6/1

Remains a maiden after 20 runs. 16/1, last of 9 in handicap hurdle here (24f, good) 26 days ago. Back chasing now with cheekpieces on but others more persuasive.

Court Adjourned⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: P J O'Hanlon⁽⁷⁾| T: P Stafford| OR: 76

20/1

One win from 32 runs. First run since leaving Dermot Anthony McLoughlin when well-held seventh of 11 to I'm Not Alone in handicap chase at Wexford (25.2f) 9 days ago. Has plenty to prove.

Form: 0P/075-7

Maureen's Star¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: B Browne⁽³⁾| T: L Lennon| OR: 74| BF

12/1

Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in June but only eighth of 11 in handicap chase at Wexford (18f, soft) 16 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and needs to bounce back.

Form: 6-16358

Mr Bolt^b,t⁵⁷

Age: 15| Weight: 10-7| J: Mr N McParlan⁽³⁾| T: S McParlan| OR: 69

16/1

Remains a maiden after 20 runs. 16/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Tipperary (20f, soft) 57 days ago so hard to warm to despite blinkers going back on.

Form: P4376-P

Age: 9| Weight: 10-6| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 68| C| D

Forecasts

I'm Not Alone (3/1), Ballinasilla (11/2), Cluan Dara (6/1), Unchago (6/1), Loch Luatha (15/2), Mary Fields (17/2), Maureen's Star (12/1), Mr Bolt (16/1), Capture The Drama (16/1), Court Adjourned (20/1), Shanklys Dawn (20/1), Humps And Bumps (22/1), Mash Potato (25/1), Daisy Chicks (25/1), Mlily (66/1)

CLUAN DARA is a long time without a win but figures on a good mark so is given the vote on the back of his excellent recent second at Tramore. I'm Not Alone rates the obvious threat on the back of her career-best Wexford win with Loch Luatha appealing as a solid place prospect.
