Placed over 1m at this venue on his most recent run earlier this month. Step up in trip not guaranteed to suit.

Poor form when finishing ninth of 14 beaten 8½L over C&D in November. Well held over hurdles since and plenty to work on based on what he has shown so far.

Promising second of 14 beaten a short-head over C&D last month on first start for yard. Another bold show looks on the cards from favourable draw.

Running well in defeat of late including a 3L reversal over C&D in October. Shapes like he will appreciate the drop in trip.

Failed to build on a promising run in November with a couple of dismal efforts over C&D towards the end of the year. Hard to construct much of a case for him.

Two from 12 over C&D with his last win coming in February 2017 off a 21lb higher mark. Clearly regressing and others preferred.

Home-bred improved to finish third of 14 beaten 3L over C&D earlier this month.Could be capable of having her say here.

Has rendered a couple of satisfactory runs over C&D including a 2¾L defeat last month. More progress possible here and not lightly dismissed.

Well down the pack in two career starts at this venue for previous handler Jim Bolger. Possibly best watched stepping up in trip on stable debut.

Seven race maiden showing relatively little in defeat. First-time blinkers unlikely to spark required improvement needed to play a role.

Has been left toiling in a number of horrid efforts since returning to action last spring. Others look to be progressing at a quicker rate so the Born To Sea mare needs to up her game.

Sixth of 13 beaten 3L over C&D was promising but has been well held on the Flat and over hurdles since. First-time blinkers unlikely to make much difference.

10-race maiden and without success in seven Flat starts on turf. Looks a tall order looking at overall form.

Far from disgraced in a couple of starts this month including a 5½L defeat over C&D. Needs to improve but not ruled out.

Forecasts

Feisty Katerina (9/4), Edification (9/2), Noble Intention (6/1), Fiannaiocht (8/1), Brokopondo (9/1), Stealth (12/1), Yarraman (12/1), Lady Kimberley (12/1), Thomas O'Malley (16/1), Another Dressin (25/1), Vocal Relation (25/1), Fianchetto (33/1), Beat Of The Sea (50/1), Rooney O'mara (66/1)

Verdict

FEISTY KATERINA can overcome her 4lb rise in the weights to land the spoils in this contest following a promising second of 14 beaten a short-head over C&D last month on first start for yard. Course winner, Noble Intention and C&D winner Brokopondo can both go well at a price for each-punters.
  1. Feisty Katerina
  2. Noble Intention
  3. Brokopondo
