Sharg¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: J A Heffernan| T: D Hogan| OR: 61

25/1

Bred and built to be top-class, but disappointing for Richard Hannon last year, and hasn't offered much for new connections this year. On a lenient mark if he ever does find some focus.

Form: 205-070

(4)

Macho Mover^p1⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: R Coakley| T: E Doyle| OR: 60

20/1

Dual Flat winner (1¼m and 1m3½f) for Mick Channon, and has shown some aptitude in a few runs over hurdles for current yard. Cheekpieces on now returning to this discipline, and not ruled out.

Form: 112357-

(5)

Military Hill^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: S Foley| T: P Stafford| OR: 60

8/1

Winner over an extended 1m at Hamilton (soft) in September and made a pleasing enough return when fifth of 16 in a 1¼m handicap at Cork for new yard this month. Shouldn't be far away if he can build on that.

Form: 61280-5

(11)

Rock On Seamie²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: W J Lee| T: R Hackett| OR: 59

12/1

Having his first run since leaving Samuel Farrell when a staying-on third of 12 in a 1¼m handicap at Leopardstown three weeks ago. Leading claims if building on that.

Form: 0/54588-

(10)

Acari^h²⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Chris Hayes| T: G B Caldwell| OR: 58| BF| D

11/2

Won on 2018 return at Gowran and several good efforts after that. Excuses when well held when last seen in August, and every chance if he's tuned up for this reappearance.

Form: 014278-

(9)

Gizi Gazelle¹⁹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: E O'Connell| OR: 57| C

8/1

Won over 7f here last May in good style, but raised markedly in the weights and failed to repeat that form subsequently. Still 7lb higher than for that success, and opposable on return from absence.

Form: 871060-

(1)

Santorini Sun²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: A J Slattery⁽⁷⁾| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 55

9/2

Patchy form last year, but shaped well when 1¼L third of 12 to Latchet in a 1¼m handicap at Leopardstown on her seasonal return, and she will take all the beating if she can back that up.

Form: 49278-3

(2)

Challow^v¹⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Colin Keane| T: T G McCourt| OR: 54

11/1

Bits of form that would give him solid claims here, but he's now 0-34 under both codes, and isn't one for maximum faith.

Form: 209288-

(15)

Fiannaiocht⁹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 52

9/1

Seemed to improve when third over 1m2½f at Dundalk in January, but well below that form at same track later that month, and returns from a break with a bit to prove.

Form: 0097-30

(7)

Our Anniversary³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Ben Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs D A Love| OR: 52

14/1

Going nowhere quickly and has beaten only a handful of horses home in her last seven starts. No great appeal here.

Form: 000-000

(3)

Caronda⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Emma Louise Doyle⁽¹⁰⁾| T: T Doyle| OR: 50

16/1

Ran well when third at Dundalk in January, and looked like she would progress, so disappointing that she has failed to build on that in a handful of subsequent AW starts. Tends to start slowly.

Form: 7-38486

(8)

Marmalade N Toast⁹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: C P Hoban| T: P J Flynn| OR: 50

11/1

Won a Cork handicap on heavy ground a year ago, and now 4lb lower in the weights, but he hasn't really looked like taking advantage of the handicapper's generosity, and needs to up his game.

Form: 08042-7

(6)

Bella Rua^t¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: K J Leonard⁽³⁾| T: Miss J M Lee| OR: 45

14/1

Bits of form on soft ground last summer but form tailed off after that, and she didn't run well enough on her return at Leopardstown to make her of interest here.

Form: 54079-0

(16)

Fast On^p¹⁷⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 8-8| J: D E Sheehy⁽⁵⁾| T: S Fahey| OR: 45

33/1

Won a poor contest at Chelmsford in 2016, but lightly raced and no solid form since, including over hurdles, so hard to see him turning back the clock.

Form: 050/090-

(13)

Punches Pious^b¹⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 8-8| J: Wayne Lordan| T: T Doyle| OR: 45| C

12/1

Has a patchy profile, but fared better in refitted blinkers when fifth of 15 to Villa Maria at Gowran last time. Needs to show he can back that up.

Form: 645/90-5

Its Harrys Girl^t⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-8| J: Rory Cleary| T: J T Gorman| OR: 45

25/1

Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs, and although she wasn't disgraced in claiming company last time, she will need to do better to get competitive in handicap company.

Form: 0009/0-4

Forecasts

Santorini Sun (9/2), Acari (11/2), Gizi Gazelle (8/1), Military Hill (8/1), Fiannaiocht (9/1), Marmalade N Toast (11/1), Challow (11/1), Rock On Seamie (12/1), Punches Pious (12/1), Uluru Park (12/1), Our Anniversary (14/1), Bella Rua (14/1), Caronda (16/1), Macho Mover (20/1), Sharg (25/1), Its Harrys Girl (25/1), Fast On (33/1), Lady Scathach (33/1), Trenchtown Rock (50/1)

SANTORINI SUN was back on track for her new yard at Leopardstown on her return, and is the likeliest winner if she can repeat that effort. Acari has quite a positive profile, and won on his 2018 return, so also merits respect, with Macho Mover and Military Hill worth considering on form shown in Britain last season.
