Lumper Lane Syndicate
Fairly useful Flat/hurdle winner who confirmed recent promise over fences when landing 7-runner maiden at Downpatrick in August by 2½ lengths from Jabbar. Looks to have been handed a fair mark on handicap chase debut and is very much one for the shortlist.

Matt Fitzgerald
Returned to hurdling after a stint chasing with a gutsy success in 2m listed handicap at Limerick last season. Produced best effort to date when 6¾ lengths third of 19 to Sainte Lucie in Cork handicap when last seen in April. Reverts to chasing off lower mark and remains open to improvement.

Cheeky Pups Syndicate
Won couple of fairly useful handicaps for Jamie Snowden before losing form and being sold for £18,000. Didn't show much on debut for this yard last time but a dual chase winner in the past and looks fairly treated on his most recent hurdling success now back over fences.

John P McManus
Has made a positive start for current yard this season, building on reappearance effort to open his chase account in handicap at Kilbeggan in July. Backed that up with a good performance when chasing home Chosen Shant at Wexford and one to consider faced with this similar scenario.

Alan Jamieson Site Services Limited
Headstrong sort but settling better of late and has come close to snapping a lengthy losing run twice in handicap hurdles at Killarney this summer. Wasn't suited by the way the race developed last time and reverts to chasing for first time in nearly 3 years from potentially lenient mark.

Miss K McNeilly
Maiden who placed in a bumper prior to offering little at long odds in maiden/novice hurdles. Did run to a fairly useful level first 2 starts over fences in the spring, but below that level in both codes since. Needs to bounce back now tackling a handicap in this sphere.

Philip Molony & T A Bruton & R H Fowler
Fairly useful chaser who failed to hit the heights of the previous season in 2025/26. Has been given a chance by the handicapper but others more persuasive after 9 months off.

John Patrick Ryan
Thirteen 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 again looks up against it.
