13/2

5/1, creditable third of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 21 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Unexposed for this stable and step back up in trip could suit.

12/1

One win from 3 runs last year. Latest win at Roscommon in August. Below form seventh of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 4/1), doing too much too soon. Off 105 days. Worth considering.

3/1

Creditable second of 14 in handicap (15/2) at this course (7f) 18 days ago, never nearer. Has a better draw this time, so claims if she can back up latest effort.

14/1

13/2, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 30 days ago. Back down in trip. Too well handicapped to completely dismiss.

25/1

3-time C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2018. Fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 39 days ago. Might come on for that run, so not a forlorn hope from a basement mark.

33/1

Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 39 days ago, very slowly away. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Hard to fancy.

8/1

Forecasts

Sister Lola (3/1), Neyland (7/2), Burning Lake (6/1), Lady Andaz (13/2), Maccliff (8/1), Ms Thompson (8/1), Overtake (17/2), Miracles In May (11/1), Ecoeye (12/1), Rita Levi (14/1), King Lenox (14/1), Poetic Choice (25/1), Airlift (25/1), Roman Warrior (33/1), Scream (40/1), Cross Step (40/1), Tagg's Island (125/1)

SISTER LOLA did well to finish second from a wide draw at this course last time and was nearest at the finish so, from stall 6 over a longer trip, a chance is taken on her to go one better in an open race. Lady Andaz is an obvious danger after a couple of creditable thirds, while Neyland could get involved if stall 15 doesn't scupper her.
