11/2

Fairly useful gelding. Blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner claiming maiden at Roscommon (7.2f, good to soft) 4 days ago, always holding on. This rates tougher, however.

Form: 385-001

10/11

Lightly-raced course winner. 4/1, not seen to best effect when fifth of 10 in handicap at Naas (1m) 12 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip. Has best chance on form.

Form: 1051-5

Snapius^p1²²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Jake Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 84

7/2

Fairly useful colt. 50/1, twelfth of 16 in minor event at Naas (7f, soft) in October, short of room over 1f out but making no impression. Still, not discounted on return/down in grade.

Form: 034460-

Mr Globalist¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Chris Hayes| T: E & P Harty| OR: 65

8/1

Fair gelding. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Roscommon (12f, soft, 10/1) 18 days ago. More needed if he's to figure here.

Form: 8584-60

(6)

Sovereignty^h⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: C J MacRedmond⁽⁵⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 48

Modest gelding. 100/1, 6¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Brown Eagle in maidenclaimer at Roscommon (7.2f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Likely to come up short again.

Forecasts

Recurrent Dream (10/11), Snapius (7/2), Brown Eagle (11/2), Mr Globalist (8/1), Frank Columbo (17/2), Sovereignty (66/1)

RECURRENT DREAM wasn't seen to best effect on his return at Naas (1m) 12 days ago and, back in calmer waters, he's fancied to make a bold bid to resume winning ways upped in trip. Snapius can give the selection most to think about, ahead of Roscommon-scorer Brown Eagle.
