16/1

Good fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) 30 days ago. Had been disappointing on Flat when last seen but not ruled out on recent evidence.

7/2

18/1, very good second of 14 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago, having benefit of enterprising ride. Now his task is to back that up.

Ballykelly Venture⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: K J Manning| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 56

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 9 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Remains low mileage and entitled to be sharper here.

Form: 45-68

22/1

Ragtime Red^t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: C J McGovern⁽³⁾| T: A McCann| OR: 53| CD

10/1

C&D winner. Shaped as if needing the run when sixth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at this course (12f) 16 days ago. Has fallen to a workable mark and one to consider with that under his belt.

Launch Her^t³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: T P Madden| T: P McCreery| OR: 52

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Cork (10f, soft, 14/1) 31 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 08075

Annie Ok¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 45

14/1

Ran one of better races when seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (12f, 12/1) 16 days ago. However, that still only poor form and more required to play a lead role here.

Form: 8/90797

Early Strike⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Ms N A Kane⁽⁷⁾| T: D Murphy| OR: 45

50/1

Unreliable sort. Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Tenth of 14 in handicap (28/1) at this C&D 9 days ago, finding little. Others more persuasive.

Form: 92-7400

Queen Amidala^b⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Gary Carroll| T: J G Murphy| OR: 59

17/2

5/1, bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. That was her first start for 12 weeks and she may well strip fitter for that. Blinkers back on. Reserve 1.

Forecasts

King Lenox (7/2), Blackstone Cliff (4/1), Han Solo (4/1), Chateau Musar (8/1), Queen Amidala (17/2), Persian Lion (10/1), Ragtime Red (10/1), Annie Ok (14/1), Futurum Regem (16/1), Here's Hoping (16/1), Tio Esteban (18/1), Ballykelly Venture (20/1), No Trouble (22/1), Knock Flyer (25/1), Launch Her (28/1), Coolbawn Magic (33/1), Early Strike (50/1)

A wide-open finale with the narrow vote in favour of HAN SOLO. A winner at Cork in September, he wasn't disgraced over this sort of trip back at that venue 31 days ago and he again has the services of his good value claimer. Ragtime Red, King Lenox and Blackstone Cliff head up the dangers.
