9/1

Well on top at the finish when resuming winning ways here (1m) early this month. Pulled too hard next time but type to bounce back returned to this venue.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽²⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 68

100/1

Back on the Flat having not taken to hurdling but was hardly in good form when seen in this sphere.

Form: 06-4860

Hassaniya^p⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁴⁾| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 68

11/2

Quickly got back on the up with a promising second under this rider at Punchestown on Tuesday so is one to bear in mind off the same mark with the return to further promising to suit.

Guinelot^h³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Max Popan⁽⁷⁾| T: K J Condon| OR: 67

20/1

Narrow winner of a weak maiden at Ballinrobe and was always behind on handicap bow at the Curragh.

Form: 5410

Navajo Point¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Harnett| T: M Hassett| OR: 62| C

14/1

Low-mileage 4-y-o who found some improvement when off the mark in big field over 1m here early this month, responding well having been under pressure a fair way out. Easy to forgive next run and this stiffer test should prove to be much more suitable.

Queen Aethelflaed⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Orla Tynan⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 62| C

15/2

Built on previous promise when winning here (1m) in June before shaping well at Leopardstown. However, her next 2 starts suggest she has gone off the boil.

Form: 021400

Make The Tide¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Jack Kearney| T: W McCreery| OR: 64| BF

11/1

Much improved to get off the mark in 16-runner event at Navan and backed that up with a good second under a penalty in another big-field handicap there 3 days later. That form is looking strong so she's not taken lightly.

Form: 669012

Sunrise Angel²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 64

7/1

Back to form when a clear-cut winner under this rider at Cork 3 weeks ago, justifying good support in the process. Another career best probably required off 9 lb higher, though.

Form: 4-80661

Cladach¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Shay Wallace⁽⁷⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 63

15/8

Not yet fully exposed and starting to go the right way, backing up his third here (7f) with a second at Galway 11 days ago, shaping as if this stiffer test will suit.

Form: 490832

Chirac²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J Cleary| T: J Feane| OR: 62| BF| C

14/1

Justified support here (7f) in April but beaten favourite on all 4 starts since and he hasn't been shaping as if in need of this longer trip.

Form: 416244

Miss Crinshawn^p1²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Keithen Kennedy| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 57

20/1

Maiden who hit the frame first 5 starts this season. However, not in same form tried over a variety of trips since and headgear now applied.

Form: 424370

Roaming Coyote⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁴⁾| T: Kevin Coleman| OR: 61| BF

10/1

Well backed when showing big improvement to finish second to a subsequent winner on his handicap bow over C&D in June, pulling clear of the rest. Shaped as if amiss later that month and off since (has been gelded). No surprise if he bounced back.

Form: 0-7620

Cosmic Funk^p¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Conor Cusack⁽⁷⁾| T: P J F Murphy| OR: 60

20/1

Yet to win a race but he's pretty consistent, running right up to his best when fourth here (1m) 18 days ago.

Form: 275564

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Nicola Burns⁽²⁾| T: R P Burns| OR: 51| C| D

Latest win at Cork in May off 2 lb higher but hasn't been at best of late.

Forecasts

Cladach (15/8), Hassaniya (11/2), Moyassr (11/2), Sunrise Angel (7/1), Queen Aethelflaed (15/2), Java Wood (9/1), Roaming Coyote (10/1), Maeve Brennan (10/1), Make The Tide (11/1), Navajo Point (14/1), Chirac (14/1), Cosmic Funk (20/1), Guinelot (20/1), Miss Crinshawn (20/1), Deuteronomy (50/1), Pepper Noir (100/1)

ROAMING COYOTE is worth another chance to confirm his handicap-debut promise over C&D when beaten only by a useful sort. This does look competitive, though, with Make The Tide and Navajo Point heading the dangers.
