7/4, didn't need to improve to get off the mark at the tenth time of asking in 4-runner novice at Chester (7f, soft) 11 days ago. More on his plate back in a handicap but Colin Keane takes the ride.

Eleven runs since last win in 2025. 20/1, not seen to best effect (not clear run) when bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Laytown (7f) 12 days ago. Being eased another 3 lb can only help.

Recorded back-to-back nursery wins over 6f last year. Right back to his best when ½-length second at Fairyhouse (6f, good to soft) in June and given a break since a lesser run at the Curragh at the end of that month.

Plenty of creditable efforts in defeats but latest Cork effort wasn't one of them. On the back of that he has a first-time visor added to his regular tongue tie.

Won on successive days at this meeting last year (including this race) and could be set to repeat the feat having cashed in on a reduced mark here on Monday, albeit he was helped by the rider of the runner-up easing up prematurely when the result was still in the balance. Also took this in 2023.

Course winner but rather in and out this season and ran below form when seventh of 12 at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft) 22 days ago.

Seventeen runs since last win in 2024 but runner-up over 6f here in May and arrives on the back of a good third of 12 at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Enters calculations.

Came as close to ending his lengthy losing run as he has in a long time when close third in 7f Galway handicap in August. Backed that up with a respectable second of 9 at Chester (7.6f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Considered for McGuinness.

Third in a maiden at Galway last autumn and another promising effort there when fourth of 11 on 7f handicap debut/reappearance 14 days ago. Entitled to come on for that.

Yet to win but several good efforts this season, including when second at Leopardstown in June and when fifth here on Monday. Has a race in him.

Forecasts

Dragon Of Malta (10/3), La La Lucrative (7/2), Apache Outlaw (9/2), Alissam (11/2), Green Kite (8/1), Gavoo (8/1), Mercurial (9/1), She's Too Kool (12/1), Go Athletico (12/1), Nakamura (14/1), Mytimetoshine (20/1), Tolebi (40/1), Goofy Gander (66/1)

Verdict

Perhaps this is the day APACHE OUTLAW finally snaps his losing run. Like the selection, Mercurial hasn't tasted success since 2024 but he's recorded 2 good placed efforts in his last 3 starts. Last year's winner Dragon of Malta is once again bidding for successive victories, and a third in this race in 4 years, having scored here on Monday.
