Factual Fact⁴⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 12-3| J: Mr J Dunne| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 81| BF

15/8

Impressive bumper winner who has run to a fairly useful level on the Flat, shaping well when second of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (1½m, heavy) on reappearance 45 days ago, left with too much to do. Leading claims.

Form: 322-2

Riyami^p,t¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr J P Sampson⁽⁴⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 75

40/1

Returned to form from out of the blue (first run since reportedly undergoing a breathing operation) when striking at Dundalk (2m) in March but well held on all-weather at Lingfield and over fences at Kilbeggan since. Bounce back needed.

Form: 02/0010

Wandering Rocks^b,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr A D Bustin| T: W Durkan| OR: 75| D

22/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 16/1 and blinkered first time, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Dundalk (1½m) 19 days ago. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 25/4753

Dark Note¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Ms E C Costello⁽²⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 71| D

5/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2023 but showed decent form when reaching the frame in Flat handicaps final 3 outings in 2025. Hard to get excited by his exploits over jumps since but he might have needed his latest run at Cork after 5 months off.

Form: 34243-4

Harry's Legacy^t³⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr L P Shanahan| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 71| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Good third of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Gowran (1¾m, soft) 34 days ago. Back up in trip. Enters calculations.

Form: 400/40-3

Sequoiaspirit^t³⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr L Hackett⁽⁴⁾| T: R Hackett| OR: 71| BF| C

17/2

Course winner. 18/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft) 37 days ago. Needs a return to the Flat to help spark a revival.

Form: 1148/23-

Hidalgo Des Mottes^b,t¹⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: Ms N M Bradley⁽⁴⁾| T: E Griffin| OR: 67

80/1

Maiden who was 22 lengths fifth in a 19f Kilbeggan handicap hurdle on return from a break 18 days ago. Well held on all-weather at Dundalk in his previous Flat handicap. Others are more persuasive.

Form: 4790-

Winning Smut^t³⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr J M Halford| T: G Elliott| OR: 67

15/8

Had 3 runs in Flat maidens for Michael Hourigan in 2024. Has shown fairly useful winning form over hurdles for Gordon Elliott since and should have scope from this sort of mark on the Flat. Top stable won this last year. Interesting runner.

Chain Of Destiny⁹³⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-7| J: Mr W T Ladd Finn⁽⁴⁾| T: D E Finn| OR: 52

300/1

His third at the Curragh in October 2022 is very much a standout effort and he's been off for over 2 years ahead of this handicap debut. Can only watch.

Forecasts

Factual Fact (15/8), Winning Smut (15/8), Dark Note (5/1), Harry's Legacy (13/2), Slurricane (13/2), Sequoiaspirit (17/2), Wandering Rocks (22/1), Riyami (40/1), Hidalgo Des Mottes (80/1), Chain Of Destiny (300/1)

FACTUAL FACT can build on his encouraging reappearance and land a first success on the Flat. Winning Smut is potentially well treated from a mark in the 60s based on his fairly useful hurdle form since joining Gordon Elliott and is feared most ahead of Ross O'Sullivan pair Harry's Legacy and Slurricane.
