14/1

Winner of three of his nine C&D starts and hit the frame when last seen in September. Worthy of consideration with the yard boasting a consistent win and place strike rate at this venue in mid February since 2016.

Form: 704503-

Amanaat^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: R Coakley⁽³⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 86| BF| C

10/1

Two from eight at the track and already has a winner on the board this year when landing a 5f handicap last month off a 5lb lower mark. One of the more likely types.

Form: 5138-17

Stanhope⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: R P Cleary| T: D English| OR: 86| BF| C| D

5/1

Course winner who has also won over the trip, last seen in the winners enclosure in December landing a 5f handicap off a 7lb lower mark. Running well in defeat since and capable of a big effort.

Form: 47312-3

(7)

Eastern Racer¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: K J Manning| T: D Hogan| OR: 84| D

14/1

Has won five of his 20 starts over this trip and was a solid and consistent performer last summer for trainer Brian Ellison. Likely to improve on stable debut earlier this month here over 5f.

Form: 11218-5

(13)

Geological³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: S Foley| T: D English| OR: 84| CD

14/1

Gallant, solid and consistent front-runner over the years and winner of two of his 15 starts over C&D. Not ruled out but a couple of below par runs to shake off.

Form: 3260-54

(10)

Nick Vedder^b⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: C T Keane| T: M Wigham| OR: 84| D

13/2

Newcastle stalwart who has won three of his 10 starts at the track including last month off a 4lb lower mark. Interesting British raider with notable jockey booking.

Form: 85122-1

(2)

Plough Boy¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: O J Orr⁽³⁾| T: G Donnelly| OR: 80| C| D

8/1

Course winner that has won over this trip. Generally well held in two starts since the turn of the year over 5f. Plenty more needed stepping up in trip in this contest.

Form: 1470-73

(6)

Billyfairplay^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: M A Gallagher| T: J Feane| OR: 76| BF| CD

5/1

Winner of one of his three starts over C&D landing the odds off an 18lb lower mark in December. Second of 12 beaten 1¾L over 7f here earlier in the month and one of the more likely types here.

Form: 1161-32

(9)

Togoville^b²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 8-13| J: A J Slattery⁽⁷⁾| T: A McCann| OR: 76| CD

33/1

Four from 17 for the Verglas gelding over C&D but is on a long losing run which has included a couple of disappointing efforts last month. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 0858-00

(4)

View The Bay¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: B M Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 75| C

9/2

Winner over 5f and 7f since December and ran to within 1¼L of Dandys Gold over C&D last month off a 6lb lower mark when finishing second of 13. Holds leading claims.

Form: 221-421

(12)

Kasbah^v⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: T P Madden⁽³⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 74| C| D

10/1

Winner over the distance who has a course win to his name in the process. Worthy of consideration with the yard boasting a consistent win and place strike rate at this venue in mid February since 2016.

Form: 04-8424

(1)

Verhoyen^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: N G McCullagh| T: M C Grassick| OR: 72| CD

25/1

C&D winner last March off a 6lb higher mark but has disappointed connections since in a series of dismal efforts including finishing last of nine here over 5f last month. Others have more scope for improvement.

Form: 54020-9

(5)

Lily's Prince¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 8-7| J: W M Lordan| T: G Donnelly| OR: 70| CD

6/1

One from 10 over C&D hitting the frame on a further six occasions including when finishing second of 14 beaten ½L earlier this month. One to consider on recent displays.

Form: 703-852

Forecasts

View The Bay (9/2), Billyfairplay (5/1), Stanhope (5/1), Lily's Prince (6/1), Nick Vedder (13/2), Plough Boy (8/1), Amanaat (10/1), Kasbah (10/1), Geological (14/1), Master Speaker (14/1), Eastern Racer (14/1), Verhoyen (25/1), Togoville (33/1)

The running style of VIEW THE BAY may play to the Casamento fillies advantage here breaking from stall four. The four-year-old can improve when getting to within 1¼L of Dandys Gold over C&D last month off a 6lb lower mark when finishing second of 13. British raider Nick Vedder could emerge as the biggest danger under jockey Colin Keane with Billyfairplay and the Denis Hogan trained Amanaat worthy of consideration.
