5/6

1 win from 2 runs this year. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap (11/2) at Down Royal (12.8f, soft) 10 days ago. Up 9 lb but she scored comfortably there so is a player on his first run for yard after leaving Eric McNamara.

Form: 0/114-01

18/1

Eleventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16f, good to soft, 5/1) 142 days ago. Fair on the Flat so he's very much one to consider off a handy-looking mark.

Londonofficecallin (5/6), Dumb Love (5/1), Steps In The Sand (10/1), Tastyee (11/1), Silkies Sib (12/1), Fine Print (14/1), Evolving (16/1), Scott Lang (18/1), Pegasus Of Harry (25/1), Jet Times (25/1), Hopkins (33/1), Randall Poets Lass (33/1), Daniels Dream (33/1), Action Motion (40/1)

LONDONOFFICECALLIN starts out with Gavin Cromwell on the back of a ready Down Royal victory and is fancied to make light of a 9 lb hike in the weights. Scott Lang returns to this sphere on an attractive mark so could emerge as the main danger ahead of Tastyee and Pegasus of Harry.
