25/1
Marginally better effort at Limerick late last month when dropped to 2m, still unable to get competitive but did at least finish the race off. Back up in trip, but work to do.

Anything but prolific over timber (3-26) but ran a much better race 11 days ago at Tramore off this mark when less than 4L fifth off 11, respected in this company.

Horse silk
Definite Soldiert13
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-10| J: A Ring(3)| T: P Croke| OR:  107
16/1
Won off this mark at Wexford in October over fences, didn't run badly there recently over hurdles and cannot be ruled out with any degree of certainty.

Horse silk
William B112
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-10| J: M A Enright| T: E P Harty| OR:  107
20/1
Made a promising start over timber in August but has regressed in three spins since, including when last seen 112 days ago at Leopardstown, lightly-raced so could well bounce back yet.

Horse silk
Cahirconreep40
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-8| J: B J Foley(7)| T: S Neville| OR:  105
10/1
Best effort over timber when narrow second at Naas in February over 2m, failed to back that up since at Gowran Park over this trip. Depends which mood he shows up in here.
6
Horse silk
Mill Quest40
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-7| J: D E Splaine| T: T O'Brien| OR:  104
8/1
Couple of good efforts around the turn of the year off 2lb lower rating make him interesting for this, if willing to forgive a flop at Gowran Park last month over this trip when perhaps a bit too keen.
7
Horse silk
Prince Kupp63
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-7| J: P Townend| T: E J O'Grady| OR:  104
12/1
Two efforts over timber this year have been disappointing and little better when going chasing at Clonmel in February, very hard to be confident in right now.
8
Horse silk
Tidy Zagh,t33
Age: 12|  Weight: 11-7| J: A E Lynch| T: R Hackett| OR:  104
8/1
Raised 7lb for Limerick success over 2m last time out, had plenty in hand on that occasion and stays this trip no issues if in the same mood again.
9
Horse silk
Tabhachtachp140
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-5| J: D E Mullins| T: S Slevin| OR:  102
20/1
Cheekpieces are set to be tried in a bid to halt a losing run that dates back to October 2013, hasn't been without his troubles since then and most recent run at Gowran Park was lacklustre.
10
Horse silk
Fairy Court165
Age: 11|  Weight: 11-3| J: Katie O'Farrell(7)| T: S O'Farrell| OR:  100
25/1
Modest performer, came back from a long layoff and had two runs last year in the care of Willie Mullins, with the champion trainer unable to find a spark. Best watched on first outing for new handler.
11
Horse silk
Tunnel Creek125
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-3| J: B J Cooper| T: T Cooper| OR:  100
33/1
Won a maiden on the Flat at Windsor in June 2015, there have been few signs of ability since however, including on two December outings for this yard. Has a fair to prove on previous hurdles run.
12
Horse silk
Broughtons Start11
Age: 10|  Weight: 11-2| J: J W Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR:  99
11/1
Unseated rider twice already this year, which is disconcerting, though went close last time at Tramore over this kind of trip. He's modest at best but if anyone can get him to win a race, it is probably this trainer.

Horse silk
Delayed Eloquenceh164
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: P T Enright| T: J P O'Brien| OR:  99

Mare has yet to score in eight starts under rules, previous effort at Fairyhouse in November hinted there is more to come however and this longer trip looks likely to suit.
14
Horse silk
Small Worldh201
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-2| J: R Loughran| T: M S Sandra Hughes| OR:  99
16/1
Hasn't since run since October when fading out of contention in maiden hurdle over this trip, makes handicap debut and could have more to offer.

So Sorry Sarah30

There was plenty to like about last month's handicap hurdle debut at Clonmel and off the same mark going up in trip, she's given a chance now.
16
Horse silk
Simply Goocht14
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-1| J: R Deegan(7)| T: P Nolan| OR:  98
33/1
Fell recently over fences at Limerick on stable debut, reverts to hurdles now and has something to find on previous form in doing so.
17
Horse silk
Tethra34
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-1| J: D J Hand(7)| T: D A McLoughlin| OR:  98
16/1
A winner over 2m at Punchestown on New Year's Eve, she's essentially held her form in three further runs since. This longer trip is a niggling worry however.
18
Horse silk
Just Call Me14
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-0| J: Rachael Blackmore(3)| T: A J McNamara| OR:  97
25/1
Came back from 545-day layoff to run twice over 2m at Limerick in the previous month, unable to get in any sort of telling blow on either occasion. Appears best watched again.

Run two solid races lately and weighted to do so again, was only beaten ½L last time over 2m5f and clearly gets on well with this rider.

20:10 Tipperary - 20 April 2017 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Aa Bee See was a fairly ready winner at Fairyhouse earlier this month and he looks certain to go well again but it might prove the 16lb he was served with for that win is enough to ground him for now. So Sorry Sarah wasn't beaten far last time and, racing off the same mark, should go well again but the nod is given to KING BLUE who has been running some good races. He wasn't beat far last time and gets on well with his excellent lady rider so might get the job done in this. Tethra is another running solidly, though this trip is a concern and the shortlist is completed by Tidy Zag, who won well at Limerick recently and can have a say off a 7lb higher mark.
  1. King Blue
  2. So Sorry Sarah
  3. Aa Bee See
