Eamonn O'Connell 4%

148

11-12

5/1 11/2 9/2

Placed at Punchestown last time despite some jumping errors over three miles, showing he handles the trip on a sound surface; first-time hood and tongue-tie add interest, and he has a chance if the jumping holds together here.

AI verdict

Form showing two seconds and an unseating limits confidence despite a competitive 148 Saturday Rating at 11/2.

129

11-12

22/1 16/1 22/1

Coming back from 418 days off the track, he came down at Killarney when under pressure and has plenty to prove after a lengthy absence; first-time hood is the angle but he is hard to back with confidence until he shows more.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 129 combined with poor form (8/S-) and 20/1 odds signal a horse the market has largely dismissed.

P J Rothwell 7%

11-12

100/1

Tumbled two out at Downpatrick on his latest start, which overshadows an earlier third and gives him something to prove at the obstacles; effective at this sort of trip and on soft ground, though jumping confidence needs to hold up here.

AI verdict

Odds of 100/1 and a form showing just one finish reflect a market with zero confidence in Colwyn Bay.

123

11-12

66/1 50/1 66/1

By Order Of St George and related to a bumper and hurdles scorer on the dam's side, though the dam herself was well beaten; makes his debut here and, while the yard is capable, he is very difficult to assess first time out.

AI verdict

Long odds of 50/1 and unknown form leave Ellis Brittle with little market confidence despite carrying 11-12.

7/2 9/2 7/2

Top-rated on these figures, Fou De Toi showed useful form in France and has the profile of a horse capable of better; effective at today's trip, he disappointed on his last outing but returns after a 90-day break and the drop in trip looks favourable.

AI verdict

Form showing a pull-up last time and 5/1 odds suggest market holds reservations despite a Saturday Rating of 111.

Paul Stephen Kiely 6%

11-12

50/1 33/1 50/1

Fifth at Kilbeggan latest, doing his better work late in the race wearing a tongue-tie and comfortably held, but the step back up to a longer trip today is a positive; effective at this sort of distance on a sound surface, though overall recent form is patchy.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 63, 33/1 odds, and a form reading of P6-P5 make Great Entirely an unconvincing outsider carrying 11-12.

80/1 50/1 80/1

Making his rules debut after failing to complete in a point-to-point at Dromahane, he faces a stiff task against more experienced hurdlers; the brief break since suggests connections are ready to try him here, but he is up against it in this context.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 120 combined with poor form of 55P- and 50/1 odds signal a horse the market firmly dismisses.

143

11-12

SP 9/1 11/1

Point form has translated well under rules, with a win to his name in recent starts before a couple of placed efforts; third at Downpatrick last time in a bumper, he steps up to hurdles over a longer trip and looks capable of further progress on good ground.

AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 143 and winning form offset by 11/1 odds suggesting limited market confidence.

11-12

9/4 32/17 9/4

Third at Perth last time, running to form back up to today's distance, and clearly effective over 2m-2m4f on heavy and yielding; first-time blinkers add interest, though he is without a win in his last five starts and remains vulnerable.

AI verdict

Strong 120 Saturday Rating and competitive 2/1 odds justify four stars despite inconsistent 25273- form.

153

11-12

3/1 11/4 3/1

Finished 5½l third on his hurdles debut at Tramore last time, performing with credit on his introduction to the jumping game; effective on a sound surface and the step up in trip today should suit, with more likely to come as he gains experience over hurdles.

AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 153 combined with competitive 3/1 market odds and consistent form figures justify four stars.

7/1 13/2 7/1

Fourth on his hurdles debut at Clonmel, beaten 8l but performing to his level over today's sort of trip on a sound surface; the short break since should not be an issue and there is a case for him at this level.

AI verdict

Form figures of 46-4 and 7/1 odds suggest mid-tier potential, but a Saturday Rating of 145 and 11-12 weight justify three stars.

11-7

100/1 150/1 100/1

Trailing throughout at Gowran Park on his most recent outing, beaten well off the pace, he returns from 139 days off having yet to show anything useful under rules; hard to fancy until he gives a better account of himself.

AI verdict

Nile Star's 125/1 odds, winless 000- form, and low 128 Saturday Rating signal minimal winning prospects in this field.

C A McBratney 4%

127

11-5

33/1 25/1 33/1

Well beaten at Downpatrick last time in a mares' bumper, falling short of her previous form; makes her hurdles debut here and the step up in trip could help, though she needs to bounce back to her better level to feature.

AI verdict

Magical Sal's solid Saturday Rating of 127 is undercut by weak 63P-57 form and dismissive 28/1 market odds, limiting confidence to 3 stars.

14/1 16/1 14/1

Showed ability on her hurdles debut at Kilbeggan despite finishing fifth and being comfortably held; rated second on these figures and the step up in trip from 2m1f could bring out more, with this distance potentially a better test for her.

AI verdict

Outsider odds of 16/1, poor form figures of 2000-5, and a Saturday Rating of 137 signal limited winning prospects.

Rosie Brown

Age 6 · 11-5

Josh Younge 0%

Ms Helen P Markham 5%

—

127

11-5

150/1

Beaten well off the pace at Punchestown last time, she has shown little over hurdles to date and remains hard to back with confidence; the going is familiar and an earlier third suggests some ability, but she needs to improve markedly to feature here.

AI verdict

Rosie Brown's Saturday Rating of 127 is undermined by 150/1 odds and winless form of 039-0.

Sea Feliz

W. P. Mullins 26%

150

11-5

5/1 11/2 5/1

A Getaway mare purchased for 19,000 euros, she is a half-sister to Morricone who was useful at around 2m4f; the trainer's record with debutants warrants respect and she is not without a chance on first appearance if taking to the hurdles.

AI verdict

Decent Saturday Rating of 150 and manageable weight of 11-5 are offset by 6/1 odds and unknown form.

Mind Eraser

Mr S J Butler 0%

Mary Ellen Doyle 0%

123

11-12

66/1

Fourth in a maiden point at Tattersalls Farm, beaten 9l, he brings some experience from that sphere to his rules debut; showed ability at 3m in points and could transfer that to hurdles, though the switch to rules is a significant test.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 123 is undermined by 66/1 odds, poor 5-44 form, and heavy 11-12 weight burden.

Age 8 · 11-13

/P3F-P

Calum Hogan 7%

E McNamara 10%

11-13

18/1 14/1 18/1

Had been progressing over hurdles before failing to complete at Cork last time, and returns from a brief layoff; acts on soft and good ground at this sort of trip and, while the latest defeat needs explaining, his earlier hurdle form makes him a live contender.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-13 with a lowly Saturday Rating of 67, poor form of /P3F-P, and dismissed at 16/1 by the market signals minimal winning prospects.

Grey Gardens

Age 5 · 11-12

830-37

Sean O'Keeffe 9%

Paul Nolan 10%

11-12

9/2 4/1 9/2

Raced too freely in the early stages here last time and was beaten a long way as a result; rated second on these figures and clearly effective with cut in the ground over 2m-2m3f, he has shown enough on earlier occasions to suggest he can progress if more settled.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 87 and poor form figures of 830-37 make Grey Gardens an unconvincing 9/2 shot carrying 11-12.

Lakota Blue

6/363-

Mr N. McParlan 8%

Sean McParlan 11%

11-11

14/1 9/1 14/1

Drops back to hurdles after a spell over fences, most recently 8½l third in a handicap chase at Downpatrick, and faces a significant test returning from nearly 12 months off; effective over 2m-2m4f, but considerably more is needed here after such an absence.

AI verdict

Lakota Blue's poor form (6/363-), long odds of 12/1, and below-par Saturday Rating of 79 make this an unlikely winning prospect.

Oh So Charming

44-525

Kevin Healy(7) 10%

Declan Queally 18%

11/2 5/1 11/2

Held up at Downpatrick last time, apparently having encountered a bleeding issue, he arrives with a tongue-tie for the first time; capable of running well over this sort of trip on a sound surface, though an inconsistent profile makes him a difficult proposition.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-11 with modest form figures of 44-525 and a Saturday Rating of 88 limits Oh So Charming's prospects at 5/1.

11/4 5/2 11/4

Top-rated at 120 on our figures, he went close at Clonmel last time, beaten 3l from a mark 1lb lower than today's; effective over 2m-2m4f on soft and good, consistent placed runs give him solid claims, and first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces add interest on a mark of 95.

AI verdict

Rated 92 with solid 11/4 odds but inconsistent form of 552-43 and top weight 11-9 limits confidence.

Kentucky Bluebird

Keith Donoghue 13%

Gavin Cromwell 11%

11-7

6/1 11/2 6/1

Showed a return to form here last time, racing prominently and finishing fourth beaten 6l in an encouraging display; effective around 2m on good ground and she has a solid chance of building on that effort, with the rating on our figures suggesting she is ahead of the handicapper.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-7 with poor form of 066-04 and a modest Saturday Rating of 83 at 6/1 suggests limited winning prospects.

Tropical Twist

Paddy Cleary 5%

Gordon Elliott 18%

11-7

20/1 20/1 18/1

Failed to complete at Bellewstown last time, adding to a difficult recent record that includes a fall; effective around 2m with cut in the ground but she has everything to prove at this level after those setbacks, and the break since adds further uncertainty.

AI verdict

Long odds of 22/1, poor form reading 545FP-, and a low Saturday Rating of 57 make Tropical Twist uncompetitive here.

J J Slevin 13%

Anthony Mullins 8%

11-2

17/2 11/1 17/2

Ninth at Clonmel on his most recent start, showing more initiative but fading late having perhaps needed that run after a break; effective at this sort of trip and beyond on heavy and yielding, and could take a step forward now that outing is under his belt.

AI verdict

Outsider at 12/1 carrying 11-2 with a winless form of 0/0P9- and a low Saturday Rating of 71 offers little confidence.

Fifth in her handicap debut at Listowel, beaten 10l but handling the switch to handicap company; effective at 2m and the trajectory appears to be moving in the right direction, which gives grounds for cautious encouragement here.

AI verdict

Cinnabar Moth's poor recent form of 98-055, weak Saturday Rating of 73, and 10/1 odds signal limited winning prospects.

Ms N M Bradley 0%

Eoin Griffin 8%

10-11

18/1 14/1 18/1

Away from the track for nearly 600 days after exiting at Navan, he faces a major test returning from such a prolonged absence; effective over 2m-2m3f and the addition of a tongue-tie could sharpen him, but overcoming that long layoff is the key concern.

AI verdict

Rated just 65 with poor form of /073F/ including a fall, carrying 10-11 at 16/1 makes Mr Macphisto an unconvincing outsider.

33/1 FCST 28/1

Consistent at the wrong end of the field and again failing to complete at Downpatrick last time, he is difficult to recommend on what he has produced to date; first-time cheekpieces are the only positive angle but there is plenty of improvement required.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 51, 28/1 odds, and a form string showing a pull-up make Dark Berkshire a very unconvincing contender.

Jumpy at his hurdles at Sligo last time and never involved from off the pace, he has everything to prove having failed to place in his last four starts; usually races in behind and has produced little to inspire confidence in recent outings.

AI verdict

Outsider at 14/1 carrying 10-8 with a winless form of 0/0-00 and a low Saturday Rating of 66 confirms minimal winning prospects.

28/1 22/1 28/1

At Kilbeggan last time, he was dropped off and beaten well, struggling to match strides throughout; seems effective at 2m but has significant improvement to find before becoming a factor in this grade, and the overall form gives little encouragement.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 53, bleak form reading 0000-9, and 25/1 odds signal minimal winning prospects here.

40/1 33/1 40/1

Exiting at Tramore on his latest start, with a refusal in his recent form, he is in disappointing shape at the lower levels; carries a light weight and acts at 2m, but there is a great deal to find on the evidence of recent runs.

AI verdict

Rated just 49 with 33/1 odds and a form reading R55-7P including a pull-up, Esticky End offers no winning case.

Performed well at Dundalk last time, beaten 4l in a flat handicap, but faces a bigger ask returning to hurdles where his recent record has been poor; back from a break for a discipline he has struggled with and has plenty to prove in this sphere.

AI verdict

Outsider odds of 10/1, a poor form reading of 00/00-, and a modest Saturday Rating of 74 undermine confidence in Syosset.

14/1 12/1 14/1

Struggled to land a blow at Clonmel last time, unable to go the pace from the rear of the field; stays today's trip and acts on good to yielding, but his form is difficult to assess accurately and a short break adds an unknown element.

AI verdict

Long absence, poor recent form (9800-), and 12/1 odds suggest the market holds little confidence despite a manageable 11-4 weight.

Well beaten at Ballinrobe last time in a handicap, performing short of her best; handles 2m on soft ground but she has a fair amount to find now facing handicap company and has yet to demonstrate she is up to this level.

AI verdict

Barrogstown Girl's poor form figures of 06-8, a modest Saturday Rating of 77, and 9/1 odds suggest limited winning prospects here.

Returning from a lengthy absence and unplaced in his last four; beaten 19 lengths on his Flat debut at Tramore last time, where a slow beginning compounded his problems. First-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces offer little reason for optimism — hard to fancy ranked last on our figures.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 63, poor form figures of 0/770-, and 40/1 odds signal minimal winning prospects.

9/2 4/1 9/2

Landed a handicap here by four lengths last time, held up to good effect, but now operates off a mark 9lb higher. Proven on this course, distance and going, and clear at the head of our ratings. Trainer's current form is a mild concern but the overall profile demands respect.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-12 with a Saturday Rating of 91 and inconsistent form (8970-1) limits Kilt's appeal at 9/2.

J J Slevin 13%

John Patrick Ryan 8%

11/1 9/1 11/1

Fifth last time, though interference from a faller left him with no chance to get competitive and the bare margin does him a disservice. He steps back 1lb on a surface that suits, effective between two and two-and-a-quarter miles. Rated second on our figures with a clear chance here.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-11 with patchy form (P1-705) and sent off 10/1, Le Diablo's 84 Saturday Rating flags a low-confidence selection.

Beaten six lengths at Listowel last time in a run that reads better than it looks — she was never in an ideal position throughout. Handles this distance and going and is showing a return to form. Yet to score in her last five, but not without a shout here.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-10 with a modest Saturday Rating of 81 and uninspiring form of 7P0-25 at 8/1 makes Bossing It a low-confidence selection.

Last seen being pulled up at this course, and his recent form shows little; inconsistent throughout his last four starts. Handles the distance and going and will likely be held up — first-time tongue-tie might help him settle. Needs to show he can complete before he can threaten.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-10 with a Saturday Rating of 58, dire form of 97/0-P, and 50/1 odds signal no market confidence whatsoever.

Sixth at Clonmel last time, fading in the final stages after returning from a break; the effort was in keeping with his form profile and he should be sharper for it now. First-time cheekpieces applied; handles today's distance and going and usually settles well held up. A consistent sort who merits respect.

AI verdict

Rated just 81 with poor form figures of 56P8-6 and carrying 11-7 at 7/1, Hatfield Hammer offers little confidence.

Eighth at Downpatrick last time, making errors throughout and beaten some way; she is learning on the job over hurdles. Off a short break and trying first-time tongue-tie, which may help her focus. Handles today's going over two miles and the handicap mark could be kinder once she settles.

AI verdict

Baby Fish carries top weight of 11-6 with a Saturday Rating of 72, weak form of 6006-8, and drifts at 14/1 as a non-favourite.

Shaped with renewed purpose at Punchestown last time, runner-up beaten four lengths off a mark 1lb lower than today's; he has been reliable without ever getting his head in front. First-time tongue-tie and blinkers added for a gelding effective at this distance and going. Rates a genuine danger on these figures.

AI verdict

Rated just 79 with inconsistent form (425-82) and unfancied at 17/2 carrying 11-3, Hidalgo Des Mottes offers limited winning prospects.

Unplaced in each of his last four starts and well down the field at Down Royal most recently, where he raced too freely throughout. Wears the hood again today off a short break; usually held up but the keenness shown last time makes him hard to trust. Difficult to fancy on these figures.

AI verdict

Blank form of 000-0, a Saturday Rating of just 79, and 13/2 odds signal minimal winning prospects here.

Darragh O'Keeffe 13%

11/2 13/2 5/1

Back-to-back wins before last time have him in good heart, and he put in a solid effort as runner-up beaten 11 lengths from the same mark he carries here. Proven at this distance and going; first-time cheekpieces added. A horse in fine form who looks a genuine danger.

AI verdict

Bella Union's solid form (901-12) and competitive 81 Saturday Rating are offset by a hefty 11-1 weight at 7/1 odds.

Down the field at Tramore most recently in a maiden hurdle, well beaten in each of his last three starts. He has yet to give any indication of ability, and a short break is unlikely to change the picture significantly. Hard to see him troubling the leaders here.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 57, 25/1 odds, and poor form figures of 070- indicate Davitts Quay has little realistic winning chance.

Runner-up at Sligo last time, caught close home after stepping up in trip, though she now operates off a mark 4lb higher. First-time hood applied; effective over today's distance and handles soft ground, usually settles well when ridden patiently. Must find more to feature here.

AI verdict

Rated 88 with moderate 11/4 odds and inconsistent form showing 07-882, Brave Josee presents mid-tier appeal at 10-13.

Blinkers applied for the first time; she handles today's distance. Yet to score in her last five and the profile offers little encouragement.

AI verdict

Doyen Og's dismal 47 Saturday Rating, 50/1 odds, and form showing a pull-up make this 10-3 burdened runner near unbackable.

Failed to complete at Sligo latest and has shown little consistency across his recent starts. The trainer's yard has landed 2 of the last 9 runnings of this race, which offers mild encouragement; blinkers tried for the first time. Effective at two miles but the form gives little reason for confidence.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 44, 33/1 odds, and a form string of /4P0-P signal minimal winning prospects here.

Fifth at Loughrea last time, beaten three and a quarter lengths and unable to reach his best level; he has finished in the minor placings repeatedly without ever getting competitive at the business end. Effective at today's distance and beyond, but needs considerably more to feature here.

AI verdict

Rated just 75 with poor form figures of 957-55 and dismissed by the market at 10/1, Bob The Builder carries top weight of 11-0 with little to justify confidence.

Down the field at Roscommon on her latest start in a maiden hurdle, beaten some way and unable to get involved at any stage; she now returns from 277 days off the track. A switch into handicap company may unlock some improvement, though a trainer in poor current form adds to the doubts. Hard to fancy.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-0 with a Saturday Rating of 65, poor form of /9778-, and dismissed by the market at 18/1, Notmiwadi offers little hope.

Down the field at Limerick on his most recent outing in a handicap hurdle, and his last four starts include two non-completions; he has offered little of note. A short break has been taken but the form gives little basis for confidence, ranked towards the bottom of our figures.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of just 46, combined with a 25/1 outsider price and dismal form figures of 0/PP0-, leaves Out Moll's Gap with minimal winning prospects.

Third in a beginners chase at Tramore last time, beaten 16 lengths, and is developing over fences on ground he handles. Tries a tongue-tie for the first time today; winless in his last five but a danger to the selection at this level.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-9 with inconsistent form (075-43) and a Saturday Rating of 88 makes Giant Haystacks an unreliable 4/1 shot.

14/1

Won a handicap at Down Royal by five and a half lengths off this exact mark on his last start, showing the trip suits him on this going. The concern is a very long spell off — 554 days — and he needs to recapture that form on return.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-9 with patchy form (7/351/) and a 14/1 outsider, Le Malin's Saturday Rating of 82 signals limited winning prospects.

Fourth in a handicap chase at Downpatrick 20 days ago, beaten 8.25 lengths after returning to a longer trip that suits, and handles this going. Tries first-time blinkers today; inconsistent profile means he needs to build on that effort.

AI verdict

Sampoet's poor form (F-4584), top weight of 11-7, and 12/1 odds signal a horse the market has firmly dismissed.

Chase debut produced a return to form at Downpatrick 20 days ago, third beaten 9 lengths over today's trip on ground he handles. Effective at 2.5m and may get further over fences; winless in recent starts but that debut effort is encouraging.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 81, 11-4 weight burden, and weak 2800-3 form make 8/1 odds insufficient compensation for his limitations.

11/1 10/1 11/1

Out the back and well held in a maiden chase at Downpatrick last time, this point winner still has much to prove under rules. Acts at 3m on yielding ground and is usually ridden patiently, but ranked 18th on our figures he is hard to fancy.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-1 at 11/1 odds, Sledgehammer's poor form of 15P6-6 and low Saturday Rating of 71 justify the 2-star rating.

Parted company with his rider in a handicap chase at Tramore last time, but had shaped with promise before that. Handles this ground and trip, adds first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces, and retains potential at 3m — scope for better.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-0 with inconsistent form (085-2U) and a modest Saturday Rating of 78 limits appeal at 7/1.

Finished out of the frame in a handicap hurdle at Limerick 36 days ago and winless in her last five starts. Effective at 2.5m and handles this going, but has an inconsistent record; first-time blinkers are the angle to follow here.

AI verdict

Ixigreczed's Saturday Rating of 56, 25/1 odds, and dismal form of 906-00 make this 10-11 weighted runner uncompetitive.

Third in a maiden at Ballingarry on his most recent start, beaten 16 lengths, and has yet to show what he is capable of under rules. Tries a first-time tongue-tie today; ranked 19th on our figures and hard to recommend.

AI verdict

Rated just 74 with uninspiring P526-3 form and friendless 14/1 odds, Hey Sir carries 10-10 with little to recommend him.

Off since a pulled-up effort in a handicap chase at Cartmel nearly a year ago, returning from a lengthy spell away with form trending in the wrong direction. Handles this trip and going, but the layoff combined with that downward trajectory makes this a tough ask.

AI verdict

Outsider at 33/1 with a poor Saturday Rating of 53 and weak form of /79/P- makes Deadheat uncompetitive.

Pressed on too hard early and finished out of contention in a handicap hurdle at Cork on his most recent start. A maiden over hurdles returning from a short break, he has a lot to prove making his debut over fences.

AI verdict

Low Saturday Rating of 67, poor form figures of PP2P9-, and 12/1 odds signal minimal winning chance here.

Landed a handicap at Downpatrick 20 days ago off a 6lb lower mark and handles this ground and trip. In good form over fences, though he has a higher mark to overcome today and tries first-time tongue-tie and blinkers.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 74, long odds of 14/1, and inconsistent form of 44-421 suggest Fr Gilligansvoyge lacks the market confidence to compete.

Out of the frame in a handicap hurdle at Tramore 34 days ago, below his best, and winless in his last five starts. Acts on good ground at this trip, and the stable has a strong record in this contest; still a maiden at this level though.

AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 63, uninspiring 7P58-7 form, and 14/1 odds signal a horse with little winning chance carrying 10-3.

Well held in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan 33 days ago, struggling with his fencing throughout, and has an unreliable profile. Handles this going and trip, tries first-time hood and tongue-tie; his mark looks fair on hurdle form but attitude questions linger.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-12 with poor form figures of U02P-5 and unfancied at 8/1 makes Luimneach a risky proposition.

Second at this course last time, beaten 4 lengths off this exact mark, but exerted himself too much in the lead early on. Has been in fair form of late and handles this going; first-time cheekpieces fitted today and the quick turnaround of 3 days is worth noting.

AI verdict

Carrying 11-2 with a Saturday Rating of 86 and inconsistent form (3-6302) at 5/1 suggests a mid-tier chance warranting cautious interest.

Coming off a departure at Downpatrick 20 days ago, though he was progressive when winning over fences before that fall and handles this trip and ground. A tongue-tie is fitted for the first time today; a strong danger if he completes the course.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with patchy form of 44-U1U and a Saturday Rating of 88 limits Driveonwill's appeal at 9/2.

40/1 33/1 40/1

Hard to recommend on the form available, returning after a long absence without worthwhile evidence to assess. Shows a second among his recent results but the overall picture is thin and he is ranked 11th on our figures.

AI verdict

A 40/1 outsider carrying top weight of 12-0 with poor recent form (UP62/) and a Saturday Rating of 120 undermines confidence.

A Getaway gelding on debut today with no form to go on, half-brother to Mollie De Mai who was below her best at this kind of trip. Pedigree gives limited encouragement at today's distance; hard to assess.

AI verdict

Rated 121 but priced at 80/1 carrying top weight 12-0 with unknown form signals minimal market confidence.

Third at Tramore 35 days ago, beaten 2.5 lengths in a ladies bumper on ground he handles, and showing steady improvement across his starts. Effective at this distance on good to yielding; a genuine danger here on our second-highest rating in the field.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 146 and recent form showing a third place supports mid-tier appeal, but 12-0 weight and 5/1 odds limit confidence.

Out the back and outpaced throughout in an auction bumper at Naas on his most recent start, and has not placed in his last two outings. Returning after a 200-day absence makes this a difficult one to recommend.

AI verdict

Loughtown's 125/1 odds, poor P0- form, and top weight of 12-0 justify a weak 2/5 Saturday Rating of 121.

Second in a bumper at Listowel 32 days ago, beaten 3 lengths, and the distance suits him on ground he handles. Tries first-time cheekpieces today; a developing prospect who has yet to score but shaped with promise on that effort.

AI verdict

Martymill's mid-tier Saturday Rating of 144, lenient 8/1 odds, and inconsistent 46-62 form justify a cautious 3/5 stars despite carrying 12-0.

Lost his footing in a bumper at Listowel 32 days ago and had earlier fallen, but shaped with promise when runner-up before those mishaps. Handles this going and acts at 2m; the bumper form is not extensive but the ability looks to be there.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 at 12/1 with inconsistent form (2-FS) and a Saturday Rating of 132 limits confidence.

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a single form figure of 7 and 12/1 odds limits confidence despite a Saturday Rating of 139.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 at 25/1 odds with poor form of 0-03 and a Saturday Rating of 123 limits confidence.

Mid-tier Saturday Rating of 142, unfavoured market position at 9/1, and a hefty weight of 11-10 limits confidence to three stars.

AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 155 and competitive 6/4 odds support a reliable form figure of 2 despite carrying 11-7.

AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 147, high weight of 11-7, and 15/2 odds suggest mid-tier market confidence with limited recent form.

Sixth in a bumper at Kilbeggan 49 days ago and likely needing that run, his debut effort having since been put in context. Handles today's trip and going and tries a first-time tongue-tie; not without ability but needs to show more.

AI verdict

Rated 121 but carrying top weight of 12-0, poor form of 0-6, and dismissed by the market at 40/1 signals minimal winning prospects.
