Sligo

Today, August 7, 2025Hurdle2m4fGood

Course winner BOSTON RAJJ has been in fine form and improved when third in a handicap at Killarney 3 weeks ago. He's fancied to record a second career success, though Ollie La Ba Ba looks well-handicapped if able to rediscover the form he showed last season. Of the rest, Great Ocean ought to be more competitive reverted to hurdles on just his second start of the season, with hat-trick seeking Cornmarket worthy of an honourable mention having won back-to-back races here.

    Verdict
    Arrives in good heart, performing creditably in handicaps prior to finishing fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, good to soft) 53 days ago (Boston Rajj finishing second that day). Back in a handicap but will need to take a step forward to get off the mark.

    Verdict
    Made a winning return to fences on debut for this yard (formerly with Neil Mulholland) in 21f maiden chase at Sligo last October. Struggled back in handicap company on reappearance at Cartmel in June but could come on for that run. Better expected back over hurdles with headgear refitted.

    C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023 but has bounced back to form returned to hurdles, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at this course (25.7f, good) 25 days ago. Should remain competitive.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful form over hurdles last season but has failed to fire this season. Had fallen over fences prior to finishing third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, when again not fluent. On a handy mark if he can recapture the form he showed last year.
