Downpatrick Betting Odds

Proved a different proposition to previously when winning 14-runner restricted maiden chase at this track last month, beating Saunton Surf ½ length. Solid claims if building on that effort back in a handicap.

Won handicap chase and hurdle last season. Not disgraced when mid-division at Limerick last month, but likely to need a bit more respite before becoming of interest.

Fairly useful winner at 17f over hurdles who took reasonably well to chasing last season but was well held on handicap debut in this sphere when last seen. Heavy ground may well have been a factor, though, and no surprise were he to fare better now.

Quirky maiden hurdler who produced better effort over fences when 20¼ lengths sixth of 10 to Journey So Far in maiden at Tramore last month. Feasibly treated now tackling a handicap in this sphere.

Rejuvenated by the application of blinkers and return to front-running tactics when winning 10-runner handicap at this course last month, beating Just For Yuse by 11 lengths. A 7 lb rise for that win is not excessive, but his profile suggests he's far from certain to be in the same form.

Runner-up in a maiden at Wexford on standout effort over hurdles. Made no impact in handicaps in that sphere but was runner-up in a point on debut and also related to a winning pointer, so no surprise if he were to make a better chaser.

Better than ever when winning 12-runner handicap chase at Tramore (2¾m) in April and is best excused his effort there last month and doing too much too soon. Remains nicely treated on old form but consistency and a tendency to make mistakes remains a concern.

Won 2½m mares handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan last season. Yet to match that form in 2 starts over fences, though at least hit the places at Tramore last time.

Won impressively over fences at Ayr last December and shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when well held in handicap hurdle at this course on return from 4-month absence last time. Entitled to come on from that effort but has stamina to prove at this trip.

First run since leaving Gordon Elliott when a respectable fourth of 12 in handicap chase at Tramore (2¾m) in April but went backwards from that effort in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan last month.

Runner-up twice in handicap hurdles at Thurles last season but ran poorly back over fences at this course when last seen. Yard is going well and has gone well fresh in the past, so market is likely to prove highly informative,

Ran well in listed handicaps at Fairyhouse and Punchestown earlier last spring but has shown little since returning from a 10-month absence this season.

Fair winning hurdler and chaser at his best, though lightly raced and little impact since 2024/25.

Veteran who failed to stay the marathon trip when fourth of 8 in hunter at Downpatrick (29f, good to soft) last month. Back down markedly in trip reverting to open handicaps.
