Banjo²⁹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Ross Coakley| T: D Cullen

100/1

Struggling 102-rated handicap hurdler, last seen in September and return to make GB/Irish Flat debut. Hard to fancy until the Stowaway gelding shows a hint of ability in his races.

Form: 5-

Bocas Del Toro³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Robbie Colgan| T: J J Murphy

33/1

Toronado gelding. Half-brother to a winner who won over sprinting trips. No impression from 2f on debut at Gowran Park last month. Uphill task in this company.

Form: 8

Clonbrien²⁰⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: E J McNamara| T: P F O'Donnell

150/1

Flat-bred gelding out of an unraced mare, and from a yard without a winner recently. Last of 12 beaten 138L in a Leopardstown bumper when last seen in December. Best watched on Flat debut.

Globe Theatre^t1²⁶⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 75

6/1

Failed the make the grade in seven starts for trainer Aidan O'Brien. Last seen running well in defeat on the AW at Dundalk in October. One to note in the betting on stable debut.

Longbourn^t³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: M A Gallagher| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 70

18/1

Had been running well in a number of maiden starts between November/January before disappointing on return to action at Fairyhouse last month. Can be forgiven that run and one for the shortlist here.

Form: 4033-28

Roundel^t1¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: James J Doyle| T: D Hogan| OR: 74

10/1

Not disgraced in three starts so far including earlier this month at Naas finishing seventh of the 18-runners. Capable of a bold bid.

Form: 057

Rubys Jazz^t³⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Killian Leonard| T: P Cluskey

200/1

Four-race maiden yet to offer any signs of encouragement over a variety of trips. Makes first start for new connections but still little to be positive about.

Form: 0000-

The Jam Man¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: M A Enright| T: R McNally| OR: 123

80/1

Rattled off a four-timer over fences and hurdles last year, improving 30lb in the process. Well down the field in a couple of starts on the Flat since racing returned last month.

Form: 30-00

(9)

Yenillik²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 73

5/1

Inconsistent gelding sending out a number of mixed messages out including in his starts at Gowran Park and the Curragh since last month. Never the easiest to catch right.

Form: 2460-20

(17)

Assam¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Paddy Harnett⁽⁷⁾| T: M P Fitzgerald

150/1

Daughter of Dansili. Not seen on track for over three years before returning to action over 1m at Cork earlier this month finishing nearer last than first in the 18-runner contest.

Form: 66/0

(5)

Beauty Of Deira¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Ronan Whelan| T: R O'Brien| OR: 72

12/1

Another filly in the field sending out a number of mixed messages out in her starts in the last 12 months. Third of 11 on first start since leaving the Hugo Palmer yard at Roscommon earlier this month.

Form: 2250-3

(7)

Midnight Sunshine²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld

9/4

Three-race maiden, possibly needed the run on return to action last month and expected to improve on his position finishing fourth of 13 at Roscommon.

Form: 42-4

(4)

Nan Yehi^p1³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 72

13/8

Six-race maiden but is consistent and has shown more ability than most in the field. Pleasing effort on return to action at Gowran Park last month and very much in the mix here.

Form: 44522-3

(6)

Van Wert

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: C P Hoban| T: S Nolan

125/1

Daughter of Helmet out of a Teofilo mare. Closely related to Yes Mr President, winner over 2m. Dam won over 1m5f. Best watched on debut.

GLOBE THEATRE can continue the good run of form enjoyed by the yard. Making his debut for the Joseph O'Brien stable, the four-year-old can get off the mark on his sixth career start on the Flat at the expense of his nearest rival, expected to be Midnight Sunshine for trainer Dermot Weld. The Denis Hogan-trained Roundel would not surprise with an improved performance here, along with the inconsistent Yenillik for trainer Willie McCreery. Nan Yehi, formerly with the Kevin Prendergast yard could ruffle a few feathers on stable debut for Jessica Harrington.
