12:25 – Makfils

A hard race to assess, but it may be worth taking a chance with MAKFILS who has some fair handicap form and a handy weight. Denis Hogan has a fine record in claiming races and has three runners here. His Bal De Rio is the highest-rated runner in the field, but Aide De Camp is more interesting if excused his last run, a remark that also applies to Gordon Elliott’s runner Elusive Sea.

12:57 – Buddy One

Though it is only three days since he took a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle, BUDDY ONE didn’t have a hard race then and should be able to defy the quick turnaround with a 7lb penalty. C&D winner Tomjackwilliam, Carbon King and Seangoell look to be his sternest opposition. 

13:32 – Walk With Paul

On the basis of two good runs at this venue WALK WITH PAUL may have the beating of obvious danger One Cool Lady. If back to form after a disappointing Thurles run Rocco’s Inspiration may get into the money. Hi Ski is another who can make her presence felt.

14:07 – Trust Me Nate

Experience could make the difference for Gordon Elliott’s TRUST ME NATE if this comes down to a battle with the Willie Mullins newcomer Paul Marvel. Lucky Zebo is possibly the pick of the remainder, though the very experienced Flat maiden Knocknakilla has been running well in Dundalk handicaps and has fair turf form on soft ground as well.

14:42 – Natural Breeze

Few of these appeal, though handicap debutants The Son Of Brega, Mahlers Cove and Lovely Reaction would be of interest if the market spoke in their favour. Though NATURAL BREEZE is returning from a long absence, he is a consistent type and his yard is going well at present, so is a token selection.

15:17 – Caoimhes Pet (NAP)

Having finished runner-up to the progressive Little Mixup at Punchestown last time, CAOIMHES PET (NAP) is unlikely to meet a rival of that calibre today, so can get off the mark. Pont Audemar was poor on handicap debut here last time but is surely better than that. Whip Whitaker could run well. 

15:52 – Blizzard of Oz

Probably safe to take the hint from Patrick Mullins who sides with BLIZZARD OF OZ in this rematch with stablemate Captain Cody who finished 3/4l in front of him at Punchestown. The selection has the merit of a good C&D second which prompted his purchase.
