Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: R Hackett| OR: 109

3/1

Arrives in good nick, fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft) 22 days ago. That form has been franked, so he holds good claims eased 1 lb.

Forecasts

Rock On Seamie (3/1), Galon De Vauzelle (11/2), Molly Wedger (15/2), Cahirdown Boy (8/1), Dinny Lacey (8/1), Fest Deiz (11/1), Summer Tide (12/1), Slige Dala (12/1), Railway Hurricane (14/1), Alvaro (14/1), Fancy Foundations (16/1), Eclair De Beaufeu (16/1), One For Joe (22/1)

ROCK ON SEAMIE is fancied to capitalise on a good mark with his latest Killarney fifth off a 1 lb higher mark proving good form for the grade. Fest Deiz is feared most on the back of his recent chasing win at Kilbeggan, with handicap-debutant Alvaro another who can have a say in an open handicap.
