Verdict

CHIPSRDOWN has been a different proposition since fitted with a visor and with this step up in trip expected to suit, she can defy the handicapper again. Bhean Saibhre has a lowly mark to exploit and is a huge threat if lining up here, with It's Good To Talk a potential improver.

5	Has responded really well to the application of a visor, bagging her first win at Leopardstown in June and improving another chunk when driven clear to follow up at Gowran last week. Up 8 lb but she's thriving and this step up in trip may unlock more. 1st Pick 5 Chipsrdown (Ire) Jockey: Mr A. P. Ryan Trainer: A. Slattery, Ireland J: Mr A. P. Ryan T: A.

22	Career-best success over hurdles at Kilbeggan (19f) last month and ran respectably back on the level at Dundalk on Friday. One to consider if turning out again quickly. 2nd Pick 22 Bhean Saibhre (Ire) Jockey: Mr L. P. Shanahan Trainer: Aidan Anthony Howard, Ireland J: Mr L. P.

7	Fair form in bumpers but well held in 4 Flat maidens. Handicaps more suitable though and he needs a market check given the yard he represents. 3rd Pick 7 It's Good To Talk (Ire) Jockey: Miss O. M.
