Hampered in both handicaps so there may well be improvement to come; tongue-tie tried

Deserved Clonmel win last month but 6lb rise makes this tough enough.

Last month's C&D 2nd to Destivelle his best run for a while; same mark so has his chance
8	Bowgate Street b Danny Gilligan · M Flannery	Danny Gilligan · M Flannery	155	t	760355	87	105	92	27d	—	—	+5	13	10/1 9%

Better chaser unable to exploit lower hurdles mark over the summer; may need this
9	Bringsty b Conor Stone-Walsh · Noel C Kelly	Conor Stone-Walsh · Noel C Kelly	155	—	-70635	87	105	84	41d	—	—	+7	13	18/1 5%
Five-time Flat winner is 0-9 hurdling, penultimate Killarney third would give him claims
17	Dontdooddson b Philip Donovan(3) · Darren Collins	Philip Donovan(3) · Darren Collins	143	—	501479	75	104	94	57d	—	—	+7	10.3	28/1 3%
Wexford winner in July but too keen of late; others look more likely

Handicap debut run at Listowel leaves him with lots to find

Last month's Flat comeback run should have brought her on and blinkers now tried
R19	Royal Time b James Smith(5) · Shane Crawley	James Smith(5) · Shane Crawley	162	t	280-30	94	101	-	14d	0W/0P 1 run	—	+8	12	33/1 3%
Returned last month and well held in both attempts chasing; seems an unlikely one; reserve

Not easy to see where improvement is to come from unless soft ground suits
6	Moulane West b J J Slevin · Mark Michael McNiff	J J Slevin · Mark Michael McNiff	161	t	185479	93	103	100	27d	—	—	+8	11.8	40/1 2%
Shot up the handicap after Sligo win in May, remains opposable off this mark
2	Answering b Mr D Doyle(7) · Timothy Doyle	Mr D Doyle(7) · Timothy Doyle	166	t	-098UP	98	104	79	21d	—	—	+10	12.7	50/1 2%
C&D maiden winner but struggling to make an impact in handicaps; tongue-tie now tried
16	Mayo For Sam b Cian Quirke · M Flannery	Cian Quirke · M Flannery	146	—	009-00	78	101	57	44d	—	—	+5	7.6	66/1 1%
0-5 hurdling, well held at Galway latest; needs to improve plenty and wants better ground
18	Slea Head b Shane O'Callaghan(5) · Peter Maher	Shane O'Callaghan(5) · Peter Maher	140	—	000580	72	93	63	101d	—	—	+4	6	66/1 1%
Moderate effort when last seen in August at Ballinrobe; hard to make a case for
NR	Spring Evening b Michael Kenneally(7) · Yvonne Latta	Michael Kenneally(7) · Yvonne Latta	165	—	4/09-	97	100	-	—	—	—	—	11.8	—
Back from the Flat; worth a market watch in first handicap hurdle on ground he handles
NR	Glory Sky ch Liam Quinlan · Ray Hackett	Liam Quinlan · Ray Hackett	146	b	000-77	78	100	88	35d	—	—	—	7	—
Fair effort over C&D last month but needs to improve plenty; blinkers replace cheekpieces
NR	La Tulipe Noire b TBC · Aengus King	· Aengus King	152	p	00P9-P	84	91	48	—	—	—	—	8.5	—
Progressive Flat handicapper of late; player if transferring that improvement; reserve

Moderate form under both codes; absent since May and seems best watched
