I Am Superman^t¹³²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-4| J: L F Roche| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 99| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Bit below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Naas (7f, good to soft, 15/2). Off 132 days. Very much of interested back on this surface and reunited with Colin Keane (winner of 2 of his 5 starts when partnered by Keane).

Hightimeyouwon^b⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 9-13| J: J Cleary⁽⁵⁾| T: Stephen Thorne| OR: 94| CD

9/2

Evens, didn't need to be at best when winning 13-runner claimer at this C&D 7 days ago, kept up to work. That was his fourth success over C&D and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 224-211

Final Voyage³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Ben Coen| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 93| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Respectable 2¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Exquisite Acclaim in minor event at this course (7f, 8/1) 35 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 36394-4

Perfect Judgement^b¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Jack Kearney⁽⁵⁾| T: Stephen Thorne| OR: 92| CD

15/2

Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (3/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, comfortably (that was his third C&D success). However, this 8 lb higher mark demands improvement.

Form: 5451-11

(7)

Exquisite Acclaim^p²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Adam Caffrey⁽³⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 89| CD

20/1

Five-time course winner, the latest gained last month. 4/1, 3½ lengths fourth of 7 to Hightimeyouwon in handicap at this course (7f) 23 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 1729-14

Catch The Paddy¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Rory Mulligan⁽⁷⁾| T: P J McKenna| OR: 87| CD

11/1

C&D winner. 9/2, creditable 3½ lengths third of 9 to Perfect Judgement in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Enjoys a handy pull at the weights with that rival, so he may well finish closer this time.

Form: 0014-73

Cheers Again²³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 86| CD

9/4

Three-time C&D winner. 17/2, thirteenth of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good) when last seen 7 months ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 001/330-

Bucaneer's Spirit^b1¹³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: James Ryan⁽³⁾| T: J Davison| OR: 83| D

12/1

Latest win at Navan in September. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (9/2). Blinkers on 1st time and he could have a part to play, provided that he is ready to roll following a 133-day break.

Form: 221314-

33/1

C&D winner. 22/1, respectable 4¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Perfect Judgement in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Not without each-way hope.

Glen Princess^b,t¹⁴

100/1

Form: 901D-66

Forecasts

Cheers Again (9/4), Hightimeyouwon (9/2), I Am Superman (5/1), Proleek Prince (6/1), Perfect Judgement (15/2), Final Voyage (11/1), Catch The Paddy (11/1), Bucaneer's Spirit (12/1), Exquisite Acclaim (20/1), Migdam (33/1), Glen Princess (100/1)

Though AM SUPERMAN's overall profile suggests that consistency isn't his forte, he has brought his 'A' game on both previous visits to this track and is appealing back here with Colin Keane in the hot-seat. There are dangers aplenty, headed by Proleek Prince, who was narrowly outpointed by Perfect Judgement in the run-up to Christmas and he is now weighted to reverse those placings. Final Voyage was behind a couple of these last time but the return to this trip will help and he is third choice.
