Count Of Carabass^p¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Chris Hayes| T: Miss H McLoughlin| OR: 56| BF| CD

12/1

Consistent sort who was beaten favourite earlier this month at Cork over the extended mile on good ground when 10L adrift of the winner. Tough ask.

Form: 325430

(1)

Rapture's Delight⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Alan Persse⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 79| D

3/1

Distance winner of a Gowran Park maiden on good to firm ground in May. Running well in defeat in two of his three handicaps since and has the form to make a bold bid here.

Form: 241392

(3)

Wajeez⁸²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Rory Cleary| T: D Hogan| OR: 89| BF

9/1

Very lightly raced gelding formerly with John Gosden who has clearly had his problems. Not seen since July 2016 and best viewed here.

Form: 17/

(4)

Drombeg Dream²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Shane Foley| T: A Leahy| OR: 99| C

8/15

Course winner here in April in a 1m handicap off a 14lb lower mark. Winner on last start at Gowran Park last month and the one to contend with here.

Form: 810691

(2)

Clifftop Dancer¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: C O'Donoghue| T: E P Harty

12/1

Canford Cliffs filly. Half-sister to several winners over a variety of trips. Failed to build on promising debut at the Curragh in May and hard to fancy here.

Form: 40

(5)

Downtown Diva^t⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Ben Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: J Davison| OR: 47

16/1

Running better than form figures would suggest until a disappointing display at the Curragh in August. Better latest but still up against it here.

Form: 287708

(6)

Paved Paradise^t⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Leigh Roche| T: E P Harty

50/1

Difficult to see where the improvement is going to come from following three gloomy maiden efforts in August. Looks opposable.

Form: 700

(8)

Sweet Cassie¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: Mrs M Danagher

100/1

Five-race maiden who is yet to start at less than 100/1. Bottom draw form looks set to continue here.

Form: 00000

Fuwairt³

Weight: 9-11| Age: 6

T: G P Cromwell J: K J Manning

Forecasts

Drombeg Dream (8/15), Rapture's Delight (3/1), Fuwairt (4/1), Wajeez (9/1), Clifftop Dancer (12/1), Count Of Carabass (12/1), Downtown Diva (16/1), Paved Paradise (50/1), Sweet Cassie (100/1)

Difficult to see past leading contender, DROMBEG DREAM here following her win at Gowran Park last month when pushed clear in the final 100 yards to win by 2½L. The solid and consistent Gavin Cromwell six-year-old Fuwairt can follow the selection home ahead of Rapture's Delight and Count Of Carabass, who can possible go well at a price.
