33/1

C&D winner. 5/2, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Dundalk (7f) 70 days ago. Doesn't appear to be as good on turf, so this is a big ask.

12/1

C&D winner. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (11/4) at Haydock (7f, heavy) 13 days ago, bit in hand. Right at the top of his game and demands respect again.

15/2

Tongue strap on for 1st time, below form eleventh of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 8/1) 53 days ago. Trainer going well. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Should strip fitter for return.

20/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 8 in handicap (5/2) at Gowran (7f, soft) 16 days ago. Stable having good spell. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 2707-57

11/1

4/1, career best when winning 12-runner minor event at Dundalk (8f), easily. Off 140 days. Seems better on AW than turf.

C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Last of 16 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 66/1) 20 days ago, very slowly away. Hard to fancy.

4/1

Failed to justify support when sixteenth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy, 6/1) 53 days ago. Not one to write off.

Volatile Analyst¹¹

40/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 18/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, soft) 11 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Janoobi (11/5), Tosen Wish (4/1), Stag Night (7/1), Rahmi (15/2), Cheers Again (11/1), Earls (12/1), Scholarship (14/1), Apache Outlaw (16/1), Hurricane Ivor (16/1), Tango Flare (18/1), Kings Time (20/1), All Lies Ahead (20/1), Torivega (20/1), Heavenly Power (20/1), Current Option (28/1), Hightimeyouwon (33/1), Volatile Analyst (40/1), Physique (66/1), Tawaazon (150/1)

JANOOBI is still lightly raced for his age and, having returned from a lengthy absence to score emphatically at Naas in March, he's capable of defying a rise. Stag Night and Earls both arrive in top form and should give the selection plenty to think about.
