12/1

Last of 14 in handicap (8/1) at this course (1m) 12 days ago, always behind and seemingly not 100%. More needed stepping back up in trip.

Free Royal⁵¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: J Cleary⁽⁷⁾| T: S Lavery| OR: 62

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Surpassed previous efforts when fifth of 11 in maiden (150/1) at Fairyhouse (10f) back in June 2020. However, subsequent absence a worry and betting likely best guide here.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Ben Coen| T: J Davison| OR: 57

11/1

King Lenox^p¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Rory Cleary| T: P W Flynn| OR: 51

10/1

Untrustworthy individual. 9/1, thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16f, soft) 10 days ago. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Dammit (15/8), Bora Bora (9/4), Dr Patrick (11/4), Summit Star (7/1), Draco Pulchrac (8/1), King Lenox (10/1), Massaman (11/1), Old Tom Higgins (12/1), Anjah (12/1), Free Royal (14/1), French Company (16/1), Cannoli (18/1), Basrah Breeze (18/1), Golden Sandbanks (20/1), Ben Alexander (25/1), Writewhenyouland (28/1), Camino Mission (80/1)

DAMMIT arrives a maiden on the back of 11 starts but twice went close from similar marks on turf this summer and having signalled a return to form when fifth over further here 3 weeks ago, he could be the way to go again equipped with cheekpieces. Handicap debutant Bora Bora, Cannoli and Draco Pulchrac are others fancied to feature.
