Half A Chance
Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here.

“Half A Chance is a nice horse. He probably wants further and the ground seems yielding, I wouldn't have run him on ground any quicker - Shark Hanlon, trainer”
