Won back-to-back handicaps last autumn, including at this course and distance. Finished 25th of 27 in handicap at Curragh (18/1) 135 days ago, might have needed the run after four months off. Previous course and distance winner who could bounce back at a venue that suits.

7/1

Dark Viper⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 78

6/1

Consistent performer in 7f handicaps with one win over 8f, proved better than ever when runner-up of 11 in handicap at Naas (6/1) 6 days ago. Often finds one too good but maintains decent form.

25/1

Won back-to-back 7f handicaps at Leopardstown in June before finishing last of 17 at 8f (13/2) 19 days ago when reported to have made a noise. Better judged on previous form at this distance.

Alpha Capture¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: J A Heffernan| T: W P Mullins| OR: 77| BF

9/1

Shaped well when 2nd of 16 at Leopardstown (13/2) in June. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Killarney (11/4) 15 days ago, best not judged as was poorly placed and slowly into stride. Hood removed today and likely to be suited by return to this C&D.

Form: 0172-27

Flying Bay^p1,t³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Ben Coen| T: A Kinirons| OR: 76| C

7/1

Won a maiden at this course last year and finished fifth of 14 in 7f handicap at Down Royal (8/1) 39 days ago, making headway late but left with too much to do. First-time cheekpieces may spark improvement.

Form: 54/21-05

Forecasts

Dark Viper (6/1), Apache Outlaw (7/1), Flying Bay (7/1), Summer Snow (8/1), Rhythm King (8/1), Goal Exceeded (8/1), Alpha Capture (9/1), Imposing Supreme (9/1), On A Session (12/1), Merlin The Wizard (12/1), Expound (14/1), Titanium (20/1), No More Porter (20/1), Ramiro (20/1), Exquisite Acclaim (25/1), Finsceal Annie (25/1), Mile End (25/1), Facethepuckout (40/1)

ALPHA CAPTURE shaped with plenty of encouragement at Leopardstown in June and is best not judged on his subsequent Killarney run where he was poorly placed. Imposing Supreme is a Galway specialist with 4 wins here and ran respectably after a 10-month absence. Apache Outlaw continues to fall in weights and may take advantage.
