(4)

Caesar's Comet^p²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: K J Leonard⁽³⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 63| D

7/1

Has won two of his eight starts over this trip and has not been disgraced in three starts here since returning to action in February. Claims but could be a little vulnerable off top weight.

Form: 789-096

(13)

Ken's Sam's^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 61| BF| CD

11/2

Continues in fine form over further but remains one from seven over C&D and may find a couple stronger in this contest. Yard hold a 30% win and place strike rate with their handicappers at this venue in early April since 2015.

Form: 123723

Little Clarinet¹⁸⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 60| D

10/3

Distance winner who appears to need a change of luck finishing in the money in three of his last five starts for trainer-David Marnane. Worth a check in the market on interesting stable debut.

Form: 524250-

(9)

Lord Cooper³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: O J Orr⁽³⁾| T: R O'Brien| OR: 60| D

12/1

Modest 52-rated handicapper for trainer Marjorie Fife winning four of his 21 starts on the AW. Two years since visiting the winners enclosure and possibly best watched on first start for new connections.

Form: 60-6397

(11)

Blastofmagic^p,t⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: S Foley| T: A B Joyce| OR: 58| C

7/1

Boasts a win and a place from three starts at the track including a promising run last month finishing 2L adrift of Paved Paradise over 5f. Likely to improve stepping up in trip.

Form: 9423-52

(2)

Bellick^b¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: C D Maxwell⁽³⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 56| CD

6/1

Winner of one of his four starts over C&D, tasting victory off a 1lb lower mark in the earlier part of last month with a number of these behind. Not disgraced since and still rates a leading contender.

Form: 20-7417

(8)

My Good Brother^v²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 9-7| J: Robbie Colgan| T: T G McCourt| OR: 56| CD

33/1

Two from 14 over C&D and has been generally well held in a couple of starts over the combination since January including a 12½L defeat in the earlier part of last month. Others more appealing on the balance of recent sorties.

Form: 200-870

(7)

Glenmoore^t,v¹⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: R Coakley| T: F Birrane| OR: 55| CD

40/1

One from four over C&D but is currently on an eight race losing run including finishing well down the field when last seen in November. Slipping in the weights but still opposable here.

Form: 406000-

(6)

Your Pal Tal^v¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: D W O'Connor⁽⁵⁾| T: J F Levins| OR: 55| CD

12/1

Winner of three of his 16 starts over C&D hitting the frame on a further couple of occasions. In good form over the combination in a couple of encouraging runs last month and rates a leading contender.

Form: 7-22543

(12)

Mercury^b,t¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Rory Cleary| T: A B Joyce| OR: 53| BF| D

33/1

60-rated handicapper for Kevin Ryan a couple of years ago. Finished a remote second to Billyfairplay over C&D in December. Generally well held since and not in the form to warrant consideration.

Form: 052-560

(10)

Iseebreeze²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁷⁾| T: A Mulholland| OR: 52| C

15/2

Winner of a 7f handicap here last month off a 3lb lower mark beating Kens Sams ½L. Yard hold a 33% win and place strike rate with their handicappers at this venue in early April since 2015.

Form: 788-721

(14)

Ancient Astronaut^h³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Ben Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: K Thornton| OR: 47| D

50/1

Last of 14 beaten 8½L on his penultimate start over C&D in November. Eighth of 12 behind Seaforth on return to action at Wolverhampton over 7f last month and hard to place any faith in.

Form: 51400-8

(3)

Red All Star^b,t²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 8-10| J: Colin Keane| T: G Keane| OR: 45| CD

20/1

One from 16 over C&D hitting the frame on a further six occasions. Appears to have lost his way since winning a handicap in November of a similar mark. Will need a few of these to falter.

Form: 5100-09

(5)

Tynamite⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: M A Gallagher| T: D Marnane| OR: 45| C

6/1

Just the sole win from 11 visits to this venue but has been running well in defeat in three starts here since the turn of the year. Repeat of that form should see him in the hunt for place money once again.

Form: 400-555

Forecasts

Little Clarinet (10/3), Ken's Sam's (11/2), Tynamite (6/1), Bellick (6/1), Caesar's Comet (7/1), Blastofmagic (7/1), Iseebreeze (15/2), Your Pal Tal (12/1), Lord Cooper (12/1), Ingelara (14/1), Dollar Value (14/1), Three Majors (16/1), Red All Star (20/1), My Good Brother (33/1), Mercury (33/1), Glenmoore (40/1), Ancient Astronaut (50/1)

The Anthony Mulholland-trained ISEEBREEZE can confirm the placings with Ken's Sam's following a ½L win over 7f last month off a 3lb lower mark. The Frozen Power filly still looks on a decent mark and can finish ahead of potential improvers Little Clarinet, on stable debut, Blastofmagic and three-time winner over C&D, Your Pal Tal.
