5/1
Fairly useful winning hurdler who finished third behind a subsequent winner in a C&D maiden in May. Disappointed in 2 starts since hanging left throughout when fourth at Ballinrobe (9.7f) 3 weeks ago. Return to 1m may help but he does need to settle better.

Cheap purchase who showed little in 4 starts over hurdles during 2024. Off 2 years prior coming in last of 6 on Flat debut at Down Royal (13f) 24 days ago and he ought to be sharper with that run under his belt.

Discouraging start over hurdles/bumper and went with little short-term encouragement starting out in this sphere when sixth of 10 in a Ballinrobe maiden (9.7f) 3 weeks ago.

Best effort in maidens when sixth of 15 in maiden at Limerick in April and will be better off once tackling handicaps. Visor on 1st time.

Placed 3 of first 4 starts this year on all-weather and fared much better than he had on turf debut when finishing fourth in a C&D maiden 63 days ago (Coul Dreamer placed third). Booking of Oisin Murphy catches the eye and a repeat gives him claims.

6/4
Returned from 8 months off with a respectable second at Dundalk (1m) in March but an aggressive ride combined with step up in trip appeared his undoing when fifth of 17 in a Gowran maiden (9.6f) in April. Tongue strap goes on back at this shorter trip and better anticipated.

5/1
Lightly-raced filly who made the frame in pair of 7f maidens in the autumn and had heavy ground as a possible excuse when fifth of 15 at Gowran (7f) in October. Not discounted if ready to roll after 8 months off.

Forecasts

Wild Sapphire (6/4), Tyraxes (3/1), Dolly Hello (5/1), Coul Dreamer (5/1), Sron Na Caise (6/1), Desert Swing (25/1), Mischievous Fun (80/1), Medadthebookie (125/1)

Verdict

WILD SAPPHIRE found the combination of a step up in trip/aggressive ride his undoing when fifth in a Gowran maiden in April and back at 1m with a tongue strap added, he's fancied to be seen in a much better light returning from 3 months off. Tyraxes under Oisin Murphy, Dolly Hello and Coul Dreamer are others holding claims.
