Runners Spotlight

NR
Duke Otto
Favorite

Gained a first win since 2023 with narrow success at Wexford in March; low-key Flat run since; may not have much in hand from his new mark but capable of being in the mix for the places.

Jockey: G B Noonan(5)Trainer: Patrick J Flynn
1
Party Dress

Maiden hurdle winner when last seen in this sphere and arrives on the back of a creditable Flat effort at the Curragh last month; that should put her spot on for her hurdle return and surely more to come in this sphere having just her fourth start over timber.

Jockey: Ricky DoyleTrainer: W McCreery
2
Ballycashin

Course winner at the start of the campaign; out of form over fences in recent times but return to timber may see her in a better light; probably needs a career best to defy a mark of 108.

Jockey: Donagh MeylerTrainer: Anthony Mullins
4
Pahlavi

18-race maiden who is 0-11 over hurdles; encouraging maiden hurdle run here in October but was tailed off in a handicap when last seen and has been off 187 days so may need this.

Jockey: Paddy Hanlon(7)Trainer: John Joseph Hanlon
5
Takarengo

1-34 over jumps and was tailed off over fences here when last seen; good chance he'll need this first run since 2023.

Jockey: Conor Stone-Walsh(3)Trainer: Thomas Mullins
