4/1
Won a valuable handicap at The Curragh in May and despite some weaker efforts since is versatile regarding trip and going and this is a drop in grade.

5/2
Rare go at this shorter trip and normally found on the A/W but has some form on turf and stamina will come in handy at this distance.

8/1
1m6f winner at Gowran in the summer and has been kept busy over hurdles since. Strong stayer so chance this trip could be on the sharp side.

3/1
All wins over shorter and hasn't convinced that 1m2f on this ground is what he wants so others are preferred.

Age: 7|  Weight: 12-4| J: Aine Ryan| T: Peter Fahey| BF
4/1
138 rated 3m chaser now making Flat debut under rules and likely to find others a bit too quick for him at this trip.

4/1
Progressed well over 3m as a hurdler last season including creditable seventh in the Pertemps Final. Flat debut now and his Bumper win was gained over 2m4f.

Age: 5|  Weight: 12-1| J: Neil Durkan| T: W Durkan| OR:  69| C
14/1
Has spent her career running over 7f and 1m and has another absence to overcome. Plenty to find with the pick of these on official ratings.

Age: 7|  Weight: 12-0| J: Heather Heffernan| T: J Fahey| OR:  52
14/1
Yet to win in 16 runs on the Flat and seems on the downgrade judged by recent efforts. Others make more appeal.

Age: 3|  Weight: 11-13| J: Mary Tyner| T: J P O'Brien| OR:  63
12/1
Stamina to prove at this trip and hasn't shown much over hurdles since last on the Flat and official rating well below the best of these.

Age: 3|  Weight: 11-10| J: Niamh McNamara| T: Leonard Flynn
33/1
No sign of ability in trio of maidens from 7f to 2m and impossible to make a case for.

Age: 4|  Weight: 11-9| J: Triona Burbage| T: J P Fahey| OR:  45
16/1
Runner up off mark of 45 in Limerick handicap on penultimate run but found 1m6f stretching stamina on Wednesday and needs to take a major step forward.

Horse silk
Peace Approved14
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-9| J: Jerry Horan| T: Madeleine Tylicki| OR:  50
25/1
Poor maiden who has been well beaten all starts over variety of trips at big prices and readily passed over.

Forecasts

Dalileo (5/2), Tony The Gent (3/1), Aussie Valentine (4/1), Thermistocles (4/1), Timeforwest (4/1), Neverushacon (8/1), Vhagar (12/1), Jazz Ranger (14/1), Curly Girl (14/1), Indian Eye (16/1), Peace Approved (25/1), Jeyyaad (33/1), Extrasensory (33/1), Dandjira (33/1), Coral Blue (33/1)

Verdict

A Charity race that makes little appeal from a betting view and a chance that AUSSIE VALENTINE can give the weight away. Dalileo may provide the chief threat with Thermistocles best of the rest.
  1. Aussie Valentine
  2. Dalileo
  3. Thermistocles
