(5)

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Adam Caffrey| T: A McGuinness| OR: 59

Justified support to notch a belated first win on turf at Fairyhouse last month. Done no favours by the draw next time but underperformed when down the field in handicap won by Manastere latest.

Form: 804160

Rappell^b³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: J M Sheridan| T: P W Flynn| OR: 57

Ran better than for a while when nailed by one that came from further back in 15-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good, 6/1) 3 days ago. Enters calculations.

Form: 009062

(4)

Friars Gate²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jamie Powell| T: A Leahy| OR: 54

Showed more than previously in first-time cheekpieces and tongue strap when fourth of 15 here (1m) in June. However, failed to repeat that effort back here 9 days later.

Form: 00-9940

(11)

Undefeatable^b²⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Scott McCullagh| T: K Smith| OR: 52| BF

Showed improved form to get off the mark in comprehensive fashion at Sligo (6f) in August. Quickly got back on track when third at Dundalk in September but wasn't in the same form there the following month. Off since.

Notforalongtime^p²²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Rory Mulligan⁽⁵⁾| T: Laura Hourigan| OR: 51| D

6 years since his sole turf success but wasn't seen to best effect when eighth of 13 in handicap (16/1) at this course (1m, heavy) 22 days ago, forced wide home turn.

Form: 833858

Monastere¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: J Cleary⁽⁵⁾| T: K Thornton| OR: 50

Improved to get off the mark in 17-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 10 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Whatswrongnow, very much having run of race. Hiked up 9 lb but still respected as a last-time-out winner.

Form: 000-021

(10)

El Fontenaro²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Nathan Crosse| T: J P Fahey| OR: 48

Still a maiden but went close to capitalising on a career-low mark in 16-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Expected to be bang there again.

Form: 076-402

(6)

Snap Decision¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: D Duggan| OR: 48

Showed a bit more than previously switched to a handicap when sixth of 15 at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft, 50/1) 11 days ago, despite being left with lot to do following another tardy start.

Form: 0-0886

(14)

Jazzy Dancer^p³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Luke McAteer| T: W J Martin| OR: 47| D

Returned to winning ways when making all at Dundalk (7f) in February but not so good on turf the last twice.

(3)

Sovereign Banter^b,t³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Jack Kearney⁽³⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 47

Just 1-24 overall and was well held back on turf in race won by I'm Spartactus at Fairyhouse last month.

Form: 2-38420

(13)

Dc Diva²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Gavin Ryan| T: Leonard Flynn| OR: 45

Hinted at ability on her Dundalk debut in March 2024 but has shown little both starts for current yard. Into handicaps now with enough to prove.

Form: 6/00

(1)

Pick A Window³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽⁷⁾| T: S G O'Donnell| OR: 45

Showed more than previously upped in trip when fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 31 days ago, never nearer. Less exposed than most.

Form: 000-005

(17)

Snowballs^p1¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Megan Telford-Kelly⁽⁷⁾| T: W McCreery| OR: 44

Returned to form when fifth of 21 in handicap at Naas (5f, good, 18/1) 17 days ago, typically slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.

(16)

Hastily^p²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: Tom McGuinness| OR: 41| D

Long-standing maiden who followed a good run with a below-par one when sixth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good) 8 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. RESERVE.

Form: 203026

(12)

Gobi Star³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-10| J: Reserve 2| T: J Barcoe| OR: 40| D

Form: 700000

(7)

Bel Espoir⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Reserve 3| T: J Barcoe| OR: 40

Little in the way of worthwhile form. RESERVE.

Forecasts

Monastere (3/1), El Fontenaro (4/1), Rappell (9/2), Whatswrongnow (5/1), Undefeatable (8/1), Snowballs (10/1), Friars Gate (12/1), I'm Spartacus (12/1), Pick A Window (14/1), Snap Decision (14/1), Jazzy Dancer (16/1), Notforalongtime (16/1), Sovereign Banter (16/1), Dc Diva (20/1), Hastily (33/1), Bel Espoir (50/1), Gobi Star (50/1)

EL FONTENARO is still a maiden, but he went close to capitalising on a career-low mark at Fairyhouse last month and a reproduction of that form may well suffice. Monastere has been hiked up 9 lb for his Fairyhouse win but is respected as a last-time-out winner nonetheless, with Rappell another to consider after going close on his most recent outing.
