Highlander Addict²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Alan Persse⁽⁵⁾| T: P J Flynn

125/1

Seen to good effect when making all at Wexford on his fifth start in bumpers. Switched to the Flat next time, didn't go with much promise when eighth of 9 in maiden at Ballinrobe (13f) 23 days ago.

Form: 8

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld

100/1

Made some appeal on paper starting off in a bumper, but was never a threat when tenth of 13 at Roscommon 8 days ago. This should reveal more on his Flat debut.

Gliondar⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien

4/11

Son of Romanised who shaped very well on debut when staying on for second in 13-runner maiden at the Curragh (1m) in June, the winner scoring again next time. Leading contender with improvement to come (has been gelded).

7/2

Has made the frame in 6 of his 7 starts so far, in first-time cheekpieces when second of 10 in maiden at Dundalk (1m) last month. Can make his presence felt back up in trip.

Lord Darragh⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Luke McAteer| T: Rory Devine

33/1

Was very green making his first start but offered something to work on when sixth of 13 in maiden at the Curragh (1m) in June, nearest at the finish (Gliondar ahead in second). Task is now to build on that run.

One Cool County³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Conor Cusack⁽⁷⁾| T: P J F Murphy

250/1

Very much needed the experience first time up when well-beaten sixth of 8 in maiden at Killarney (11.3f) 30 days ago, very slowly away. Likely to need more time.

Rock Of Claremont^p1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Lee| T: A Oliver

6/1

Well-related son of Profitable who showed more than on debut when third of 10 in maiden at Dundalk (1m) a month ago (Karrygrant ahead in second). Cheekpieces now reached for.

Form: 53

Yogini^b,t³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Gavin Ryan| T: Donnacha O'Brien

18/1

Switched to blinkers for his second outing, took a step forward when beaten only by a major improver in 8-runner maiden at Killarney (11.3f) last month. Open to further progress.

Form: 62

Blue Orquidea¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Alan Casey⁽⁷⁾| T: D Hogan

250/1

In need of the experience for Michael J. Browne on debut, but went backwards from that effort for new yard when last of 13 in maiden at this course (1m) 18 days ago.

Form: 50

Salamina

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien

14/1

Sottsass filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner War Supremo. Dam, placed at 1¼m-2m, closely related to smart 1½m winner (stayed 15.5f) Glaring. One to note on debut for much-respected connections.

28/1

Has progressed with each of her 3 starts, staying-on third of 7 in maiden at the Curragh (9f) 24 days ago. Promises to be suited by this slightly longer trip.

Forecasts

Gliondar (4/11), Karrygrant (7/2), Rock Of Claremont (6/1), Xirivella (12/1), Salamina (14/1), Jumpingthegun (16/1), Yogini (18/1), Socratea (20/1), Storm Petrel (28/1), Lord Darragh (33/1), Lonelyharbourwall (100/1), Highlander Addict (125/1), Blue Orquidea (250/1), One Cool County (250/1), Believe Again (300/1)

GLIONDAR made a promising start when runner-up at the Curragh in June, closing all the way to the line, so he is taken to go one better as he moves up in trip. Karrygrant has run well when placed on his last 2 outings and could be the main danger, ahead of Socratea.
