Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Ben Coen| T: D Commins| OR: 79| C

2/1

Fairly useful gelding. Career best when winning 11-runner nursery at this course (6f, 17/2) 58 days ago, finding extra. Likely to put up another bold bid from the front.

Tammany Hall^t⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: W J Lee| T: C O'Brien| OR: 79| D

Fairly useful colt. Winner at Navan in September. Bit below form fifth of 13 in nursery (12/1) at this C&D, barely adequate test. Chance if on his game, though 6f suits ideally.

Drish Venture (2/1), Harry's Hill (2/1), Tammany Hall (4/1), Zen Silence (13/2), Falsaron (11/1), Niamh Elizabeth (50/1)

DRISH VENTURE is going the right way and, having made all in a C&D nursery a couple of months ago, he could follow up with another step forward. Zen Silence appeals as the type to benefit from first-time headgear, so he's another one to consider, while Tammany Hall could get involved if he picks up soon enough over a trip short of his optimum.
