Gotta Catch'em All^t¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: H Rogers| OR: 60

4/1

40/1, good sixth of 18 in maiden at Galway (12.2f, good to soft) 17 days ago and, though winless following 13 attempts, he is certainly capable of playing a leading role off this mark.

Form: 20-6756

Moondharrig^b,t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: Daniel King| T: E Doyle| OR: 59

10/1

Sixteenth of 21 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good, 80/1) 9 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and he's readily passed over.

Form: 159-000

Captain Hanley^t⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Robert Whearty⁽³⁾| T: E O'Connell| OR: 58

4/1

First run since leaving Adrian McGuinness when creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Tipperary (12.5f, good to firm) 8 days ago, never nearer. Shortlist material.

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Wayne Hassett⁽³⁾| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 58| CD

6/4

Two wins from 2 runs this year. 9/4, didn't need to be at best when winning 11-runner handicap at Limerick (11.3f, good) 35 days ago. Has to be respected in her hat-trick bid.

Form: 4655-11

Serafina^v²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Leigh Roche| T: D K Weld| OR: 52

25/1

Eleventh of 13 in handicap (20/1) at Gowran (9.5f, good) 21 days ago. Up in trip and she's opposable.

Form: 7741/80

Daymer Bay^p,t¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Sam Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 50

14/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable sixth of 13 in handicap at Sligo (13.5f, good to soft, 50/1) 10 days ago, left poorly placed. Others make more appeal.

Form: 99-0906

Highway Sixty One^p²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: A McNamara| OR: 50

6/1

28/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Down Royal (13f, good) 29 days ago, not clear run. Couldn't rule out.

Forecasts

Stepdance (6/4), Gotta Catch'em All (4/1), Captain Hanley (4/1), Highway Sixty One (6/1), Moondharrig (10/1), Daymer Bay (14/1), Serafina (25/1)

It remains to be seen if GOTTA CATCH'EM ALL will be able to back up his latest Galway effort, which was by far his best of the season so far, but he will have a serious chance of finally shedding his maiden tag if able to do so. Captain Hanley and Highway Sixty One may emerge as the main dangers, while the hat-trick seeking Stepdance has to enter calculations, too.
