Charlie Chute Memorial Handicap Chase

Watchman Racing
Stepped up on previous chasing efforts when winning 11-runner maiden at Wexford in July by 5½ lengths from Mickie Angel. Ran a cracker when chasing home Grann's Boy in a listed handicap hurdle at Galway next time but never looked like justifying support back off lower chase mark last time.

An Dun Racing Syndicate
Confirmed promise of stable debut when winning 6-runner maiden chase at Wexford in August by 4½ lengths from Jackson Lamb. Backed that up despite racing from 8 lb out of the handicap when 4¼ lengths third of 10 to Jalila Moriviere at Killarney last time. One to consider.

Brendan T O'Sullivan
Just a maiden success to her name over fences but turned best effort in some time when chasing home Kings Hill in the Galway Blazers in July. Capable of being involved if building on that.

Downtown Syndicate/F W Healy/Philip Bowe
Fairly useful winning hurdler who ran well on several occasions over fences last season without getting his head in front but hasn't been in the same form this time around. Failed to see race out first 2 starts this time around, though, and posed no threat back over hurdles last time.

Desmond Kenneally
Useful hurdler in 2024. Ran better than for a while when 12½ lengths fourth in first-time cheekpieces at Kilbeggan (2½m, good) in late-May. Ran poorly when last seen over hurdles in July, though, and has a bit to prove at present.

Twelve runs since last win in 2025. Been kept busy this summer, going closest in minor event over hurdles at Kilbeggan when beaten 2 lengths into third in August. Carried no win threat in better races since, though, and looks up against it.

Molly Willis & Paul Willis & Brian Groarke & Tom Groarke
Quickly made up into a useful chaser last season, winning a handicap at Cheltenham before running respectably in Ultima back there and shaping better than being pulled up suggests in the Scottish National. Drop back in trip will suit and major claims if fully wound up for this return.
