1st (9) (17/2 -31%) Blackpink |
17/2(-31%) | (9) Blackpink 17/2, Foaled March 14. Sioux Nation filly. Dam, 1½m winner, out of 2-y-o 6f (minor US stakes) winner (also third in US 2-y-o Grade 3 6f event) Mycatcandance, herself sister to US 2-y-o Grade 1 8.5f winner Consolidator. One to note. Sioux Nation newcomer bred to appreciate further; respected though in a winnable maiden. |

2nd (11) (15/2 -25%) Centuria |
15/2(-25%) | (11) Centuria 15/2, Twice-raced filly. 50/1 and blinkered for 1st time, ninth of 13 in maiden at this course (8f) 26 days ago. Did some good late work when not beaten far in a 1m maiden here a month ago; blinkers kept. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (28/1 +30%) Late Night Talking |
28/1(+30%) | (3) Late Night Talking 28/1, Once-raced gelding. Twelfth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (5.9f, heavy, 28/1) on debut 22 days ago. Had a couple of these behind when mid-division in a heavy ground Curragh maiden last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (2/1 +43%) Blue Soul |
2/1(+43%) | (10) Blue Soul 2/1, Once-raced filly. Eighth of 13 in maiden (50/1) at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) on debut 69 days ago. Not disgraced when eighth of 13 at Naas in September; likely to be a leading player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (3/1 +0%) Tiger King |
3/1(+0%) | (8) Tiger King 3/1, Twice-raced colt. Tongue strap on for 1st time, fourth of 14 in maiden (11/2) at this C&D 7 days ago. Respected. Threw away a potential winning opportunity here last week; the one to beat if he behaves. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (12/1 -50%) Saffredi |
12/1(-50%) | (5) Saffredi 12/1, Foaled January 30. £42,000 yearling, Twilight Son colt. Dam twice-raced sister to smart winner up to 1¼m Gabr out of smart 7f/1m winner (including at 2 yrs) Spacious, second in 1000 Guineas. Stable does well with its juveniles, including first-time out; watch market moves. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (40/1 -21%) Enchanted Garden |
40/1(-21%) | (12) Enchanted Garden 40/1, Twice-raced filly. Thirteenth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (5.9f, heavy, 14/1) 22 days ago, slowly away. Should progress. Soundly beaten in a couple of turf maidens last month; makes no appeal on her AW debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (6/1 -9%) Go Go Gonzo |
6/1(-9%) | (2) Go Go Gonzo 6/1, Once-raced gelding. 5/1, sixth of 10 in maiden at this course (6f) on debut 21 days ago, running on. Likely to improve. Step up in trip will suit and respected despite being the stable second-string. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (125/1 -89%) Saith Seren |
125/1(-89%) | (14) Saith Seren 125/1, Once-raced filly. Tenth of 14 in maiden (200/1) at this course (5f) on debut 19 days ago, not knocked about. Significantly up in trip. Never a factor in a 5f maiden here a few weeks ago; looks up against it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (150/1 -127%) Selton Hill |
150/1(-127%) | (6) Selton Hill 150/1, Once-raced colt. 80/1, eighteenth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (5.9f, heavy) on debut 22 days ago. Beat just two home in a Curragh maiden last month; best watched on this sounder surface. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (40/1 -60%) Star Sailor |
40/1(-60%) | (7) Star Sailor 40/1, Foaled April 7. Free Eagle gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners by Starspangledbanner, including 2-y-o 5f winner Starspangledwaves. Speedily bred newcomer and best watched this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (8/1 +33%) Exceeding |
8/1(+33%) | (1) Exceeding 8/1, Once-raced gelding. Ninth of 10 in maiden at this course (6f, 14/1) on debut 21 days ago. Slowly away and didn't get the run of the race on debut over 6f here; sure to improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (4) (16/1 -88%) My Mate Tony |
16/1(-88%) | (4) My Mate Tony 16/1, Foaled January 29. 50,000 gns yearling, Sea The Moon colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 1m winner Rashke and 2-y-o 6f winner Next Life. Dam 9.5f-1½m winner. One to note. Newcomer related to plenty of winners over various trips; likely to improve for this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (13) (150/1 -127%) Katie Kabeir |
150/1(-127%) | (13) Katie Kabeir 150/1, Twice-raced filly. Last of 12 in maiden at Galway (7f, good, 125/1). Off 110 days. First run for yard after leaving Denis Hogan. Plum last in two summer maidens for Denis Hogan; makes no appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TIGER KING certainly didn't help his cause by veering right about a furlong out over C&D last Wednesday and, if avoiding a repeat of those antics, should go close. The Richard O'Brien-trained colt was still beaten less than two lengths behind newcomer Cash Collector and Billy Lee will be on alert for any wayward tendencies. Riding arrangements suggest Blue Soul is preferred of Ger Lyons' pair, while Centuria showed some promise despite meeting trouble in running early on last time. Newcomers to note include Blackpink, by Sioux Nation from the family of some smart juveniles in the States, and Saffredi who is by Twilight Son and out of a sister to a 1m2f Listed winner.
GO GO GONZO offered something to work on here 3 weeks ago and can find the required improvement to beat Tiger King and Centuria.
If TIGER KING can overcome the quirks he showed when chucking away a maiden here last week he clearly looks the one to beat

1st (11) (10/1 +29%) River Derwent |
10/1(+29%) | (11) River Derwent 10/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (8f) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Encouraging effort in a 1m handicap here earlier this month; not dismissed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (4/1 +11%) James Henry |
4/1(+11%) | (3) James Henry 4/1, 12/1, creditable second of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Not taken lightly. Up 2lb for his latest effort and has the worst of the draw, but capable of contending. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/2 +0%) Golden Days |
9/2(+0%) | (5) Golden Days 9/2, Latest win at Gowran in July. Respectable third of 14 in handicap (17/2) at this C&D 21 days ago, running on. Has good chance on pick of form. Ran well here earlier in the month and the stable could not be in better form; contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (33/1 -136%) Might And Mercy |
33/1(-136%) | (4) Might And Mercy 33/1, C&D winner. Eleventh of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 22/1) 12 days ago. Blinkers back on. Winner for Noel Meade earlier in the year but nothing to recommend of late; no appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (11/2 +8%) Irish Rumour |
11/2(+8%) | (1) Irish Rumour 11/2, Creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D (22/1) 21 days ago. Respected. Probably suited by 1m but going the right way and should play a hand here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (20/1 -100%) The Cola Brasil |
20/1(-100%) | (2) The Cola Brasil 20/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 10/3) 86 days ago. Rejoined yard after leaving Henry Spiller. Still 5lb above his last winning mark but British form good enough to give him a chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (12/1 +40%) Ha Long Bay |
12/1(+40%) | (6) Ha Long Bay 12/1, Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap (66/1) at this C&D 7 days ago. Every chance if back to best. Ran respectably in a C&D handicap last week; well drawn and down another 3lb here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (11/1 +21%) Sunset Nova |
11/1(+21%) | (12) Sunset Nova 11/1, 5-time course winner. 16/1, fourth of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, nearest finish. Enters calculations. Good run here last time over C&D and each-way chance if he can repeat it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (20/1 -43%) Haalim |
20/1(-43%) | (7) Haalim 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in maiden at this course (6f, 100/1) 33 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Makes handicap debut. Up in trip here and the champion jockey booked; interesting on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (10/1 -33%) Tynamite |
10/1(-33%) | (13) Tynamite 10/1, 5-time course winner. Twenty three runs since last win in 2021. 14/1, bit below form fourth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago. Two wins here and another solid effort last time after racing keenly; will be played late. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (66/1 -65%) Qalahari Queen |
66/1(-65%) | (9) Qalahari Queen 66/1, Seventh of 10 in claimer (100/1) at this course (6f) 14 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Others more persuasive. Coming down the handicap but has shown little ability, including in a claimer last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (12/1 -71%) Pimstrel |
12/1(-71%) | (8) Pimstrel 12/1, 5/1, bit below form seventh of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, heavy) 23 days ago, slowly away. Front-runner and good performer on soft at his best; well drawn and could play a hand. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (125/1 -279%) Praying Mantis |
125/1(-279%) | (10) Praying Mantis 125/1, 28/1, last of 11 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, soft) 58 days ago. Shadow of her former self this year despite a plummeting mark; makes little appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (14) (11/2 +21%) Saoirses Lulaby |
11/2(+21%) | (14) Saoirses Lulaby 11/2, Good third of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 20/1) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Respected. Drop back to this trip should suit; new headgear tried here and has a leading chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
GOLDEN DAYS is from a yard in great form with five winners at the two meetings here last week. The selection has gained all three career wins over this trip and had both Tynamite and Sunset Nova behind when third to Storm Eric over C&D earlier this month. James Henry only went down by a head to the progressive El Bello here a fortnight ago and merits respect off just a 2lb higher mark, while Irish Rumour was placed behind the same grey gelding the previous week. Saoirses Lulaby only weakened in the closing stages when putting in two very solid efforts here over a mile and is interesting dropped back in trip and fitted with cheekpieces, while River Derwent is another to consider.
GOLDEN DAYS took a step back in the right direction when third over C&D 3 weeks ago and tops the shortlist off 1 lb lower. Sunset Nova and James Henry head the dangers.
Preference is for SAOIRSES LULABY after two good runs over 1m with the drop back to 7f likely to suit

1st (2) (5/2 +25%) Gobi Star |
5/2(+25%) | (2) Gobi Star 5/2, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 8/1, respectable third of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Expected to be bang there. In good form of late; fair draw and should go close if able to run to the same level here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/1 -8%) Bucky Larson |
7/1(-8%) | (3) Bucky Larson 7/1, Course winner. 6/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 12 days ago. Should be on the premises. Coming down the handicap and has run encouragingly of late; each-way chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (15/2 +32%) Circles |
15/2(+32%) | (7) Circles 15/2, C&D winner. 11/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Enters calculations. Respectable efforts last twice over C&D and could well get into the shake-up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (18/1 -13%) Cherry Bloom |
18/1(-13%) | (11) Cherry Bloom 18/1, Latest win at Fairyhouse in June. Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 21 days ago. Worth considering. Not beaten far over C&D earlier this month; more needed but could well contend. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (9/2 -50%) Knockmore Prince |
9/2(-50%) | (9) Knockmore Prince 9/2, Creditable third of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 9/2) 12 days ago, never nearer. Makes most appeal for all that he needs a solid pace. Not the most straightforward but has the ability to get involved from a good draw. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (16/1 -256%) Amemri |
16/1(-256%) | (6) Amemri 16/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Twelfth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (15/2) 14 days ago. May well bounce back quickly. Rare poor effort here two weeks ago but definite claims if back to her previous form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (18/1 +45%) Bellick |
18/1(+45%) | (8) Bellick 18/1, 4-time course winner. Tenth of 14 in handicap (50/1) at this course (8f) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Badly drawn here but this is probably his best trip and was not beaten that far last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (4/1 +33%) Chica Power |
4/1(+33%) | (4) Chica Power 4/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Below form fourth of 13 in claimer at this course (8f, 12/1) 7 days ago. Not dismissed. Champion jockey booked and respected in possibly the more winnable of the two divisions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (22/1 -57%) Markievicz |
22/1(-57%) | (12) Markievicz 22/1, Fourteenth of 20 in handicap (8/1) at Navan (5.8f, soft) 49 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Others make more appeal. Back down to her last winning mark here and has the ability but far from consistent. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (15) (14/1 +58%) Woodrow |
14/1(+58%) | (15) Woodrow 14/1, C&D winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eleventh of 13 in handicap at this course (8f, 50/1). Off 133 days. Blinkered for 1st time. Chance if rediscovering old form. RESERVE. First reserve; well beaten in two recent starts; new headgear combination tried here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (66/1 -65%) Play It Again Zaam |
66/1(-65%) | (5) Play It Again Zaam 66/1, 40/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John Andrew Kinsella. Winless in 12 starts and little to recommend of late; first run for his new trainer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (14) (66/1 -65%) Ceres Ring |
66/1(-65%) | (14) Ceres Ring 66/1, 150/1, eleventh of 15 in maiden at Navan (5f, heavy) 35 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Plenty to find on form. Modest maiden and handicap form; makes little appeal here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (13) (18/1 +45%) Try Hard |
18/1(+45%) | (13) Try Hard 18/1, 22/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago. Shouldn't be completely dismissed. Faded late but showed something in a C&D handicap last week; more needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (10) (50/1 +0%) Almost An Angel |
50/1(+0%) | (10) Almost An Angel 50/1, Unreliable type. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 80/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. Down now to a basement mark but little sign of late that he can play a hand here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CHICA POWER gained her third C&D win last month and should be well suited by the return to this trip after finding a mile too far when the pace was too hot in a claimer last week. The booking of Colin Keane is interesting. The champion jockey has been a regular partner on Knockmore Prince who went close on a number of occasions here earlier this year and came from well off the pace when third over a mile last time with Bucky Larson a length further back in fifth. Gobi Star is another to consider after going close on his return to the Polytrack a fortnight ago, while C&D winner Amemri needs to bounce back after a disappointing run last time.
KNOCKMORE PRINCE shaped well from a long way back after attracting support here last time and, from an appealing mark, he's fancied to get his head in front if the race is run to suit. Gobi Star looks the main danger and Bucky Larson isn't without hope.
The one to beat is the consistent GOBI STAR(nap), narrowly beaten over C&D last time and a reproduction could be good enough

1st (6) (22/1 -83%) Rhasidat |
22/1(-83%) | (6) Rhasidat 22/1, 66/1, possibly needed the run after 3 months off when sixth of 11 on nursery debut at this course (6f) 2 weeks ago, unable to sustain effort. Not competitive in sprint maidens, not disgraced in a better race than this two weeks ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (5/2 -81%) Dream Ticket |
5/2(-81%) | (1) Dream Ticket 5/2, Visored for 1st time, much improved when second of 13 on nursery debut at this course (8f, 14/1) 5 days ago. Every chance she can go one better. Sets the standard following last Friday's second placing over 1m on her handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (7/2 +71%) Amerigo Vespucci |
7/2(+71%) | (8) Amerigo Vespucci 7/2, 14/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 11 in nursery at Galway (7f, heavy) 23 days ago, missing break. Makes all-weather debut. Ordinary maiden form, soundly beaten in two turf nurseries, first AW experience here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (9/1 -64%) Relentless Flyer |
9/1(-64%) | (2) Relentless Flyer 9/1, Ran to only a modest level when seventh of 12 in maiden (80/1) at this C&D just under 6 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut and in top hands, she could well take a big step forward. Took a small step in the right direction here last time, perhaps unwise to rule out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/2 +54%) Irish Annie |
11/2(+54%) | (3) Irish Annie 11/2, 40/1, fifteenth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (5.9f, heavy) 22 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Does not seem well treated relative to Private Officer on the basis of 6f Curragh clash. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (4/1 +11%) Private Officer |
4/1(+11%) | (4) Private Officer 4/1, Showed ability having been poorly placed when seventh of 20 in maiden (125/1) at the Curragh (5.9f, heavy) 22 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Some merit in his run in a 6f maiden at the Curragh last month, may find his level now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (10/1 -54%) Highland Bells |
10/1(-54%) | (5) Highland Bells 10/1, 9/1, again ran poorly when eleventh of 13 in nursery at this course (8f) 5 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Towards the rear in the race in which Dream Ticket was second last Friday, up against it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (16/1 -60%) Maria Land |
16/1(-60%) | (9) Maria Land 16/1, 10/1, tenth of 11 in nursery at Galway (7f, heavy) 23 days ago. Makes all-weather debut. Tongue strap on 1st time. Merits consideration. First of her two nursery outings was respectable, hard to fancy after moderate Galway run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (40/1 -60%) Sofia Tesoro |
40/1(-60%) | (7) Sofia Tesoro 40/1, Tenth of 14 in maiden (200/1) at this C&D 7 days ago. Looks limited on early evidence so step forward needed on handicap debut. No obvious sign of winning potential in three maiden outings including over C&D last week. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Top-weight in a nursery is often quoted as a winning formula and it may prove fruitful here as DREAM TICKET holds strong claims judged on her handicap debut last Friday. The Willie McCreery-trained filly, who will be raised 3lb in future handicaps, had Highland Bells well behind when beating all bar Bergamasco over a mile and shouldn't be inconvenienced by the step back in trip having travelled smoothly to challenge over a furlong out. Private Officer has only raced with plenty of cut in the ground and was far from disgraced behind the impressive Samuel Colt in a 20-runner maiden at the Curragh last time, while at the other end of the weights, Amerigo Vespucci and Maria Land have shown glimpses of form.
DREAM TICKET showed much improved form on her all-weather/nursery debut when finishing runner-up here on Friday so, provided this outing doesn't come too soon, Willie McCreery's filly can go a place better. A better showing is anticipated from Maria Land having her first start on the all-weather so she's put forward as the main threat fitted with a tongue tie, with Relentless Flyer rounding off the shortlist.
Only DREAM TICKET has reached the first three and she stands out in this company after last Friday's second over 1m at this venue

1st (3) (9/2 -29%) Never Cry Never |
9/2(-29%) | (3) Never Cry Never 9/2, Thrice-raced colt. 14/1, fifth of 10 in maiden at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Closely matched with First Gentleman on Navan running, cheekpieces may help his cause. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/5 +27%) Cross Border |
4/5(+27%) | (1) Cross Border 4/5, Lightly-raced gelding. Very good second of 12 in C&D maiden 33 days ago. Expected to be bang there under Billy Lee. Placed on his last three starts, beaten a neck over C&D last time, should go close again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (11/2 -10%) Reinforce |
11/2(-10%) | (4) Reinforce 11/2, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 11 Flat runs. First run since leaving John S. O'Donoghue when below form fourth of 9 in maiden (12/1) at this course (5f) 12 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Seems well exposed at this stage but could feature if retrieving last season's best form. |

4th (6) (5/1 +58%) Pro Bono Alexander |
5/1(+58%) | (6) Pro Bono Alexander 5/1, Eleventh of 13 in maiden (14/1) at Naas (7f, good) on debut for Jessica Harrington in August 2022. Not seen since. Could only consider if the betting vibes are strong. Made little impression in a 7f maiden on her only start for Jessica Harrington at two. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (11/1 -175%) First Gentleman |
11/1(-175%) | (2) First Gentleman 11/1, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. 9/2, below form sixth of 15 in maiden at Navan (5f, heavy) 35 days ago, never nearer. Makes polytrack debut. Won't be far away if back to his best. Placed on his first five starts, now looking regressive but could feature in this company. |

6th (7) (200/1 -33%) Santabella |
200/1(-33%) | (7) Santabella 200/1, Remains a maiden after 9 Flat runs. Eighth of 9 in maiden (200/1) at this course (5f) 12 days ago, very slowly away. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Placed three times in Britain as a juvenile, has struggled in three Irish starts. |

7th (5) (125/1 -25%) Dream Token |
125/1(-25%) | (5) Dream Token 125/1, Once-raced filly. Last of 13 in maiden at this course (8f, 100/1) on debut. Off 8 months. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Garry Bernard Caldwell. Never involved in a 1m maiden here on March on her only start for her previous trainer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
This looks quite a tightly knit maiden and perhaps CROSS BORDER can open his account. The Expert Eye gelding didn't make his debut until this summer and has shown promise on a number of occasions including when going close at Down Royal and only went down by a neck to Bold Optimist over C&D last time. First Gentleman was placed on his first five starts this year and it will be interesting to see how he copes with this surface, while Never Cry Never probably found seven too far here last time and is now fitted with cheek pieces. Reinforce was having his first run for Danny Murphy when keeping on behind better-fancied stablemate Maggie McGrath on his first start in over four months.
Billy Lee takes over in the saddle on CROSS BORDER for the first time and Edward Lynam's charge can gain compensation for his near miss here last month. If First Gentleman is back to anywhere near his best he's the main threat ahead of Never Cry Never.
The vote goes to NEVER CRY NEVER who is a little less exposed than three other runners with a similar official rating

2nd (10) (12/1 +40%) Roman Palace |
12/1(+40%) | (10) Roman Palace 12/1, Good fourth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Close fourth over C&D two weeks ago; up 1lb for that but could be a factor with a repeat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (9/2 -29%) Skontonovski |
9/2(-29%) | (1) Skontonovski 9/2, 4-time C&D winner. Won 14-runner handicap (85/40) at this course (7f) 14 days ago by neck from reopposing Notforalongtime. Should give another good account. Up 5lb for a narrow success over 7f here last time; at least as well suited by 1m; player. |

4th (3) (4/1 -45%) Storm Eric |
4/1(-45%) | (3) Storm Eric 4/1, Course winner. Latest win here in November. Creditable 2 lengths fourth of 14 to Skontonovski in handicap at this course (7f, 7/4) 14 days ago, never nearer. Should go well. Consistent and likely to be thereabouts once more if he's effective over 1m. |

5th (12) (17/2 +47%) Tara Power |
17/2(+47%) | (12) Tara Power 17/2, C&D winner. One win from 28 Flat runs. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. Respectable 2¾ lengths fourth of 14 to Airgead in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 12 days ago. A shade unlucky when fourth to Airgead over C&D last time; each-way chance. |

6th (2) (5/1 +0%) Notforalongtime |
5/1(+0%) | (2) Notforalongtime 5/1, C&D winner. 14/1, good neck second of 14 to Skontonovski in handicap at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Can make presence felt again. Touched off late by Skontonovski here last time; will contend with a repeat display. |

7th (7) (10/1 +60%) Humanitarian |
10/1(+60%) | (7) Humanitarian 10/1, Quirky sort. Twenty one runs since last win in 2020. Sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f, 33/1) 12 days ago. Back down in trip. Not a bad run in a 1m2f handicap here two weeks ago but could be up against it. |

8th (8) (16/1 -146%) Happaugue |
16/1(-146%) | (8) Happaugue 16/1, Course winner. 17/2, twelfth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (17.2f, good) 84 days ago. Alsoi below par on last Flat run but was runner-up off this mark here earlier in the year and the booking of Colin Keane could prove significant. Dual course winner but on long losing run and best form over further. |

9th (4) (66/1 -313%) Chimeric |
66/1(-313%) | (4) Chimeric 66/1, 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Latest win at Killarney in July. 17/2, fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good) 90 days ago. Something to find on form. Handicapper might well have his measure at this stage and others preferred here. |

50/1(-25%) | (11) Our Dickie 50/1, Last of 14 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 12 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Well beaten in three runs for his current stable, including over C&D last time. |

11th (6) (20/1 -67%) Mads Black Eights |
20/1(-67%) | (6) Mads Black Eights 20/1, Course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, respectable sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 14 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Not beaten far over 1m2f here latest and not dismissed, but this shorter trip is an issue. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (11/2 +27%) Airgead |
11/2(+27%) | (9) Airgead 11/2, 16/1, improved on recent efforts to win 14-runner handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, driven clear. Should remain competitive after a 5 lb rise. Won over this trip here two weeks ago; up 5lb for that but bang in form and should go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Skontonovski, NOTFORALONGTIME and Storm Eric renew rivalry after meeting over seven furlongs here a fortnight ago and the Laura Hourigan-trained gelding gets the vote to land this corresponding race for the second successive year. The selection won twice over C&D around this time last year and enjoyed the return to this surface last time. Skontonovski was recording his sixth career win last time and is an obvious threat, while Storm Eric won here in the spring and also appreciated a return to the Polytrack winning earlier this month before not getting the clearest of runs last time. Morning Approach found the extended 10 furlongs too far last week, while Roman Palace and Airgead are others to consider.
A chance is taken on John McConnell's HAPPAUGUE with the booking of Colin Keane catching the eye. Notforalongtime, Skontonovski and Storm Eric are closely matched on recent course form and head the dangers.
Preference is for AIRGEAD, a revelation in blinkers last twice and might not be stopped by a 5lb penalty

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
KAMPALA BEACH won over C&D 12 months ago and added to his tally over nine furlongs at Leopardstown this summer. The Belardo gelding hails from a yard in cracking form at present and further advertised his claims when third to The Mpex Kid here last month. Patrick Street won here early last year and returned to form when taking a 20-runner handicap over a similar trip at Navan last month. Comfort Line won three times for Mick Mulvany including at Navan last year and has tumbled down the ratings after a generally disappointing campaign this season. Kartayaz has won three times over C&D and gave encouragement when again making the running here a fortnight ago, taking third behind Bright N Shine.
Though stall 14 isn't ideal, KAMPALA BEACH is otherwise very appealing in a handicap devoid of many strong candidates, particularly judged on recent exploits. He returned to form when third off this mark over C&D last month and a reproduction of that effort would probably suffice. Fashion Flair is worth considering with Colin Keane up for this all-weather debut, while Kartayaz and Well Suited both make some each-way appeal.
The Collins/Halford team is in good form and \KAMPALA BEACH\p makes plenty of appeal following his C&D third last month

8/1(-78%) | (2) Oakley 8/1, 9/2, seventeenth of 21 in handicap at Navan (14f, heavy) 35 days ago. Down in trip. Others more persuasive. Won in Germany, went close on Irish debut, soft ground may have been his undoing at Navan. |

9/4(+44%) | (5) Old Peculier 9/4, 3/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, nearest finish. Enters calculations. Unlucky not to finish closer when fifth here last week, well fancied then, definite chance. |

4/1(+0%) | (1) Wajaaha 4/1, Course winner. 4/1, creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Best known as a three-time hurdles winner but has been showing decent form at this venue. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
DINAMINE has yet to score after 27 starts for a number of trainers but may finally gain a deserved winning bracket. The selection went close a few times last year including when beaten just a nose at Down Royal and was fitted with a hood for the first time when fourth to Neverfindanother U on his return to this venue last month. Old Peculier was well backed when only beaten just over a length here last Wednesday, while others to consider include Lucky Question, who is trying this surface for the first time, and the dual-purpose Wajaaha. The top-weight has put together three solid efforts here in recent weeks and still just remains in this grade.
WAJAAHA has been knocking on the door of late and he is taken to deservedly get his head back in front. He may have most to fear from Not Just Any Eagle, who wasn't disgraced on his all-weather debut over C&D last month. Old Peculier is third choice ahead of Lucky Question, while Oakley could also have a part to play, provided he takes to this surface and is able to put a below-par effort at Navan last time behind him.
There was plenty of market confidence behind OLD PECULIER here last week. He looked unlucky not to get into the money and may atone now

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
