9/2

First run since leaving Yvonne Latta when improved to win 14-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f, 9/2) 75 days ago, slowly away. First run for yard after leaving John P. Cahill. More to come, so boasts solid claims.

9/1

Seventeenth of 21 in handicap (14/1) at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Potentially well treated and step back up in trip should suit.

10/1

Remains a maiden after 27 Flat runs. 11/2, very good second of 6 in maiden at Dundalk (7f). Off 7 months. Merits consideration.

3/1

Creditable second of 8 in handicap (11/2) at Dundalk (6f) 63 days ago. In good order and should make presence felt if a wide draw doesn't scupper him.

25/1

50/1, bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, heavy). Off 163 days. Struggling for form when last seen, and may well need the run.

25/1

20/1, sixteenth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft). Off 174 days. Doesn't make much appeal.

25/1

Temperamental sort. Remains a maiden after 39 Flat runs. 14/1, last of 9 in handicap at Dundalk (7f) 12 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Company Keeping (3/1), Run The Jewels (9/2), Golden Days (8/1), Tara Power (8/1), Angel's Trumpet (9/1), Alice Milligan (10/1), Rosie Rock (11/1), London Palladium (12/1), Facethepuckout (12/1), Dutch Schaefer (12/1), Born Invincible (14/1), Cactus Tree (14/1), Zanabad (18/1), Accessory (20/1), Fine Distraction (20/1), Pallasmore Lass (25/1), Scream (25/1), Above Us Only Sky (25/1), Dazzling Spirit (25/1), Stardayz (25/1), Urtheone (50/1)

COMPANY KEEPING was only denied by a progressive sort at Dundalk a couple of months ago and is likely to be more tuned up than the bulk of his rivals, so he gets the nod ahead of the lightly raced Run The Jewels, who has changed yards again since scoring at the same course last time. Alice Milligan is another one to consider.
