Miss Abby Jools¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: M Halford| OR: 64| CD

2/1

Promising type who opened account over C&D in September. 7/2, similar form when second of 14 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago. Stable in good form and she's one for the shortlist.

Form: 400312

(6)

Leabaland²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Sam Ewing| T: M M Lynch| OR: 61| BF| CD

3/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Gowran in May. 4/1, creditable second of 14 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago. Holding form well of late and no surprise to see him in the mix.

Form: 186842

(4)

Cousin Shay^h1⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: J C McConnell| OR: 61| C

5/1

1 win from 3 runs this year. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap (12/1) at this course (7f) 9 days ago. Hood on 1st time and possibilities with a repeat.

Form: 976-201

(5)

Rosie Rock^b²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Adam Caffrey⁽⁴⁾| T: J McAuley| OR: 59| D

20/1

Ninth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 21 days ago, not seen to best effect having raced wide. Previous third in a 7f claimer wasn't devoid of encouragement so not entirely dismissed.

Form: 006639

(2)

Munfallet^b⁴²

Age: 11| Weight: 9-5| J: N P O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: D P Coakley| OR: 53| CD

50/1

C&D winner. 25/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 42 days ago, very slowly away. Back down in trip. Blinkers back on.

Form: 126000

(3)

Circles^t⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Luke McAteer| T: A McCann| OR: 53| BF

10/3

Good second of 14 in handicap (7/2) at this course (7f) 9 days ago, rallying when headed and just failing. Less exposed than most she meets here and a repeat gives her sound claims.

Form: 804042

(9)

Navorrosse⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Robert Whearty⁽⁴⁾| T: J McAuley| OR: 51

40/1

Latest win at Listowel in September. First run since leaving P. A. Fahy when 5 lengths ninth of 14 to Cousin Shay in handicap at this course (7f, 17/2) 9 days ago.

Form: 014049

(10)

Final Fantasy^t⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: James Ryan⁽⁴⁾| T: T G McCourt| OR: 49| D

40/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Tenth of 13 in handicap at this course (12f, 28/1) 7 days ago. That was her first start for 8 months and better showing anticipated now.

Form: 544000

(8)

Kudbegood^p³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Jack Kearney⁽⁴⁾| T: P J F Murphy| OR: 48| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Below form eighth of 15 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy, 22/1) 31 days ago. Yet to find his best form for present yard but return to this venue may help from his much-reduced mark.

Form: 2-07008

(14)

Be Adored³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: C Horgan⁽⁴⁾| T: D Murphy| OR: 49

100/1

First run since leaving M. D. O'Callaghan when twelfth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at this course (7f) 35 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Others make more appeal.

Form: 7-08070

(15)

Bellick²³

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: D N Curran⁽⁴⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 47| C

50/1

Course winner. Nineteen runs since last win in 2020. Bit below form ninth of 29 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, heavy, 28/1) 23 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 698339

Step Back In Time¹²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: J Cleary⁽⁴⁾| T: C D Timmons| OR: 47

33/1

Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 14/1, bit below form fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (7f) 16 days ago, ridden home turn and one paced. This return to further may well help.

Form: 600855

Forecasts

Miss Abby Jools (2/1), Leabaland (3/1), Circles (10/3), Cousin Shay (5/1), Kudbegood (12/1), Indiana Grey (14/1), Sheila (16/1), Rosie Rock (20/1), Sovereignty (33/1), Farnese (33/1), Destivelle (33/1), Final Fantasy (40/1), Navorrosse (40/1), Bellick (50/1), Munfallet (50/1), Step Back In Time (66/1), Be Adored (100/1)

A winner over C&D in September, MISS ABBY JOOLS again ran well and was deserving of extra credit having made her challenge from further back than others that featured in the finish when runner-up back here 2 weeks ago. She gets the nod with the prospect of more to come, with Circles, who went very close last time, and Cousin Shay next best. Leabaland completes the shortlist.
