Fair maiden on the Flat who was well backed and improved on yard/hurdles debut form when winning 14-runner novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (15.5f, good) 16 days ago, readily. This tougher but he's open to improvement.

Fair hurdler. First run since leaving John E. & Thomas Kiely when creditable second of 20 in novice hurdle (4/6) at Naas (16f, good to soft) 37 days ago. May do better again given that was her first start for 10 months.

Winner in hurdle at Naas in March. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Fairyhouse (16.1f, soft) 19 days ago, seeming to go wrong before third. Rates a likely candidate to bounce back.

Black Heather (Ire)

Age: 6
Weight: 12st 0lbs
Or: -

Good ground bumper winner who was impressive when making a winning hurdles debut at Naas (2m) in April. Turned in another solid effort making Flat debut when third in a Bellewstown maiden (12.2f) latest and made an interesting yard switch ahead of this return to timber.

Party President (Ire)

Age: 5
Weight: 11st 3lbs
Or: 109

Promising type. Two wins from 5 runs last season. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (17f, good, 9/2) 23 days ago, kept up to work. Expected to be bang there.

Timeform Verdict

PARTY PRESIDENT has proved a different proposition since switched to handicaps in this sphere, following up his Naas victory with a good deal to spare at Clonmel 23 days ago. Appealing as the type to progress further, he can make a bold bid to land the hat-trick returned to novice company. Black Heather, Chortal and Allo Al Khawaneej head up the dangers.

Betting Forecast

50/1 Ask The Bookie (Ire), 11/2 Allo Al Khawaneej, 7/1 Ma Belle Etoile (Ire), 14/1 King In Love (Fr), 7/2 Black Heather (Ire), 11/2 Party President (Ire)
