6/1

Veteran chaser who returned after 5 months off to land handicap chase (18/1) at Kilbeggan (21.8f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Up 3 lb now and he hasn't proved easiest to catch right, however.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Simon Torrens⁽⁷⁾| T: M Torrens| OR: 95

15/2

Clear Left^t²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: P D Kennedy| T: S K Ryder| OR: 92

16/1

Modest winner at 17f over hurdles but little show in three runs over fences. 80/1, sixth of 9 in novice chase at Galway (18.2f, soft) 29 days ago. Tongue strap back on but hard to enthuse over.

Lightly-raced maiden chaser. In rear when falling five out in handicap chase (13/2) at Clonmel (23f, heavy) 178 days ago. Down in trip but easily opposed.

I'll Be That Lady⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: J J Slevin| T: B McMahon| OR: 88

28/1

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Sean Flanagan| T: D P Murphy| OR: 85

15/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, tenth of 14 in minor chase at Punchestown (25f, heavy). Off 6 months and hard to fancy.

10/1

Modest maiden hurdler/chaser who went backwards from reappearance when pulled up in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (25f) 43 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Maureen's Star (11/2), Garrai Phaidin (6/1), Port Rashid (6/1), Gold Sun (7/1), Back To Bataan (15/2), Ballinasilla (15/2), Court Adjourned (8/1), Blaze A Trail (10/1), Shotgun Sally (10/1), Thats Mypresenting (10/1), Cadawill (14/1), Clear Left (16/1), Makeyourcall (16/1), I'll Be That Lady (28/1)

Lots with question marks against them so the reliable MAUREEN'S STAR looks a very solid contender to add to his Kilbeggan win earlier in the summer. Back To Bataan is still without a win but arrives in good form so he must enter calculations, while Thats Mypresenting is another with solid place claims.
