Useful chaser. 2 wins from 3 runs this season. 19 lengths fourth of 7 to Benruben in Gr 3 chase at Roscommon (16.6f, good, 15/2) 16 days ago, not knocked about once chance had gone.

7/2
Useful chaser. Best effort yet when very good ½-length second of 7 to Benruben in Gr 3 chase at Roscommon (16.6f, good) 16 days ago. May do better still and leading claims.

Fairly useful hurdler who made her second chase start a winning one in 5-runner novice at Listowel (20f, soft) 21 days ago, though was fortunate to do so.

Useful hurdler who cruised clear to win 12-runner novice chase at Kilbeggan (19.9f, good to soft) 33 days ago, despite some sloppy jumping. May yet do better.

Created a good impression when winning 7-runner novice chase at Sligo (17.8f, good) 30 days ago, soon clear. Sure to progress.

Forecasts

A Wave Of The Sea (15/8), Popong (5/2), Razoul (7/2), Zarkareva (5/1), Polished Steel (12/1), Dakota Moirette (12/1)

Verdict

RAZOUL ran his best race over fences when ½-length second of 7 in a well-run Grade 3 at Roscommon last month, and a reproduction of that form may be good enough to see him return to winning ways here. A Wave Of The Sea and Zarkareva are likely to offer stern resistance, though.

  1. RAZOUL (IRE)
  2. A WAVE OF THE SEA (IRE)
  3. ZARKAREVA (FR)
