Nopresentliketime³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jake Coen| T: G Elliott

7/1

Hails from a family his yard have had success with and he made a promising reappearance/hurdle debut when clear second to a promising one in maiden at Ayr. Not so good at Navan just 18 days on but remains with potential.

Form: 5-25

Oaks Soldier³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Carl Millar⁽⁵⁾| T: Eamon Courtney| OR: 112

13/8

Improved again when edged out on the line in 23f Thurles handicap last month. Looks a thorough stayer and sets the standard back in maiden company.

Form: 3-45842

Strange Currency³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Gavin Brouder| T: G O'Loughlin| OR: 112

15/2

Easily best effort over hurdles (fair form) when third of 15 in maiden at Punchestown in February, ridden positively. Took keen hold at Leopardstown last time. Steps up in trip.

Walk Away Harry⁹³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Gary Noonan| T: C Coakley| OR: 100

33/1

Bumper winner but has lost his way over jumps. Only of interest if the subject of market support upped in trip starting out with new trainer.

Form: 049-008

Belladona Princess^p1²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Philip Donovan⁽³⁾| T: Gerard O'Leary| OR: 109

9/2

Got back on track despite an erratic round of jumping upped to 3m when second in Limerick maiden last time. That is a platform to build on. Cheekpieces now tried.

Form: 03792

Forecasts

Oaks Soldier (13/8), Jackmoon (9/2), Belladona Princess (9/2), Tom Mac (6/1), Nopresentliketime (7/1), Strange Currency (15/2), Fenian Maxios (16/1), Walk Away Harry (33/1), Friends Of Barry (80/1), Brightmarchmorning (125/1), Three County Star (150/1), Bruise Hill (300/1), Mr Babes (300/1)

OAKS SOLDIER relished the longer trip when just failing at Thurles and is worth backing to gain compensation. Belladona Princess might be the danger after her good second at Limerick when also stepping up in distance.
