14/1

Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Listowel (1m, good) 15 days ago, making all. Higher mark to contend with back on AW but definite claims in present groove.

Baronial Pride¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle⁽³⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 72

8/1

Winless since debut victory at Hamilton (6f, soft) in 2018. Fairly low-key efforts in 2 starts 11 weeks apart for new yard this summer but mark is easing and one to note if market vibes are positive.

Form: 67-4877

Rocky Dreams¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Daniel King⁽¹⁰⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 72| C| D

7/1

Course winner. 8/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form seventh of 15 in handicap at Cork (6f, soft) 10 days ago. Return to an artificial surface may help now.

Form: 800757

Fly Girl^p⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Luke McAteer⁽⁵⁾| T: J McAuley| OR: 73| D

12/1

Bounced back to best on yard debut when winning 15-runner handicap at Bellewstown (7.7f, good to soft) 8 days ago. 8 lb higher now but likely to go well again in this sort of form.

Form: 597251

Got The Moves^h¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Billy Lee| T: A Oliver| OR: 73| D

15/2

Winner at Fairyhouse in September. 15/2, below form eleventh of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good) 13 days ago. Still, remains low-mileage on AW and not one to write off.

Form: 504510

Trading Point^p1⁸⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Donagh O'Connor| T: J C McConnell| OR: 71| C

20/1

Course winner. 50/1, last of 14 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good) 87 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Adrian McGuinness. Cheekpieces on for 1st time but he's tough to assess at present.

Form: 46-0000

Zahee^h,t⁶⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Gary Carroll| T: J C McConnell| OR: 71| C

22/1

Unreliable type. Winner here (1m) in July. 28/1, last of 14 in handicap at Galway (7f, good to firm) 68 days ago and he's another needing to bounce back now.

Form: 303310

12/1

C&D winner in September. 17/2, below form eighth of 13 in handicap at this course (6f) 14 days ago, typically travelling well but unable to land a blow. Not ruled out from revised mark. Reserve 1.

RAMON DI LORIA is less exposed than most he meets here and ran right up to his best when runner-up in a C&D handicap in July. He gets the nod to come out on top returning from a short break. Sheila, Fly Girl and Alex D head up the dangers, whilst Baronial Pride is also one to keep an eye on.
