Winner at Dundalk in November. 8/1, very good fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago, running on. Should give another good account.

Lightly-raced winner. 14/1, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Needs to improve but he's still relatively unexposed.

7/2
Thrice-raced winner. 11¼ lengths tenth of 15 to Rocky Sky in listed race (15/2) at Navan (10f, good to soft) 27 days ago. May get back on the up and this is a more realistic assignment than last time.

4/1
Promising sort. Won 13-runner maiden at Gowran (8f, soft, 14/1) 18 days ago, staying on well. More to come, so one to be interested off a fair opening mark.

Thrice-raced winner. Winner at Dundalk in December. 14/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago, doing too much too soon. Others more persuasive.

BOYNE RIVER could have been let in lightly based on 2yo form and, while her reappearance was only respectable, she could get back on the up now fully tuned up, so she gets the narrow vote in an open-looking contest. Magic Carousel, a close fourth on her handicap bow, is a threat along with recent maiden winner Holly Golightly.

  1. BOYNE RIVER
  2. MAGIC CAROUSEL (IRE)
  3. HOLLY GOLIGHTLY (IRE)
