7/2
Respectable showing on handicap debut last time out and still open to improvement over 10f. Stiff test on these terms, however, and needs to put in a personal best effort.

Modest improvement in a weak maiden last time out but at least going the right way. Will qualify for a handicap mark after this so may do better in that sphere. Worth noting in the betting but still needs to improve for the extra half furlong he tackles tonight.

Not much to take from his debut run at Navan and makes very limited appeal on that evidence.

Exposed maiden that is running out of chances. Two previous starts in heavy ground yielded little and probably safest to let him do his own thing this time around.

Ran better than expectations at Navan earlier this month and has claims if building on that effort. Pedigree not exactly screaming out for improvement on the predicted going, so the betting will guide here.

Three starts in maiden company have been poor to say the least. Little worthwhile form to recommend and safe to leave well alone.

Edges out Mauricio as the best in at the weights and posted easily the best piece of form in a similar race last time out. Likely to be hard to beat if capable of dishing out a repeat dose. Pats Smullen being back in the plate a big bonus.

Age: 3|  Weight: 8-6| J: N G McCullagh| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR:  53
10/1
Interesting that her yard is persevering with her at this level but the form of her two starts in handicaps leaves her with a big shout in this company. Dangerous to underestimate despite her winless profile.

Forecasts

Cul An Ti (2/1), Mauricio (10/3), Circling Moon (7/2), Future Frontier (6/1), Blue Book (10/1), Machine Head (16/1), A Place Apart (33/1), Fontainbleau (50/1)

Verdict

BLUE BOOK is a rare runner for her yard at this level and the hint is taken as she drops into claiming company after a couple reasonable efforts (in the context of this race, at least). Cul An Ti will make this a tough test and has to be respected as the 'best in' at the weights, while Mauricio also has sound claims of gaining a confidence booster before returning to modest handicap company.
