Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Ben Coen| T: R O'Brien

13/2

Farhh gelding. Dam ran twice, out of useful 2-y-o 5f winner Loch Jipp. Shaped promisingly first time up when third of 8 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, soft, 11/1) on debut 7 days ago, losing second near line. Type to do better again down in trip.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Luke McAteer| T: D Marnane| OR: 77| BF

13/2

Fairly useful gelding who ran best race when second in a Dundalk maiden (1m) in October. Disappointed back there a month later (refused to settle) but gelded ahead of return and he could yet get back on track.

Annie Edson Taylor²³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J A Heffernan| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 76| BF

13/8

Mayson filly who confirmed debut promise when again finding only one too good in 18-runner maiden at Navan (5.8f, soft, 13/8) in October. Respected on return to action.

Form: 32-

Lanzerac

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

No Nay Never filly. Closely related to winner up to 1m Aswan. Dam maiden (stayed 1¼m), closely related to smart winner up to 8.6f King George River. Yard in good form.

Forecasts

Annie Edson Taylor (13/8), Ojw Legacy (2/1), Ringabella (7/2), Lanzerac (4/1), Dalva's Boys (13/2), Cuban Confusion (13/2), Always Love You (16/1), Gerrit's Gem (33/1), Tobarnault (80/1)

OJW LEGACY matched her previous best and shaped well with a view to stepping back up in trip when runner-up in a 5f Navan maiden 2 weeks ago and she earns the vote to build on that here. Annie Edson Taylor on return and likely improvers Ringabella and Dalva's Boys are others to consider.
