Jampa Ling¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Declan McDonogh| T: K P Cotter| OR: 66| BF

13/2

Didn't show much in a couple of turf maidens at 2 yrs but has run with credit in both starts this year, latest when fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f) 12 days ago. Return to this longer trip a plus and he warrants respect.

Form: 00-25

Love Bomb^v¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 66

33/1

Winner at Down Royal in September but been well below that level since. Work to do.

Form: 48188-9

One Cool Bear³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Adam Caffrey| T: A McGuinness| OR: 66

10/3

Found improvement, back from 4 months off, when very good second of 13 in handicap at this course (7f) 33 days ago, getting first run. 4 lb higher now but must enter calculations.

Form: 00260-2

(3)

Dream And Believe¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Ben Coen| T: Daniel Murphy| OR: 62

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden who didn't shape too badly, back from 5 months off, when seventh of 15 in handicap (10/1) at Naas (5f, heavy) 10 days ago, slowly away. More needed to defy current mark, though.

Form: 707-7

(5)

Faustyna⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Gary Carroll| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 62| CD

5/1

Made winning debut in 8-runner maiden over C&D 49 days ago and is open to improvement on switch to handicapping.

Form: 1

Stone Bear⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽³⁾| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 60| CD

13/2

Found improvement when scoring over C&D in January and may have found longer trip against her when below form here latest. Not out of things.

Form: 5075-17

(7)

Pretty Liz¹⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Alan Casey⁽⁷⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 57

33/1

Ended last campaign with respectable fifth of 13 in nursery at this course (5f, 25/1) in October and looks feasibly treated if ready to roll on return here.

Form: 709855-

Royal County Glory¹¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: K Smith| OR: 57

4/1

Made the frame in all 3 starts over this C&D last year, ending campaign with creditable fourth of 14 in nursery in December. Likely player on return.

Form: 603024-

(11)

Bullet Bourbon^h¹¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Sadhbh Tormey⁽⁷⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 56

50/1

More exposed than many of her rivals and ran poorly when last seen in December.

Form: 069390-

(13)

Spirit Above^t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Leigh Roche| T: K Smith| OR: 55

66/1

Unable to land a blow in a trio of maidens and remains to be seen if switch to handicapping brings about improvement.

Form: 7-77

(9)

Lady Landhort¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: M Fahey| OR: 53| CD

12/1

Much improved when winning 12-runner handicap over C&D 19 days ago, driven out. 4 lb higher now but she remains low mileage.

Form: 500-01

(8)

Cause I Like You^t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 51| BF

18/1

Still looking for first success and recent efforts haven't offered much encouragement.

Form: 944-580

(4)

Dream Legend¹²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Wayne Lordan| T: E D Delany| OR: 49

18/1

Unreliable sort (has looked reluctant to race) but he did at least show first form when sixth of 14 in nursery over C&D in November. Needs to build on that now.

Form: 000006-

Forecasts

One Cool Bear (10/3), Royal County Glory (4/1), Faustyna (5/1), Dream And Believe (11/2), Stone Bear (13/2), Jampa Ling (13/2), Lady Landhort (12/1), Cause I Like You (18/1), Dream Legend (18/1), Love Bomb (33/1), Pretty Liz (33/1), Bullet Bourbon (50/1), Spirit Above (66/1)

ROYAL COUNTY GLORY reappears off a handy mark and could be the answer to a tricky-looking contest. One Cool Bear and Faustyna can also make their presence felt.
