FormscanBy Gary Carson - The progressive FLICKER OF HOPE may be able to land his hat-trick. The Buck's Boum gelding won nicely at Clonmel in mid-May before following up with a bit to spare at Wexford later that month. He probably wants a bit of a cut in the ground so any showers would be welcome. I Am Spider Man takes a step up in trip after a convincing success here last month. He went up 10lb for that six-length success and is a leading contender again despite the hike. Early Arrival is another who scored by a wide margin last time and has to be respected. He went up 9lb for his easy 12-length Tramore success.
An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 80-109Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.

Quotes on Benny The Duke (IRE)
Garry Cribbin (agent) recommended Kieren to me and he came down to school him yesterday. He gave him a lovely ride and did exactly what I told him to do. it looked a lovely opportunity, he's a big gangly horse and it probably wouldn't be his track but I thought it was a winnable race. It's brilliant that he's got off the mark and he's not too bad. He's a horse that's going to stay a lot further. He'll get three miles down the line and today (2m2f) would have been as short as he wants. When he gets in tight he can be a little bit sloppy, but overall his jumping is plenty good enough and will get better with experience.After Benny The Duke (IRE) finished 1st at Ballinrobe on Mon, 22nd Aug 2022 2m 2f Maiden Hurdle Good

Quotes on Flicker Of Hope (FR)
He was good again, going up from two-and-a-half mile to three miles. He barely got there again and he's a nice horse to look forward to. We'll keep him going as he's probably a summer horse, he's probably not good enough to run over the winter. . We'll just try and pick a race with a bit of ease over the summer.After Flicker Of Hope (FR) finished 1st at Wexford on Wed, 29th May 2024 3m Hcap Hurdle Soft

Quotes on Mr Dibbs (IRE)
We were very happy with him coming here today and he looked fantastic during the week. It took him a few races to find his form this year. He was a bit disappointing this year, it could have been the ground, but he looked fitter and had a good coat on him today. He loves this ground and will keep going for the summer. He could go to Galway.After Mr Dibbs (IRE) finished 1st at Kilbeggan on Sun, 2nd Jun 2024 2m 4f Maiden Hurdle Good

Quotes on Housemartin (IRE)
Norman rode his first winner on this track and this was Josh's first ride over hurdles. I'm thrilled and also thankful to my other half (Kay) for putting him up. It is very special and we're delighted. The horse had shown a little bit but went off last year and when he ended up, he wouldn't beat me. We did a few changes though and he looks well now. Let's hope this is the first of many for him (Williamson).After Housemartin (IRE) finished 1st at Clonmel on Thu, 26th Oct 2023 2m Hcap Hurdle Heavy

Quotes on I Am Spider Man (IRE)
the horses are in great form and luckily Philip was able to ride them today as, against my advice, he recently appealed against an eight-day (careless riding) suspension, but won. . this horse was brought to a standstill at Ballinrobe when a horse fell in front of him and Philip didn't abuse him afterwards. He said he was lucky to stand up at the second and it took him a while to find his stride but he was off a nice mark. He has the same mark over fences so that's another option.After I Am Spider Man (IRE) finished 1st at Sligo on Tue, 11th Jun 2024 2m 4f Hcap Hurdle Good

Quotes on Amaulino (FR)
We bought the horse initially from Colin Bowe with this race in mind. . Leopardstown's win took me completely by surprise, I was shocked. . Coming here today I said to Andrew Ring about the trip and he said 'he settles that well and he's that lazy he'll be grand!'. It's brilliant for Jim Matthews who has been such a big supporter of ours and I'm so pleased for him. . I would say what we will do is go to Aintree for the race before the National as a big day out and then put him away for something like the Midlands National in Kilbeggan. There's plenty in him - he beat Kaiser Black in a beginners' chase. If Kaiser Black was here today what price would he be? Don't get me wrong he's not Kaiser Black but he's a nice handicapper. . He was showing us plenty at home in his homework and we were expecting him to win in Down Royal and he completely disappointed. Andrew came in and said he doesn't handle soft ground. He handles good ground and he seems to be better on good ground. He should be a good fun horse for the summer. . Great ride from Andrew and he is a big part of our team.After Amaulino (FR) finished 1st at Downpatrick on Sun, 24th Mar 2019 3m 4f Hcap Chase Good to Yielding
