4:43 Punchestown Going Heavy / Distance - 2m 4f

Pool Value: £0.00

An opening mark of 100 gives BUTCHERS BILL a realistic chance of making a winning start in handicap company. Likely dangers are One And Only who was in good form at Cork in December, and True Destiny, also in fine shape before a break. Mighty Soldier is another possibility. [Alan Sweetman]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide
1	Butchers Bill Sam Ewing / G Elliott	5yrs / 12st 0lb 9-764 Spotlight	97	5/1
Butchers Bill Struggled on first three starts; showed improvement when fourth at Fairyhouse in first-time cheekpieces; brother to the talented Romeo Coolio is potentially interesting in this grade
2	Our Uncle Jack Mr D M Fitzgerald / M P Fitzgerald	9yrs / 12st 0lb 6/741- Spotlight	101	12/1
Our Uncle Jack Lightly-raced sort; emphatic winner of a 2m maiden at Tramore in October 2023 on only his second run over hurdles; absent since; may need this.
3	Annamaymurt J G Gilligan / P J Gilligan	8yrs / 11st 13lb 6062PP Spotlight	103	20/1
Annamaymurt Best effort when second in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Limerick; pulled up in a handicap at the same venue last month; ran at Fairyhouse on Saturday.
4	One And Only P T Enright / O Mckiernan	7yrs / 11st 11lb -24F12 Spotlight	102	3/1
One And Only Was in touch when falling at the eighth at Fairyhouse on first run after a break; backed up Cork win in December with second at same venue five days later.
5	Ilbdare P K Donovan / M M Mcniff	5yrs / 11st 6lb -00358 Spotlight	100	14/1
Ilbdare Third in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Sligo last July and ran creditably over further at Galway in September; needs to step up from mid-field run at Listowel later that month.
6	True Destiny J S Mcgarvey / N C Kelly	10yrs / 11st 6lb 798822 Spotlight	104	14/1
True Destiny Second in races at Limerick and Sligo last October; good chance if reproducing that form; seems best suited by the Sligo track which is unlike this one in character.
7	Tom Kelly J Smith / K Smith	8yrs / 11st 5lb 7P-P9P Spotlight	99	28/1
Tom Kelly Lost form for his previous trainer; no sign of a recovery in two starts for this stable; addition of blinkers will need to make a major difference.
8	King In Love S F O'keeffe / S Aherne	5yrs / 11st 4lb 7-8880 Spotlight	100	18/1
King In Love Ordinary form in maidens, no encouragement from two handicap attempts before a break.
9	Smackwater Jack R A Doyle / Mrs D Foster	11yrs / 11st 4lb /P867- Spotlight	102	33/1
Smackwater Jack Winner for Olly Murphy in 2019; four 2024 runs for current yard not at all encouraging.
10	Mighty Soldier K C Sexton / James Andrew Fahey	6yrs / 11st 3lb -07973 Spotlight	96	3/1
Mighty Soldier Ran his best race so far when staying on for third over a slightly shorter trip at this venue last month; may reach the money again with the extra distance in his favour.
11	Esticky End D Robinson / Tom Mcguinness	7yrs / 11st 0lb P8090 Spotlight	102	40/1
Esticky End 5-37 on Flat, 0-5 over hurdles, moderate form in two handicap attempts; refused to race on a recent visit to Dundalk; in good form at that venue late last year
12	Huscari C P Mcnamara / E Mcnamara	6yrs / 10st 13lb 90B8 Spotlight	95	33/1
Huscari 2m winner on AW in Britain; undistinguished maiden hurdle form but may find her level in handicaps
13	Kir Royal Blou D Meyler / W J Burke	5yrs / 10st 13lb 0-00 Spotlight	98	33/1
Kir Royal Blou Three-figure odds in three maiden hurdle outings and has run accordingly; up against it on handicap debut after a break of nine months.
14	Another Question D King / Miss J M Lee	7yrs / 10st 9lb 09005P Spotlight	97	40/1
Another Question Moderate fifth at Limerick in his first handicap, 33-1 chance when pulled up at Tramore.
15	Johnny Cakes T Power Roche / P J Rothwell	6yrs / 10st 6lb 7-4406 Spotlight	100	15/2
Johnny Cakes Fourth in a pair of Ballinrobe handicap hurdles at around 2m6f last May/August; never in the first three; attracted support at Clonmel last time when unplaced; blinkers may help
16	Calypso Bluebird G B Noonan / E Mccarthy	6yrs / 10st 1lb 0-00 Spotlight	95	33/1
Calypso Bluebird Weak form in maiden hurdles over shorter distances; hard to make a case for her.
