Mr Rango²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr L P Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 84

15/2

Fairly useful gelding who ran respectably after an 8-week break when third in a handicap at Ballinrobe in July. Not in anything like the same form at Killarney since, so bounced back called for.

Form: 13-3039

Minella Mate²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr J L Gleeson⁽⁵⁾| T: J Nallen| OR: 94

8/11

Fairly useful bumper winner who ran to a similar level when making a successful Flat debut at Galway in August and built on that when second in 5-runner minor event at Killarney since. Leading claims.

Form: 12

Carslake⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Ms E C Costello⁽⁷⁾| T: Aengus King| OR: 42

100/1

Just modest on Flat and disappointing of late over hurdles.

Form: 74-7658

Coeur Sublime^t¹⁴⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr A Jones⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead

7/2

Smart chaser who made a successful Flat debut at Navan in April 2018. Ran poorly on last 2 jumps starts but still a leading contender back in this sphere.

Form: 1/

Derby De Thaix²⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss H Heffernan⁽⁷⁾| T: James Andrew Fahey

100/1

Poor maiden over hurdles who could hardly have shown any less on sole Flat outing. Easily opposed after 16 months off.

Form: 0/0

Final Endeavour²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss M Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: H Rogers| OR: 64| D

33/1

Fair gelding who ran poorly after 10 months off at Bellewstown (17f, good, 50/1) 24 days ago.

Form: 007D0-0

Mister Fogpatches²¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-0| J: Ms C A Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Fahy

22/1

Useful handicap chaser making Flat debut. Needs considering.

Form:

Queen Of Seduction^p⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr H C Swan⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 75

4/1

Fairly useful filly. Winner at Roscommon in June. Did too much too soon at Galway (16.5f) on most recent outing, so it's easy to put a line through that run.

Form: 014820

Zebos Beanos¹⁵⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Alex Harvey⁽⁷⁾| T: D McNamara| OR: 53

50/1

Well held in a trio of maiden hurdles. Off 155 days. Modest maiden on the Flat, bit below form on last Flat outing.

Form: 889387-

Forecasts

Minella Mate (8/11), Coeur Sublime (7/2), Queen Of Seduction (4/1), Mr Rango (15/2), Mister Fogpatches (22/1), Final Endeavour (33/1), Zebos Beanos (50/1), Derby De Thaix (100/1), Carslake (100/1)

MINELLA MATE has made a promising start to his Flat career and is preferred to Coeur Sublime, who has a bit to prove having underperformed on his final 2 outings over jumps. Useful handicap chaser Mister Fogpatches is worthy of consideration, also.
