Four Blondes⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Sam Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 58| D

6/1

Expensive to follow, faring no better down in grade when tenth of 22 in handicap (13/2) at Navan (6f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Up in trip for polytrack debut.

Form: 405690

Simmering Seas^p,t¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Terry Casey⁽⁷⁾| T: Daniel Murphy| OR: 57

8/1

Yet to win but shaping up nicely for new yard, in the frame again at Navan (5f) last month. Easy to excuse latest effort at Cork on account of testing conditions and remains one to bear in mind.

Jazzit³⁶

11/2

Long-standing maiden but ran creditably when fourth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Laytown (6f) 36 days ago, despite being caught further back than ideal. Expected to be thereabouts once more.

Will Be King^t⁸³

Age: 10| Weight: 9-6| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: J C McConnell| OR: 49| C

100/1

Fairly useful performer at best whose last success came in 2020. Runner-up in classified company at Wolverhampton on reappearance after a 31-month layoff but hasn't matched that form in 3 starts since, including in first-time cheekpieces latest.

Form: 06/2050

Are You In Or Out^p⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Robert Whearty| T: Conor Maxwell| OR: 47| D

33/1

Enhanced her good record fresh when scoring at Fairyhouse on her return in May. More miss than hit since, though, failing to build on the promise of her last run when well held in 6f handicap at Navan last week. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 080040

Polanco^t²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: P F O'Donnell| OR: 49

11/4

Made more impact than previously when third of 14 in handicap at this course (1m, 33/1) 28 days ago, despite again not settling. Task is now to back that up.

Form: 0-00003

Fontaine Khaled⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Shane Foley| T: E & P Harty| OR: 48

14/1

Fared better with her sights lowered when third at Down Royal (7f) in May. Hasn't reproduced that form in 3 subsequent outings, though did shape a bit better than the distance beaten suggests at the Curragh on most recent outing.

Form: 083750

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Shay Wallace⁽⁷⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 45

Forecasts

Polanco (11/4), Boston Max (9/2), Jazzit (11/2), Four Blondes (6/1), Battleforsupremacy (7/1), Lady Landhort (8/1), Simmering Seas (8/1), Dervo Annie (8/1), Hot To Foxtrot (12/1), Fontaine Khaled (14/1), Thumama Sands (33/1), Are You In Or Out (33/1), The Bear Trap (33/1), Alandownunder (66/1), Whatsin The Stars (100/1), Will Be King (100/1)

BOSTON MAX has been holding his form notably well since registering back-to-back wins in the spring, so he appeals as a very solid option. Long-standing maiden Jazzit and Simmering Seas head up the opposition.
