13/2

Latest win at Navan in June. 3/1, seventh of 8 in handicap over C&D 22 days ago, isolated from the main group and possibly finding the deep ground against her. Not one to write off.

Lightly-raced winner. Winner at the Curragh in July. 28/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 22 days ago. Needs to build on that now.

17/2

Winner at Naas in July. 11/1, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, heavy) 20 days ago, nearest finish. Possible a return to 6f will suit ideally.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Colin Keane| T: D Hogan| OR: 71| D

7/1

Thrice-raced winner. Fifth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 25 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Richard Hannon and booking of Colin Keane catches the eye.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: G M Ryan⁽³⁾| T: T Mullins| OR: 70| D

4/1

Latest win at Sligo in July. 18/1, bit below form sixth of 16 in handicap at this course (7f, good) 39 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Return to this shorter trip rates an obvious plus.

5/1

4/1 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable fourth of 10 in maiden at Navan (5f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Can give a good account back in a handicap.

BOUGHTINTHEDARK wasn't suited by being isolated on the wing, nor the deep ground, when seventh of 8 in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. However, she had previously been holding her form well and earns the vote to get back on track. Stablemate Breakfast Club and Glow Worm head up the dangers in a tricky affair.
