5YO plus | 2m 5f 150y | 4 Runners | Turf

Settings

Selected odds by:

Pied Piper^p,t²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| T: G Elliott| OR: 150

Very smart hurdler at best and looks to have retained much of that ability over fences, following up his chase debut victory with a facile win of a 3-runner novice chase at Killarney (23f) last month, his jumping more assured. Open to further progress in this sphere.

Form: 43/F51-1

Midnight Moonshine¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| T: William Harvey

Ran to a poor level on Rules debut. Never on on his first outing since leaving D. Deacon when fifth of 10 in novice chase (100/1) at Ballinrobe (17.2f, good) 14 days ago. Back up in trip but faces a nigh on impossible task in this company.

Form: 41349-5

Minella Sergeant^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| T: P J Gilligan

Struggled in bumpers and yet to make an impact over fences. Flattered when fourth of 5 in conditions chase at Listowel (80/1) 7 days ago, beaten 17¾ lengths. Has plenty to find. Engaged 1.30 Punchestown Sunday.

Form: 8780-44

Zenta³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| T: W P Mullins| OR: 140| D

Grade 1 winner as a juvenile and useful in handicaps thereafter. Has steadily improved over fences and was off the mark in a chase at Fairyhouse in February and backed that up with a creditable third in a stronger race over the same C&D. Badly hampered when below form last time. Should bounce back.

Form: 7/4P13P-

Forecasts

Pied Piper (4/6), Zenta (5/4), Minella Sergeant (25/1), Midnight Moonshine (50/1)

ZENTA never travelled with any fluency after being hampered early last time but had been shaping well over fences prior to that. Willie Mullins' mare could prove a tough nut to crack in receipt of weight from main rival Pied Piper, who faces his toughest test to date over fences, having yet to be fully extended in his two chase victories.
