25/1

Now down to a mark 28lb lower than a rating of 89 at the start of last season. Has gone off the boil in a couple of efforts in October and is hard to fancy on polytrack and stable debut.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Paddy Harnett⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 60| CD

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Wayne Lordan| T: T J O'Mara| OR: 57| CD

12/1

Winner of one of his eight starts over C&D. Running with plenty of credit over the combination in a couple of starts since November. Could be dangerous racing 1lb lower than last winning mark.

Kinch^v1²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D W O'Connor⁽³⁾| T: J F Levins| OR: 57

5/1

Running well in defeat with plenty of credit at this venue over 1m and C&D last month. First-time visor could well spark more improvement.

Mulzamm^p⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: James J Doyle| T: D Hogan| OR: 55| C| D

12/1

Course winner that has also won over a similar trip. Ran well in defeat on most recent start over C&D last month. Capable of another bold effort as he approaches last winning mark.

Scarlet Seymour^p1⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: G M Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: L Comer| OR: 54

25/1

Yet to hit the frame in nine career starts including three runs at this track over 6f/1m. Hasn't looked a winner in waiting with first time cheekpieces unlikely to bring about the required amount of progression needed to land a blow here.

Form: 00/088-5

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: M A Gallagher| T: E P Harty| OR: 53| CD

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: A McCann| OR: 50| CD

33/1

Yet to show any spark in a number of starts at this venue over 7f/5f. Needs to step up on recent form and now races 10lb lower than last winning mark.

Iseebreeze²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: A Mulholland| OR: 48| CD

8/1

Well held in a number of starts on turf over the summer before an encouraging return to this surface finishing fifth of 14 beaten 6L last month. C&D winner not easily dismissed now back below last winning mark.

Tynamite²³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Declan McDonogh| T: D Marnane| OR: 47| CD

5/1

Not getting the rub of the green in a couple of recent starts at the track including over C&D last month. Liable to find one or two better handicapped sorts lurking.

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: N G McCullagh| T: L Breen| OR: 46| CD

28/1

Major Power (2/1), Tynamite (5/1), Kinch (5/1), Iseebreeze (8/1), Comhghairdeas (10/1), Ahundrednotout (10/1), Mulzamm (12/1), Amazing One (12/1), Paved Paradise (12/1), The Bittern Cry (12/1), Red Avenger (12/1), Lily's Prince (18/1), So Familiar (25/1), Scarlet Seymour (25/1), La Novia (28/1), Smart Stinger (33/1), Nightflight (33/1)

MAJOR POWER got off the mark at the 10th time of asking on his fifth visit to this track, his first over C&D last month. The five-year-old was headed inside the final furlong over the combination later in the month but can get back to winning ways for trainer Edward Lynam. Comhghairdeas was backed as if defeat was out of the question last month over C&D can go well on again back at this trip while Kinch in first-time visor and C&D winner Tynamite can compete for minor honours.
