Lightly-raced sort was runner-up behind easy winner in 1m Listowel maiden last time out, could be open to making some progress now switched to handicaps.

Is now 19 runs without a win and seemingly not the force of old but ran a fine race over 1m2f at Leopardstown 14 days ago when beaten only a neck. In here off the same mark and can have a say once more.

Third over this sort of trip at Ballinrobe on Tuesday evening, affording the winner a gilt-edged chance when rounding final bend quite wide. Had previously been in very consistent form and respected again here.

Shaped with some promise in three maidens in Britain last summer, since made switch to the Harrington team. Worth a look on return from layoff though yard have been quite recently.

Losing streak goes back to November 2014 but posted solid effort 1m at the Curragh (good) last month and cannot be ruled out from a 3lb higher mark with Smullen booked.

Won his maiden here over 7½f in May last year, scored again at Limerick on final start of the year but has been way below best in both runs since coming back from a break. Others preferred at the moment.

Won a claimer at Gowran Park last month, before being well beaten back there in handicap company start of this month. Since been beaten just 2L off this mark at Limerick (1m, good to firm) six days ago. Gives reason for optimism.

Went close in Killarney maiden (1m, yielding) last month then held (6½L) on handicap debut at Fairyhouse (7f, good). Gets 4lb back for this, could have a say.

Winner of 1m Leopardstown handicap last time out, ending 14-race winless streak. 8lb hike isn't guaranteed to stop him if in same mood now.

Won apprentice race at Gowran Park (1m, soft to heavy) on penultimate start off a mark of 48, since weld held off this revised rating when dropped to 7f at Roscommon this month. Needs to find a bit more seemingly.

13-race maiden whose best efforts have come on faster ground than what he's likely to get here. Certainly won't want any easing of the ground.

Well beaten in three maidens last year, returns from 216 days off sporting first-time blinkers for handicap debut and needs to have improved.

Well held in three starts this year, probably in need of some more relief from the handicapper before going in again, still 6lb above previous winning mark.

Forecasts

Try Again (9/2), So Sensible (11/2), Military Hill (7/1), Settle For Red (8/1), Allegio (8/1), Youceeyouceecee (8/1), Rummaging (10/1), Storm Ranger (12/1), Pari Passu (12/1), Punches Pious (14/1), Donnerhall (16/1), Double Fast (33/1), Buddha's Secret (50/1)

Verdict

Try Again had been in terrific form prior to finishing third at Ballinrobe on Tuesday and he shouldn't be written off too quickly if backing up in this. Settle For Red took the honours at Leopardstown last time out and is capable of having a say now despite a hike in the ratings for that win. Rummaging also put some poor performances behind when last out and has to be respected but this might go the way of Military Hill, who landed a claimer at Gowran Park last month and will have reason for optimism coming into this having run well at Limerick six day ago in being beaten just 2L. So Sensible, second last time at the Curragh, and Donnerhall are others worth checking out.
