Trained locally; can lead and much better at Leopardstown (scene of both wins) last time
2 (12)	Barnhill Rose Bay J:Daniel King(5) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	J:Daniel King(5) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	141	p	218158	64	71	63	13d	—	—	+1	14.5	1.00/1	5 20%
Usually 6s or shorter this season and won twice; can lead; really consistent
1 (18)	The Bog Bank Bay J:James Ryan(7) T:T G Mccourt	J:James Ryan(7) T:T G Mccourt	142	tp	023173	65	71	45	14d	—	—	+1	18.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Has fine course record and was up there with her best on latest (AW), chance is clear
4 (4)	James Henry Bay J:Colin Keane T:Leanne Breen	J:Colin Keane T:Leanne Breen	136	p	27-209	59	72	53	14d	—	—	-8	6.3	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Chance on his form for Denis Hogan; pretty lifeless both starts (AW) since
6 (6)	Sunset Nova Chestnut J:Andrew Slattery T:Andrew Slattery	J:Andrew Slattery T:Andrew Slattery	136	b	028186	59	74	53	48d	—	—	+3	10.4	2.50/1	11 9%
Seeking tenth career win; last couple of efforts not good enough; break may have helped
13 (14)	Double Martini Chestnut J:Siobhan Rutledge(3) T:John C Mcconnell	J:Siobhan Rutledge(3) T:John C Mcconnell	124	t	30-250	47	72	56	54d	—	—	-6	2.1	2.75/1	12 8%

15 (10)	Sagittarius Rising Chestnut J:Chris Hayes T:John C Mcconnell	J:Chris Hayes T:John C Mcconnell	124	tp	/0060-	47	68	29	344d	—	—	-4	1.6	3.25/1	14 7%
Another McConnell runner hard to make a case for; usually huge odds
10 (8)	I Know I Can Bay J:J M Sheridan T:Fergal Birrane	J:J M Sheridan T:Fergal Birrane	131	—	067388	54	75	52	18d	—	—	-1	3.9	4.25/1	18 6%
Now 0-26 and hard to be any way bullish but each-way chance on this year's handicap form
8 (11)	Pimstrel Bay J:Robbie Colgan T:Laura Hourigan	J:Robbie Colgan T:Laura Hourigan	133	p	1800-0	56	73	44	41d	—	—	-2	2.9	4.75/1	20 5%
Form tailed off a bit last season and resumed with a poor runner; seems best on soft
9 (7)	Drish Melody Bay J:Tom Kiely-Marshall(7) T:Donal Commins	J:Tom Kiely-Marshall(7) T:Donal Commins	131	—	7130-0	54	70	39	9d	—	—	-3	2.4	6.00/1	25 4%
Ground-versatile but hard to predict and not sure what to expect
3 (9)	Indiana Grey Grey J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:Patrick Martin	J:Dylan Browne McMonagle T:Patrick Martin	138	tp	612347	61	72	51	158d	—	—	+5	8.7	6.00/1	25 4%
6-52, 2-21 on Turf; can miss break, did so sole visit here, running well in circumstances
NR (3)	Qaabil Bay J:TBC T:Peter Fahey	J: T:Peter Fahey	128	—	052480	51	74	29	5d	—	—	-3	3.4	8.00/1	33 3%
Third reserve; 1-31, draw at least a help; place chance at his best
14 (15)	Kratos Chestnut J:Shane Foley T:John C Mcconnell	J:Shane Foley T:John C Mcconnell	124	p	087450	47	75	52	48d	—	—	-3	1.1	4.75/1	20 5%
Regressive sort; 1-20; first visit here; hard to fancy
NR (1)	Helmet Star Chestnut J:TBC T:J Larkin	J: T:J Larkin	124	t	00-000	47	57	-	67d	—	—	-5	2.1	8.00/1	33 3%
Second reserve; no realistic chance on recent form
12 (2)	Praying Mantis Bay J:Cian MacRedmond(5) T:J Larkin	J:Cian MacRedmond(5) T:J Larkin	126	—	688-00	49	71	-	54d	—	—	-2	0.9	8.00/1	33 3%
Cut very little ice for this trainer and hard to fancy; competition up front here

Third reserve; remarkable she was 22s at Killarney (poor) given Gowran third; risky
7 (5)	Roman Palace Bay J:Paddy Harnett(5) T:Luke Comer	J:Paddy Harnett(5) T:Luke Comer	134	—	70400	57	72	50	12d	—	—	-1	3	5.25/1	22 5%
Stable had 200s first and 200s third in same race lately; this one is not easily fancied
5 (13)	Maponus Bay J:Ben Coen T:E J Oneill	J:Ben Coen T:E J Oneill	136	b	4020-0	59	65	68	13d	—	—	0	3	9.75/1	40 3%
Seems to like an ease; 33s, faded badly on recent Irish debut; Ben Coen rides again
