Two Can Plan^t²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: Cian Cullinan⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 99

33/1

Limited impact in maidens and remains to be seen if switch to handicapping brings about improvement.

Form: P067

Pourquoi Poi¹⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: P W Flynn| OR: 98| BF

4/1

Lightly-raced sort who scored at Punchestown (2½m) in October and backed that up with very good fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Thurles the following month. Needs considering.

Form: 0-0515

The Dancen Kid^h³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Shane Fitzgerald| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 96

12/1

Third of 18 in Leopardstown handicap last month. Not in quite the same form at Wexford since but still enters calculations back up in trip here.

Form: 000736

Ferdia⁴³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Brian Barry⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 95

50/1

On lengthy losing run and pulled up on last 3 starts. Has stacks to prove.

Form: PP8PPP

Coup D'essay⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Ben Harvey| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 94

40/1

Matched best maiden form when creditable eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (2m, heavy) 8 days ago and looks well worth a try at this longer trip. Respected.

Form: F8008

Krishna Bellevue^p1²³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: Ian Donoghue| OR: 93

33/1

Handed a stiff opening mark and finished well held on handicap bow at Kilbeggan 7 months ago on his final start for Ross O'Sullivan. Cheekpieces on first time.

Form: 9840

Dahoma⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-6| J: Kevin Healy⁽⁷⁾| T: D Queally| OR: 100

12/1

Yet to score and reportedly broke blood vessel when pulled up at Leopardstown 53 days ago.

Form: 9000P

Mon Sheriffe⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: Tiernan Power Roche| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 92

7/1

Returned to somewhere near best form when creditable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle over shorter trip at Bellewstown 6 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Form: 4636P6

Sarah's Express²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Danny Mullins| T: P A Fahy| OR: 89

18/1

Far from disgraced when fourth of 12 in novice hurdle at Clonmel 29 days ago. Suspicion remains she would appreciate further, however.

Form: 77-85P4

The Toothpicker^t⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: D Budds| OR: 89

8/1

Yet to score but arrives on back of creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (2m, heavy, 7/1) 8 days ago. Return to this longer trip is a plus and must be taken seriously.

Form: F50055

Michael's Jet⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr B M Coonan⁽⁷⁾| T: V C Ward| OR: 85

50/1

Offered little in a trio of maidens and is likely best watched on handicap hurdle debut.

Form: 0P0

Centaq¹¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Patrick M O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 82

14/1

Remains a maiden after 11 starts and ran out in handicap hurdle at Down Royal when last seen in December. Looks risky on the back of that.

Form: 42290R

Ahellofaman^h¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: Gary Noonan| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 87

33/1

Still looking for first victory but looked unsuited by longer trip when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Plumpton 19 days ago. Hood back on. Not out of things.

Form: 942075

Dontdooddson¹¹⁹

Age: 13| Weight: 10-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: D Collins| OR: 72

28/1

Good seventh of 14 in handicap chase over shorter trip at Limerick in December. Remains feasibly treated but looks vulnerable for win purposes all the same.

Form: 796477

Laska Du Breuil^p1⁶⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 88

17/2

Yet to trouble the judge after 7 attempts and was below form when sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (2½m, heavy) 65 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Others more appealing. RESERVE.

Form: 607696

Fort Randall⁴⁵⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr O McGill⁽⁵⁾| T: N C Kelly| OR: 89

2/1

Maiden who finished a good third in handicap at Tramore (2m) in August on final start for Shark Hanlon. Disappointed, tried in visor, when seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal in January of last year and not seen since. RESERVE.

POURQUOI POI made a positive start in handicap company last autumn and returns to the track on a workable mark. He gets the nod. Euro Maker and The Toothpicker head the list of dangers.
