Heart Of Eternity^b¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: J M Sheridan| T: D Hogan| OR: 60

66/1

Made the frame all 3 starts for Charlie Appleby but yet to fire for her current yard, well beaten again back from 4 months off at Leopardstown (1m) a fortnight ago.

I'm Spartacus¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Adam Caffrey| T: A McGuinness| OR: 58| D

9/1

Justified support to notch a belated first win on turf at Fairyhouse last month. Well below that form all 3 starts since but was second in this in 2024.

Form: 041604

Rosato⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁵⁾| T: C Weld| OR: 54| D

8/1

No impact all 3 starts this year, though shaped better than the bare result when seventh of 16 at Fairyhouse 6 weeks ago, faring best of those held up in a race where nothing really got involved from behind. Considered from a much-reduced mark.

Form: 538-907

(5)

El Fontenaro¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Ronan Whelan| T: J P Fahey| OR: 53

10/3

Still a maiden but has gone close the last twice, pulling clear of the rest (a few of these behind) at Limerick a fortnight ago. Nudged back up 5 lb but got to be considered dropped to 6f.

Form: 76-4022

(19)

Whatswrongnow⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: Batt Burke| OR: 51| BF

13/2

Long-standing maiden not disgraced the last twice but others got to be preferred for the win.

Form: 302635

Captain Ciano^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: James Ryan| T: T G McCourt| OR: 50

33/1

Yet to win but has run to a fair level a couple of times in handicaps. Out of sorts at present, though. Cheekpieces back on for his first go sprinting.

Form: 000980

Jazzit^p³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Sadhbh Tormey⁽⁷⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 50

16/1

Maiden not beaten far by Platino Bianco at Naas last time but he looks better on the all-weather.

Form: 330588

Platino Bianco^t,v²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Robert Whearty| T: Conor Maxwell| OR: 50| D

11/1

Won a similar big-field event at Naas last month and shaped better than the bare result (raced wide) at Bellewstown 3 weeks ago. One to consider back up in trip.

Form: 806015

Jampa Ling¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Paddy Harnett⁽⁵⁾| T: K P Cotter| OR: 53| D

22/1

Good third in a similar event at Fairyhouse last month but well held twice since and hunt for a first win likely to continue.

Form: 596309

(1)

Alandownunder^b²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: K P Cotter| OR: 52

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden who failed to improve in first-time blinkers at Roscommon (7.4f) last time and needs this return to sprinting to spark improvement.

Form: 989-099

(2)

The Cosy Corner¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Chris Hayes| T: P Magee| OR: 52

22/1

Well beaten all 4 starts, including on handicap debut/return for new yard at Navan recently.

Form: 009-0

(17)

Dubai Opulence¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Colin Keane| T: N Lupini| OR: 51

4/1

Was 5 lb out of the weights but made more impact than previously when fourth in 15-runner Navan (6f) handicap a fortnight ago. That looked a stronger race than this one so he could get involved if backing that performance up.

Form: 89-004

(21)

Auguste Gusteau¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Ben Coen| T: M A Cahill| OR: 50

20/1

Well held all 4 starts in maidens. Needs improvement now handicapping.

Form: 6797

(8)

Love Bomb¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 50

14/1

Made a winning handicap debut at Down Royal last autumn but has struggled since and isn't one to be interested in at present unless there is confidence behind her in the betting.

Form: 470808

(15)

Sovereign Banter^b,t¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 45| D

33/1

Better on all-weather, going close at Dundalk in April. Well beaten twice since back on turf.

Form: 384200

Hastily^p⁴²

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

11/1

Won this last year (good record at Cork) but has completely lost her way.

Form: 209-000

(6)

Snowballs⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Leigh Roche| T: W McCreery| OR: 41

28/1

One of his better runs at Down Royal last week although consistency is far from his forte and it'll be a weak race he wins if he ever does.

Form: 878598

(20)

Niobite³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Alan Persse⁽⁵⁾| T: P J Flynn| OR: 45

50/1

Well held in maidens but low-grade handicaps could be more his thing.

Form: 000

You Smiled^t²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Andrew Slattery| T: A Slattery| OR: 42

50/1

Little impact in 4 starts, including on handicap debut at Bellewstown 3 weeks ago.

EL FONTENARO is in good form and could finally open her account. Rosato caught the eye at Fairyhouse 6 weeks ago and is feared along with Dubai Opulence and Platino Bianco.
