Amplitude¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Gary Carroll| T: J G Murphy| OR: 81

9/1

Signed off last year with a maiden win at Gowran and back in good order again, third of 14 in handicap at Ballinrobe (13f, good) 10 days ago. Can give another good account.

Obscenity^v²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 77

11/10

Visored for first time and produced a big career best when winning 23-runner handicap at Navan (1¼m) 23 days ago, well positioned. Up 12 lb but one to keep on the right side of given his pedigree/connections, with this trip also a plus.

Superficial¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: A McNamara| OR: 74

4/1

Respectable sixth of 14 in handicap at Ballinrobe (13f, good) 10 days ago, not ideally placed, too. Previous runner-up effort worked out well and he's expected to be bang there.

Form: 5753-26

Silent Guardian^h⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Luke McAteer| T: A McCann| OR: 73

25/1

Much improved when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19f, heavy) 53 days ago, easily. Hood on first time on the Flat (on when successful over jumps) and dangerous if continuing the good work on the level.

Lily Parr¹⁸⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Robbie Colgan| T: S Lavery| OR: 67

22/1

Below-form fourth of 10 in maiden at Dundalk (1½m). Off 180 days and fairly treated on her best form but yard struggling for winners.

Mr Rango¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽³⁾| T: J Barcoe| OR: 66

9/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. Respectable fourth of 14 in handicap (11/1) at Ballinrobe (13f, good) 10 days ago, seemingly going through the motions rather.

Form: 30-0474

Age: 10| Weight: 8-12| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: P Byrne| OR: 64| CD

20/1

Won this race a year ago from 2 lb lower. Ended 2025 in disappointing fashion and doesn't have race fitness on his side this time.

Cooley's Mist²⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Chris Hayes| T: H Rogers| OR: 63

16/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2025. 7/1, seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (1½m, good) 7 days ago, not ideally placed. Eased further 3 lb, which makes him of some interest.

Forecasts

Obscenity (11/10), Superficial (4/1), Amplitude (9/1), Mr Rango (9/1), Radar Ahead (11/1), Cooley's Mist (14/1), God Of Thunder (16/1), Out On Friday (20/1), Pavilion End (20/1), Lily Parr (22/1), Silent Guardian (25/1), La Dame Blanche (33/1)

Having finished second in a race which worked out well at Bellewstown, SUPERFICIAL shaped well at Ballinrobe from an unpromising position 10 days ago, suggesting he can win from this sort of mark. Obscenity is sure to be popular, with recent hurdles winner Silent Guardian also of major interest.
