Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: C Byrnes| OR: 65| BF| D

9/4

Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, didn't need to be at best when winning 8-runner selling hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, good to soft, 1/3) 11 days ago, easily. Visor on 1st time.

Form: 83-7537

Innamorare^t¹¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Robert Whearty⁽⁴⁾| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 58| C

25/1

Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2019. 14/1, below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good). Off 113 days. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap back on and she's been afforded a chance by the assessor.

11/4

25/1, good seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (21f, good) 14 days ago, notably travelling well. Not out of things from this sort of mark back on the level.

Lariat^v¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Adam Caffrey⁽⁴⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 52| BF

12/1

Two wins from 47 Flat runs. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (11/4) 14 days ago. Visor back on. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 243938

Cliffs Of Malta¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Kyanna Van Buuren⁽⁷⁾| T: Barry J Fitzgerald| OR: 51

8/1

First run since leaving Anthony Mullins when respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 14 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form.

Form: 5655-05

Rockview Roman²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: J C McConnell| OR: 49| C

9/2

Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2019. 7/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable third of 18 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 25 days ago, headway over 1f out and keeping on. Should go well again.

Form: 806443

(5)

Lucky Number^t⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Nathan Crosse| T: O McKiernan| OR: 47

7/1

One win from 21 Flat runs. Creditable sixth of 13 in handicap (8/1) at this C&D 7 days ago, denied a run over 1f out and running on. Certainly not out of things from his much reduced mark.

Form: 249066

Carslake⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Jessica O'Gorman⁽⁴⁾| T: Aengus King| OR: 47

50/1

80/1, seventh of 13 in handicap at this course (2m) 9 days ago, never a threat. Back down in trip now and others make greater appeal.

Form: 000007

Little Trigger¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: C Horgan⁽⁴⁾| T: P F McEnery| OR: 47

50/1

Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 25/1, seventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, merely closing up late.

Forecasts

Wajaaha (9/4), Ellaat (11/4), Rockview Roman (9/2), Princess Wannabe (6/1), Lucky Number (7/1), Cliffs Of Malta (8/1), Lariat (12/1), Innamorare (25/1), Eagle Terrace (25/1), Sheila (33/1), Carslake (50/1), Little Trigger (50/1)

WAJAAHA had largely run with credit in this sphere prior to resuming winning ways over hurdles at Plumpton 11 days ago and he could be the answer returned to the Flat in a first-time visor. Cliffs of Malta ran creditably and should come on for her C&D return/yard debut effort 14 days ago and is feared, along with Rockview Roman and Princess Wannabe.
