Second success of season when winning 17-runner handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good to firm) in a first-time visor (retained) 8 days ago. Only 4 lb higher and Colin Keane retains the ride. Respected.

Half Cut^p1,t1²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A Mullins| OR: 55

80/1

Well held in maidens but handicaps provide him with a more realistic chance. Wears first-time cheekpieces and tongue tie combination. Worth a look in the betting.

James Henry³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Chris Hayes| T: E McCarthy| OR: 54

28/1

Unreliable sort. Fifteen runs since last win in 2024. Tongue strap on first time (off now), tenth of 13 in handicap (40/1) at Killarney (1m, good) 30 days ago.

Form: 783-300

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 60

14/1

Off the mark in first-time cheekpieces in maiden at Ballinrobe (9.5f) in May. Ran well when fourth at Bellewstown on penultimate start but needs to bounce back from a below-par effort in Killarney claimer. Blinkers off, cheekpieces back on.

Winner at Limerick in June. Respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Galway (7f, good to soft, 16/1) 18 days ago. Enters calculations.

Dawn Flame^p,t²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: P W Flynn| OR: 59| D

12/1

Winner at Dundalk in January and back in form of late, finishing very good third of 14 in handicap (4/1) at Gowran (7f, good to firm) 20 days ago. His strength at the finish on that occasion suggests this return to 1m will suit. Considered under McMonagle.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrew Slattery| T: A Slattery| OR: 59

80/1

Offered something to work on when finishing mid-field in a trio of maidens but ran poorly switched to handicap company at Dundalk 33 days ago. Has a first-time tongue tie added on the back of that.

Thompson Gunner^b,t²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁵⁾| T: Cian Hughes| OR: 51

11/1

Won at Dundalk in January. Below best on next 2 starts there but bounced back to form after 5 months off/equipped with visor/tongue tie when finishing a creditable third in handicap at Gowran (9.5f) on Wednesday. Blinkers go back on now.

Form: 44-1503

Morning Approach²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 48| D

22/1

Twenty runs since last win in 2024. 10/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Gowran (9.5f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Billy Lee is back on board but others are still preferred.

Borora Aura^t⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Terry Casey⁽⁷⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 52

25/1

Modest maiden. Respectable sixth of 14 in claimer at Sligo (10.5f, good to soft, 22/1) 9 days ago. Back down in trip. More needed if she's to come out on top.

Peig Sayers²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: Miss H McLoughlin| OR: 44

33/1

Bit of promise in maidens but not much real encouragement in 4 handicaps this season. Work to do if she's to feature.

Form: 00-0080

Winston's Promise^h1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Luke McAteer| T: L P Cusack| OR: 50

No impact of any of his 3 starts in maidens. Wears first-time hood now handicapping. Could only consider if backed.

Lorr's Girl^b,t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: R Sweeney| OR: 40| BF| C

9/1

Not the most straightforward and hasn't been showing enough this year to suggest a second course success is likely to arrive this evening.

Form: 408-009

Mullacash Buzz^p,t²³

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Rory Mulligan⁽⁵⁾| T: Thomas Dowling| OR: 40| D

20/1

Twenty five runs since last win in 2023 but arrives on the back of creditable thirds at Bellewstown and Naas (both 1m) last month. Did well to last as long as he did at the latter considering he helped to force a strong pace. Merits consideration.

Leannespour²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Declan McDonogh| T: E Lynam| OR: 45

7/1

Promising type. 33/1, did well under the circumstances when fourth of 16 on handicap debut at Gowran (7f, good to firm) 20 days ago, left with too much to do. Will stay 1m and leading claims with further improvement likely.

Form: 00-04

Starflow^b1,t⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Conor Cusack⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 45

25/1

Little impression in 3 maidens and fared no better switched to handicap company at Gowran in June. Still early days but first-time blinkers need to spark improvement back from 11 weeks off.

Reponse Finale²^{(ex 7)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Robert Whearty| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 42

11/8

Ended time with Liam Casey with an encouraging fourth at Fairyhouse (6f) in June and having justified support, built on that in no uncertain terms to make a winning stable debut at Gowran (9.5f) on Wednesday. Ought to take some stopping with a run here. RESERVE.

Forecasts

Reponse Finale (11/8), Launch Time (4/1), Leannespour (7/1), Lorr's Girl (9/1), Thompson Gunner (11/1), Dawn Flame (12/1), Glamazon (14/1), Mullacash Buzz (20/1), Morning Approach (22/1), Starflow (25/1), Borora Aura (25/1), Imnotleavinyou (25/1), Sheamus Seimhiu (25/1), Jazz Dreamers (25/1), James Henry (28/1), Peig Sayers (33/1), Winston's Promise (66/1), Half Cut (80/1), Mountain Memory (80/1)

Most of these are exposed which makes LEANNESPOUR all the more interesting on the back of her promising handicap debut fourth at Gowran 3 weeks ago. The return to 1m will suit recent Gowran third Dawn Flame who is second choice with Dylan Browne McMonagle taking the reins again. Mullacash Buzz and last week's Leopardstown scorer Launch Time also make the shortlist, whilst Reponse Finale would also be very interesting if lining up.
