Gina Dale Haze & The Conquerors Gig July 13th Handicap (45-65)

Off time: 17:23 | Winning time: 1m 50.74s

(4)

Lomi's Law^h³⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: E J McNamara| T: A McNamara| OR: 61| D

16/1

First run for six months when fifth of 16 at Gowran Park last month. Runs off the same mark and should strip fitter for the outing.

Form: 85350-5

(5)

Beau Satchel^t¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: T M Sherry⁽¹⁰⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 60| C

8/1

On quite a long losing run, but handicapper has been slow to react. Others make more appeal at the weights.

Form: 247094

(13)

Intense Stylist^b¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁷⁾| T: A Moriarty| OR: 56

33/1

One win in 30 starts while three runs this season have been underwhelming. No reason to think a revival is on the cards on ground which is quick enough for her.

Form: 339-000

(15)

Cosmic Symbol^p⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Ross Coakley⁽³⁾| T: G Webb| OR: 53

14/1

Left some disappointing displays behind when third of 14 at Roscommon six days ago. Enters calculations on the back of that improved effort.

Form: 700003

(10)

La Cumparsita^p1¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Colin Keane| T: J J Murphy| OR: 53

16/1

Showed improved form when fitted with blinkers for the first time at Gowran Park last month, but connections opt for cheekpieces this time. Hard to know what to expect, but is an intriguing runner.

Form: 164-006

(11)

Eadbhard^h⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: T P Madden⁽⁵⁾| T: S M Duffy| OR: 63

14/1

Remains a maiden after 11 starts, but seems to try hard enough and ran well again to be second at Roscommon six days ago. Each-way claims in an ordinary race.

Form: 324322

(2)

Baby Bellini^t¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Chris Hayes| T: I Madden| OR: 51

20/1

Maiden after 20 starts, but recent displays have been solid enough and he should be competitive. Not one for win purposes, however.

Form: 5-92666

(7)

Cracking Name^b,t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Wayne Lordan| T: D Marnane| OR: 50

7/1

Has put some disappointing efforts behind him with good efforts on last two starts. Handicapped to go well and is one of the more likely sorts in an open race.

Form: 76-0053

(16)

Hey Pretty^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Shane Foley| T: J C McConnell| OR: 61

4/1

One of the more progressive runners in the line-up. Ran well to be a close second off 6lb lower last time and should be in the mix despite his higher rating.

Form: 0-08142

(18)

Tynamite¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Alan Persse⁽¹⁰⁾| T: P F McEnery| OR: 48

33/1

Lower mark on turf than the AW, but latest effort at Gowran Park did not suggest a return to the winner's enclosure was imminent. Lightly raced, though, and not entirely out of it.

Form: 19-8489

(9)

Althib⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁷⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 47| BF

10/1

Maiden after nine starts, but has been running quite well of late. Steps up in trip and is worth monitoring in the betting market.

Form: 000329

(12)

Ask Katie^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: C P Hoban| T: G Webb| OR: 47| C

18/1

Not at her best in four runs this season, but was not disgraced at Listowel last time. Has dropped to a viable handicap mark.

Form: 10-6767

(14)

Bella Rua^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Killian Leonard⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J M Lee| OR: 47

11/1

Maiden after 10 starts, but is usually thereabouts. On career-low mark and has an each-way shout.

Form: 22-0454

(3)

Aunty Audrey¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Leigh Roche| T: P J Flynn| OR: 46| C

4/1

Only win came over C&D and showed she was in good heart when a close third of 17 at Gowran Park last time. On a good mark and looks a serious contender from her low draw.

Form: 35-0843

(1)

Crossingoz^t⁵⁸⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: M A Gallagher| T: W J Fitzpatrick| OR: 45

33/1

Out of the frame in 11 starts, the last four of them on the AW at Dundalk. No obvious reason why she should alter that trend.

Form: 098505/

(6)

Desert Dancer^h⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Rory Cleary| T: Miss J M Lee| OR: 45

33/1

Not much to enthuse over in two most recent starts, but both were on heavy ground and conditions should be very different this time. Maiden after 20 races and has plenty to prove.

Form: 606-890

(8)

Still Alive¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A J McNamara| OR: 45

33/1

Moderate on the Flat and over hurdles. First time in a handicap on the level and is hard to fancy.

Form: 900-

Non-Runners

Forecasts

Hey Pretty (4/1), Aunty Audrey (4/1), Texas Radio (5/1), Cracking Name (7/1), Beau Satchel (8/1), Althib (10/1), Bella Rua (11/1), Eadbhard (14/1), Cosmic Symbol (14/1), Lomi's Law (16/1), La Cumparsita (16/1), Ask Katie (18/1), Baby Bellini (20/1), Tynamite (33/1), Intense Stylist (33/1), Still Alive (33/1), Desert Dancer (33/1), Crossingoz (33/1), Greengage (33/1), Sovereigns Rock (66/1), Weardiditallgorong (200/1)

A run-of-the-mill finale which may go to AUNTY AUDREY, who ran well when third at Gowran Park on her latest start and remains on a viable handicap rating. Ask Katie has dropped to a fair mark and could go well, while Cracking Name is another for the short list. In an open race, there are reasons to think that the likes of Lomi's Law, Cosmic Symbol, La Cumparsita, Eadbhard and Bella Rua should be competitive.
