8/1

Fourteen wins from 45 Flat runs. Latest win at Dundalk in February. Fifth of 6 in handicap (10/1) at Chester (5.1f, heavy) 36 days ago, possibly amiss. Hard to fancy on the back of that.

16/5

Creditable 2½ lengths second of 17 to Verhoyen in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft, 25/1) 21 days ago. Might well go one better in this less-competitive affair.

12/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Dundalk in December. Seventh of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 16/1) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 16-5607

Tai Sing Yeh^b,t¹⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 8-10| J: Mikey Sheehy| T: J McAuley| OR: 73| D

12/1

Latest win at Dundalk in March. Creditable third of 12 in claimer at Tipperary (7.5f, good, 9/1) 17 days ago. Must improve but should give his running.

Forecasts

Ice Cold In Alex (16/5), Daamberdiplomat (16/5), Master Matt (10/3), Verhoyen (9/2), Harry's Bar (8/1), Tai Sing Yeh (12/1), Ampeson (12/1)

ICE COLD IN ALEX produced a big effort when second to Verhoyen and he's worth a chance to reverse form with that rival in this lesser contest. Master Matt is also worthy of interest.
