Selected odds by:
In decent form so far this spring placing at Roscommon and Kilbeggan since finishing runner-up over C&D on yielding ground in April. Well held at Wexford last time out but remains of interest off top weight.
Finished runner-up at Wexford (good) over 2m last month and now placed twice from three starts over fences. Races off a 3lb higher mark today but trip and ground should suit and likely to run well once more.
Beaten 1¾L when finishing third in firs time blinkers (retained) over an extended 2m4f at Killarney (good) last month. Won off a 9lb higher mark here over hurdles and an interesting runner today.
Twice finished third over fences in 2017 including over C&D on yielding ground in April. Pulled up at Limerick last time and won off a 5lb higher mark over this C&D back in 2015.
Finished 5½L second over an extended 2m3f at Limerick (good) last month. Ran well to finish fourth here in April and an interesting runner in first time cheekpieces today.
Winner over 2m5f (soft-to-heavy) here in January and ran well off this mark when third at Limerick (good) last month. Won or placed in half of his ten starts at this track and one for the shortlist today.
Beaten 8½L into third in an 11 runner contest over this distance at Wexford (good) last time out. Had just the five runs for this yard but likely to find a few too good today.
Dual course winner and returned to form when finishing runner-up off a 15lb higher hurdles mark at Wexford (good) last month. Receives weight from all of his rivals here and likely to run well if turning out quickly have run here yesterday.
Forecasts
Game Puppeteer (5/2), Magnetic Force (7/2), Patsio (7/2), Dawerann (13/2), Line View (8/1), Bellgrove (8/1), Arthamint (14/1), Ballyfinboy (20/1)
LINE VIEW followed up a 2m5f success here by finishing third dropping in trip last time and he can claim a third success at this venue following a further drop in trip today. The selection races off a mark 6lb higher than for that success and can get the better of Patsio who ran well at Killarney last month while Magnetic Force can take third off bottom weight in this.
