Boston Benjamin^t1⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Chris Hayes| T: G Elliott| OR: 69

10/1

Far Above colt who ran to a fair level when fourth on second start in a Naas maiden (7f, soft) in September. Not in same form when eleventh of 14 in maiden at this C&D on only start since in November but a tongue tie now applied for handicap debut and better showing not ruled out.

Form: 740-

(9)

Tenacious¹²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Scott McCullagh| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 64

28/1

Ten Sovereigns filly who showed first form when seventh of 11 in maiden at Thurles (8.2f, good to soft,) on qualifying run back in October. Opening mark demands progress on handicap debut but she's in good hands and market confidence behind her would look significant.

Form: 007-

(8)

Princess Sioux^h¹⁰⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 63

4/1

Maiden who failed to progress from initial promise in maidens at 2 yrs, albeit possibly unsuited by conditions when fourteenth of 15 in nursery at Galway (7f, heavy) in October. Switched yards ahead of return to action and more is required.

Form: 705800-

Salacious¹²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: J Halley| OR: 63

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable eighth of 14 in nursery (7/1) at this course (6f) in October, merely passing beaten rivals. Off the track since but the assessor has relinquished his grip a little more ahead of this.

Form: 64588-

Apiary²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 61| BF

7/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (9/4) at this course (1m) 29 days ago, plugging on. Best effort to date did come at this C&D previously and a positive ride back down in trip could see her go close.

Form: 8762-3

(6)

Iff In Doubt^t⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Enola Pollet⁽¹⁰⁾| T: E Lynam| OR: 57

15/2

Low-mileage sort who has showed improved form switched to this surface, shaping better than distance beaten suggests when fourth of 13 in nursery at this C&D 56 days ago. Eased 1 lb ahead of this and one to consider at this level.

Form: 089034-

(5)

Iryna's Star^t1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 54

9/1

Cotai Glory filly who ran best race to date when 2¾ lengths third of 14 to Beau Army in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, steady headway 2f out and running on. Possible there could be more to come given her low-mileage profile.

Form: 509-03

Beau Army¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rory Cleary| T: A McGuinness| OR: 52| CD

11/4

Improver from a low base, off the mark over 6f here in November prior to following up in a 14-runner C&D handicap 12 days ago, comfortably on top at the line. Bold bid expected in hat-trick bid.

Form: 00061-1

Commander Kabaw^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽⁷⁾| T: Daniel Murphy| OR: 49

80/1

Yet to better poor form in 5 starts to date and he looks set for another struggle here.

Form: 700-80

(1)

Sand Art¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 47

8/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 14/1, eighth of 14 in maiden at this course (8f) 12 days ago, not knocked about but keeping on. That was his first start for 8 months and this switch to handicaps can see her in a better light.

Form: 90-8

(11)

Chapelhillhart¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽³⁾| T: Thomas Dowling| OR: 46

150/1

Limited promise in maidens and she again showed little equipped with a first-time hood when 17 lengths last of 14 to Beau Army in handicap (66/1) at this C&D 12 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 80-00

Forecasts

Beau Army (11/4), Apiary (7/2), Princess Sioux (4/1), Iff In Doubt (15/2), Sand Art (8/1), Iryna's Star (9/1), Boston Benjamin (10/1), Salacious (16/1), Tenacious (28/1), Commander Kabaw (80/1), Chapelhillhart (150/1)

BEAU ARMY has improved from a low base at this venue in recent months, comfortably supplementing her breakthrough success over 6f when comfortably landing a C&D handicap 12 days ago. She looks a big player in her bid to land the hat-trick. Apiary and If In Doubt may well provide chief resistance.
