Secret Wizard¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Robbie Colgan| T: S Lavery| OR: 75| C

12/1

Consistent when running well in defeat in a number of starts since July. Course winner that has also won over the trip but others look open to more improvement.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Ben Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 73

5/1

Distance winner who landed a Roscommon 1m2½f handicap last month off a 4lb lower mark. Holds strong place claims here.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Chris Hayes| T: H Rogers| OR: 67

12/1

Winner over this trip two-years ago. Out of form lately now running 11lb lower than last winning mark. Tough ask.

8/1

Not beaten far in a series of gallant efforts in defeat including finishing third of 12 beaten a little over 5L earlier this month at Naas. Open to significant improvement.

Uluru Park¹⁵

Dream Point⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 67| BF

12/1

Still a maiden after nine starts over a variety of trips. Can go well but may find one or two too good.

Our Anniversary¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: A J Slattery⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs D A Love| OR: 62

11/1

Distance winner of a Cork handicap on heavy ground in March. May have needed run on return to action recently at Roscommon but likely to be better handicapped sorts lurking.

Form: 36-1400

Anfaass²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: T J O'Mara| OR: 61

20/1

One win came as a two-year-old for George Margarson before he lost his way. Just respectable efforts for current yard, and needs a bit more help from the assessor on recent evidence.

Form: 08-7550

Cache Queen^b¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 66

8/1

Enjoying a fine summer, with wins at Killarney and Down Royal in July over longer trips. Second here last month over a similar trip in a race where the form hasn't quite worked out.

Shemara¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 64

12/1

Very disappointing on handicap debut when last over 1m2f at Killarney after showing plenty of potential in maidens before a dismal run at the Curragh latest. Likely to struggle here.

Form: 35280

Midnight Drummer^b1,t⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: L F Roche| T: D Bunyan & G O'Leary| OR: 63

33/1

Well behind in two career starts and first-time blinkers inconceivable to produce the required amount of development needed to play a role here.

Form: 700

Feeling Easy⁹²

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: N G McCullagh| T: A Mulholland| OR: 57

20/1

Well held on quick ground when last seen at Naas in June. Best efforts come on soft ground so market check based on her third at Navan in April.

Form: 104-030

Giorni Felice^b⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: C P Hoban| T: E Lynam| OR: 56

12/1

Out of form since winning a 1m2f Roscommon maiden in August last year. Requires a chunk of improvement to play a role here.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: T Cleary| OR: 58

Little impact in a series of inept displays since July over a large variety of trips. May find it tough going here.

Form: 438800

INSIGNIA OF RANK can build on a series of gallant efforts in defeat including finishing third of 12 beaten a little over 5L earlier this month at Naas by landing the spoils here in a competitive contest where the handicapper appears to have given the gelding a good squeak here. Last time out beaten favourite, Caesars Comet, Dream Point from the Joseph O'Brien yard and Cache Queen are capable of hitting the frame here.
