FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having lost out by the narrowest of margins at Punchestown last month, the Henry De Bromhead trained GREAT BEAR can gain compensation. A consistent sort since switching his attention to chasing, the eight-year-old ran his best race to date when going down by just a short head at the Kildare track. Raised 3lb subsequently, the son of Dansili should have more to offer. Bythesametoken may have needed his reappearance at Aintree in April but shaped much better when third at Ballinrobe last time. The Ross O'Sullivan trained Fame And Glory gelding is a former course winner who is suited to a flat track such as this. Time Marches On won over course and distance on his penultimate start. Pulled up last time, he needs to recapture that earlier form if he is to be a contender.
An extended handicap steeplechase for five years old and upwards (135 = 11st 12lbs)Penalties - Winner of a steeplechase after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each steeplechase won.

Quotes on Bythesametoken (IRE)
that was brilliant. He got an awful fall when he was going to win over fences at Leopardstown (in March 2022) and completely lost his confidence. He didn't jump or do anything right for a long time so we ended up giving up running over fences. He got his confidence back over hurdles and in fairness to Robbie (Dunne, previous jockey) he said to try him again over fences. I was nervous he ran well and jumped great at Listowel last week. Keith (Donoghue) said he felt like a different horse today, his confidence was up and he was coming down in grade from a 0-140 to a 0-116. he deserved to get his day, it has been a while since his last win and it is great to have the Monroes (owners) who have been a great part of us. When John (Monroe, former trainer) passed away a number of years ago the horses came to us as the lads were busy with businesses and their pub. We've had great success and I'm delighted for them.After Bythesametoken (IRE) finished 1st at Killarney on Sun, 1st Oct 2023 2m 1f Hcap Chase Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Good As Hell (IRE)
She has won again so it's grand and for some reason she isn't as good going right-handed. She would have been Brian's (Hayes) ride only he chose to go to Kilbeggan and Niall was able to claim 7lb. There's a mares' handicap hurdle at Listowel where she is only rated 109 so that's the attraction. There may be a reason she is that bit better over fences than hurdles but we'll have one go over hurdles.After Good As Hell (IRE) finished 1st at Killarney on Fri, 25th Aug 2023 2m 1f Hcap Chase Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Mister Wilson (IRE)
I'd say the flat track was a big help to him as he needs an easy two miles. I couldn't see him staying two-miles on heavy ground during the winter and they got racing early enough today which wasn't ideal, but he had been banging on the door and was due a win. His hurdle experience stood to him but is still learning. He wears a hood, is a keen-going sort but he's getting there.After Mister Wilson (IRE) finished 1st at Listowel on Mon, 5th Jun 2023 2m Maiden Hurdle Good to Yielding

Quotes on Time Marches On (IRE)
it is great to get that win out of him as we were very disappointed at Tramore but I feel he didn't handle the track and never got going. I told Conor (Stone Walsh) to get him out handy today and keep him on the outer to give him as much light as he could. He has plenty ability but keeps a little for himself so I told Conor to be as positive as he could. He is a summer horse, that's his ideal ground and is a nice horse to have. It is great to get a winner for Robcour.After Time Marches On (IRE) finished 1st at Tipperary on Thu, 9th May 2024 2m Hcap Chase Yielding

Quotes on Presenting Lad (IRE)
I thought he'd win the last day (third at Wexford) but they walked around and he got very free. Philip Enright said then to put a line through it, he'd win the next day, and he was right. He probably should have won for the lads I bought him off, I'd be friendly with them. He had a race won here last year and went upside down at the last. He'll come back for that same race this year, touch wood. He's in good order. The false start didn't help him today as he can get a bit revved up but it worked out grand.After Presenting Lad (IRE) finished 1st at Roscommon on Tue, 14th Jun 2022 2m Hcap Hurdle Good

Quotes on Mc Alpine (IRE)
I was expecting him to run well but thought he might have needed it because he hasn't ran since May. We had a little job done with him in May and it seems to have worked. He had been working well at home and we were very happy with him although he is a horse who carries a little bit of condition so can be deceiving. Oliver (Barden, owner) actually mentioned to me today that he was looking on the heavier side but I was happy with him. He is quite gross and always carries a bit of condition. He has been hugely disappointing and has been second and placed I don't know how many times. He was always beaten by good horses on the day.After Mc Alpine (IRE) finished 1st at Listowel on Mon, 20th Sep 2021 2m Hcap Hurdle Good to Yielding
