12:45 Leopardstown Tips

The Nagger Reidy won a hurdle race over 2m 2f and finished second in a hurdle race over 2m 4f at Naas on his latest outing last month. Being upped in trip to 2m 5f should suit. He seems well treated and could well be able to go one better and win this race.

Giant Haystacks won a hurdle race at 2m 4f and was fifth in a hurdle race over 2m 4f at Thurles on his latest outing last month. Being upped in trip to 2m 5f should suit. He seems well treated and could well be able to win this race.

Gambled on when 3rd on reappearance on penultimate start, and then shaped well last time when runner-up to a decent one.

Clear excuses latest with trip and ground and may not have been 100 percent. Back to a more suitable trip here and seems to go well fresh. With the jockey's claim, can go close.

This horse put in a poor run on seasonal debut at Galway, but I fancy this horse has been targeted for this race. He is rated 18 lb higher over fences, and in his last two handicap races he started as favourite and finished in the frame in both those runs.

Jolie Jewel looks a solid each-way contender in this hurdle, arriving off a 4l win at Thurles days back off 6 lb lower, where she travelled strongly and held up before quickening clear. This confirms the pedigree of Spider Flight has the stamina over these distances from 2m to 3m. Hood back on, and James Smith claiming 5 lb here.

This one can get among the six places on offer with the ground looking much more in his favour than the last time. Decent maiden 2nd at Punchestown in October on good/yielding over this trip. No chance with the winner but pulled 18L clear of the third. Mark looks competitive.

The consistent Warm In Gorey looks interesting here returned to hurdles. He has only won 2 of his 36 starts, although both were over hurdles, but has been placed on 15 occasions, including in 6 of his last 7 starts. His last win came at Thurles in November 2024 off a mark of 96, and though 6 lbs higher, he looks sure to go well. He is a good each-way bet with 6 places on offer.

Two second places and a chase win in the last five outings and still on a competitive mark. Going and distance suit, and at an interesting each-way price.

Cornmarket is a good stayer who has picked up three wins over these distances this year. He was excellent in Sligo and now drops 7 lbs for the almost similar hurdles race and is therefore likely to impress.

This is wide open. Gone For Tea looks a big price at 66-1, making a second start for Ian Patrick Donoghue, with cheekpieces tried now. She ran some decent races and won a mares' handicap hurdle for Peter Fahey before a previous absence.
