Formscan By Alan Magee - ITS BILBO (1) handles soft ground well and won twice over hurdles including a valuable handicap at the Limerick Christmas Festival last year. The selection also gained jumping experience against smart novice company in two chase outings last season and can defy topweight on his return to fences after a summer break. Killeemore Lad has won on the Flat and over hurdles and after filling the runner-up spot twice over fences, opened his account over the larger obstacles at Downpatrick last time. Luimneach has plenty of experience over fences and won over a similar trip at Kilbeggan on his penultimate start, while Astley is another to consider.
An extended handicap steeplechase for four years old and upwards (130 = 11st 12lbs)Penalties - Winner of a steeplechase after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each steeplechase won.

Quotes on Its Bilbo (FR)
Danny Cooper recommended him from France and liked his run back in the spring. He’s a fine big horse and hopefully will continue to improve. We won’t be in any mad panic this year and it’s lovely to have Matt (Fitzgerald, owner) here and winning. Darragh said he was a bit green, but he responded when he asked him. We might look at Leopardstown at Christmas and will give him a few runs to see where we are.After Its Bilbo (FR) finished 1st at Punchestown on Sat, 23rd Nov 2024 2m Maiden Hurdle Soft

Quotes on Drumgill (IRE)
He’s a magical horse. Things just didn’t go his way in Punchestown (last time) and he was very unlucky he didn’t win the Mayo National,. He got a fall in Galway and lost his way a little bit after it. That’s seven races he’s won now, he’s a phenomenal horse. He’s a well-bred horse and a good strong horse. The Dan Moore (January 10th) back here will probably be his next run. On soft ground he’s better over two miles.After Drumgill (IRE) finished 1st at Fairyhouse on Sat, 29th Nov 2025 2m 1f Hcap Chase Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Killeemore Lad (IRE)
It is great as the lads who are mainly based in Cork and mainly Urlingford in Kilkenny. They bought this lad during the year and he won in Hexham and Kilbeggan last year. I think he is improving and I ran him today with 10st1lb as I want to go for the amateur handicap at Galway with him, if he can get in off bottom weight. Andrew thinks he is improving all the time. He was unlucky in Listowel the last day when he was drawn 1 but missed the break, so it was game over although he stayed on at the finish. He needs to have good ground, he could go chasing and hopefully they'll continue to have great fun with him.After Killeemore Lad (IRE) finished 1st at Limerick on Wed, 12th Jun 2024 2m 1f Flat Hcap Good to Firm

Quotes on One Last Tango (IRE)
He had a promising run on his return when finishing fourth at Navan and he’s come on a little bit from it. I was a little bit concerned about the ground today, but he handled it well and it’s brilliant to get a winner here at Christmas for JP. It’s been a while since we had a Christmas winner and we’re over the moon. It seemed to go pretty straight forward and it’s nice to get it. Hopefully he might come back here for the Dublin Racing Festival. We’ll see how it goes between now and then and have a chat with Frank (Berry, racing manager).After One Last Tango (IRE) finished 1st at Leopardstown on Wed, 27th Dec 2023 2m Hcap Hurdle Soft to Heavy

Quotes on Luimneach (IRE)
He came from Dessie McDonogh's with the other lad (earlier winner in For The Night), . He's so big, he nearly gets away with it. He travelled like the other lad as well, very sweet. I was happy throughout the race. It was an easy watch. He tends, then, to kinda think about things when he gets to the front. He stuck at it there and got the job done, so it's brilliant.After Luimneach (IRE) finished 1st at Kilbeggan on Fri, 24th Jul 2026 2m 4f Hcap Chase Good
