Killarney Race 5 - Gerard O'Sullivan Memorial Novice Chase
BUTCH CASSIDY (3) returned from a break in a steeplechase at Fairyhouse however was unable to finish. Worth giving another chance in what looks an easier contest. DA CAPO GLORY (5) performed below his best in recent starts including at Cheltenham and Punchestown. Cannot be ruled out if replicating best form. SANDOR CLEGANE (1) bounced back from a disappointing effort at Cheltenham to score impressively a steeplechase over 4123m at Down Royal. Sure to have plenty of support in the market. D ART D ART (4) struggled past two hurdle starts which would be a concern. Place claims possible if improving.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming finished tenth of 23 starters at Cheltenham on March 12 over 5330m, 13 len behind Ask Brewster carrying 71.5kg at $13. Last start favourite; won by 0.5 len Down Royal on April 12 over 4123m defeating Meet And Greet with 73kg at $2.10 in a steeplechase. Has the ability to be in the finish. No reason he cannot get the job done again.

Second-up today. Fresh up after three months pulled up at Fairyhouse on April 6 over 4928m. Previously second-up finished third of 10 starters at Punchestown on December 11 over 4626m, on rain affected going; 4 len behind Kurasso Blue carrying 75.5kg at $7. Fitter and is a definite winning chance.

Useful type. Last outing didn't finish the race at Punchestown in the LR on April 30 over 4727m. Start before finished eighth of 24 runners at Cheltenham on March 13 over 4123m, on slow going 8 len behind Air Of Entitlement with 73.5kg at $81. Holds strong claims on his best form.
