Form: 514F6-3

Backintheroom³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: R Deegan| T: P Nolan| OR: 106

7/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Eighth of 9 in novice chase at Naas (20f, soft, 200/1) 35 days ago, considerately handled. May well do better now handicapping.

Form: 40U-468

Carrolls Cottage³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Brian Hayes| T: P Fenton| OR: 105

13/2

Unreliable individual. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. Bit below form fifth of 12 in handicap chase at Naas (20f, soft, 9/1) 35 days ago, racing lazily. On a decent mark if regaining his form but looks opposable again.

Form: 756P-35

Josh D'id²⁷²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Mark Walsh| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 104

7/2

Likely to have made frame when unseated rider 2 out in handicap chase at this course (17f, heavy) won by Misty Hollow. Off 9 months. Up in trip. Should have more to offer.

Form: 54609/U-

11/4

Good second of 15 in novice chase (7/1) at Tramore (21.4f, soft) 19 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut. Sets the benchmark.

Masterstonemason^p⁵⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-3| J: Gavin Brouder⁽⁵⁾| T: F Costello| OR: 84

66/1

Two wins from 41 NH runs. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 33/1, tenth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (15.9f, soft) 59 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back up in trip.

Form: 006P90

Lavinia Fontana^b1¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: C P McNamara| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 82

50/1

Below form seventh of 12 in handicap chase at Tramore (21.4f, soft) 19 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Very hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Wee Charlie (11/4), Josh D'id (7/2), Misty Hollow (9/2), Rolly Bowley Boy (11/2), Pour Pavore (6/1), Hardwired (6/1), Carrolls Cottage (13/2), Backintheroom (7/1), Teescomponentsyess (10/1), Lavinia Fontana (50/1), Masterstonemason (66/1)

WEE CHARLIE looks to have been handed a lenient opening mark on the back of an encouraging second in a Tramore novice last month and he's taken to make a winning handicap chase debut. Fellow handicap newcomers Backintheroom and Pour Pavore have been given considerate rides in their qualifying runs and better can be expected.
