Captain Ciano^p⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: James Ryan| T: T G McCourt| OR: 58

22/1

Last of 23 in handicap at Navan (1¼m, good) 41 days ago. Lot to prove at present with cheekpieces back on.

Form: 02-5000

(7)

She's Ideal⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 57

10/3

Has been shaping up well in handicaps, forced wide and never nearer when third of 16 at this course (1¼m, good) 8 days ago. Has to be of serious interest.

Form: 94-4243

(5)

Tara Na Ri¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Sam Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: N Meade| OR: 57

14/1

Cheekpieces on for first time, tenth of 15 in handicap at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft, 28/1) 18 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip and hard to recommend on what he's achieved since return.

Form: 9/98-00

(11)

Amavasya^h²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Billy Lee| T: M C Grassick| OR: 54

9/2

Produced best effort when fourth in 1½m handicap at Cork last summer. Stepped up on reappearance when eighth of 19 in handicap at Leopardstown (13f) 21 days ago and she's a player on that form, for all this drop in trip isn't certain to suit.

Form: 5485-08

(6)

Lust²²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Robert Whearty| T: Conor Maxwell| OR: 53

33/1

21 runs since last win in 2022. 50/1, nineteenth of 22 in handicap at the Curragh (1m, heavy), losing all chance at start. Off 7 months and issues at the stalls means he's best treated with caution.

Form: 0/80500-

(13)

Thegooseiscooked³¹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-10| J: Jack Kearney⁽³⁾| T: G Keane| OR: 53

20/1

Sent off 40/1 and almost certainly needed the run after 7 months off when thirteenth of 15 in handicap at Gowran (1m, good to soft) 31 days ago. Back up in trip and should run closer to form this time.

Form: 13764-0

(10)

Sweet Baby Zou^p⁴^{(ex 7)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J M Sheridan| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 57| D

6/5

Failed to meet expectations at Down Royal but turned out 3 days later with cheekpieces on for first time and produced a big career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Gowran (9.5f, good) 4 days ago, pushed out. Carries penalty but she'll take some stopping.

Form: 900781

(8)

Cuckaloo Hill^t¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: M Flannery| OR: 48

7/1

Dropping in the weights without looking ready to take advantage, failing to back up a slightly better effort at Ballinrobe at Roscommon 18 days ago.

Form: 908-040

(16)

Barretstown⁴³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: J Cleary⁽⁵⁾| T: C O'Dwyer| OR: 46| D

40/1

Dundalk winner in the autumn but more miss than hit at that venue since. Is at least 4 lb below that mark returned to turf.

Form: 5-00370

(12)

Ella's Gold²²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Robbie Colgan| T: M J Smith| OR: 59

9/1

Second to an impressive next-time-out winner on nursery debut at Naas and backed that up when very good second of 15 at Gowran (7f, heavy) a month later. Significantly up in trip on reappearance and she's one to consider.

Form: 07022-

(3)

Onyeisi^b⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Coen| T: K Thornton| OR: 58| D

28/1

Second on three occasions over all-weather in January for Charlie Johnston but low-key start on turf for current yard.

Form: 222707

(15)

Kilgharrahs Love^p,t¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Rory Cleary| T: T Cleary| OR: 40

40/1

Continues to pose little threat, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (1½m) 10 days ago.

Form: 67-0070

(4)

Master Garvey^t¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: Joseph Murray| OR: 40

10/1

Two wins from 50 Flat runs and operating below best at present, fifth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (1m, good to soft) 16 days ago. Back up in trip.

Form: 453875

(2)

Coul Dore^h1²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Leigh Roche| T: W R Crawford| OR: 46

22/1

First run since leaving Stuart Crawford when tenth of 13 in handicap at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good) 28 days ago. Hood on first time from out of the weights.

Form: 000-0

Forecasts

Sweet Baby Zou (9/4), Ella's Gold (7/2), She's Ideal (4/1), Master Garvey (7/1), Amavasya (14/1), Medieval Night (16/1), Cuckaloo Hill (16/1), Barretstown (20/1), Onyeisi (20/1), Hiltons Pass (25/1), Thegooseiscooked (25/1), Lust (33/1), Kilgharrahs Love (33/1), Tara Na Ri (33/1), Captain Ciano (50/1), Coul Dore (50/1)

A big field but it's hard to escape the claims of SWEET BABY ZOU who was impressive at Gowran on Monday (pair clear). Ella's Gold is interesting on reappearance given the relative strength of her nursery form, with She's Ideal another to note.
