Harry's Bar²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: R P Whelan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 100| D

16/1

Smart gelding. Four wins from 9 runs last year. Bit below form sixth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (6f) 24 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Best efforts have come on AW however.

Form: 11-1036

(2)

Laugh A Minute²³

3/1

Diswinning 15-runner listed race at Cork (6f, good to soft) 23 days ago by 2 lengths from Fiscal Rules, keeping on well. Possibly race fitness told over his rivals then but respected in any case.

Form: 4042-41

Jungle Jane⁶

20/1

AW/turf winner who ran below form when seventh of 10 in handicap (13/2) at Tipperary (5f, good to soft) on return 6 days ago. That should have blown the cobwebs away but this demands more.

Forecasts

Make A Challenge (11/4), Laugh A Minute (3/1), Chief Little Hawk (11/2), Urban Beat (7/1), Mooneista (17/2), Back To Brussels (11/1), Star In The Making (12/1), Swiss Ace (12/1), Harry's Bar (16/1), Jungle Jane (20/1), A Step Too Far (25/1)

MAKE A CHALLENGE was no match for Laugh A Minute when the pair met in a listed race at Cork 23 days ago, yet the former is 3 lb better off with that rival on this occasion and, with the cheekpieces refitted, he may be up to reversing the placings now. Urban Beat is a consistent type and can also figure on return to action.
