TRI Equestrian Handicap Chase (Grade B)

Off time: 16:15 | Winning time: 5m 33.00s

Jett^p¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: R M Power| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 144| C

8/1

Hasn't won for over a year and some of his recent efforts have lacked his old spark. Needs a return to his old form to take this.

Form: 38U743

Woods Well^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: M A Enright| T: G Elliott| OR: 136| D

14/1

All out to land a four runner race at Galway in October but has struggled in better company since though the drop both in class and trip today are in his favour.

Form: 6-10090

Monatomic⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: D F O'Regan| T: G Elliott| OR: 130| D

7/2

Consistent sort and raised his game when only finding a rapidly improving sort too good at Naas a week ago. 5lb rise to overcome but a similar run will surely put him in the mix.

Form: 2351F2

Ask Nile^b²²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: J J Slevin| T: S Neville| OR: 129

4/1

Back over fences, and back to form on latest. This demands more but this isn't a strong race for the money and not without a chance.

Form: 364723

Teacher's Pet^p,t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-9| J: L P Dempsey| T: J P Dempsey| OR: 129| D

5/1

Highly tried in a Listed chase last time but not disgraced and that came on the back of a good effort when just failing to concede 24lb to the winner at Thurles. Losing run building up but recent efforts suggest a win is not far away.

Form: 836423

Dakota Moirette^p⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 128| BF

9/2

Probably in the process of finishing second when falling at the last on latest. Up in trip today and probably needs to improve for it but that is a possibility.

Form: 8U432F

Kylecrue^b³

Age: 12| Weight: 10-3| J: Liam Quinlan⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 123| D

7/1

In the veteran stage but still capable of a bold show though third in a small field on Thursday wouldn't be good enough.

Form: 842603

Capture The Drama³

Age: 11| Weight: 9-10| J: Darragh O'Keeffe⁽⁷⁾| T: Aengus King| OR: 114

10/1

Front runner who has plenty of wins over fences to his name but generally in lower grade and needs to bounce back to his very best to take this.

Form: 787302

Forecasts

Monatomic (7/2), Ask Nile (4/1), Dakota Moirette (9/2), Teacher's Pet (5/1), Kylecrue (7/1), Jett (8/1), Capture The Drama (10/1), Woods Well (14/1)

A disappointing turn out for the money and a repeat of his run last week may be good enough for MONATOMIC to get back in the winners enclosure. Ask Nile ran well over fences last time and may have more to come while if Dakota Moirette improves for the longer trip, he should be in the mix.
