Joe Cooney Memorial Hurdle

Loughlin Harte
Free-going sort who went close on what was effectively her hurdling debut at Kilbeggan (3m) in late-May before responding well to win a Sligo bumper. Followed up when making all in a ready fashion in a 15-runner novice hurdle (5/1) at Killarney (23f, good) 22 days ago. Can improve again.

John Patrick Ryan
Yard was in top form when he turned in his best effort this season when 14 lengths fourth of 9 in a handicap chase at Killarney (17f) last month but below that level at Galway last week and others make greater appeal as he reverts to hurdling.

Mrs Margaret C Kiely
Quickly made up into a smart hurdler in 2024/25, winning the Galmoy before a good fourth in the Stayers' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival in 2025. Disappointing over fences after a winning debut in that sphere, increasingly looking a hard ride, so needs to benefit from return to hurdling.

Mark McCausland
Regressive over fences for Willie Mullins but took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 23 in the Kim Muir at the Cheltenham Festival. Took a heavy fall at Punchestown since and came for an overly-agressive ride when eighth in the Midlands National at Killarney (25f) 4 weeks ago.

Elusive Pimpernel gelding who showed ability when finishing in the frame in 14-runner bumper at Kilbeggan (2m) on debut in June but failed to convince with his attitude when only sixth of 10 at Downpatrick since. Makes hurdles debut.
