|
93
|
25/1 |
Heavenly Power
Two wins here, including a defeat of 29 rivals in a C&D handicap two seasons ago; won at Navan last October off 5lb lower; probably needs his best form yet to defy current mark and heavy ground perhaps not ideal.

- Never Shout Never
- C J Macredmond / A Mcguinness

28/1 |
Never Shout Never
5f winner at Cork on soft and excellent second in premier handicap over C&D last year when trained by Fozzy Stack; very weak in market on second start for this yard when beaten around 5l at Cork last time.

Tough Talk
One of the darker ones after only five starts and he won his 2yo maiden here before finishing second in the Group 3 Marble Hill; restricted to only three starts as a 3yo and showed the benefit of a gelding operation when only 2l away in 7.5f handicap at Leopardstown; dropped 4lb.

Dagoda
Gained back-to-back course wins (6f/7f) last season and was third of 19 after missing the break in a C&D handicap in October; has the form to feature if returning in similar nick.

- Rough Diamond
- B M Coen / E Lynam

Rough Diamond
Four-time winner handles soft and has won here; missed most of last season and not in great form on AW over the winter although latest run (when beaten 2l) was better; tongue-tie.

- L T Mcateer / Barry J Fitzgerald

Brave Troop
Quite a talented horse as he showed when bolting up over 7f at Gowran this time last year having won over 1m2f on heavy the time before; beaten fractions off this mark over 7f at Listowel in September; not seen since falling over hurdles later that month.

Gustavus Weston
Four-time winner at up to Group 2 level; has been steadily coming down the handicap and was second over 5f here in the autumn but no encouragement from his two starts this term.

- Polar Bear
- K G Kennedy / Mrs J Harrington

10/1 |
Polar Bear
5f winner on heavy at Bellewstown last April and touched off at same venue in August; has won over 6f and should have come on for fair return at Cork; rider knows him and is good value for his claim.

- Coumshingaun
- J A Heffernan / Kevin Coleman

|
16/1 |
Coumshingaun
Dual C&D winner should be better for seasonal debut over 7f at Cork and she's back on a good mark; has run well on testing ground but would prefer a sounder surface.
|
|

- Ramiro
- J M Sheridan / Miss H Mcloughlin
|

93
|
7/1 |
Ramiro
Has done well for a few different yards and is a real mudlark; two wins when trained in Britain last term and good second over 7f at Naas last month; didn't see out his race when favourite at Cork six days later; stiff 6f here should be fine.
|
|
|
- Merisi Diamond
- R P Whelan / M Brassil
|
|
93
|
2/1 |
Merisi Diamond
Two readily-achieved wins on heavy ground at this venue (6f/7f) for which he's risen sharply in the ratings; second over 7f at Leopardstown last time and hood tried then is left off here; likely there's still more to come.
|
|

- Rathbranchurch
- W Joyce / M Mulvany

25/1 |
Rathbranchurch
Just the one win last term but was a consistent handicapper throughout the season and ran well first time out; ground no issue.
|
|

- Saturn Seven
- D P Mcdonogh / E Lynam
|
|
95
|
33/1 |
Saturn Seven
Two wins for Ken Condon last season, over 7f at Limerick and over 5f here on testing ground when last seen in October; visor worn then left off; stable debut after being bought for 17,000gns.

- Run Forrest Run
- S Foley / M P Fenton
|
|
94
|
16/1 |
Run Forrest Run
Hold-up sprinter won twice over 6f last term, here and at Cork, albeit in lower grade contests; should be better for his comeback at latter venue; always needs luck in running but ground not a problem.
|
|
|
- Run The Jewels
- O Mcsweeney / Daniel Mcloughlin
|
|
91
|
22/1 |
Run The Jewels
Four wins at a lower level over 7f/1m and handles soft; first try over 6f at Dundalk recently was quite encouraging but he's probably better around a bend.
|
|
|
- Secret Magician
- M W Hassett / M Hassett
|
|
98
|
5/1 |
Secret Magician
Both wins have come over C&D and he handles heavy; shaped well at Cork three weeks ago and yard does very well with limited runners; on a fair mark and should be bang there.
|
|
|
- Distillate
- C D Hayes / A Mcguinness
|
|
94
|
80/1 |
Distillate
Won three times last season when kept very busy; handles heavy but off since January and opposable in this grade.
|

|
- Mercurial
- R Whearty / J Nallen

|
95
|
10/1 |
Mercurial
Yet to add to juvenile success when trained in Britain but runner-up three times last term including over C&D on similar ground in October when finishing in front of Dagoda and Secret Magician; probably needed the run when long way behind Merisi Diamond here last month.
|

|
- Hokusai
- J A Powell / N Meade

|
18/1 |
Hokusai
Runner-up in heavy ground maidens (7f/1m) last term; went without blinkers when running creditably over 1m here on reappearance; yet to shine over this trip but could go well under last season's champion apprentice with headgear back on.
|
|
|
- Midnight Fire
- L F Roche / E & P Harty
|
|
97
|
20/1 |
Midnight Fire
Three of his four wins have come over C&D including first time out last term on heavy; form petered out as the season went on; might find winning in this grade difficult but each-way claims.
|

- Super Over
- D Egan / D P Coakley
|
|
94
|
18/1 |
Super Over
Four wins on AW (7f/1m); yet to win on turf and faded over 1m on heavy ground at Leopardstown; good jockey booked but others preferred.

- K J Leonard / D Hogan

Tai Sing Yeh
Veteran has been a great servant and has won on soft; only beaten 2l in AW handicap latest but this company looks bit too hot for him.

Livingston Range
Hit a good spell of form over this trip last summer when winning at Naas and second to Secret Magician here; soundly beaten in three starts since switching yards last month and hard to fancy.
