14:05 Beauty Crescent

The experience gained by BEAUTY CRESCENT at Cork may supply a vital edge over a couple of interesting newcomers, the Ballydoyle-trained Broadhurst and Harry Time, whose trainer supplied the winner of the Cork event in which the Lyons colt was runner-up.

14:40 War Effort

There isn’t much between several of these on ratings but WAR EFFORT could have more to offer back to this trip after a solid run over 7f last time. Wild Eyed Girl was ahead of Laakhov and Gobi Star last time and can confirm that form. Money for any of the newcomers would be significant as they wouldn’t have to be stars to take this on debut.

15:15 Only Spoofing

Last year’s winner ONLY SPOOFING could bring off a mild surprise. He is 5lb lower than last year and ran quite creditably at Naas last Saturday after starting the season with two poor displays. Karlsberg was in front of the selection at Naas despite meeting trouble in running. She rates a danger along with reliable Dundalk performer Collective Power and Blind Beggar, an import who finished second at Tipperary on his Irish debut.

15:50 Stanhope

Raised 6lb for winning an apprentice contest here on his seasonal debut, STANHOPE may be good enough to back that up. Siobhan Rutledge, unable to claim on that occasion, takes off a valuable 5lb here. The veteran Pillar has finished second for today’s rider in three of his last six starts and should be thereabouts again, along with the highly consistent Teddy Boy who beat him at Bellewstown.

16:25 Arbutus

Having won a C&D maiden on debut despite still being green, ARBUTUS looked a strong stayer that day and can fend off Cairde Go Deo, who takes a 3f step-up in trip today, which isn’t guaranteed to suit.

17:00 Ellaat

With the exception of an off-day at Hexham last time, ELLAAT has been enjoying a productive spell over hurdles. He may bounce back now and add to the smooth success gained over 1m4f at Fairyhouse last summer. A renewal of Bellewstown rivalry between Lariat, Tenth Amendment and Fattan could have a big bearing on the outcome. If Breagagh gets the trip he could make his presence felt.

17:35 Ceallach

A bunch of these have similar credentials; namely CEALLACH, Vega Magnifico, Cougar, Newfoundland and Impero. However, the first-named could have more scope to improve now stepping up in trip and gets the nod. Paris Lights has 5l to make up with the selection but could run him close if getting away on terms, though there is a question about him at present.
