14/1
Placed three times from 12 outings so far. Failed to complete the last twice however and looks to be a risky proposition at present.

2/1
Finished in the frame in five of his eight starts over fences. Beaten 11L into third at Fairyhouse over 2m4f (good-to-yielding) last time out and likely to play a leading role with cheekpieces fitted for the first time today.

Age: 9|  Weight: 11-12| J: B T O'Connell| T: W J Lanigan
50/1
Winner of a point-to-point at Stradbally (good-to-firm) last month. Failed to complete in two of three starts prior to that and probably best watched in a tongue tie on rules debut.

Age: 8|  Weight: 11-12| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: C Bowe
3/1
Victorious twice over hurdles including here over 2m4f on yielding-to-soft ground 13 months ago. Beaten 16L into third when odds-on favourite for his chase debut at Limerick in March and an interesting runner here.

12/1
Placed just once in seven outings over fences. Beaten 29L into third on that occasion and well beaten in a hood at Fairyhouse last time out. Likely to find a couple too good here.

Age: 9|  Weight: 11-12| J: D F O'Regan| T: S J Mahon
10/1
Finished runner-up when sent off a big price for chase debut over an extended 2m3f at Limerick (soft) last month. Step up in trip today not certain to suit but remains unexposed.

Red Giantb12
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Flanagan| T: N Meade| OR:  114
6/1
Dual winner over hurdles but disappointed in five starts over fences so far. Pulled up over 3m6f in a handicap chase at Punchestown (good-to-yielding) last month and drops in trip today.
8
Horse silk
Top Of The Town201
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-12| J: D N Russell| T: C Byrnes
7/2
Winner at Roscommon and Bellewstown over an extended 2m7f and 3m respectively in August last year. Beaten less than 2L into fourth over 3m at Cheltenham (good) when last seen out in October and an interesting runner on chase debut.

Forecasts

Crest (2/1), Go It Alone (3/1), Top Of The Town (7/2), Red Giant (6/1), Mannin Island (10/1), Joxer (12/1), Baily Moon (14/1), First Crusade (50/1)

Verdict

CREST has disappointed so far over fences having finished a beaten favourite in four of his eight starts but he can get off the mark in this 2m7f event here. The selection finished third at Fairyhouse last month and has run well on good ground in the past. Top Of The Town was in good form over hurdles last year and is taken to finish second here while Mannin Island who is upped in trip today and Go It Alone who was a beaten odds-on favourite for his chase debut are others to note here.
  1. Crest
  2. Top Of The Town
  3. Mannin Island
