FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A dual winner over hurdles, the Colm Murphy-trained TANGENTAL is unquestionably well handicapped over fences. However, aside from a promising third at Down Royal in April, the eight-year-old has yet to replicate that form since going chasing. Returning here off the back of a summer break, the gelding is worth another chance to show what he is capable of. Plain Or Battered has to be of interest on what is only his second start over fences. The Philip Rothwell-trained gelding, who is rated higher over hurdles, was placed in a Hunter Chase before falling early on his only subsequent chase outing. Topweight Ishan looks very well treated in this discipline but may just prefer a stiffer stamina test.

Quotes on Ishan (FR)
He loves those conditions and stays really well,. That’s his second time winning around here too. I’m delighted that he’s been able to handle those couple of jumps up in grade. Phillip said it inconvenienced him bypassing the second last. He’s got a good mark over fences so hopefully he’ll be grand going forward. He’s entered at Fairyhouse on New Year’s Day but I doubt he’d go there. He had a hard race today and we’ll mind him — he’s only five going six.After Ishan (FR) finished 1st at Limerick on Thu, 28th Dec 2023 3m Hcap Hurdle Soft to Heavy

Quotes on Portarlington (IRE)
that’s just his second run for me and Keith (Donoghue, brother) rode him the last day and loved him. He said he gallops and stays but didn’t come down the hill that day in Limerick on quick ground. He was good today and Josh gave him a great ride. He might go again at Navan on Sunday: the two-mile race might be a bit short for him but it’s a big stiff track.After Portarlington (IRE) finished 1st at Fairyhouse on Tue, 12th Nov 2024 2m 4f Hcap Hurdle Good

Quotes on Plain Or Battered (IRE)
That's Conor's fifth winner. He started with me just over a year ago and started with no experience. For the chances he is getting his strike rate has been extremely good. He is good value for his claim and this horse is an ideal one for him to ride as he has plenty of experience,. I got him off the Dooly's and Noel is still involved with him. The Dooly's are fabulous people and they gave me the opportunity to buy three horses and I'm really pleased to have them. They are great friends and are lovely people, so I can't say enough thanks to Noel and Jenny Dooly, they are very good to me. He is a winter horse and we have winter ground today. I believe it's summer heavy today and so did Paul Townend and a lot of the senior jockeys, yet the board inside still says soft, yielding in places. The same clerk of the course (Paul Moloney) gave good to yielding in Kilbeggan last night, whereas all the senior jockeys said good, no yielding. There is a huge discrepancies. How are they seeing it as slower than the riders last night and quicker than the riders today. The discrepancy is too big and it doesn't make sense. I'm delighted because my horse is a winter horse and he got heavy ground today. Liz Doyle told me this morning it would be proper soft and she was right. He'll probably get a break now and come back in the winter to go over fences.After Plain Or Battered (IRE) finished 1st at Wexford on Sat, 18th May 2024 3m Hcap Hurdle Soft

Quotes on Garcon Doux (IRE)
he ran terrible the last day he ran in Gowran on heavy ground and today we said if could run a respectable race we'd be happy, but we got more than that. He had a nice run in Punchestown prior to Gowran and he will stay on the go for the summer. He should be alright in those rated hurdles. Niall Moore was due to ride him but was to ride for Gordon Elliott in the Irish National today until his ride Samcro was withdrawn, so missed out.After Garcon Doux (IRE) finished 1st at Cork on Mon, 18th Apr 2022 2m Hcap Hurdle Soft to Heavy

Quotes on C'est Rien (IRE)
she was third and fourth a few times but just got worse and worse over hurdles so I was in trouble with her and didn't know where to go. Danny (Mullins) had said, after riding her a year ago, to run her in one of those chases around the likes of Tramore, so he was right! . We tried everything bar blinkers and that was the next thing, if she didn't do it today. She was very genuine today though and I couldn't believe how well she jumped. She'll go for something similar now. I'd said she'll come back here anyway, that's the plan.

Quotes on Da Big Fella (IRE)
That’s my first winner and I train just down the road in Muckross. We bred the horse ourselves so we are delighted. My wife Valerie had horses before with Tom Cooper and a few others. He’s a horse that was showing ability at home but not on the track. He has really improved this year. We have six riding out at the moment all our own. I have the licence three years and we’ve had a few point-to-point winners. As a foal he was a big fella and that’s how he got the name. He’s crying out for a fence.After Da Big Fella (IRE) finished 1st at Killarney on Thu, 15th Jul 2021 2m 4f Hcap Hurdle Good

Quotes on Fr Gilligansvoyge (GB)
Punchestown races is always a big deal for us. Richard (Farrell, owner) was at school with me, many years ago, and we've been friends ever since. I've had seven horses for himself and his late father over the years but we never had any luck and unfortunately Dick passed away about 18 months ago. It's nice to win in the end. He dead-heated (in Borris House) with the horse (Three By Two) that won the Ladies Cup on Tuesday. You don't like shouting too loud, but we were quietly confident. Richard lives in Bishopscourt House in Kill where the Cup originated from, with the Kennedy family, back in 1880.After Fr Gilligansvoyge (GB) finished 1st at Punchestown on Fri, 28th Apr 2023 2m 5f Chase Yielding

Quotes on Three Loud Knocks (IRE)
I've four point-to-point winners trained but that's my first racecourse winner. I had one winner with Andrew McNamara last year but this is the first of my own and to have Darragh (O'Keeffe) ride him too is a dream come true. I worked for Andrew donkey years ago and I spent my youth with Francis Flood, another marvellous man, and have been in the outside catering business for the last 40 years. I'm since semi-retired and doing this part-time and loving every minute of it. He disappointed in Thurles the last day and I felt he wasn't right on the day and Darragh was absolutely brilliant on him today. You have to be patient on him and while he is genuine, he gets bored and thinks 'ah I'm going home!'. I got the licence in November and this is a dream come true.
