Age: 6|  Weight: 10-0| J: Terry Casey(7)| T: J G Coogan| OR:  79| D
Won over 6f at Cork last September and made frame on final 2 starts that season. Yet to fire in 2 starts this year but takes a marked drop in grade here.

Age: 5|  Weight: 9-13| J: Reese Holohan(7)| T: M Fahey| OR:  78| BF| D
Made frame on 3 occasions this season, shaping as if still in good form when fourth of 13 in handicap (3/1) at Listowel (6.3f, good) 7 days ago. Looks sure to go well again.

Age: 3|  Weight: 10-4| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR:  84| BF| D
Made the frame on both starts last year and, after 5 months off, justified strong support when comfortably landing 8-runner maiden at Dundalk in April. Easy to excuse his handicap debut at Naas last month and well worth another chance equipped with a tongue tie. Engaged 5.30 Fairyhouse Friday.

Age: 4|  Weight: 9-10| J: J M Sheridan| T: D Hogan| OR:  75
Sole success came when blinkered at Limerick last summer. Made the frame twice this season but hasn't looked the most resolute at times. Has a bit to prove at present.

Has a great record on the all-weather at Dundalk, winning twice there this year already. Below form fifth at same course (5f, 10/1) 12 days ago. Seems summed up by mark at present.

Greek Flower46
Age: 7|  Weight: 9-7| J: Ronan Whelan| T: J Feane| OR:  72| C| D
Course winner who's on long losing run. Wasn't seen to best effect when sixth of 11 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft, 9/2) in April after meeting some trouble. Returns to sprinting and may need some luck given her run style.

Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. 4/1, not seen to best effect when seventh of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (6.3f, good to soft) 4 days ago, not ideally placed. Visor back on here.

Nouvel Espoir22
Age: 6|  Weight: 8-13| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J Barcoe| OR:  64| CD
Successful at Cork last summer. 13/2, shaped as if still in good form when third of 10 in handicap here (5f, good to soft) 22 days ago though was left with a lot to do. Course winner who's difficult to win with but has a good record with McMonagle in the saddle.

Forecasts

Ocean's Breath (9/4), Nouvel Espoir (11/2), I Bid You Ajou (6/1), Collective Power (13/2), Greek Flower (15/2), Jon Riggens (8/1), Aurora Nova (8/1), Clonmacash (12/1), Alfred Tennyson (33/1), Gerrit's Gem (33/1)

Verdict

The lightly-raced OCEAN'S BREATH represents a yard in good nick and can open his account in handicaps if taking up this engagement. Collective Power can build on his last effort from a handy mark, while Nouvel Espoir can finish ahead of I Bid You Ajou in the fight for third.
