9/2

Confirmed return to form when third at Galway over 7f before finishing ninth of 15 in handicap at Listowel (4/1) 21 days ago, best not judged on that run having been forced very wide from highest draw. Best efforts have come on soft going over 7f and he could be competitive here.

14/1

20/1

Better effort but didn't look the easiest ride when third in Tipperary handicap (7f) in August and well beaten in 11th of 14 in Dundalk handicap (AW, 50/1) 24 days ago. Positive jockey booking and could be more competitive if overcoming a wide draw.

NIBRAS RAINBOW has been knocking on the door with three seconds in his last five starts, including a narrow defeat at Bellewstown when finishing strongly despite drifting left late and he may be able to go one better in a competitive handicap. My Kurkum goes well fresh and may prove the main danger ahead of Late Night Talking who produced his best turf effort when runner-up last time. Of the rest, Racing Royalty has conditions to suit, while Half Nutz could be interesting if lining up.
