back up in trip having finished with running left at Galway 3 weeks ago. Mica Malpic landed a few bets here a fortnight ago and seems sure to go well again, with Gondor the potential big improver at the foot of the weights.

Despite going up 9lb for his win over 2m3f here last time, MICA MALPIC will be even more effective over this longer trip.

Willie Mullins continues to dominate in bumpers with six winners in this division over the past three weeks. LISADELL LASS represents the champion trainer and the daughter of Sageburg is a half-sister to three winners including the useful Uncle Tom Cobley plus a couple of bumper winners. Miss Oreo won a point-to-point last December and made much of the running when placed on her bumper debut at the Cork Easter meeting but found the opposition tougher at Galway last time. Barton Snow also won a point-to-point this spring and was only caught close home by Chef D'etat but needs to bounce back following a disappointing effort at Wexford. Answering and The Shantou King have also shown some promise in bumpers, while The Dooner Citizen and Westerhope are newcomers to note in the market.

LISSADELL LASS hails from a top yard and is related to 4 winners, so she's likely to make a successful start at the possible expense of Barton Snow, who should be back on his game following a break. Westerhope is another interesting newcomer.

The well-bred LISSADELL LASS looks the safest choice to go in on debut for Willie Mullins.
