Divine Believer⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Colin Keane| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 63

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable seventh of 13 on handicap debut at the Curragh (1m, heavy) in April but last of 8 at Leopardstown (1½m, good) since. Back down in trip with Colin Keane booked.

Form: 00778

Mare Crisium¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Max Popan⁽¹⁰⁾| T: K J Condon| OR: 63

25/1

Hasn't gone on from debut so far, including last of 9 in claimer at Fairyhouse (1¼m, good) 12 days ago, weakening quickly. Makes handicap debut with something to prove.

Aquilla Star³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: J C McConnell| OR: 62

12/1

Ended her 2-y-o campaign with an improved second of 15 in nursery at Galway (7f, heavy) in October. Shaped as if needing the run when seventh of 10 in handicap at Down Royal (10.4f, soft, 28/1) 8 months later. Can make more of an impact now.

Form: 0072-7

Spring Sprinter²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ben Coen| T: A Slattery| OR: 61

Nephin Mountain³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Terry Casey⁽⁷⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 51

11/2

18/1, 14 lengths fifth of 7 in handicap at Down Royal (13f, good) just 3 days ago. This shorter trip is more suitable but still hard to be confident.

Form: 048405

Curious Jane^p1³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Nathan Crosse| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 48

18/1

Showed little in 3 maidens and down the field on 9f Leopardstown handicap debut 32 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to spark improvement.

Form: 0-009

Connova²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Chris Hayes| T: S Lavery| OR: 45

5/6

Has offered encouragement when reaching the frame in both handicaps, latterly third of 14 over C&D (good to soft, 8/1) 28 days ago. Gets the vote.

Form: 600-43

(7)

Music And Song^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Rory Mulligan⁽⁵⁾| T: Thomas Dowling| OR: 40

14/1

Creditable fifth of 9 in claimer (80/1) at Fairyhouse (1¼m, good) 12 days ago but has something to find from out of the weights now back in a handicap.

Forecasts

Connova (5/6), Private Larry (5/2), Divine Believer (4/1), Nephin Mountain (11/2), John La Bear (13/2), Aquilla Star (12/1), Six Wings (12/1), Music And Song (14/1), Spring Sprinter (16/1), Werifesteria (16/1), Curious Jane (18/1), Mare Crisium (25/1), Coolshine (50/1)

CONNOVA has shaped well in both handicaps, including here, and is taken to get off the mark under Colin Hayes. Bellewstown winner Private Larry was an encouraging third over hurdles at Killarney at the end of last week and is a likely threat if over those exertions. Aquilla Star and John La Bear should strip fitter with reappearance runs behind them and can also play a part.
