66/1

Twice-raced gelding on Flat. 150/1, eighth of 10 in maiden at the Curragh (10f, good) 12 days ago, missing break. Back down in trip and he has plenty to find on form.

85/40

Rock Basher¹²³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: J A Heffernan| T: S Crawley| OR: 43

16/1

Poor gelding. Remains a maiden after 13 Flat runs. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Sligo (10.6f, good). Off 123 days. Significantly down in trip. Difficult ask.

(9)

Yes Oui Si²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 60

Forecasts

Powerful Hook Head (85/40), Colugo (5/2), Ocean Manifest (5/2), Raydamann (11/2), Lohengrin (6/1), Yes Oui Si (6/1), Captain Hanley (14/1), Rock Basher (16/1), Peckham Springs (50/1), Baron Blake (66/1)

RAYDAMANN appears to be in good order judged on recent hurdles efforts and this drop to 7f now returned to the Flat could be just what the doctor ordered. He shades preference ahead of Ocean Manifest and Powerful Hook Head.
