4:15 Thurles Going Good / Distance - 2m 6f

Pool Value: £6.93

Last season's King George winner HEWICK was second in a Grade 1 hurdle last May and has a slight edge here over Asterion Forlonge based on a clash at Leopardstown in December, admittedly when neither horse was seen to best effect. The Mullins horse also had a Grade 1 second to his credit last spring, behind Teahupoo at Punchestown.[Alan Sweetman]

No.	Selection	Form		Guide	ToteWin	TotePlace
1	Amirite D J O'Keeffe / H De Bromhead	9yrs / 11st 0lb 5-2907 Spotlight	148	8/1
Amirite 1-12 over fences, has failed to add to his score since landing a beginners' event at Fairyhouse in 2022; has often been well supported in major handicaps including when unplaced favourite for the 2023 Irish Grand National; 2024 form included second in the Midlands National at Kilbeggan; almost three years since he won a maiden hurdle by 30l
2	Asterion Forlonge P Townend / W P Mullins	11yrs / 11st 0lb 612-65 Spotlight	165	11/10	3.00	1.10
Asterion Forlonge Most recent of his seven wins came in a two-runner chase at Cork last March; fine effort subsequently when chasing home Teahupoo in Grade 1 Stayers' Hurdle at Punchestown; below his best in two high-class staying hurdles this season, though not beaten far in fifth in the Galmoy at Gowran.
3	Hewick P Hanlon / J J Hanlon	10yrs / 11st 0lb -23257 Spotlight	150	7/4	2.40
Hewick Last season's King George winner; given a break after a fine Grade 1 second over hurdles at Auteuil last May; went close in a Grade 1 chase at Down Royal in November; below par effort in Grade 1 staying hurdle at Leopardstown in December (2 3/4l in front of Asterion Forlonge); sights lowered now after Irish Gold Cup run; improved ground conditions will suit.
4	Kilcruit S F O'Keeffe / W P Mullins	10yrs / 11st 0lb /00-57 Spotlight	127	9/1
Kilcruit Has run only four times since a runaway Punchestown festival handicap chase success in 2023; has failed to beat a single opponent in two runs this season, the first in a hurdle race at Limerick
5	Typical Thomas A P Kelly / James Andrew Fahey	8yrs / 11st 0lb 166P-6 Spotlight	118	50/1
Typical Thomas Did well to win a Listed handicap chase at Cork last season; failed to sustain the improvement shown on that occasion; lacks a recent run and is out of his depth in this company.
6	Aodhan May P Byrnes / C Byrnes	9yrs / 10st 7lb 21-URR Spotlight	139	25/1	1.90	1.02
Aodhan May Heavy-ground specialist; in fine form last season over hurdles with four wins in handicaps at 2m4f-3m1f; has blotted her copybook in recent months with an unseat and two refusals, the most recent three in a Grade 3 mares hurdle at Punchestown.
