Order Of St George gelding has shown a modest level of ability in two point-to-points; related to winners but has been off since March and is likely best watched on Rules' debut.

Jockey: John Shinnick(3)Trainer: Terence O'Brien
1
Vitorio Piel

Punchestown festival bumper (2m, yielding) winner; had an excuse (struck into) when disappointing on hurdles debut at the same venue in October; much better back there a month later when beaten 1.5l by Yeshil (20.5f, heavy); has to give weight away but should be thereabouts.

Jockey: Donagh MeylerTrainer: Emmet Mullins
2
Better Times

Didn't jump well when well beaten on hurdles debut over this C&D (gd-yld) but better effort on latest when a 28l fifth at Fairyhouse in first-time hood (retained); more needed to take this.

Jockey: Ricky DoyleTrainer: Stephen Gerard Carey
3
Bohemian Bay

Placed in a point-to-point but long odds and tailed off on both starts in maiden hurdles; steps up in trip now but hard to fancy.

Jockey: Phillip EnrightTrainer: Sean Joseph Allen
4
Bon Bon Fizz

Pour Moi gelding out of an unraced dam was beaten when falling at the last in sole point-to-point start at Dromahane; likely best watched on Rules' debut.

Jockey: Eoin Staples(5)Trainer: Paul O'Flynn
