Scorpion Black^v²³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: D A McCormack⁽⁵⁾| T: D K Weld| OR: 65| CD

8/1

Won for the second time in an 18 race career when landing the spoils in a 5k heavy ground handicap over C&D in October last term off a 3lb lower mark. Beaten since but not ruled out back at this venue.

Blankiedoodie^h,t²⁷³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Gary Carroll| T: J C McConnell| OR: 63| C

14/1

Form has tailed off somewhat following victories at Listowel and Bellewstown in June/July last year off a 3lb lower mark. Others more appealing on the balance of his most recent starts in August/September.

Raffaello²¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: W McCreery| OR: 63| CD

11/2

Scored a quick double over C&D and Leopardstown in June at 1m but overall form since fell below par. Now back 1lb lower than last winning mark but worth a check in the market.

Form: 1000U6-

Annexation²⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Wayne Lordan| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 60

5/1

Eight-race maiden, without a success in six starts on turf last term for trainer Ed Dunlop. Hard to fancy on overall evidence and others hold sturdier claims as the gelding makes his stable debut.

Form: 433650-

(5)

Go West Young Lad¹⁷⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: W P Mullins| OR: 60

7/1

Has not threatened in his three appearances so far, including on his last start on turf in a Navan 1m5f maiden on yielding to soft ground in October last year. Interesting runner for leading NH trainer but others preferred.

Form: 880-

Dark Magic¹¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: D W O'Connor⁽³⁾| T: J F Levins| OR: 56| BF| D

6/1

Winner over this trip at Dundalk on the AW before Christmas beaten Red Avenger a head. Beaten but running with credit in three starts at the track since. Will need to improve on overall turf form.

Form: 321-644

(3)

Rudisha^p²²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: James J Doyle| T: D Hogan| OR: 55

14/1

Has failed to build on a career best effort on heavy ground in a handicap over C&D in October with a couple of dismal efforts over a similar trip. Plenty to find in this company.

Form: 090200-

Pegasus Bridge⁸³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Colin Keane| T: L Lennon| OR: 48| D

20/1

Off the mark at the 15th attempt for connections when landing a 7f handicap on the AW at Dundalk in February off a 3lb lower mark. Well held since and hard to make a case for with the gelding yet to hit the frame in seven turf starts.

Form: 09-0106

(17)

Theoneyouare^e/s,h²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Leigh Roche| T: Niall Egan| OR: 47

25/1

Short of room when running well in defeat on return to action in a Leopardstown 1m handicap on Tuesday. Vast amount of improvement needed from the mare who is yet to hit the frame in seven starts on turf.

Form: 07-9250

(7)

Accladora⁹⁶⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: C D Maxwell⁽³⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 46

33/1

Lightly raced mare in the last three years. Daughter of Acclamation has a sole victory to her name from 10 starts on turf. Hard to fancy on first start in a while.

Form: 013630/

(11)

All The Mollies^h1¹⁸¹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Killian Leonard| T: Mrs D A Love| OR: 45| D

16/1

Below-par form in a number of starts over hurdles in October/November before a dismal effort on the AW at Dundalk when last seen over 1m in December. Will need to improve on return to action.

Form: 0/44280-

(4)

Groovy Jazz⁴⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Rory Cleary| T: L Comer| OR: 45

22/1

Not many miles on the clock in the last two/three seasons. Has hit the frame on just the one occasion in 11 starts on turf. Still looking no nearer to a breakthrough success.

Form: 80/6978-

(1)

Sensual Scent²⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: A Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Murphy| OR: 45

11/1

Well held in six career starts to date, yet to hit the frame on any occasion. Hints of encouragement when last seen at Cork in September. Hard to fancy on overall evidence and others hold sturdier claims in this event.

Form: 060405-

(10)

Tynamite⁹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Declan McDonogh| T: D Marnane| OR: 45| D

9/2

Running with plenty of credit in a number of starts since the turn of the year on the AW at Dundalk, beaten no more than ½L in two starts in February/March. Claims if transferring form to turf.

Form: 28-2722

The David Marnane-trained, TYNAMITE has been recording a number of solid and consistent efforts on the AW at Dundalk between January and March. The six-year-old distance winner can get back to winning ways to register his first win on turf in 12 starts. Annexation makes his stable debut for trainer Henry De Bromhead here following a move from Ed Dunlop. The four-year-old can compete for minor honours with Dark Magic for trainer Johnny Levins and C&D winners, Raffaello and the Dermot Weld-trained Scorpion Black.
