Selected odds by:
Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Sixth of 9 in bumper at Galway (16.4f, heavy, 125/1) 59 days ago.
|
€45,000 3-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Dam (c128/h126), 2m hurdle/chase winner in France, sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser in France (17f-2½m winner) Rhode Island. Won sole start in points and is worth chancing to defend his unbeaten record.
|
Workforce gelding. Dam little show sole start in bumper/over hurdles.
|
Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 16 in bumper at Punchestown (16f, good to soft, 7/2) on NH debut. Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving P. M. J. Doyle. Could do better.
|
Kayf Tara gelding. Dam bumper/fairly useful 2½m hurdle winner. Not an obvious sort on paper.
|
Twice-raced maiden. 40/1, first run since leaving Peter John Flood when fourth of 10 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) 23 days ago, would have benefited from stronger handling.
|
Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft, 80/1) on NH debut 24 days ago, not ideally placed.
|
Flemensfirth gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser Limerick Lace, stays 3m. One to note if the market speaks in his favour.
|
€25,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam (h88), bumper winner, sister to top-class hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 3¼m) Time For Rupert and useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Minella Fair.
|
Runner-up in a point and filled same position in 8-runner bumper (5/6) at Punchestown (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 30 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Trainer going well.
|
€75,000 3-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/very smart chaser Le Milos and 2¼m bumper winner/useful hurdler Kid Commando. Not discounted.
|
Twice-raced maiden. 11/1, last of 7 in bumper at Navan (16f, heavy) 38 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Forecasts
Cantico (5/4), Mywayofthinkin (3/1), Sky Lord (11/2), Prends Garde A Toi (6/1), Goldinthemountains (10/1), Moonlight Jazz (12/1), Dairy Force (28/1), Our Soldier (33/1), His Nibs (33/1), Tommies Call (33/1), Kinbara Firstdraft (50/1), He's Gorgeous (66/1), Iamagetaway (125/1), Brave Crogha (150/1)
CANTICO has been acquired by top connections on the back of a point win and he's a likely candidate to make a successful start under Rules acknowledging Prends Garde A Toi sets a reasonable standard. Mywayofthinkin is worth considering if strong in the betting.
