40/1, last of 17 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (23f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Blinkers back on. Fair on the Flat, albeit bit below form on latest start in this sphere. Still, looks competitive on form.

Forecasts

Pride Of Pimlico (4/1), Miss Cunning (11/2), Helvic Princess (7/1), Akua (7/1), Sweet November (8/1), Freepark (9/1), Clifftop (12/1), Storm Elza (12/1), Fair Damsel (12/1), Anjah (16/1), New Moon Rising (22/1), Rockview Roman (25/1), Darkened (25/1), Inductive (28/1), Knock Flyer (33/1), Here's Hoping (33/1), Dixon Line (40/1)

Verdict

HELVIC PRINCESS was below par on her latest start in this sphere, but she's now 5 lb lower than when hitting the crossbar in a Cork handicap last spring and the drying ground is in her favour. Clifftop was successful over C&D last summer and he will be a threat if fit enough to do himself justice, while Darkened and Pride of Pimlico are others to consider.

  2. Clifftop12/1
  3. Darkened25/1
