Damut^p,h⁴⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: D J McInerney⁽³⁾| T: M Winters| OR: 125| D

10/1

Winner of two of his six races over this trip but hasn't run over the distance for over two years. Out of form in three starts since November and overall record casts doubt on his ability to get competitive.

Form: 6420P4

Dylrow^t⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: A W Short⁽³⁾| T: R Hennessy| OR: 123| D

4/1

Has developed in to a promising sort since completing a Fairyhouse double in January landing beginners and handicap contest in good style. Another bold show likely despite a 7lb higher mark.

Form: 7R-3P11

Reach Up^t⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-8| J: Liam Quinlan⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 121| D

5/2

Winner of a Gowran Park novice handicap chase last month over a similar trip off a 7lb lower mark, beating five rivals 3L. Beaten stepping up in trip earlier this month but likely more to come for connections back over this distance.

Form: 583F14

Lean And Keen^t¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: D F O'Regan| T: S Byrne| OR: 118| D

12/1

Solid and consistent sort when running well in defeat in a number of beginners contests in the summer and on return to action earlier this month behind Snugsborough Hall. Reliable type who should go well again.

Form: F-424U2

Crazyheart^p¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-8| J: Mark Walsh| T: P Nolan| OR: 107| BF| D

3/1

Hit the frame over C&D in a maiden hurdle here over three years ago and landed a Tramore novice chase over the trip in January. Beaten since but can go well with conditions to suit for inform yard.

Form: 316U43

Runyon Rattler^b1¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: J P O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 107| CD

8/1

Gallant C&D winner but has looked a shadow of his former self in a series of poor efforts since December. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 46U796

Cloudy Morning^v¹⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 10-4| J: C A Landers⁽⁵⁾| T: D Queally| OR: 103| C| D

5/1

Fresh from a number of point-to-point starts. Course winner that has also won over this trip. 11 race maiden over the larger obstacles and it's looking a little late in the day now to be getting off the mark.

Form: 213512

Forecasts

Reach Up (5/2), Crazyheart (3/1), Dylrow (4/1), Cloudy Morning (5/1), Runyon Rattler (8/1), Damut (10/1), Lean And Keen (12/1)

Starting to show some promise following a couple of deserved successes at Fairyhouse in January, DYLROW can land a hat-trick of wins in this contest despite a 7lb higher mark. The nine-year-old can hold off the potential challenge from Crazyheart for the Paul Nolan yard who were among the winners on Saturday. Lean And Keen together with Cloudy Morning look the best of the rest.
