Walhaan²⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-3| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁵⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 73| CD

16/1

Veteran who has 4 C&D wins to his name and ran a respectable third back from a break at this course in September. Ran poorly on turf last time. Return to this venue will suit but needs to rediscover the level of form he was showing last winter.

Form: 380030

Flying Fortress^b¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁵⁾| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 70

11/1

In frame at Roscommon in June and August. Has now dropped below last winning mark for in-form yard and no surprise were he to fare better now down in grade and back up in trip, though the market is likely to prove the best guide as to expectations.

Form: 082400

Darkdeserthighway^b²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Colin Keane| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 69| C

14/1

Has run well on several occasions this year but remains without a win since last October and recent performances have been uninspiring. Booking of Keane catches the eye but others preferred unless the market was to suddenly speak firmly in her favour.

Form: 624700

Femme Beauty^t⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Danny O'Leary⁽¹⁰⁾| T: Gerard O'Leary| OR: 73| D

11/2

Clearly takes her racing well, following on from her 2 wins for Ken Condon (first over C&D) with victory in 1¼m Newmarket handicap in August. Good third at Clonmel last time and respected back up in trip.

Form: 143113

No More Porter^p,t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: James Ryan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 67

10/1

Is being kept busy and, though he has been placed 5 times in 2026, his losing sequence continues to mount up, with his recent efforts suggesting he might have gone off the boil for the time being.

Form: 045757

Echinacea^p⁷²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Luke McAteer| T: N C Kelly| OR: 66

8/1

Good efforts when runner-up at this course last 2 starts, chasing home Sir Callisto in 1½m event in April on latest. Has been a bit disappointing over hurdles since, but returns to this sphere off a workable mark. Respected.

Form: 22-6922

(2)

Eastern Peace^p²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Lee| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 65| CD

9/4

C&D winner late in 2025. Cheekpieces on when a good staying-on third of 14 in handicap at Punchestown (9f, good) in September and when 2¾ lengths fourth of 14 to Enchanted Lady back at this course last time. Billy Lee now takes over and bold bid anticipated.

Form: 305734

Sherekiya^t1³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld| OR: 67

13/2

Fair filly who posted her best effort when a close third in a 1m handicap at the Curragh in August. Ran poorly last time and now makes all-weather debut in a first-time tongue strap applied, with the step up in trip likely to suit on pedigree.

Form: 54-7386

Limestone Red^p⁴⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Rory Cleary| T: T Collins| OR: 62| CD

16/1

C&D winner in January. Some creditable efforts since and wasn't seen to best effect last time. Return to this surface will suit but probably needs some respite from the handicapper.

Form: 882357

Cozone¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: Robbie Colgan| T: M J Smith| OR: 60| C

33/1

In good form over hurdles in first half of the year, scoring at Downpatrick in June. Hasn't offered much on last 4 outings on the Flat, though.

Form: 86/8000

(8)

Speckled Meadow¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: Robyn Donaghue-Leahy⁽⁷⁾| T: Don Browne| OR: 60| D

8/1

Without a win this year but ran well when beaten only by an improver in 11-runner handicap at Naas (10.5f) in October. Shaped as if back in form at Punchestown last time. Well treated on turf efforts now back on all-weather and must be considered even if she's not quite as effective on polytrack.

Form: 696205

Highlander Addict⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Declan McDonogh| T: P J Flynn| OR: 58

8/1

Seen to good effect when making all at Wexford on his fifth start in bumpers. Little show in trio of Flat maidens but likely capable of better now tackling a handicap. Worth a market check.

Form: 800

(7)

Movin And Groovin¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Nathan Crosse| T: D Marnane| OR: 52| C

10/1

Made a winning stable debut at this course (1m) in July and placed 2 of next 3 starts, third of 13 at Roscommon (7.5f) on latter occasion. Below form in first-time cheekpieces last time but has stamina to prove over this trip and races from higher all-weather mark.

Form: 5-13738

(5)

Almost Okay²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: J P Fahey| OR: 55

40/1

Well held all 3 starts in handicaps and hard to fancy stepping up markedly on trip on handicap debut unless the market suddenly suggests otherwise.

Form: 040

(15)

Chloe's Boy^v⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Reserve 1| T: H Rogers| OR: 51

8/1

Built on promise of previous effort when opening account in handicap at Punchestown (9f) in September. Best effort since in first-time visor when third in 1m event at this track last time. Steps back up in grade here and races from 2 lb out of the handicap. RESERVE.

Forecasts

Eastern Peace (4/1), Femme Beauty (5/1), Echinacea (6/1), Sherekiya (7/1), Speckled Meadow (8/1), Movin And Groovin (8/1), Limestone Red (10/1), Chloe's Boy (10/1), No More Porter (10/1), Walhaan (16/1), Flying Fortress (16/1), Darkdeserthighway (20/1), Highlander Addict (25/1), Almost Okay (25/1), Cozone (25/1)

EASTERN PEACE is a C&D winner from last winter and backed up her previous effort when fourth here 26 days ago, so she is fancied to resume winning ways with Billy Lee taking the reins, while Speckled Meadow rates the main danger from a lower all-weather mark and Sherekiya is respected with this trip expected to suit.
