Curraheen Princess¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Tom Kiely Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: N Stokes| OR: 85| D

15/2

Model of consistency last term, landing trio of 5f handicaps. Feasible to think first run for 7 months was needed at Navan (5f) 17 days ago and expected to be closer to form here.

Form: 22123-0

(10)

Only Spoofing¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-5| J: C Ngcobo⁽³⁾| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 85| D

20/1

66/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Navan (5f, soft) 17 days ago, shaken up over 2f out and weakening. Can only be watched at present.

Form: 00-0890

(11)

Harry's Hill²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: S T McCullagh⁽³⁾| T: M Hassett| OR: 80| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Career best when winning 19-runner handicap (15/2) at Naas (5f, good) 24 days ago by 1½ lengths from Lokada, keeping on well. Career-high mark to defy now but he should give another good account.

Form: 113-661

(3)

Dun Na Sead¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: O McSweeney⁽⁵⁾| T: K P Cotter| OR: 78| D

8/1

Latest win at Dundalk in February. Below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Navan (5f, soft, 13/2) 17 days ago.

Form: 915278

(4)

Hallowed Time^b¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Declan McDonogh| T: Eoghan O'Neill| OR: 77| D

40/1

Fourteenth of 16 in handicap (20/1) at Navan (5f, soft) 17 days ago, travelling well before fading final 1f. That was his first start for 8 months and entitled to be sharper now with blinkers refitted.

Form: 31009-0

(14)

Lokada²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 74| BF| D

3/1

Latest win at Dundalk in November. 6/1, good 1½ lengths second of 19 to Harry's Hill in handicap at Naas (5f, good) 24 days ago, keeping on. 2 lb higher now but she remains less exposed than most and worth a second look.

Form: 87115-2

(9)

Senor Carrots^p¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: W J Lee| T: A Oliver| OR: 73| D

25/1

Winner at Dundalk in April. Visored for 1st time, below form tenth of 16 in handicap at Navan (5f, soft, 40/1) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 59-0100

(1)

Cash Or Crypto²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Ronan Whelan| T: D Marnane| OR: 80

13/2

Lightly-raced winner. 25/1, very good second of 10 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good) 24 days ago, challenging final 1f and keeping on. May have more to offer on the back of just 5 career starts if he can build on that.

Form: 1609-2

(6)

Collective Power⁴⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Ben Coen| T: E Lynam| OR: 72| D

10/1

4/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Dundalk (6f) 49 days ago, always holding on. Enters calculations.

Form: 724221

(13)

Excesso Velocidad^t¹⁰²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 79

33/1

Fair form when landing a Dundalk maiden (6f) on debut in November but could only run to a similar level both starts thereafter, her opening mark looking on the high side when eighth of 10 back at that venue in February. More needed on turf debut.

Form: 14-8

(7)

Shoebox King²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: James J Doyle| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 67| D

17/2

15/2, below form 4½ lengths tenth of 19 to Harry's Hill in handicap at Naas (5f, good) 24 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form.

Form: 15-0940

(5)

Iur Cinn Tra^t²²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: P Downey| OR: 66| D

80/1

10/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (5f), merely closing up late. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving David O'Meara.

Form: 255456-

(8)

Mogwli²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Megan Telford-Kelly⁽¹⁰⁾| T: W McCreery| OR: 66

16/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Creditable eighth of 24 in handicap (8/1) at the Curragh (6f, soft) 29 days ago. Trainer going well. Should continue to give a good account.

Form: 37-4548

(15)

Gabriella's Spirit^t1²³²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: S Foley| T: K J Condon| OR: 65| D

10/1

12/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Eric Alston. Tongue strap on 1st time and interesting what the market makes of her.

Form: 827719-

(2)

Realtin Fantasy²²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-7| J: S D Bowen⁽⁷⁾| T: W P Browne| OR: 56| CD

33/1

Belatedly shed maiden tag in a C&D maiden 12 months ago but merely underlined inconsistency on 2 of her 3 starts thereafter. Overall record suggests she's one to take on for win purposes back from 7 months off.

Form: 6/51029-

Forecasts

Lokada (3/1), Harry's Hill (13/2), Cash Or Crypto (13/2), Curraheen Princess (15/2), Dun Na Sead (8/1), Shoebox King (17/2), Gabriella's Spirit (10/1), Collective Power (10/1), Mogwli (16/1), Only Spoofing (20/1), Senor Carrots (25/1), Realtin Fantasy (33/1), Excesso Velocidad (33/1), Hallowed Time (40/1), Iur Cinn Tra (80/1)

Plenty arrive with claims including LOKADA who ran well on the back of 5 months off when second behind Harry's Hill at Naas earlier this month and, now meeting that rival on these much more favourable terms, she could be the answer. The likeable Curraheen Princess, Dundalk-scorer Collective Power and low-mileage Cash Or Crypto head up the dangers.
