Best of these on bumper from on the basis of Cheltenham sixth, disappointed at Aintree
1	Backtonormal b/br J:Miss A B O'Connor T:Ms Margaret Mullins	J:Miss A B O'Connor T:Ms Margaret Mullins	164	—	231-	-	-	-	286d	—	—	+1	20.3	0.88/1	7/2 22%
His bumper form has worked out well, likely to be well primed for this, should go close
3	La Vega Moon Bay J:Miss P Elvin(4) T:John Joseph Hanlon	J:Miss P Elvin(4) T:John Joseph Hanlon	160	p	U-11P4	-	117	87	27d	—	—	-4	1.6	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Two wins in points, shaped quite well at Limerick, may find the bumper winners too strong
6	Stage Lady Bay J:Sarah Kavanagh(4) T:Norman Lee	J:Sarah Kavanagh(4) T:Norman Lee	153	ht	37-0	-	101	-	29d	—	—	-1	0.5	25.00/1	100/1 1%
Showed promise when third in a bumper at Limerick in 2022, has failed to build on that
5	Getaway Erin Bay J:Miss J Walton(2) T:John Joseph Hanlon	J:Miss J Walton(2) T:John Joseph Hanlon	153	—	04	-	97	50	24d	—	—	-1	0.4	37.50/1	150/1 1%
Soundly beaten on both starts, trainer has a more obvious chance with La Vega Moon.
2	The Fairy Man Bay J:Miss Charlotte Butler(7) T:Eoin Doyle	J:Miss Charlotte Butler(7) T:Eoin Doyle	164	—	890	-	78	48	30d	—	—	-1	0.2	50.00/1	200/1 0%
Down the field on his first three starts, could be a handicap prospect in due course.
