Mosaaheb^b²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: D King⁽⁷⁾| T: D Hogan| OR: 64

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1 and blinkered for 1st time, good fourth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f) 20 days ago, edged out close home. Claims if proving as effective on turf.

Form: 6-884

Eastern Racer^b¹⁹⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 9-13| J: J A Powell⁽⁷⁾| T: S Byrne| OR: 62

14/1

Veteran. Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Below form sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (7.4f, heavy) when last seen in October. Conditions will hold no fears but this run may be needed on back of 6 months off.

Form: 482886-

Lady Leanora⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld| OR: 62| BF

9/1

Winner at Gowran (1m) in September who shaped as if needing the run when midfield in 16-runner handicap at that venue 8 days ago. Should strip fitter for that and not discounted.

Form: 81673-7

Montepulciano¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: N G McCullagh| T: J J Murphy| OR: 62

22/1

Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Gowran (9.6f, good, 14/1) 14 days ago, never better than midfield but not knocked about. One to keep an eye on.

Form: 07/76-08

Rocket Carnival⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: James J Doyle| T: D Hogan| OR: 62

25/1

Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Eighth of 15 in maiden at Gowran (9.6f, good to soft, 40/1) 8 days ago. Makes handicap debut and worth noting if market vibes are positive.

Form: 4-98

(9)

Jazz Dreamers¹⁸⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: B P Kennedy⁽¹⁰⁾| T: S Fahey| OR: 61| CD

18/1

Emphatically back to winning ways over C&D in August and ran well on 3 of his 4 starts thereafter. No forlorn hope from this sort of mark on return to action.

Form: 912250-

Barrys Rock¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: G M Ryan| T: A Mullins| OR: 60

10/1

Lightly-raced maiden on Flat who ran best race in this sphere when fourth of 10 in handicap at Dundalk (7f, 4/1) 13 days ago. Step back up in trip rates a plus now and worth a second look from 2 lb lower mark.

Form: 56964

(5)

Matilda With Me^p²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Colin Keane| T: R Sweeney| OR: 59| BF

3/1

Creditable third of 14 in handicap (9/2) at Dundalk (10.7f) 27 days ago. Booking of Keane a plus. Cheekpieces back on and good showing expected.

Form: 0-63233

Carirose²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: L F Roche| T: A A Howard| OR: 55

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving John McConnell when sixteenth of 21 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 50/1) 26 days ago. Significantly back up in trip.

Form: 6090-0

Kasansay¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: O J Orr| T: C D Timmons| OR: 55

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Thomas Coyle when tenth of 14 in handicap (66/1) at Leopardstown (8f, good) 19 days ago. Plenty to find on form.

Form: 8/80-0

Chimeric^t1¹⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: D W O'Connor| T: J F Levins| OR: 53

11/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 5/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 153 days. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 885509-

(11)

Colleen's Prince²¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Ronan Whelan| T: M Halford| OR: 52

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 15 in maiden (200/1) at Listowel (7f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut and betting should prove a useful guide.

Form: 009-

Sweet November¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: J A Heffernan| T: J C McConnell| OR: 52| D

8/1

Respectable seventh of 17 in handicap (8/1) at Leopardstown (9f, good) 15 days ago, running on but hindering her chance with a slow break. Needs to keep the sluggish starts at bay to feature here.

Form: 0-00067

Dragon Roll⁵⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Nathan Crosse⁽³⁾| T: E O'Connell| OR: 47

25/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2018. Last of 11 in handicap at Navan (14f, soft, 66/1 when last seen in October 2020. Likely best watched on this belated return to action.

Form: 007900/

Plugged In^h²¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Wayne Lordan| T: J T Gorman| OR: 47

15/2

One win from 2 runs last year. 12/1, creditable fifth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (1m) in September, caught further back than ideal from a wide draw. May go well again on return from such a lowly mark.

Form: 5640/15-

Red Sole Diva¹⁸⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: W Joyce⁽⁷⁾| T: M Mulvany| OR: 47

50/1

Well-beaten twelfth of 16 to Sweet November in handicap at Gowran (9.5f, soft, 33/1) in October, racing off the pace and never landing a blow. Passed over back from another absence for new yard.

Forecasts

Matilda With Me (3/1), Plugged In (15/2), Mosaaheb (8/1), Sweet November (8/1), Lady Leanora (9/1), Barrys Rock (10/1), Chimeric (11/1), Carirose (12/1), Eastern Racer (14/1), Jazz Dreamers (18/1), Montepulciano (22/1), Kasansay (22/1), Rocket Carnival (25/1), Dragon Roll (25/1), Colleen's Prince (33/1), Red Sole Diva (50/1)

A host arrive with claims in a competitive handicap but MATILDA WITH ME has been in good form on all weather in recent months and with the booking of Colin Keane catching the eye, she could be the way to go returned to turf. Barrys Rock ran respectably over shorter on his latest start and is also worth a second look, along with Lady Leanora and Mosaaheb.
