Winner in France in 2016 but finished well beaten on his debut for this yard at Limerick (good-to-firm) over an extended 6f last time. Return to 5f not certain to suit.

Placed over 6f at Leicester (good-to-firm) last July but failed to beat a rival home in two starts for this yard last autumn. Worth a check in the market with a visor applied on seasonal debut.

Dead-heated for a maiden on soft-to-heavy ground at Tipperary in September last year. Failed to build on that in two handicap starts this year and others hold stronger claims.

Winner of two of his last three starts including over this trip at Naas (good-to-firm) last time out. Likely to prove hard to beat despite racing off a 4lb higher mark.

Placed on the AW last year but struggled in two starts since returning to turf. Handicap mark is falling as a result but others hold stronger claims.

Returning from a break when finishing fifth of 17 over 5f at Naas (good-to-firm) recently. Has run well off higher marks in the past and is one to note on this occasion.

Struggled in three maiden races this spring and it was a similar story on handicap debut at Fairyhouse (6f, good) last time out. Wears a hood for the first time dropping in trip.

Dual winner and ran well to finish fifth in a 28 runner contest at The Curragh (5f, heavy) on her penultimate outing. Disappointed since however and latest success was nearly two years ago.

Forecasts

Blastofmagic (10/3), Jenniechild (4/1), Nora Batt (11/2), Court Queen (6/1), Ar Saoirse (6/1), Sweetest Taboo (11/1), Gala N Dandy (16/1), Fabric (20/1), Khwarizmi (20/1), Elegant Emmeline (25/1), Forza Libranno (33/1), Qatar Delight (33/1)

Verdict

BLASTOFMAGIC can complete a double by following up his recent Naas success in this competitive looking sprint handicap. The selection remains open to improvement and he is taken to get the better of Jenniechild who finished fifth behind the selection last time out while Sweetest Taboo who led for much of the aforementioned Naas contest can claim third this time.
