11/2
Tried in graded company over hurdles late last year and didn't run badly, placing in seven-runner Doncaster affair. Not beaten far over 1m2f at Fairyhouse this time last year off a mark of 75 so has to enter calculations returning from a layoff now.

Twice a winner over hurdles before finishing 2L fifth of 12 runners in competitive apprentice contest at Cork (1m5f, good to firm) under this rider last month. Is effectively 6lb better off now with the claim so should not be underestimated.

Having first Flat run since April 2014, previously has won off a mark of 62. Three-times a winner over timber last year at up to 3m, will be dropping significantly in distance here having looked in need of the run at Listowel (3m, yielding) earlier this month.

Close second of 17 over 1m1f at Gowran Park this month (soft to heavy) off a 3lb lower mark, emphasising the fact he looks a well-handicapped horse on the Flat right now. Up in distance here and should have a forward role again.

Record of just one win from 22 starts on the Flat, which came on the AW, hardly makes for inspiring reading. Others are readily preferred here and he's been out of sorts in five starts over jumps this year.

Returned from more than a year off with decent showing over 1m4f at Fairyhouse (good) this month. Only beaten 5L in competitive 18-runner affair and not ruled out of this off the same mark if able to come on for the run.

Has clearly had problems given his seven runs have been spread out across more than four years. Well beaten off over this trip at Leopardstown earlier in the month on return to action and first start for new yard. Looks best watched currently.

Didn't achieve much in two maiden runs for Charlie Appleby last season and similar tale in 1m2f maiden at Cork this on first start for this handler. Doesn't make any significant appeal on form going up in trip for first start in handicap company.

She remains a maiden after six starts on the Flat and no sign of progress in three recent spins over hurdles. Plenty to prove back in this sphere.

Hasn't been seen on the track for 428 days and makes first start for a new yard in this, beaten 21L in mile handicap at Naas when last spotted and tackling this trip for the first time.

Nothing to recommend from previous starts in either code and doesn't appear to hold great hopes in this on first start for 239 days being 7lb out of the handicap.

Unplaced in eight previous runs on the Flat but has gone well enough over timber in the past (competitive off 102 last year). Has not run for more than 400 days and is significantly wrong at the weights. Big ask here surely.

Forecasts

Light That (2/1), Prince Charmin' (5/2), Mademoiselle Penny (4/1), Lord Justice (11/2), Why Me (8/1), Turasoir (12/1), All For Nothing (12/1), Irish Bulletin (20/1), Manuka (25/1), Miller And Cook (25/1), Esta Quercus (25/1), Dancing Duke (33/1), Bailarico (33/1)

Verdict

Light That ran well back on the Flat at Gowran Park recently and should still be well handicapped from a 3lb higher mark, though his yard have gone a bit quiet of late. Lord Justice, placed in graded company over timber, is now 5lb lower than when going close at Fairyhouse last summer so he merits serious consideration as well but this may go the way of PRINCE CHARMIN' after a good showing at Cork over this trip recently. With Oisin Orr's claim, he's attractively weighted here and that could make all the difference. Mademoiselle Penny also went well down at the Mallow track last month returning from a break and her jockey booking ensure she too is high on the shortlist for this contest.
  1. Prince Charmin'
  2. Mademoiselle Penny
  3. Lord Justice
