Form & Verdict

Locally trained C&D winner on good but has placed form here on heavy; beaten a head off 85 at Cork (5f, good) in May of last year; best run so far this season when beaten 2.5l over 6f at Laytown two weeks ago; very well-handicapped and may have been trained for this; leading claims.

Form & Verdict

Locally trained, 1-18 on turf, that win coming on his last start at Navan (5f, good); has run well here before but most of his best form is on good ground (and on the AW); drying ground would greatly enhance his chance.

Nine wins at Dundalk but yet to score on turf; was returning from a break when well held at Bellewstown last month and his good fourth in higher grade C&D contest in May shows he can run well on turf, but others preferred and he'll be heading back to AW soon.

Form & Verdict

2-34; hardy sort has been kept busy this season; won over C&D off 74 in July on good ground; now 5lb lower and he has posted some solid efforts on soft; finished close up behind Inishmot Prince on latest and may turn that around on this ground; another one with claims.

Decent record at this track; was in better form earlier in the summer including 5f win at Bellewstown; well held here last twice but was on the unfavoured far side last time and handicapper is giving him a chance; handles fast ground.

Form & Verdict

3-37 on turf; handles most ground but best when the mud is flying, just as it was last year for his C&D win at this meeting off 82; 1lb lower now and won off 89 last November; off since April but can go well fresh; has to be considered under promising 10lb claimer.

Form & Verdict

Grand servant is 13-81 on turf; likes it here and shaped well at Navan on his penultimate start off 76; poor effort there latest behind a couple of these but now down to a workable mark of 71; however, all thirteen of his wins have come on good or quicker so this ground has to be a big worry.

Getting on in years but goes well here and the faster the ground, the better; has shown plenty of life without winning this summer including C&D second in July and fair fourth here a fortnight ago where he wasn't on the quickest part of the track.

Form & Verdict

Dundalk maiden winner in November is 0-3 on turf; beaten 10l on his return to action for his new yard after a 283 absence at the Curragh (6f, good); blinkers now replace the hood tried last time; probably best watched for now.

Had four runs for his previous yard, winning the last of those at Dundalk (6f maiden; first-time cheekpieces); won that well and brings potential into handicaps; hood tried here after he was withdrawn after getting very upset in the stalls at Naas.
