14:00 Spartan Army
Having been just a neck behind A Shin Undine on seasonal debut at Sligo, SPARTAN ARMY can reverse those placings on the same terms with that run under his girth. Regally Blonde should have stepped forward from her recent Curragh debut and is a danger.

14:35 Onameridance
The distance of this race should suit ONAMERIDANCE who was running on well at the finish of a 1m Gowran event that is working out well. Likely dangers are Highland King, well fancied when runner-up at Leopardstown in his first handicap, Chaos Control who went close at Leopardstown on Thursday, and Rock Of Candy, placed at Gowran on her first two handicap starts.
15:10 Prime Chief
Jarlath Fahey produced PRIME CHIEF to win this race last year on his seasonal debut. He may repeat that feat with the help of a useful 7lb claimed by Jake Coen. There could be more to come from Cork winner Fennor Cross and the versatile All Class could make her presence felt.
15:45 Atavique
In-foal mare ATAVIQUE may cope with the 7lb rise imposed for winning at Fairyhouse three weeks ago. This looks open, and it is not hard to make a case for the likes Coill Na Sionainne, runner-up on her last two starts, as well as handicap debutantes Eclat De Lumiere and Gradulations.
16:25 Cougar (NAP)
Having finished 1.25l in front of Shajak in a 1m2f Navan maiden last time, yet is receiving 8lb from that rival today, COUGAR (nap) should be capable of breaking his duck up to a trip which looks as if it will suit. Manu Et Corde is better than he has shown lately.

17:05 Storm Steps
Raised 5lb for a recent Fairyhouse win, STORM STEPS is still able to run off a mark well below his best AW rating. He can follow up, perhaps at the main expense of Loudest Whisper who has shown fair form on the Flat and over hurdles lately. Wild Shot reverts from hurdling with definite prospects. Nailed Down is worth considering after a much-improved display last week.
17:40 Busselton
Joseph O’Brien supplied the winner of the Fairyhouse maiden in which Dancila was second last week. That should give him a good idea of how smart jumper BUSSELTON will fare here on his first Flat start since a sole attempt in France in 2019. Royal Romeo and Scenic Look may fight it out for minor honours.
