Jasmine Affanalis^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Luke McAteer| T: D Marnane| OR: 60

18/1

Won over 9f at Tipperary last August but hasn't shown much in 4 starts on polytrack, including on return from 6 months off last time.

Form: 82521-0

Son Of Wind^h1¹⁶⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Robbie Colgan| T: M J Smith| OR: 60

40/1

Won nursery at Chelmsford. Largely struggled last year but has come down the handicap as a result. Makes debut for a yard no stranger to a winner at this course, though fitted with a hood and has stamina to prove upped to 7f.

Comfort Line^v⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: Cillian Rowan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 59| CD

5/1

A 6-time course winner. Has shaped with promise on both starts since rejoining current yard, chasing home Amemri over C&D last week. Consistency has never been his strong suit, but a repeat of that performance will see him very much in the mix.

Form: 77-6052

Roman Harry²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: N G McCullagh| T: S M Duffy| OR: 59| CD

10/1

Won claimer over C&D in December. Shaped as if better for the run when 1½ lengths fourth of 13 to Bella Colombia back in handicap company and on debut for current connections last time. Place prospects.

Form: 80501-4

Vibrato⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Killian Leonard| T: C Collins| OR: 59| D

13/2

Yet to show much since leaving L J Morgan's yard last autumn but wasn't seen to best effect when mid-field over inadequate trip here last time. Drops into a 0-60 handicap for the first time and will be suited by the step back up in trip.

Form: 600-007

Hot To Foxtrot^t¹¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: J Feane| OR: 57

22/1

Third of 10 in a 5f maiden at Down Royal on 2025 return but failed to kick on in handicaps next 3 starts, including on polytrack debut on latest. Hard to fancy after 114 days off.

Form: 35/3900-

Jazzy Dancer^p¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁷⁾| T: W J Martin| OR: 57| BF| CD

6/1

Going through a good spell, winning a handicap over C&D in February before running well under a penalty when ½-length second of 12 Lady Landhort over 6f here 14 days ago. Back at 7f and booking of good-value claimer appears a sign of intent.

Form: 6360-12

(15)

Winemaker^p1¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: Shane Foley| T: H D McGuigan| OR: 57| CD

8/1

Has won 3 times at Dundalk, including in January on first run for current yard. Not seen to best effect back on turf last time. Fully-fledged rider back on board and first-time cheekpieces applied, but has a wide draw to overcome.

Form: 485-148

Methgal^b,t⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Conor Cusack⁽⁷⁾| T: P J F Murphy| OR: 55

16/1

Still a maiden from 11 starts. Fourth in 1m handicap here in January before looking stretched by longer trip last time. Back down to 7f now with blinkers back on but others have far more attractive profiles.

Form: 7080-48

(2)

Qvee^h1¹⁵⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Ronan Whelan| T: T Collins| OR: 49

18/1

Made little impact in trio of turf maidens and a handicap in 2025. Wears a first-time hood on all-weather debut.

Form: 6700-

Sakakawea^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Colin Keane| T: T M Walsh| OR: 48

3/1

Ended last year in form and continued that trend when third of 14 to Amemri in a handicap over C&D 7 days ago after a 3-month absence (finished nose behind Comfort Line). Knocking on the door but wide draw not ideal.

Form: 00445-3

Cosmic Force¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Adam Caffrey| T: K H Clarke| OR: 46

20/1

Winless from 13 starts, but ran one of his better races when sixth of 12 in 6f handicap here last time.

Form: 40408-6

(5)

Deep Vein^b,p1²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Chris Hayes| T: N Meade| OR: 43

22/1

Mid-field at best in maidens and handicaps, looking stretched by the longer trip last time. Cheekpieces back on but will need to improve to figure.

Form: 00/006-9

Manhattan Dandy²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 8-11| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: Thomas Coyle| OR: 41| D

14/1

In frame 5 times in 2025, but a long time without a win and below best all 3 starts this year.

Form: 292-746

Forecasts

Sakakawea (3/1), Comfort Line (5/1), Jazzy Dancer (6/1), Vibrato (13/2), Winemaker (8/1), Roman Harry (10/1), Manhattan Dandy (14/1), Methgal (16/1), Jasmine Affanalis (18/1), Qvee (18/1), Cosmic Force (20/1), Carrickfinn (20/1), Hot To Foxtrot (22/1), Deep Vein (22/1), Son Of Wind (40/1)

A chance is taken on VIBRATO, who hinted at a revival over an inadequate 5f here last time and is well treated. This isn’t lacking depth, though, with Jazzy Dancer, Comfort Line and Sakakawea among a host of credible dangers.
