Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Killian Leonard| T: Edward P Mitchell| OR: 47

100/1

More miss than hit on Flat last term and well held all 3 starts over hurdles since. Rates best watched returning to the level following 111 day break.

Form: 80396-0

Enquire Within^t³⁷⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: D E Sheehy⁽³⁾| T: F G Hand| OR: 47

28/1

Twenty first of 22 in handicap at Navan (10f, good, 33/1), not ideally placed. Off 12 months. First run for yard after leaving Desmond McDonogh. Tongue strap back on and the betting may prove the best guide here.

Form: 205/090-

Miss Upbeat^p,t¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽⁵⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 47

4/1

Good fourth of 17 in handicap at Tipperary (12.5f, good, 17/2) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Merits consideration.

Out On Friday²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: S D Bowen⁽⁷⁾| T: P Byrne| OR: 47

11/1

20/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Sligo (10.4f, good to soft) 24 days ago, headed 2f out and soon beaten. Needs to show more before becoming of interest again.

Form: 059-008

(11)

Romann^v²³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Colin Keane| T: J F Levins| OR: 47

7/1

Visored for 1st time, sixth of 15 in handicap (25/1) at Cork (10.1f, good) 23 days ago, keeping on to be nearest at the finish. Booking of Keane catches the eye if headgear has desired effect once more.

Form: 41/0-006

(14)

On The Money¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Rory Cleary| T: J S Bolger| OR: 61

13/2

Bit below form tenth of 16 in handicap (25/1) at Roscommon (12f, good to soft) 18 days ago, no extra from 2f out. Yet to get anywhere near her juvenile form in 2 starts this term but the assessor continues to relinquish his grip at least.

Form: 5670-00

Not Just Any Eagle (11/4), Miss Upbeat (4/1), Celtic Revival (11/2), On The Money (13/2), Romann (7/1), Out On Friday (11/1), Scalor (12/1), Winterscape (14/1), Virtual Hug (18/1), Enquire Within (28/1), Chutzpal (33/1), King Of The Kippax (33/1), Hot Lady (50/1), Bobbys Angel (80/1), Easky Maid (100/1)

MISS UPBEAT is less exposed than most and took a small step forward when fourth in a big field Tipperary handicap on her latest start 10 days ago. She could well be up to building on that equipped with first-time cheekpieces. Scalor, back from a stint chasing, and Celtic Revival head up the dangers.
