Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Jake Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 64

4/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 18/1, shaped as if better for the run on the back of 4 months off when seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D 23 days ago, weakening final 1f. One to keep an eye from steadily easing mark.

Form: 255347

Navajo River²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Robbie Colgan| T: L Comer| OR: 60| D

28/1

Winner at Roscommon in August. 50/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 23 days ago, dropping away 2f out. Handicapper continues to relinquish his grip but others arrive with more pressing claims.

Catwalk Couture^b1⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Chris Hayes| T: E & P Harty| OR: 56

11/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Ninth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f, 33/1) 7 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Application of blinkers needs to bring about an upturn now.

Form: 5-4609

Clever Currency^p,t⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Robert Whearty⁽⁵⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 47

9/2

9/2, very good second of 8 in novice chase at Cork (17.6f, good to soft) 40 days ago, sticking to task. Modest on the Flat, respectable on last Flat run. Not taken lightly.

22/1

Remains a maiden after 26 Flat runs. Tenth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 7 days ago, left poorly placed. Not out of things for each-way purposes.

11/2

Creditable eighth of 14 in handicap (15/2) at this course (10.7f) 9 days ago, dropping away final 1f. That was his best effort since the spring and he comes here operating from career-low mark.

Form: 480808

Forecasts

Gracesolution (4/1), Clever Currency (9/2), Spinning Web (5/1), Firm Belief (5/1), Vista Baby (11/2), Say It So (13/2), Nevada Brave (15/2), Ciao Adios (8/1), Catwalk Couture (11/1), Indignation (12/1), Together Aclaim (22/1), Mater Matuta (25/1), Navajo River (28/1), Katzoff (40/1), Is That So (40/1), Zouperior (40/1), Static Charge (66/1)

SPINNING WEB has made more of an impact over hurdles/on the Flat during the second half of this year, again running with credit when fifth in a big-field Navan handicap over further 37 days ago. He can make a bold bid to defy his basement mark back down in trip, with Gracesolution heading up the dangers. Clever Currency and Firm Belief are others to consider.
