Course winner who failed to build on a promising return to this venue in September when finishing second of 14 over this distance when well beaten over 1m2f in October. May appreciate return to 1m.

C&D winner for Aiden O'Brien back in February 2016 off a similar mark. Won a Tramore maiden hurdle in April for current yard and worth a market check on return to this venue.

Some fair efforts in maidens early this year for previous yard, well held on testing ground at Listowel in September. Last of 14 on venue debut last month well beaten 41L. Out of his depth here.

Three time course winner but has generally struggled over this trip. Third of 14 last time out here beaten 5½L behind Timia. Could grab a place off a 3lb lower mark than last win.

Distance winner but beaten favourite last time out here when finishing second of 14 a short-head behind Masalai. Up 3lb for that effort but can go well again despite losing run now totaling 30.

Winner at this venue beating Goodnite Irina a nose last month over 7f. Up 5lb for the win but may not fully appreciate the step up to 1m.

First-time cheekpieces are reached for following a series of solid and consistent near-misses here in the last couple of months. Could well be perked up by the headgear and one to consider.

Filly is a maiden after 12 starts, ran a promising race over 7f here two starts back to finish third of 14, before a 2¼L defeat last time out in October.

First Reserve: 2L fifith of 14 here over 1m in March, close at Tipperary over 1m before eighth of 14 but only beaten 2L here over 1m. Worth a market check.

10/1
Second Reserve: Twice tailed off over 1m4f here in recent runs, ensuring he is hard to put faith in now despite dropping to a trip he won a C&D claimer over in March. Others have stronger claims.

Third Reserve: Modest 46-rated handicapper on the turf being a six-race maiden. Best watched on Polytrack debut.

Forecasts

Complicit (3/1), Koybig (7/2), La Cumparsita (9/2), Aunty Audrey (5/1), Tom Dooley (8/1), Hes Our Music (10/1), World's Greatest (12/1), Park Row (12/1), Polymnia (14/1), Ineffable (14/1), Oor Jock (16/1), Duckanddive (16/1), Military Hill (20/1), Newlands Voice (20/1), Check 'em Tuesday (25/1), Acari (33/1), Rimshot (33/1)

Verdict

Difficult to gauge where the pace may come from here in this intriguing contest with possibly Duckanddive, Check Em Tuesday and World's Greatest taking up the mantle to lead in the early stages. Complicit, La Cumparsita and Aunty Audrey have all gone well here recently but preference is for the consistent KOYBIG with the handicapper giving him a chance here still on the same mark as his 1L win last time out.
