Belle West

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr R O Harding⁽³⁾| T: W J Burke

66/1

Westerner filly out of a Flemensfirth mare related to Cole Harden, Gilgamboa and Friday Cheltenham winner Western Ryder. Looks to be one for the future.

Form:

Caboose³³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: C D Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

66/1

Poor point-to-point runners failing to finish in her last four starts. Looks a tall order on form shown on stable debut.

Form: 6-

Colreevy²⁸⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

4/11

Flemensfirth filly who looked set to win his point-to-point start when falling at the last in March. Likely to be a warm order here.

Form: F-

Condarcia

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Katie Walsh| T: Mrs J Harrington

14/1

Well bred filly by Presenting out of a Bach mare related to Denman, War Of Attrition and Arthurs Gift a winner at Cheltenham on Friday. Market likely to reveal expectations.

Form:

Kilbarry Calling

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr J J Codd| T: C O'Keeffe

20/1

Filly by Mahler out of a Bob's Return mare. Sire won the 2m Queens Vase and finished third in the Melbourne Cup. Worth a market check with significant jockey booking.

Form:

Lady Maram⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr J M Burke⁽⁷⁾| T: J M Burke

33/1

Ran on into fifth beaten 4¼L at 50/1 on debut at Thurles last March before a 22L defeat on return at Galway in October. Others preferred.

Form: 5-6

Mama Tried

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: William Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: Charlie Keegan

50/1

Definite Article filly out of a Mystiko mare related to Definitly Red and The Real Article. Tough ask and others preferred on debut.

Form:

Owenacurra Lass¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr D L Queally⁽³⁾| T: D Queally

33/1

Unseated on debut in a point-to-point but did fare better in her first start over hurdles at Clonmel before a disappointing 36L defeat last month. May find this tough.

Form: U67

Reine Fee^t⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr P C Bannon⁽⁷⁾| T: S Crawley

11/1

€2,500 three year old by Kalanisi. Dam was placed in a bumper. Impressive third of 16 on debut in a Galway bumper in October. Worth a market check.

Form: 3

Sister Cyclone^h³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr A H Wells⁽⁷⁾| T: Alan Wells

100/1

Well beaten on all starts and unlikely to have improved enough to be capable of landing a contest such as this.

Form: 895

Sweetlight D'oroux

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Ms L O'Neill⁽³⁾| T: G Elliott

7/1

Balko filly out of a Solon mare related to Guillaume Macaire-trained Grade 3 chase winner Michto. One to note in the betting.

Form:

The Princetonian²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: Miss K Harrington⁽³⁾| T: Mrs J Harrington

7/1

Thrown in at the deep end and not disgraced in Grade 3 on debut at Punchestown this spring before two solid runs in May. Disappointed on return last month but worth another chance here.

Form: 6-220

Non-Runners

Never Lie Down

Weight: 11-7| Age: 4

T: Adrian Mcallister J: Mr N McParlan

Forecasts

Colreevy (4/11), The Princetonian (7/1), Sweetlight D'oroux (7/1), Reine Fee (11/1), Condarcia (14/1), Kilbarry Calling (20/1), Owenacurra Lass (33/1), Lady Maram (33/1), Never Lie Down (33/1), Mama Tried (50/1), Belle West (66/1), Caboose (66/1), Sister Cyclone (100/1)

The Jessica Harrington pair The Princetonian and Condarcia are worth a market check and look fillies for the future while the Gordon Elliott-trained debutante Sweetlight D'oroux can give the likely favourite COLREEVY the most to think about.
