3YO only | 1m 1f 120y | 15 Runners | Turf

(11)

Zitkala Sa^p1,t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Shane Foley| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 60

20/1

Finished down the field in first 2 starts, and fared no better when last of 10 at Leopardstown (150/1) 22 days ago. Makes handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 660

(5)

Amrum³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 57

4/1

Half-brother to very smart winner Siskin has shown little in maidens, last seen finishing sixth of 11 at Down Royal 3 days ago, but has seemingly been brought along with handicaps in mind. Makes handicap debut here for leading connections.

Form: 6796

(9)

Neon Eyes^h²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Gary Carroll| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 57

4/1

Didn't shape too badly on handicap debut, finishing fourth of 14 here 27 days ago, a wide passage not helping her chances. She's bred for longer trips and is open to improvement with this first step up to 9f+.

Form: 3-404

(8)

Concaire^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Ronan Whelan| T: R O'Brien| OR: 56

15/2

Not seen to best effect on handicap debut when sixth of 14 at Roscommon 21 days ago, and is worth a chance from a 3 lb lower mark over a longer trip that should suit.

Form: 7086

(15)

Maker's Mark^h¹⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Sadhbh Tormey⁽⁷⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 56

50/1

Showed little last year (including tried in a hood latest start) and returns here following 7 months off.

Form: 749990-

(4)

Premier Princess²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: J M Sheridan| T: D Hogan| OR: 56

12/1

Fared no better when sixth of 7 in a maiden at Ballinrobe 24 days ago. Steps into handicaps for the first time which may see her in a better light.

Form: 506

(2)

Ochtar Againn²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: M J Byrne| OR: 55

14/1

Showed a lot more on handicap debut when fifth of 14 here 27 days ago, making rapid progress out wide, eventually paying the price for that big move. Could have more to offer.

Form: 7-005

(6)

A Pretty Penny²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: Debbie Cody| OR: 54| D

4/1

Left previous efforts behind to get off the mark in a 13-runner handicap at Ballinrobe 24 days ago, justifying good support with the step up to this trip suiting (a couple of future winners in behind and the form looks good for this level). Should be competitive from a 6 lb mark.

Form: 580-551

(3)

Borora Aura^h²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 52

8/1

Lightly raced filly who took a small step forward when third of 10 in a claimer at Ballinrobe (15/2, backed at long odds) 24 days ago, following a step up to this trip. Now makes her handicap debut.

Form: 793

(1)

Rodeo Blues²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 50

18/1

Shown little across 3 quick runs in maidens. Makes handicap debut for leading trainer and could do better.

Form: 090

(7)

Curious Jane³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁵⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 49

28/1

Well held in 3 maidens to date at long odds. Very hard to give a chance to on handicap debut.

Form: 0-00

(12)

Starflow^t²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Billy Lee| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 47

10/1

Little impression in 3 maidens, fitted with a tongue tie when eighth of 12 here 27 days ago. Back up in trip on handicap debut for yard going well.

Form: 0-88

(14)

Threebiggulps²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: J G Coogan| OR: 45

16/1

Shown little in 3 maidens and now makes handicap debut over a longer trip.

Form: 009

(10)

Canon Law^p1²²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Luke McAteer| T: B W Duke| OR: 44

16/1

Showed first form when fifth of 15 in a nursery over 7f here last October. Bred for middle distances and steps up in trip on return from 8 months off in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 0005-

(13)

Wedding Year^t³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Chris Hayes| T: A McGuinness| OR: 41

6/1

Better efforts on the all-weather this year, including third of 10 at Dundalk in April, suited by longer trip. Steps up again in distance here but needs to keep up the good work back on turf.

Form: 0005-43

Forecasts

A Pretty Penny (11/4), Wedding Year (5/1), Canon Law (8/1), Neon Eyes (8/1), Borora Aura (8/1), Ochtar Againn (10/1), Rodeo Blues (10/1), Concaire (12/1), Amrum (12/1), Starflow (14/1), Premier Princess (16/1), Zitkala Sa (25/1), Curious Jane (25/1), Threebiggulps (33/1), Maker's Mark (33/1)

The more competitive of the two divisions, and NEON EYES looks open to improvement with the step up in trip sure to suit, having made an encouraging start in handicaps last month. Amrum makes his handicap debut and as a half-brother to very smart winner Siskin could improve in this sphere. A Pretty Penny's win at Ballinrobe is working out well and she can feature also.
