0-14 but still early days with this yard; kept on to be second at Wexford (2m1f, good)
7	Jinxs Link Chestnut J:Dillon Maxwell(7) T:M M Rice	J:Dillon Maxwell(7) T:M M Rice	160	—	0090-3	87	92	67	19d	—	—	0	17.3	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Greatly improved at Ballinrobe, third of 15 in higher grade, and that after being free
8	Natural Breeze Chestnut J:James O'Sullivan(5) T:P J Rothwell	J:James O'Sullivan(5) T:P J Rothwell	158	—	24/60-	85	100	34	113d	—	—	+3	11.1	2.25/1	10 10%
Followed up a Clonmel win with three successive seconds here in 2021; lightly raced since
13	Wee Jerry Bay J:Neil Ryan(7) T:Neill Mccluskey	J:Neil Ryan(7) T:Neill Mccluskey	153	t	067-6P	80	98	79	18d	—	—	+1	9.9	2.50/1	11 9%
Unplaced in ten starts over hurdles and very little to recommend
3	Littletwinklestar Bay J:Niall Prendergast(7) T:Maike Magnussen	J:Niall Prendergast(7) T:Maike Magnussen	164	h	FP08-4	91	97	85	15d	—	—	+5	12.4	2.75/1	12 8%
Third run over hurdles saw her finish a respectable fourth in a Tramore maiden; h'cap bow
11	Globetrottersivola Bay J:Ricky Doyle T:P J Rothwell	J:Ricky Doyle T:P J Rothwell	153	—	9P70-8	80	91	61	19d	—	—	+3	9.1	3.75/1	16 6%
11-race maiden over hurdles; ran okay after nearly 6 months off when eighth at Ballinrobe
4	Goodie Girl Bay J:Conor Maxwell T:Dermot A Mcloughlin	J:Conor Maxwell T:Dermot A Mcloughlin	162	—	9-60	89	91	70	23d	—	—	+7	10.7	6.00/1	25 4%
Beaten similar distances (30l/35l) in maidens; no surprise if she's competitive in h'caps
2	Littel Flour Bay J:Mike O'Connor(5) T:Declan Queally	J:Mike O'Connor(5) T:Declan Queally	168	ht	0P-374	95	101	68	1d	—	—	+2	14.9	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Repeat of her 3l third at Tipperary would bring her into it; fourth here on Saturday
NR	Masterstonemason Grey J:TBC T:F Costello	J: T:F Costello	161	p	0583P-	88	102	56	238d	—	—	-40	30.1	8.00/1	33 3%
Scored at a big price at Limerick in March of last year; shown little since
10	Crecerelle Bay J:Jody McGarvey T:S Wilson	J:Jody McGarvey T:S Wilson	153	—	/600P-	80	101	91	93d	—	—	+3	9.4	4.75/1	20 5%
Modest maiden nowadays in all codes; pulled up at Down Royal in March; makes no appeal
1	Billable Grant Bay J:Gavin Brouder(5) T:C A Mcbratney	J:Gavin Brouder(5) T:C A Mcbratney	168	b	P098-9	95	92	55	44d	—	—	+8	12.6	5.25/1	22 5%
Poor handicap form; gets a chance to race in the bottom grade but hard to fancy; blinkers
6	Copia Verborum Bay J:Liam McKenna(5) T:J J Lambe	J:Liam McKenna(5) T:J J Lambe	160	t	/80P-U	87	96	38	16d	—	—	+5	10.9	4.25/1	18 6%
Yard amongst winners but 13-race maiden over hurdles was in poor form last year
12	Guest Bay J:Charlie O'Dwyer(5) T:H Smyth	J:Charlie O'Dwyer(5) T:H Smyth	153	—	490P-0	80	69	37	48d	—	—	+6	8.2	8.00/1	33 3%
Appears very modest and tailed off on first run of the year at Down Royal
