Rattled off a four-timer back in 2016 (latest win off 78) but struggling from his revised mark since and showed very little last month when beaten 23L at Gowran Park (7f, soft to heavy).

Well below best at Gowran Park (7f, good) last time out but has been a beacon of consistency previously and no shock to see him bounce straight back. Weighted to go close.

Had two wins from just five starts last year, including at Ballinrobe (1m1f) in July off a mark of 82, looked to be in need of the run on reappearance at Clonmel in May and cannot be ruled out with visor back on and 1lb below previous winning mark.

Showed guts to score at Naas on penultimate run (1m, good) and put up another bold show since at Leopardstown. Plenty to do on these terms but wouldn't pay to rule out easily.

Winner at Naas a fortnight ago over 7f and just failed to double up under 6lb penalty when tackling the mile at Limerick since. Remains lightly-raced and open to doing better.

A winner at Galway last summer (1m½f, yielding to soft) off a mark of 69, handicapper has had him in his grip since and will do so again here unless he improves on recent efforts.

Last win came eight starts ago in a Gowran Park handicap over 7f on soft ground in June last. Three poor runs from four starts this season and hard to recommend right now.

Tends to do herself no favours with slow breaks but did make a better fist of things at Ballinrobe (1m1f, yielding to soft) ten days ago. Not counted out but remains 6lb above sole winning mark on turf.

Forecasts

Allography (7/2), Old Time Waltz (4/1), Ruler Of France (4/1), A Shin Impala (9/2), Total Demolition (6/1), Tribal Path (13/2), Ishebayorgrey (8/1), Dance Alone (10/1), Poetic Choice (12/1), Midnitemudcrabs (14/1)

Verdict

Plenty in with chances here and it might be that RULER OF FRANCE is ready to show his best again, he appeared to need the run at Clonmel on reappearance and with the visor back on from 1lb below previous winning mark, ought to go well. It won't be easy as the likes of Allography and Old Time Waltz are in excellent heart and should have plenty to say for themselves. Ishebayorgrey was poor last time out but do not be surprised to see him right back on form and in the mix.
