Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Hugh Horgan⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 105| BF| CD

85/40

Smart gelding. C&D winner. 5/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at this C&D 35 days ago, keeping on after missing break. Should give another good account.

Form: 272433-

Pretreville⁹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 108

12/1

Smart performer in France but not at that level in 2 runs for new yard in October. Break needs to have done him some good. AW winner in France.

Form: 9/26700-

Thunder Moon⁹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 113| D

4/5

Group 1 winner at 2. Another fine effort at the highest level when close second in Prix Jean Prat at Deauville in July. Not at best final 3 starts but he should be hard to beat with sights lowered.

Form: 072090-

Sister Lola^t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle⁽³⁾| T: J McAuley| OR: 84| CD

25/1

Fairly useful 3-time C&D winner but has a bit to find on these terms.

Form: 32156-0

Forecasts

Thunder Moon (4/5), San Andreas (85/40), Meishar (8/1), Pretreville (12/1), Sister Lola (25/1)

THUNDER MOON has done the vast majority of his racing at Group 1 level so this is a big drop in grade and he should have too much class for this oppostion. His stablemate San Andreas can follow him home.
