Agusta Gold and Darling Miss are useful operators and connections will be hoping that their chasing experience will get them through, but Henry De Bromhead's SINORIA potentially looks a class apart. The form of her Listed hurdle success at Punchestown in February is rock solid, beating subsequent Grade 2 scorer Chosen Mate amongst others, and an impressive point-to-point winner 11 months earlier, she is expected to improve for this switch to fences.
Prediction : 1st Sinoria 2nd Agusta Gold 3rd Darling Miss

Everlastingpromise won readily at Clonmel and should remain competitive off a 12lb higher mark, but a chance is taken on ARTIC PEARL. Martin Brassil's charge was all the rage going into his seasonal reappearance at Punchestown nine days ago, but was far from fluent and eventually unseated Mark Walsh two from home. He could find this an easier jumping test, having looked likely to win here in March last year before being badly hampered two out and unseating his rider, and undoubtedly has the ability to win such a race. Captain Cobajay and Western Sea are other names to note.
Prediction : 1st Artic Pearl 2nd Everlastingpromise 3rd Captain Cobajay

REBEL OG had posted two solid hurdling performances before crashing out at the fifth at Tipperary and providing that nasty experience hasn't dented her confidence, this keen-going mare could lead them a merry dance. Uisce Solas won a couple of bumpers during the spring and warrants plenty of respect with top conditional jockey Darragh O'Keeffe booked for her jumping debut, with Fulysse worthy of a market check at least on her first outing for in-form handler Gavin Cromwell.
Prediction : 1st Rebel Og 2nd Uisce Solas 3rd Fulysse

FIGHT FOR LOVE ran on to finish third on his handicap bow at Fairyhouse earlier in the month and the six-year-old is entitled to build upon that effort despite being raised 2lb. Alice Johnston has placed on her last couple of starts and is likely to be competitive once again, while Musical Ava cannot be discounted as she drops back in distance.
Prediction : 1st Fight For Love 2nd Alice Johnston 3rd Musical Ava

PEREGRINE RUN has enjoyed a fine summer, winning on no less than five occasions over hurdles and fences, and can take advantage of an easier task than he encountered against Snow Falcon in a Grade 2 at Gowran earlier in the month. Elwood could step forward from his first outing of the season at Downpatrick and should pose a solid threat along with stable companion Westland Row, who may prove a happier individual back over timber.
Prediction : 1st Peregrine Run 2nd Elwood 3rd Westland Row

SOMETHING SWEET has been knocking hard on the door in starts at Navan and Clonmel of late and it will be disappointing if she doesn't go very close in this handicap. Kaletto is less exposed than the selection and makes appeal on her maiden victory at Wexford last month, while chances are also given to Trickey Trix and Open To The World, who performed well for the silver medal over fences last time.
Prediction : 1st Something Sweet 2nd Kaletto 3rd Open To The World

BOMBAY BLUE made a debut full of promise when finishing second in a Navan bumper last month and normal improvement makes him a big player second time up. The Bosses Oscar has performed well in the point-to-point sphere and has to be of interest now debuting for the powerful Gordon Elliott yard, while Out By Six also represents shrewd connections and Flash looks the pick of the newcomers.
Prediction : 1st Bombay Blue 2nd The Bosses Oscar 3rd Out By Six
