Mickey Hulie
MICKEY HULIE has shown improved form since upped in distance, finding plenty to win here last time with the runner-up scoring on his next start. He could still have more to offer now that he's up and running, so gets the vote ahead of Phildante, who has dropped to a handy mark, and Ballyredinkingston.

Has benefited from going up in trip on his recent starts, digging deep for success in 12-runner handicap at this course (2¾m) 5 weeks ago. That form has been working out well and he could be capable of following up.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLimerick2m 6fSoftHurdle1/12Kilbeggan3m 154yGood to Yielding (Good in places)Hurdle7/16Limerick2m 6f 170yHeavyHurdle3/15Naas2m 7f 180ySoft to HeavyHurdle2/12Gowran Park2mHeavyHurdle11/15- 4The Rebel CountyJ: Alan O'SullivanT: G.

Sole victory under Rules came in a hunter chase last spring. However, he's run well in handicap chases the last twice, third of 12 at Downpatrick (3m) 19 days ago despite a bad mistake 2 out. Needs to transfer that form to hurdling (has lower mark in this discipline).DateCourseDistGoingTypePosDownpatrick2m 7f 150yGoodChase3/12Tramore2m 6fGood (Good to Yielding in places)Chase4/11Killarney2m 7fGood to Yielding (Good in places)Chase4/5Limerick2m 3f 60ySoft to Heavy (Heavy in places)Hurdle7/13Clonmel2m 7f 55ySoftChase7/14- 14Lady AquarelleJ: Shane O'CallaghanT: Thomas Cooper, Ireland009-87Age 59/111/110/1

Took her form up a notch in handicaps last season, getting off the mark in 2m mares event at Clonmel in April. Sent off favourite for chasing debut but was making little impression when falling at the last in handicap here (2¼m) 6 weeks ago.

Took advantage of career-low mark at Clonmel (2½m) in May. However, he wasn't in quite the same form when 11¼ lengths second of 15 at this course (2½m) 5 weeks ago, so bounce back needed.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLimerick2m 3f 200ySoftHurdle2/15Clonmel2m 3f 116yGood to YieldingHurdle1/16Tramore2m 4f 110yYieldingHurdle6/16Tramore2m 5fSoft (Heavy in Places)Hurdle15/16Wexford2m 4fYieldingHurdle6/13- 7Gortmore LadyJ: D.

Was in the process of running well when brought down approaching 2 out (in fourth at the time) in handicap at Clonmel (19f) in March. Raced too freely upped to 3m after 12 weeks off when sixth of 15 at Kilbeggan 17 days ago, so he merits consideration over this trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKilbeggan3m 100yGoodHurdle6/15Clonmel2m 2f 188ySoft (Soft to Heavy in places)Hurdlebd/15Naas2m 2f 180ySoft to HeavyHurdle11/11Naas2mSoft to HeavyHurdle15/16Clonmel2m 3f 97yHeavyHurdle10/18- 13PhildanteJ: Gearoid Patrick BrouderT: Eoin Doyle, Ireland2006-64Age 914/114/112/1

Best effort when runner-up at Wexford last summer, her third start of the campaign. Stepped forward from this season's return when fourth of 15 at Sligo (21f) 23 days ago, so she looks interesting from a mark now 6 lb lower than for her Wexford second.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSligo2m 4f 162yYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdle4/15Downpatrick2m 5f 180yGood to YieldingHurdle6/15Tramore2m 5fSoft (Heavy in Places)Hurdle6/16Gowran Park2m 3f 180yHeavyHurdle10/19Ballinrobe2m 6f 218yGoodHurdle12/16- 17Captain KateJ: Patrick Michael O'BrienT: E.
