Green Moon gelding. Dam maiden pointer. A watching brief is the percentage call on debut.

Form:

Martymill^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Miss A B O'Connor| T: A McCann

15/8

Improved effort when second of 10 in bumper at Listowel (2½m, good to soft) in June. Failed to back that up when sixth at Galway last week but this is less competitive.

Form: 46-626

Tommy's Ticket¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr J Dunne⁽⁷⁾| T: C Timmons

13/2

Twice-raced maiden. 6/1 and hooded first time, third of 13 in bumper at Ballinrobe (2m, good) 19 days ago. Up in trip.

Form: 63

Vargas²⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr H C Swan| T: G Elliott

14/1

Half-brother to 5 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser The Four Sixes and fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Innovated. Dam (h93) 2m hurdle winner. With a top yard for his Rules career but pulled up both starts in points in 2025. The betting should help guide to expectations.

Form: P/P-

Culldoo⁹³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins| BF

13/8

6/4, promise when third of 9 in bumper at this course (2¼m, good) on debut 93 days ago. Should take plenty of beating.

Form: 3

Loves A Laugh²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Miss H Ross⁽⁷⁾| T: S R B Crawford

7/2

25/1, offered something to work on when third of 10 in bumper at this course (19f, good) on debut 26 days ago. May do better.

Form: 3

Forecasts

Culldoo (13/8), Martymill (15/8), Loves A Laugh (7/2), Tommy's Ticket (13/2), Vargas (14/1), Greenmeansgo (125/1)

This looks a good chance for CULLDOO to build on her debut third here in the spring. Stuart Crawford's Loves A Laugh also started her career by finishing third in a course bumper and is second choice ahead of Martymill, who may find this easier than a big-field race at Galway last week.
