7/1
Yet to win in 11 starts but has run some fair races in defeat and a return to turf should suit here. Interesting runner with a useful claimer taking off 5lb.

Twice a winner at Dundalk but yet to win in 11 tries on turf. Doesn't always break cleanly (can rear/fly leap) and others preferred on that basis.

7/1
Dundalk winner in April and effective on turf despite not winning in 19 starts away from AW. May need a little relief from the handicapper before he's of interest again.

A winner at Chelmsford last year but he's shown nothing in five starts since joining this yard. Has a bit to prove at present.

A winner at Dundalk in November but only beaten one rival home in each of her last two starts. First-time blinkers need to spark a return to form.

Yet to win in four starts and not much promise in any of those runs. First-time tongue-tie will need to work the oracle.

One win from 12 starts. Useful when she gets her conditions but ground has seemingly gone against her here.

Improved markedly on first start for this yard at Killarney last time out when third of 14. May build on that here and market should reveal expectations.

One win from nine starts. Not shown anything in two turf runs and may need some relief from the handicapper before becoming of interest.

Yet to win in eight starts but has run well from higher marks than this in handicap company and not ruled out if the first-time blinkers eke out some improvement.

Not won in seven starts but produced a markedly better effort when placed last time out and has claims here if he can back that run up.

This will the 121st race of his career (six wins) but hasn't scored on turf since 2014 and well held recently at Tipperary.

It is now 35 races and no win for this maiden, little in formbook to suggest that will change soon and not suited on these terms in any case.

Badly out of form in recent times. Shown very little for this yard and well beaten at Limerick when last of 16 last month. Hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Pedisnap (4/1), Althib (5/1), Cracking Name (7/1), A Likely Story (7/1), Goodnite Irina (7/1), See You Mush (10/1), Tynamite (14/1), La Cumparsita (16/1), Baby Power (16/1), Oor Jock (16/1), Intense Starlet (16/1), Baile An Roba (20/1), Reddot Express (20/1), Spanish Dawn (33/1), Vocal Activity (33/1), Scobias (33/1)

Verdict

Goodnite Irina may be a maiden but she's consistent and not out of this off top weight. However, it's BABY POWER who gets the tentative vote in first-time headgear having run well off higher marks than this before. Pedisnap ran well for her new yard last time and can't be ruled out with more progress possible.
  1. Baby Power
  2. Goodnite Irina
  3. Pedisnap
