Runner-up in big field maiden at Naas (6f, good to yielding; 33-1) on debut in the spring, hasn't built on that effort in two further outings since, needs to bounce back.

Gelding by Born To Sea out of a Selkirk mare. Cost €26,000 as a yearling, not completely without promise at Navan in March over this sort of trip on debut, but will need to improve plenty.

Best effort from three to date came in 1m2f Cork maiden in April, finishing close-up third in 17-runner field. Didn't excel since dropped under the mile and perhaps wants further than this.

Well held on debut at Naas in October as trainer's maiden Flat runner (now for 0-8) and has plenty improvement to find, despite this step up in distance being a potential plus.

Gelding by Frozen Power out of a Bushranger mare. Dam unraced half-sister to 5f/6f AW two-year-old winner Hardy Blue. Looked one pace on debut at the Curragh over 6f last month. Others preferred.

Went close in a 1m Navan maiden on seasonal bow/second start and since run rock-solid fourth in Listed 7f heat around here. Needs to be considered back down in this company.

Helmet colt twice changed hands for big money, hasn't lived to price tag in four starts, latterly when market has sided in his favour. Needs to improve back over this trip.
By Toronado, outran SP of 33-1 on debut when third of 17 in Navan maiden over this trip and interesting to see if that is built on now, will have claims to be involved if it is.

24,000 gns two-year-old, Battle of Marengo gelding. Half-brother to 1m6f winner Mutiska and 1m3f-2m½f winner Blue Cossack. May need this first run.

No sign of real promise in three starts to far from 7½f-1m2f and hard to make a case for. Likely one for handicaps.

Vocalised filly is a half-sister to 7f winner Fountain and 1m-1m2f winner Latchet. Dam juvenile 6f/7f winner; betting should reveal more.

Clodovil filly hasn't shown enough in two starst over 1m2f at Fairyhouse and Cork to command interest in this field.

Paco Boy filly, cost 1,800 gns as a foal and £13,000 as a yearling. Dam a 7f AW winner and half-sister to two more winners. Others rate as more likely contenders.

Forecasts

Piano Solo (8/11), Mudlahhim (11/4), Pocotaligo (7/2), Kattani (6/1), Anthonysoprano (16/1), Mother Vincent (20/1), Endless Summer (20/1), Prisoner's Dilemma (25/1), Postcode Envy (25/1), Newgirlintown (25/1), Ramanujan (33/1), Morph (50/1), Olaf's Boy (100/1), Takarengo (100/1), Swiss Army Officer (100/1)

Verdict

Piano Solo ran with great credit in Listed company last time out and could go very close in this company but MUDLAHHIM could begin a big couple of days for Kevin Prendergast with a win. He found only 2,000 Guineas winner Magna Grecia too good when last spotted in the autumn and should have decent claims on reappearance. Kattani is another with form already in the ledger, while the debutantes may be led by other Mother Vincent.
