20/1

Placed three times on the Flat for Ralph Beckett before moving yards. Has been well beaten over hurdles recently and possibly best watched on this step up in trip.

10/1

Travelling well until the final furlong on seasonal debut last month at Navan over 1m3f eventually finishing fourth of 10. 14-race maiden needs plenty of luck here.

Form: 23400-4

10/1

Made late headway over this trip to finish fourth of 14 beaten over 5L on the AW at Dundalk last month. Could go well if handling the ground.

20/1

Distance winner at Dundalk on the AW in March when beating 12 rivals 2L before disappointing last month at Navan over 1m3f. Could be interesting on return to this trip.

Form: 000-010

Torquay²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: E J McNamara| T: E McNamara| OR: 56

25/1

Well beaten and never nearer in two hurdle starts recently both at Limerick. Handy performer on the AW for Harry Dunlop but disappointed in four Flat starts last term for this yard.

Runyon Rattler²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: K J Manning| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 51| D

10/3

Promising third of 13 beaten 4L in a Navan handicap over 1m5f on heavy ground last month. Solid 133-rated hurdler and should make his presence felt here.

Form: 0/0657-3

Dixie Highway¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: Leigh Roche| T: P J Flynn| OR: 47| CD

8/1

Form: 0668-32

Rolanna^p¹⁸²

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: W J Martin| OR: 47

8/1

Modest 102-rated hurdler and is just one from 16 on the Flat. Will possibly need the run on return to the track.

Form: 90/3678-

Sinndar Sandy⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Wayne Lordan| T: Michael G Cleary| OR: 47| D

17/2

Less than 5L away in fourth over 1m4f here recently, goes up in trip here and must improve to shed maiden tag.

Form: 0000/65

Ice Ice Baby^b,t¹⁹³

Age: 9| Weight: 8-8| J: N G McCullagh| T: F Oakes| OR: 45

50/1

Without a win in nine starts on the Flat and never a factor when finishing last of 16 in a Gowran Park handicap over 1m4f last July on last start on the level.

Form: 79500/0-

Lady Mona Lisa^p⁸⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: E Sheehy| OR: 45

50/1

Hurdling recently and not seen on the Flat since disappointing in a Galway handicap over 1m4f handicap on soft ground in September. Possibly needs a faster surface.

Form: 697/00-

Turasoir²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: C P Hoban| T: J W Nicholson| OR: 45| D

17/2

Well beaten on two starts this term including a 6½L defeat on the AW at Dundalk last month. Looks opposable.

Form: 8047-56

Agatha Rose¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Damien Melia⁽⁷⁾| T: D Kinsella| OR: 45

66/1

Poor low-grade 46-rated handicapper on the Flat well beaten on all nine career starts and very little to be positive about.

Forecasts

Runyon Rattler (10/3), Prince Charmin' (4/1), A Place Apart (9/2), Rolanna (8/1), Dixie Highway (8/1), Turasoir (17/2), Sinndar Sandy (17/2), Bibliotheca (10/1), Touch Of Gold (10/1), Pivot Bridge (20/1), Lily Trotter (20/1), Torquay (25/1), Sindirana Queen (33/1), Lady Mona Lisa (50/1), Ice Ice Baby (50/1), Agatha Rose (66/1)

Solid 133-rated hurdler RUNYON RATTLER can get off the mark on the Flat here following a promising third of 13 beaten 4L in a Navan handicap over 1m5f on heavy ground last month. The Gavin Cromwell-trained A Place Apart merits consideration based on his second of 17 at Fairyhouse in October while game 10-year-old Pivot Bridge is one to ponder on return to this trip.
