Lucius Tiberius⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 93| CD

9/4

Won his maiden here on his fourth start but hasn't improved from that in two subsequent efforts. Slow start didn't help him at Royal Ascot last time out and may be capable of better.

Form: 63-2130

(7)

Bucky Larson^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 85

5/1

Won on his third start and turf debut at Leopardstown and arrives here bidding for a hat-trick after a win on handicap debut back at that course last time out. Only up 2lb for that and step up in trip likely to unlock further improvement.

Form: 2511

(1)

Night Of Power⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: C O'Donoghue| T: J M Oxx| OR: 82| BF

7/2

Failed to justify short-priced favouritism at Navan last time out but ran with credit in defeat and possibly did too much too soon. Capable of further improvement, particularly now tried on quicker ground.

Form: 421-2

(2)

Swiss Cottage^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Gary Carroll| T: J G Murphy| OR: 82

20/1

Struggling for any sort of form this season and shaped as if amiss last time out at Down Royal. Still a maiden and looks in need of relief from the handicapper.

Form: 350-457

(4)

Active Approach⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 80

7/1

Seemingly improved from two to three and unlucky not to have got her head in front in two starts this campaign. Unexposed and not ruled out despite her maiden status.

Form: 3386-22

(3)

Lethal Power¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S Foley| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 79| D

7/2

Gained his first win with a game effort at Roscommon last time in a maiden, winning from the front. Yard flying at present and he's been dropped 1lb for his return to handicap company.

Form: 056-241

Forecasts

Lucius Tiberius (9/4), Lethal Power (7/2), Night Of Power (7/2), Bucky Larson (5/1), Magnetic North (6/1), Active Approach (7/1), Swiss Cottage (20/1)

BUCKY LARSON makes plenty of appeal in his hat-trick bid with the step up in trip likely to suit. Lethal Power isn't ruled out from a workable mark and the colt was impressive winning a maiden last time. Night Of Power may improve for the quicker ground here and ran with credit in defeat last time out.
