Didn't really fire in Britain for David Simcock last year and little promise in 2 starts for current yard in June, last of 15 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f) on latest outing.

Successful over 6f here last spring and best effort this season when runner-up over C&D in June. Hasn't quite been in the same form last 3 starts, mid-field at the Curragh 16 days ago, but he's on a handy mark back down in grade.

Fairly useful sprinter at best but his form has gone the wrong way, absent 12 months prior to this season and failing to come on for his reappearance when down the field at Navan (6f) 23 days ago.

Has benefited from the drop to 5f the last twice, in first-time visor when second of 11 in handicap at Down Royal 17 days ago. Merits consideration with more still to offer over this trip.

Has made the frame 3 times this season, soon leaving behind a lesser effort dropped back to 5f when never-nearer third of 11 at Down Royal 17 days ago (½ length behind Dandy Land). Could be ready to open her account.

After 6 months off ahead of first start since leaving Michael Butler, ran up to her best when rallying for fourth in 11-runner handicap at Down Royal 17 days ago. Task is now to build on latest effort kept at this trip.

Showed improved form dropped back to 6f when opening account at Sligo (6f) a year ago. Possibly needed the run after 9 months off when well held at Limerick (6.7f) 23 days ago and he's now back down to his winning mark. First start at 5f.

Has returned to form last 2 starts, racing from 6 lb out of the handicap but still getting off the mark in 10-runner contest at Navan 23 days ago. Didn't have much in hand that day, though, so will need to find more again.

Off the mark for the season over this C&D in June, scoring by ½ length from Tawaazon. Respectable efforts both starts since, fifth of 19 at Cork 10 days ago, and she enters calculations back at this venue.

Long-standing maiden who has finished down the field in her 3 races this year, though helped force the pace when tenth of 14 in handicap at Sligo (6.3f) in May on latest outing. Drops back in trip with blinkers left off.

Successful 3 times at Navan last year but has struggled for form in 4 outings this season. Others more persuasive at present despite her reduced mark.

Sole success came in a Bellewstown handicap (5f, heavy) in October. In good heart with a trio of in-frame efforts to start this season, before not getting a clear run when mid-field at Bellewstown a month ago. Could bounce back.

Some encouragement in maidens but hasn't managed to improve in handicaps, though again wasn't seen to best effect (met trouble) when tenth of 16 at Fairyhouse (6f) last time. Tongue strap refitted with blinkers added.

Without a victory but not discredited on his last 3 outings, reverting to making the running when fifth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (7f) 9 days ago. Makes only second start over the minimum trip (placed on other occasion).

Losing run is mounting up but has been in decent nick this season, quickly refitted with tongue strap when fifth of 17 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f) last month. Still looks vulnerable for win purposes, though.

Forecasts

Jackandthefox (4/1), Steel Magnolia (5/1), Tawaazon (7/1), Dandy Land (15/2), Platino Bianco (15/2), Another Nice'day (15/2), Hot To Foxtrot (10/1), Practical Move (12/1), Livingston Range (16/1), Step Back In Time (18/1), Caffu Zafeen (20/1), Undefeatable (20/1), Luminessa (28/1), Reinforce (40/1), Star Allure (66/1)

Verdict

HOT TO FOXTROT wasted no time getting back to her best when staying on for third at Down Royal last month and, after only 3 starts over 5f, she can build on that effort to get off the mark. She is taken to reverse the form with Dandy Land from when the pair met 17 days ago, while Platino Bianco could also be in the mix.

  2. Dandy Land15/2
