Runners Spotlight

Timeless Treaty
Favorite

Won Down Royal maiden and Punchestown novice hurdle last summer; easy winner of course novice last month; beaten only 1.5l in course Grade 3 under Jack Kennedy two weeks ago; 5lb claimer offsets some of the burden here conceding plenty of weight to the field; contender.

Jockey: Josh Williamson(5)Trainer: Gordon Elliott
2
Amirite

Made all in Kilbeggan chase (3m1f, good) last July; fourth of 22 in Galway Plate later that month; tailed off in cross-country handicap chase at Cheltenham in December; should leave that run well behind down in trip back over hurdles.

Jockey: Darragh O'KeeffeTrainer: Henry De Bromhead
3
Blizzard Of Oz

Bumper and dual hurdle winner; ran well in defeat over fences last season and got off the mark on return in Wexford Listed contest (2m7f, good to yielding); has questions to answer after a trio of no-shows but is a definite player in this lineup back over timber.

Jockey: Paul TownendTrainer: W P Mullins
4
Western Walk

Very useful hurdler at up to 3m (rated 132); yet to shine in spell over fences, but not disgraced in Grade 1 behind Final Demand at Limerick in December; behind two smart types in Navan Grade 2 on latest; return to hurdling could spark a revival; Jack Kennedy's sole ride on the card.

Jockey: Jack KennedyTrainer: Jonathan Sweeney
5
Ottizzini

Three-time hurdle winner including 3m1f Ayr handicap in November 2024; two chase efforts since return didn't measure up; pulled up over hurdles at Navan in December; cheekpieces.
