C&D winner but form has dipped recently including last time out here when 11th of 13 beaten 10½L. First-time cheekpieces may see him in better light.

C&D winner who ran well to finish fourth of 14 beaten just over 2L last time out here earlier this month. Worth a market check.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Gavin Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: S Lavery| OR: 73

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: R G Ryan⁽⁴⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 72| C

15/2

Course winner who has stepped forward over the course of the summer including a win at Hamilton in May. Bumped and hampered last time out at Navan in a run that can be chalked off. Shouldn't be underestimated.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: K K Hennessy⁽²⁾| T: J Feane| OR: 74

Madame Cherie^v²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Madden| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 72

Connections happy enough with the return of a visor last time out when showing slight improvement on recent starts at Fairyhouse. Will still need to improve a chunk to play a role here.

Forecasts

Mr Ormsby (4/1), Sheisdiesel (5/1), Beau Satchel (6/1), Captain Cullen (13/2), Try Again (15/2), Midnitemudcrabs (8/1), Delegating (10/1), Storm Ryker (11/1), Mo Henry (12/1), Roachdale House (14/1), Storm Ranger (16/1), Khabaray (20/1), Split The Atom (20/1), Palavicini Run (20/1), Settle For Bay (25/1), Vincita (40/1), Madame Cherie (50/1)

Early speed here could be contested from stalls 13 and 14 with Try Again and Madame Cherie vying for the lead. The ultra-consistent Sheisdiesel and the visored Mo Henry could easily hit the frame here but preference is for the game BEAU SATCHEL winner last time out here earlier in the month.
