Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: D S O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: G Scott| OR: 63| D

16/1

Latest win at Listowel in September. Run best excused when tenth of 16 in handicap (9/1) at Cork (8f, good to soft) 9 days ago, not clear run from 3f out. Good pace to aim at will suit ideally.

Form: 880910

Pink Socks⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: W J Lee| T: T Doyle| OR: 61| D

13/2

One win from 24 Flat runs. Below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft, 11/2) 9 days ago, weakening final 1f having raced wider than ideal. Has good chance on pick of form.

Amemri¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Luke McAteer| T: D Marnane| OR: 54| D

12/1

11/2, won 14-runner handicap at Listowel (7.1f, good to soft) 16 days ago, leading entering final 1f and always holding on. Effective at this longer trip and she's another worth considering.

Galician Girl⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Ronan Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 56| D

8/1

7/1, below form seventh of 16 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 9 days ago, not ideally placed and not unduly punished. Still, balance of recent exploits suggest she needs to step up in any case.

Brackloon Bay^t¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J A Heffernan| T: S K Ryder| OR: 55

100/1

Modest form at best in 2 starts as a juvenile and she offered little starting out for new yard/after 10 months off when tenth of 11 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, good) 19 days ago. Only confidence behind her in the betting would make her of interest now handicapping. Hood quickly discarded.

Form: 09-0

Han Solo^p¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: J A Powell⁽³⁾| T: A Leahy| OR: 52| D

14/1

Infrequent winner but she did at least run respectably when fifth of 16 to Relevant Range in handicap at Listowel (8f, good to soft, 14/1) 17 days ago. Mark is steadily easing.

8/1

Bit below form fourth of 16 in handicap (4/1) at Cork (8f, good to soft) 9 days ago, keeping on. Looks sure to give another good account.

Dynamite Defense^b¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J M Sheridan| T: D Hogan| OR: 54| D

17/2

12/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f) 13 days ago, hanging badly left final 1f and driven out. Wouldn't be sure to be in same form here on that evidence.

Form: 600921

Warazam⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P Fahey| OR: 53

5/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Produced best effort yet when second of 16 in handicap (18/1) at Cork (8f, good to soft) 9 days ago, clear of rest. Operating from a low base and worth considering with potential for better still.

Form: 0892

Chou Chou⁸⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Chris Hayes| T: E O'Connell| OR: 51

28/1

12/1, creditable fourth of 8 in claimer at Killarney (8.2f, good) 85 days ago, plugging on having not been ideally placed. Not out of things on debut for new stable.

16/1

66/1, creditable sixth of 13 in handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 35 days ago, plugging on. Needs to pull out a lot more.

Form: 08666

Pegula³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: G M Ryan| T: T Doyle| OR: 47

66/1

Hooded for 1st time, fourteenth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (8f, good to soft, 40/1) 37 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 00-2000

Poppadom⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽¹⁰⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 47

22/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Below form seventh of 16 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft, 16/1) 9 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Colin Keane| T: D Hogan| OR: 60| D

13/2

Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (8f) 13 days ago, rallying final 1f. Reserve 1.

Forecasts

Warazam (5/2), Asisaid (9/2), Church Mountain (13/2), Pink Socks (13/2), Skontonovski (8/1), Galician Girl (8/1), Dynamite Defense (17/2), Amemri (12/1), Han Solo (14/1), Dark Treat (16/1), Relevant Range (16/1), Poppadom (22/1), Chou Chou (28/1), Pegula (66/1), Brackloon Bay (100/1)

This has a wide-open feel but ASISAID has fallen to a workable mark and shaped as though the return to 1m would suit when staying on for sixth at Galway 4 weeks ago. He gets the nod ahead of Pink Socks, who appeals as being in better heart than recent form figures suggest. Low-mileage Warazam and Listowel scorer Amemri complete the dangers.
