9/1
Decent breeding and got off the mark in useful style at the third time of asking in a point just before Christmas, should be ready to go here.

Lindas Pelder19
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-9| J: Mr A M King(7)| T: J Neilan
66/1
Ran in Limerick bumper on December 26, sent off 25/1 and finished seventh of eight, beaten a long way.
3

Marienstar19
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-9| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: G J O'Keeffe
12/1
Boasts some useful racecourse experience and ran well enough to be fourth in same Limerick bumper as Lindas Pelder off a break.

Our Valentina35
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-9| J: Mr N McParlan(3)| T: S R B Crawford
11/1
Trainer is well enough respected in this sphere but she hasn't shown bags of promise in two bumpers runs.

Amybell59
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: S Wilson
33/1
Fair breeding but one to watch on debut here for a yard not synonymous with bumper horses.

Bat Sheva19
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr A H Wells(7)| T: Alan Wells
50/1
Folded quickly enough having led on debut at Down Royal on December 26, others more likely here.

Fintara63
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Miss K Harrington(5)| T: Mrs J Harrington
3/1
By no means disgraced in Galway and Naas bumper efforts this term, could get competitive here.
8
Horse silk
La Belle Bete
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: R Deegan(7)| T: P G Fahey
25/1
Trainer has had winners in this sphere before but just one attempt from the yard in recent times, failed.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr D J Benson(5)| T: N Meade
7/4
Good second to odds-on favourite in bumper here a fortnight ago, maximum respect here for leading trainer based on that effort.
10
Horse silk
Martello Park28
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: Ms M Mullins
9/2
Promising start for powerful connections at Naas in November but soundly beaten at Fairyhouse following month and perhaps not one of the yard's leading lights.
11
Horse silk
Miss Butterfly141
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr J J Codd| T: P J Colville
25/1
Good effort on debut at Worcester in August, failed to match that later the same month at Down Royal. Off the track since but has leading man in the saddle for this.
12
Horse silk
Scotch Begt128
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr S Clements(3)| T: A Oliver
20/1
Has plenty to find with Martello Park on Fairyhouse meeting, tongue strap goes on here.

Forecasts

Ladysingstheblues (7/4), Fintara (3/1), Martello Park (9/2), Gracemount (9/1), Our Valentina (11/1), Marienstar (12/1), Scotch Beg (20/1), Miss Butterfly (25/1), La Belle Bete (25/1), Amybell (33/1), Bat Sheva (50/1), Lindas Pelder (66/1)

Verdict

Martello Park represents much-feared connections in this sphere and is respected but she took a backwards step from her debut next time at Fairyhouse and is opposed on that basis. LADYSINGSTHEBLUES followed home that rival's stablemate here on New Year's Eve and can go up a step now by winning this. Miss Butterfly would have decent claims if reproducing her Worcester effort now coming here off a break while recent point winner Gracemount is also worthy of a mention now going under rules for the first time. 1. Ladysingstheblues 2. Gracemount 3. Martello Park
