Star Of Cashel^p,t⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 10-9| J: Paddy Harnett⁽⁷⁾| T: J A Stack| OR: 84

7/1

Penny has appeared to have dropped for the No Nay Never colt, winning at Naas and Roscommon already this month. Now races 18lb higher than first victory earlier this month but one for any shortlist here.

Form: 987-311

Early Bright^t²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Sam Ewing⁽¹⁰⁾| T: G M Lyons| OR: 75| BF

20/1

£40,000 colt. Four-race maiden, not disgraced on first race as a three-year-old at Tipperary on return to action last month finishing fourth of 14 runners beaten 4¼L as the 5/2f. More to come.

Form: 640-4

Love Bracelet¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 75

9/2

Exposed enough and yet to really make a telling blow so far. Best effort for a while when sixth of 18 in 1m Curragh maiden at the end of last month.

Form: 6067-6

Yulong Voice^p¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 75| D

6/1

Will have disappointed connections so far in a couple of below-par efforts since racing resumed last month. Doesn't appear to be in the form required to play a part.

Form: 0144-89

(9)

Zahira Loredana^b1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: R Coakley| T: J M Oxx| OR: 74

25/1

Well held on a couple of starts at Naas and Leopardstown last month. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 4-77

(1)

Zoom Zoom Babe^t²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: S M Crosse⁽³⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 73| D

9/2

Winner on final start of last term in October and came back in good form to finish fourth of 15 runners at Leopardstown last month. Open to progress but needs more to trouble the market leaders.

Form: 3371-4

(10)

Madaket Mystery⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Gary Halpin| T: J Davison| OR: 72

15/2

Five-race maiden, career best effort on latest start at Naas earlier this month finishing 1¾L behind Star Of Cashel over 7f. Enters calculations.

Form: 333-52

(11)

The Truant^b1,t1⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Madden| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 70

25/1

Eight-race maiden who has failed to land any prize money in six starts on turf. First time blinkers unlikely to bring about the required amount of progression needed to land a blow here.

Form: 50-5367

(2)

Eglish²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: A McGuinness| OR: 69

14/1

Solid and consistent on the AW at Wolverhampton and Dundalk since the turn of the year, landing a hat-trick of wins over 6f/7f. Decent effort at Limerick on return to racing last month and one to note in the market.

Form: 2-11124

(5)

Gregory's Gift¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Shane Kelly⁽³⁾| T: S Fahey| OR: 67

66/1

Three-race maiden who has out run his odds on each occasion. Others more appealing on the balance of his run at Sligo earlier this month.

Form: 967

(13)

Runcible³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: M A Gallagher| T: Miss K Brown| OR: 65

50/1

Daughter of Ivawood out of a Tiger Hill mare. Doesn't appear to be the most talented of sorts and others hold stronger claims in this event.

Form: 750

(3)

Three Sevens²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: G M Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: T J O'Mara| OR: 63

33/1

Gelding by Elzaam out of a Whipper mare. Well held on his last couple of starts at Dundalk on the AW and last month on return to action at Tipperary. Makes little appeal in this company.

Form: 477

(7)

Cap D'Antibes¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Robbie Colgan| T: J J Murphy| OR: 62

13/2

10-race maiden, still looking for breakthrough success in seven starts on turf. Better effort on third run since racing returned, finishing 3L down on Hisnameis Mrdevitt at Limerick over 1m last month.

Form: 00-0707

(8)

Amelia Jane^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: W McCreery| OR: 56

10/1

Producing a couple of decent efforts since returning to the track last month, both runs coming at Limerick over 6½f/1m. Not far behind Hisnameis Mrdevitt on latest start and one to consider as post time approaches.

Form: 784-834

Zoom Zoom Babe (9/2), Love Bracelet (9/2), Yulong Voice (6/1), Cap D'Antibes (13/2), Star Of Cashel (7/1), Madaket Mystery (15/2), Amelia Jane (10/1), Funny Little Ways (12/1), Eglish (14/1), Early Bright (20/1), The Truant (25/1), Zahira Loredana (25/1), Three Sevens (33/1), Runcible (50/1), Gregory's Gift (66/1)

The Aidan O'Brien-trained LOVE BRACELET appears to be coming to hand at the right time and can strike on her second handicap start in this contest. The filly can build on a promising effort at the Curragh last month over 1m to get the better of the hat-trick seeking Star Of Cashel who is in the form of his life at the moment. The Willie McCreery-trained, daughter of Anjaal, Amelia Jane has return to action in good form with herself and appears more than capable of hitting the frame along with Madaket Mystery, 1¾L adrift of Star Of Cashel earlier this month. Early Bright for trainer Ger Lyons and the Ado McGuinness-trained Eglish should not be taken lightly.
