Cursory Exam¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-2| J: J M Sheridan⁽⁵⁾| T: G O'Leary| OR: 74

8/1

Respectable 3½ lengths sixth of 12 to Stop On Red in handicap at this course (7f, 11/2) 14 days ago. That was his first start for 3 months and he may well be sharper now.

Form: 56525-6

Aleen Cust^p¹³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 70

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden who caught the eye when fifth in a Leopardstown nursery (1m) in October. Well held on heavy ground thereafter but she's not one to write off back from a break.

Form: 00850-

Bondi Dreams¹⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Rory Cleary| T: P W Flynn| OR: 70

Devious Dreamer¹⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Luke McAteer⁽⁵⁾| T: J M Barrett| OR: 70

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in maiden at Gowran (1m) in October, merely passing beaten rivals. Gelded subsequently and sort yard does well with in handicaps.

Form: 606-

(11)

Red Contender⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: D M Redmond⁽⁵⁾| T: L Comer| OR: 69

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (7f) 49 days ago. Worth considering on recent exploits.

Form: 755-22

(12)

Rock Etoile^h⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Andrew Slattery⁽³⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 64

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 14 in maiden (16/1) at this C&D 63 days ago. Makes handicap debut and interesting if the market speaks in his favour now.

Form: 568-4

(13)

Ablah^v¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 63| C

13/2

Opened account over 6f here in November. 9/2, creditable 1¾ lengths third of 12 to Stop On Red in handicap at this course (7f) 14 days ago, nearest finish. Not ruled out.

Form: 2414-43

(14)

Putonthenews⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Sam Ewing⁽⁵⁾| T: J Nash| OR: 59

18/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Modest form when sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f, 10/1) 46 days ago. Booking of Ewing a plus but needs to improve again to feature.

Form: 0070-6

(8)

Chummie¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Lee| T: T M Walsh| OR: 58

12/1

25/1, creditable 1¾ lengths second of 12 to Stop On Red in handicap at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Looks competitive on form.

Form: 00820-2

(2)

Battle Angel^h1¹¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Colin Keane| T: E Mullins| OR: 57

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Best effort to date when sixth of 11 in a C&D nursery in November, weakening over 1f out. Needs to step up again to feature but booking of Colin Keane catches the eye.

Form: 4006-

(1)

Stop On Red¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Chris Hayes| T: J G Coogan| OR: 57| C

2/1

Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this course (7f, 7/2) 14 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Chummie, well on top finish. Should find return to 1m no problem and sound claims.

Form: 31-4251

(4)

King Wasp^h¹²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: James J Doyle| T: N Slevin| OR: 53

40/1

Sepoy gelding who added to patchy record when twelfth of 14 in a C&D nursery in November. Others make greater appeal returning from a break.

Form: 674030-

(10)

Benkogambit^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Wayne Lordan| T: P Martin| OR: 50

13/2

6/1, good 2 lengths fourth of 12 to Stop On Red in handicap at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Booking of Lordan a plus. Each-way claims.

Form: 060-444

(5)

Perilous^t1¹²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: A Leahy| OR: 48

80/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Below best when eighth of 14 in a C&D nursery in November, never better than midfield. Needs to step up to figure.

Form: 95048-

Stop On Red (2/1), Ablah (13/2), Benkogambit (13/2), Cursory Exam (8/1), Red Contender (9/1), Rock Etoile (12/1), Chummie (12/1), Devious Dreamer (14/1), Battle Angel (16/1), Putonthenews (18/1), Aleen Cust (20/1), King Wasp (40/1), Perilous (80/1), Bondi Dreams (150/1)

STOP ON RED continued his theme of gradual progression when doubling his career tally over 7f here 2 weeks ago, getting the better of re-opposing Chummie in clear-cut fashion. He can confirm that form back up at 1m. Red Contender and Aleen Cust are just 2 others worth a second look.
