A 13-race maiden whose efforts on turf last year were mostly disappointing, did shape with some promise in handicaps at Cork (1m4f, yielding) and the Curragh (1m2f, yielding) in August off a mark of 65. Off since poor show over latter trip at Dundalk (AW) in December.

Winner of a mile maiden at Listowel in September on heavy ground and also gone well in handicap over 1m4f at Leopardstown (yielding) following month. Entitled to have needed recent Fairyhouse run and potentially a player here if improving for it.

Mostly running below his best in four AW runs up until April, has been given a rest since, has shaped with some minor promise in turf maidens last year. Capable of having a say off 60, though probably has to improve to do so.

Surprise 33/1 winner of 1m4f Leopardstown handicap (yielding) in October off a mark of 57, poor in two turf runs in April/May and has a lot to prove after Clonmel no-show last time out (2m1f, good to firm). This trip perhaps more suitable.

Landed Roscommon maiden hurdle last August but hasn't shone since in six starts, including when last spotted on the Flat over this trip on the AW at Dundalk in May (beaten 8½L). Hard to fancy on form.

Mare bounced back to form when just headed in the shadows of the post over this trip at Fairyhouse (good) on penultimate start, not quite as good on AW at Dundalk since off increased rating but can be given a chance in this company.

Lightly-raced gelding has been unable to land any blow in pair of handicaps so far, was not without support last time at Naas (1m2f, yielding) but faded tamely. Interesting to see how market finds him this time over longer trip for the first time.

Authorized filly had been disappointing before showing improved form when narrowly denied over this sort of trip at Limerick in April (good), runs off a 2lb higher mark now but a player if ready to build on that run.

Authorized gelding whose sole career success came here over 1m6f (soft to heavy) in May 2015. Back on the Flat a fortnight ago over this trip and ran close third (Dark Amber second) returning from a break so cannot be ruled out of calculations.

All four career wins have come over 6f (latest in June 2015), ran fair race behind some of these rivals at Fairyhouse over this trip earlier in the month but just some lingering doubts about stamina for this test.

An 11-race maiden, the Fastnet Rock gelding produced a much-improved effort late last month at Tipperary when upped to this kind of trip, finishing close third of 15. Chance to build on that now from 2lb higher mark.

Beaten only 2½L over 1m4f on good ground at the Curragh recently and has been showing some consistency this season without shedding maiden tag. Runs from the same mark here and has to be given some sort of chance on the back of that run.

Nine-race maiden, mostly struggling to land a blow on previous turf efforts. Not seen anywhere since December 2015 and surely going to need this run on return from 582 days off.

Just one win from 23 starts and four outings back from a 537-day layoff have not offered much hope of adding to that tally. Best watched at the moment.

Eight-year-old mare remains a maiden after 31 runs on the Flat/over jumps. Suffered succession of heavy defeats in the latter sphere to end last year, off since September and has plenty to find on previous Flat form.

Won over this trip in August at Tramore (good) from a mark of 55, mostly a struggle this year over shorter distances, could have some interest now returned to this kind of test.

Forecasts

Get Out Of Jail (10/3), Lizard Point (6/1), Park Row (8/1), Carta Blanca (10/1), Dark Amber (10/1), Nannys Well (10/1), Traidisiun (10/1), In Our Blood (11/1), Sharp Operator (11/1), Mallory Heights (11/1), Caminel (12/1), Rockview Emperor (16/1), Whistling Straits (16/1), Crown Pleasure (25/1), Carraigin Aonair (25/1), Auld Brig (25/1), Color Model (25/1), Mister Buddy (33/1), Ice Ice Baby (50/1)

Verdict

PARK ROW didn't set the world alight on the AW over the winter/spring, though he did win an apprentice handicap off a mark of 68. He returns to turf, where he showed a degree of promise last summer, off an 8lb lower mark and might be worth chancing for a winning return with his trainer amongst the winner recently. Nannys Well should improve for the reappearance at Fairyhouse and will have a say if doing so while Carta Blanca, Dark Amber and Get Out Of Jail also feature on the list of those likely to run well.
