13:40 – Aljady

The former Robert Cowell-trained ALJADY showed that he retains ability on his return at the Curragh. Now with Denis Hogan, he may be good enough to deal with a five-strong challenge from the McAuley stable which does well in claimers. Tai Sing Yeh is the most appealing of the five on current form. Gobi Star making his Dundalk debut, is another interesting runner.

14:15 – Hilltops Bear

Brasilian Princess showed ability in Britain and any market support could be significant on debut for a new yard. However, HILLTOP’S BEAR (nap) is preferred with the switch back to all-weather in his favour.

14:45 – Oh Cleo

Aidan O’Brien’s runner Cyclamen has had plenty of chances and is not certain to run up to an official rating of 83 which gives her a very good chance in theory. Slight preference is for the once-raced OH CLEO who was only a short head behind an O’Brien-trained subsequent winner when fourth on her debut at Navan.

15:15 – War Hero

James McAuley has a strong hand with his trio. Caesar’s Comet was a bit of an eyecatcher here last time when meeting some trouble in running. However, it might be worth taking a chance on stablemate WAR HERO who is a course specialist back on a very good mark.

15:45 – Silver Nemo

It was a big run from SILVER NEMO when beaten less than a length here last time and he can be the one to take advantage of being in the weaker division of this handicap. Cousin Shay could be the main danger if he comes on for his recent return having looked promising last winter.

16:15 – Instrumental

You could certainly make a stong case for recent Curragh winner Breezy Zoff for a stable that could do no wrong at the moment, but a 13lb rise for her Curragh win seems steep enough so preference is for the consistent INSTRUMENTAL. He is already a C&D winner, has the services of the champion jockey and a decent draw in stall six so there is plenty to like.

16:45 – Ballycommon Chapel

A mark of 57 looks on the lenient side for BALLYCOMMON CHAPEL who has produced some promising performances at this venue and she can come on for last month’s return. She’s narrowly preferred to Je T’ai Porte who should appreciate a longer trip after a good run 12 days ago.

17:15 – Gemini Man

A longer trip might help GEMINI MAN get his head in front for the first time following two solid runs on turf since returning. Four-time C&D winner, Ragtime Red, will appreciate a return to this trip.
