Yuften⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: D N Curran⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J Feane| OR: 92| D

11/10

Reeled off an AW hattrick over 6f-1m this winter. Turf form since less persuasive although fifth latest at the Curragh over 1m appeals plenty in this sort of company. Trip should be close to perfect and has leading claims.

Form: 1-11495

Lincoln¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: K J Leonard⁽³⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 85| D

5/2

Former five-time winner for Mick Channon gained first win for this yard latest when taking advantage of a weak claimer at Sligo over 6f. Won over 7f so should be every bit as competitive here and rates a big player.

Form: 3/77971

Nothing To Lose⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: R Coakley| T: J C McConnell| OR: 73| D

13/2

Four-time winner including on heavy ground. Not really fired this season so far and the terms of this race mean he will need to be very close to his best to feature.

Form: 610-967

(2)

Thousand Letters²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: S B Kelly⁽³⁾| T: C P Donoghue

100/1

Tailed off in lone hurdles start before recent 20L seventh of eight in a 1m maiden on the level. Plenty to prove at this stage.

Form: 7

(5)

Pass The Cristal¹¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: C D Maxwell⁽³⁾| T: N McKnight| OR: 42| D

66/1

Three-time winner for William Muir as a three-year-old in 2017 but story since is basically of steady regression. Starts out for new yard and major upturn now needed.

Form: 0000-80

(1)

Tennesse Waltz^b²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: O J Orr| T: D Marnane| OR: 61| D

14/1

Won a Naas claimer late last year but form in similar races since pretty patchy and this on the face of it is a race where he ought to struggle based on ratings.

Form: 155-270

(9)

Itsdacraic¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: R A Smithers⁽¹⁰⁾| T: S Fahey

66/1

Not seen a great deal to recommend him in opening three maidens so despite his very unexposed profile he remains best watched for some glimmer.

Form: 90-8

(12)

Florida's King^b,t³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Chris Hayes| T: A B Joyce| OR: 35

50/1

11-race unplaced maiden now rated just 37. Something akin to a miracle needed.

Form: 0-00080

(7)

Gold Jasmine^p1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: W J Lee| T: K J Condon| OR: 62| CD

8/1

Dual winner has been in fair form to start this season with her best run an AW score at Dundalk. Weight-for-age pull should give here a squeak for a place at least here.

Form: 40-1906

(6)

Heir of Excitement^b,h1⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 45| D

16/1

Over two years since last win and basically seemed regressive since. More additional headgear added now but that had little impact on him before so best avoided again.

Form: 98-5000

(4)

Marylebone⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 43| D

25/1

Lone win came in 2015 and changed hands a few times since with no success. Form last season and first time out this pretty deplorable so can't be fancied.

Form: 70090-0

Forecasts

Yuften (11/10), Lincoln (5/2), Nothing To Lose (13/2), War Hero (7/1), Gold Jasmine (8/1), Tennesse Waltz (14/1), Heir of Excitement (16/1), Marylebone (25/1), Florida's King (50/1), Pass The Cristal (66/1), Itsdacraic (66/1), Thousand Letters (100/1)

Although arguably better on AW nowadays this represents an excellent chance for top-rated YUFTEN to get back to winning ways. Recent Sligo scorer Lincoln looks the obvious danger with that run under his belt. Lone three-year-old Gold Jasmine ought to be thereabouts also.
