Moylisha Tim^b⁵⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: J J Slevin| T: R P Rath| OR: 109

20/1

Grade 3 hurdle winner as a novice in 2015, but has not won since. Stays 3m. Drops in class here and the handicapper has offered a chance.

Form: 956050

Sir Raston⁵⁵⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Flanagan| T: D McDonogh| OR: 109| D

33/1

Downpatrick maiden hurdle winner in 2016, not seen since June of last year however and likely best watched on return.

Form: B1/

Empire Burleque¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott| OR: 106| CD

8/1

Won a bumper around here in February 2017, yet to convince over timber however and needs a decent jump forward now reverting to handicaps.

Form: 11/9-445

Ilikedwayurthinkin¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-8| J: Mark Walsh| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 108

7/2

Going the right in three starts over hurdles, twice making the frame at Limerick either side of a layoff. Goes in any ground seemingly and respected on handicap debut.

Form: 62-3

Mick The Boyo⁴¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: T Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: J Grace| OR: 105| D

25/1

Scored quick double at Naas in January, both over 2m on heavy going. More on his plate from this ratings and recent comeback was a poor effort.

Form: 107-00P

Ming Dynasty²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: G N Fox| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 104

8/1

Second runner for Gavin Cromwell in this field, also making handicap debut. Stablemate Ilikedwayurthinkin looks to have more in his favour now.

Form: 8998

Ar Eagla Na Heagla^b⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-6| J: Paul Townend| T: Francis Casey| OR: 106| D

7/1

Winner over 2m on good ground at Gowran Park last month, though since ran poor race at Punchestown (2m4f, good) and has to bounce back now.

Form: 333910

Clementina^t1²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: E O'Connell⁽⁵⁾| T: A J Martin| OR: 103

7/1

Now 0-8 over timber, in the money last time at Cork over 2m on yielding ground, lacking a change of gear when it mattered. Vulnerable once more despite being on a fair mark.

Form: F0-0353

Captain Morley²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: N P Madden| T: N Madden| OR: 101

20/1

Victorious three times in the past but well beaten in four starts since joining this yard and hard to put faith in for now.

Form: 5/438-00

All The Chimneys⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: D J Mullins| T: W J Austin| OR: 100| CD

6/1

C&D winner in 2016, took advantage of reduced mark to get back amongst winners at Clonmel (2m½f, yielding to soft) this moth and should shape well back here.

Form: 3256-01

Trans Wood¹⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr T Power Roche⁽⁷⁾| T: G M Doyle| OR: 97

14/1

Scored at Listowel in the summer over 2m4f but pair of runs since have been underwhelming and remains unconvincing from increased mark.

Form: 3-42107

Darcy Mcgees^h1²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: M A Enright| T: J T R Dreaper| OR: 96

20/1

Not much to shout about in three maiden hurdles in spring of 2017, off a long time and while having a point-to-point run recently to sharpen him, doesn't appeal on handicap bow.

Form: 940/4

Here For The Craic¹⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 10-11| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: D Budds| OR: 94| D

16/1

Well held from 1lb higher over C&D last month and since played up, refusing to race, on the Flat at Dundalk.

Form: 0F/79-48

Emily Square⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: B J Cooper| T: T Mullins| OR: 93

12/1

Career-best when second of 16 at this meeting 12-months ago off a 2lb lower mark. Generally well held in three starts since and needs to improve on even her best form.

Form: 5/027-F9

Dragon Houdini^t²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Donagh Meyler| T: S Crawley| OR: 95

25/1

An €18,000 three-year-old, Yeats filly. Half-sister to bumper winner/fair 2m hurdle winner The Birdie Crowe. Makes limited appeal on evidence of maiden hurdles but could improve now handicapping.

Form: 884

Uno Momento^h,t⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: S G McDermott| T: T Mullins| OR: 93

25/1

0-5 over hurdles and hasn't really convinced there is better to come since switching to handicaps. Must improve.

ILIKEDWAYURTHINKIN has caught the eye either side of a break at Limerick behind some promising sorts and Gavin Cromwell's charge gets the nod for a winning start in handicap company this afternoon. All The Chimneys has C&D form but might just be high enough in the ratings for win purposes while Mick The Boyo could harbour place claims if coming on for his reappearance at Naas.
