2/1

Second success of season when winning 17-runner handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good to firm) in a first-time visor under Colin Keane this month. Caught too far back when seventh of 17 at Cork (1m, good) since and can be treated as if still in form. Player with Keane riding again.

Fared better than previously this season when 1¼ lengths sixth of 17 to Launch Time in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago, running on. Needs to build on that now.

Forecasts

Launch Time (2/1), Draiocht (4/1), Rampage (11/2), La Campanella (7/1), Brains (10/1), Wegotogether (11/1), Jazz Dreamers (12/1), Lohengrin (16/1), Hale Bopp (18/1), Distillate (20/1), Wellwhatshappenin (22/1), Suerte (22/1), Tullyesker (33/1), Bang Po (40/1), Pettus Bridge (50/1), Heart Of Eternity (66/1)

LAUNCH TIME had an excuse at Cork and is given another chance to build on his Leopardstown success. Draiocht was third in that Leopardstown contest and may provide the chief threat ahead of La Campanella and Distillate, who hails from the in-form Ado McGuinness yard.
