CLUAIN MEALA could be set for a swift return to action, as he had been sent off as the favourite in Tinahely last Sunday, only to get no further than the first. Whilst he did pull up in a very competitive Portrush maiden in the spring, this may be an opportunity for him. Set The Clock was not beaten very far in a Dromahane maiden on his debut in late April, whilst of the newcomers, Morning Fog and Park Forest cost their connections E80,000 and E65,000 respectively at the store sales last year.

CRYSTAL OUTLAW was only beaten by four lengths in a similar auction maiden at Necarne on his debut in May, and that would see him set the standard for this race which is confined to horses that were bought for E25,000 or less at the store sales last year. Texas Jim is the obvious threat, as he has plenty of experience to draw upon, including a recent effort in Castletown-Geoghegan which would give him the race fitness edge over the majority of these.

Although we have not seen POETRY MOTION in competitive action for over 500 days, this would look like an ideal opportunity for her to make a winning return to racing. The five-year-old was only beaten a length in Tattersalls by a horse that has subsequently won over hurdles, and that form should be strong enough to win a race like this. Prophetess Deborah has snippets of form, including a fine second in Ballyragget, whilst the newcomer Louma Kaleo, is related to plenty of winners over jumps in France.

Preview
KEPPOLS POET had a subsequent maiden winner behind him when finishing second in a dramatic Ballysteen maiden where the winner was subsequently sold to Gordon Elliott for E135,000. That could give him the edge in this, however, Poets Laureate would certainly not be winning out of turn following three consistent efforts in the spring. His stablemate Lone Star Lyric, and Presidential Order are others for the shortlist, whilst the newcomer Kartujano had cost E72,000 at the store sales which warrants respect.

DREAL DEAL has the advantage of a recent run to his name, and it was a notable effort too, as he managed to get within a neck of Lifetime Ambition in Castletown-Geoghegan. Magic Sadler was one of the leading open horses last season, winning five times in this division during the 2025/26 campaign and he is sure to go close. Of the track recruits, Redemption Day is a former Grade 1 bumper winner and could make his first appearance over fences here.

Preview
CHIEFS KINGDOM could only manage third when sent off as a short-priced favourite for his return to the pointing fields. With that run under his belt, it would be no surprise to see this horse, who has been placed five times under rules, take the necessary step forward here. Stablemate Pointe A Pitre has plenty of placed form to her name too and receives weight from several of these with the mares allowance; Elusive Gale finished second in Tinahely last weekend, whilst Magic Me has to be respected coming from the Colin Bowe stable.
