Delta^t³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-7| J: J J Slevin| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 93| BF

3/1

Wasted what had looked a good opportunity when second of 5 in minor event at Leopardstown (15f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Bit to prove back in handicap company.

Form: 315-402

Filey Bay^t¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-3| J: Simon Torrens| T: E Mullins| OR: 89| CD

6/1

Maiden winner at this meeting in 2023 and proved better than ever to land a gamble at Galway in July 2025. Ran no sort of race in latest renewal of that race recently but is entitled to strip fitter given that was his first run for 10 months.

Form: 4/0106-0

Clear Quartz¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: Joseph Harnett⁽⁷⁾| T: M Fahey| OR: 87

10/1

Useful performance to win at Roscommon (1½m) in September. Promising reappearance at Leopardstown in June but below that level both starts since, including upped to this trip last time. Stamina for 2m remains a question mark.

Form: 138-280

Plontier^p,t¹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 9-11| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁷⁾| T: T O'Brien| OR: 83

10/1

Ran much better than he had in a claimer on return fitted with first-time tongue strap and cheekpieces combination when twelfth of 20 in handicap at Galway (17f, good to soft) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. However, looks no more than averagely treated at present.

Form: 00/60-20

Spasiba⁵⁸⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Ben Coen| T: W P Mullins| OR: 83| D

5/2

Maiden winner on the level and over hurdles. Pulled up over hurdles when last seen in January 2025 but is well treated on old form reverting to this sphere and lengthy absence not much of a concern given his yard.

Zoffman^p⁶⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Gary Carroll| T: N Meade| OR: 75| D

9/2

Seventeen runs since last win in 2022 and ran poorly at Fairyhouse (1¾m, good to soft) on latest start in June. Headgear back on after a break but something to prove.

Form: 070-680

(4)

Way Down South¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: G Scott| OR: 74

20/1

Fair hurdler/chaser who seems to have been brought along with handicaps in mind in this sphere, finishing last of 6 in minor event at Galway (1¾m, soft, 40/1) 15 days ago. Improvement needed.

Form: 9576

Miss Gitana^t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: Joseph Murray| OR: 63| CD

11/2

C&D winner who made more impact than previously this season when third of 9 in handicap at Leopardstown (15f, good to firm) 23 days ago, albeit having the run of things. Likely to find life tougher in this grade from 4 lb out of the weights, though.

Form: 6-09803

Forecasts

Dream On Baby (7/4), Delta (9/4), Spasiba (11/4), Filey Bay (4/1), Plontier (8/1), Clear Quartz (10/1), Miss Gitana (10/1), Way Down South (14/1), Zoffman (16/1)

SPASIBA was pulled up over hurdles when last seen in January last year but is well treated on old form reverting to this code and his top yard has few peers when it comes to getting horses ready after long absences, so he earns the vote. Dream On Baby was a wide margin winner of a C&D maiden on Thursday and has to be feared contesting her first handicap in this sphere under a 7 lb penalty. Filey Bay is entitled to strip fitter for his comeback and may fill the places.
