Serefeli⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Ronan Whelan| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 64

8/1

Running well in defeat over the summer. Always likely to bump in to one or two better handicapped in recent weeks and this contest is no different.

Form: 544457

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D M Redmond⁽⁵⁾| T: P J F Hassett| OR: 62| CD

6/1

C&D winner here in June off a 1lb lower mark. Beaten since over the summer and heading back to a level he can be dangerous from.

Form: 510444

Touch Of Gold^t⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Chris Hayes| T: M Kennedy| OR: 62

12/1

Well held when last of 11 at Dundalk on the AW last week, but summer turf form puts him in the mix here.

Form: 022330

Dream Point¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: S M Crosse⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 65

9/1

Still a maiden after 10 starts over a variety of trips. Can go well but may find one or two too good in this contest.

Form: 334S54

Getgo⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: C O'Donoghue| T: K H Clarke| OR: 58

33/1

Good form over this trip on the AW at Dundalk previously but has failed to transfer that model on turf, suffering a number of heavy defeats recently.

Form: 913008

Wavepoint²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Gary Carroll| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 61

6/1

Second of 15 beaten the shortest of margins in a Navan handicap on good ground recently over a similar trip. Any market confidence should be noted.

Form: 046102

Wedding Photo¹⁸⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Manning| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 55

16/1

Beaten favourite on sole start for Saeed bin Suroor last September and purchased for £25,000 by current connections subsequently. Beaten in two starts on the AW at Dundalk in the spring and best watched here.

Form: 6-36

Invincible Queen^p⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Ben Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: M Fahey| OR: 53

4/1

Second of 16 recently in a promising start at Gowran Park earlier this month over 1m. Step up in trip likely to be positive.

Form: 424262

(3)

Shelbe²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁷⁾| T: S Wilson| OR: 51

20/1

Lightly raced mare recently made her return to action in a Down Royal 7f handicap earlier this month, finishing third of 14 beaten a little over 3L on good ground. Open to plenty of improvement.

Form: 005386

Lovely Is The Rose^t²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Hugh Horgan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 55

25/1

Nothing in three maiden starts to recommend and handicap starts at Roscommon and Navan didn't produce any improvement.

Form: 50080

(10)

Konig Hall^p,t²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 8-13| J: R P Downey| T: A McCann| OR: 49| BF

7/1

Without a win on the Flat since June 2017 off a 4lb higher mark and the veteran is slowly dropping to a mark he can be dangerous from.

Form: 708604

(19)

Utalkintomeboy^v1⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 54

33/1

Well down the field in three starts to date and first time visor unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 367

(18)

Saint Irini^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁷⁾| T: E D Delany| OR: 48| D

25/1

Has been left toiling in a number of turf starts since the spring before not finding Laytown's beach to his liking on a recent visit there. Looks vulnerable in this company.

Form: 0-65704

(16)

Misty Dawn²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: T P Madden⁽⁵⁾| T: A Murray| OR: 52

33/1

Nothing of note in three dour career starts to date. Even her best form would probably leave her short of what is required here.

Form: 500

(14)

Lady Argentum^b²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Leigh Roche| T: T Gibney| OR: 45

20/1

Now a 31-race maiden, no impact in Ballinrobe claimer over 1m1½f last month and in a 2m4f hurdles race at the same track, before another heavy defeat at Navan earlier in the month. Easier to look elsewhere for the winner.

Form: 4-20058

(8)

Rosenborg Rider^b⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Shane Foley| T: A McGuinness| OR: 45

20/1

Slight hint of promise in a Dundalk appearance on the AW recently finishing sixth of 14 over 1m, but overall framework leaves a little to be desired.

Form: 400006

(11)

Dawn Arrival^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: C P Hoban| T: G B Caldwell| OR: 45

33/1

Showed nothing in two outings for Jim Bolger last year and sold for just 2,500 guineas to current connections. Not much to shout about just yet.

Form: 50-0U

(2)

Emperor Of Fashion^b1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Rory Cleary| T: J Geoghegan| OR: 45

33/1

Has produced a number of laboured runs since May, never a factor on each occasion. Hard to see him making any significant impact in first-time blinkers.

Form: 87000

(15)

Raise The Tempo³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: C O'Dwyer| OR: 45

12/1

Best effort so far came when finishing 3½L seventh over 7f at Dundalk back in March, before finishing fourth of 16 beaten a little over 2L at Tipperary last month.

Forecasts

Invincible Queen (4/1), Wavepoint (6/1), Happy Company (6/1), Konig Hall (7/1), Highly Toxic (7/1), Chaparral Dream (7/1), Serefeli (8/1), Dream Point (9/1), Touch Of Gold (12/1), Raise The Tempo (12/1), Wedding Photo (16/1), Daly An Sceil (16/1), Shelbe (20/1), Rosenborg Rider (20/1), Lady Argentum (20/1), Saint Irini (25/1), Lovely Is The Rose (25/1), Cork Harbour (25/1), Getgo (33/1), Utalkintomeboy (33/1), Dawn Arrival (33/1), Emperor Of Fashion (33/1), Misty Dawn (33/1)

The likes of Daly An Sceil, Wavepoint and Lady Argentum are probably pace makers here in the early stages, paving the way for a couple of closers, notably, INVINCIBLE QUEEN who can possibly get a settled position drawn one before making his move. The consistent four-year-old can see off the attentions of Highly Toxic, Konig Hall and Touch Of Gold who are all capable of hitting the frame.
