4 (6)	Trueba Brown J:Wesley Joyce(7) T:Edmond Daniel Linehan	J:Wesley Joyce(7) T:Edmond Daniel Linehan	138	p	004P25	61	76	59	14d	—	—	-5	9.5	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Gone some time without winning but model of consistency of late and sound chance again
10 (15)	Shes Local Brown J:Colin Keane T:Noel Meade	J:Colin Keane T:Noel Meade	132	t	-08839	60	68	51	15d	—	—	-3	7.5	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Tends to go off big prices, including under Colin Keane last time; hard to make a case
5 (13)	Hope And Innocence Bay J:Ben Coen T:J P Murtagh	J:Ben Coen T:J P Murtagh	134	—	-49495	62	73	49	15d	—	—	-5	6.3	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Tends to give her running and latest Dundalk fifth eye-catching; could be ready to strike
14 (10)	Kinda Tiny Chestnut J:Gavin Ryan T:Timothy Doyle	J:Gavin Ryan T:Timothy Doyle	127	—	069067	55	72	54	32d	—	—	-5	3.8	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Hampered early at Gowran, and with clear run should have some sort of chance
7 (7)	Alfarida Bay J:Andrew Slattery T:Andrew Slattery	J:Andrew Slattery T:Andrew Slattery	132	—	421920	60	68	48	15d	—	—	+4	12.2	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Twice faded to nothing (5s) recent starts but in good form generally; some risks attached
8 (1)	Doctor Grace Bay J:Ronan Whelan T:M Halford & T Collins	J:Ronan Whelan T:M Halford & T Collins	132	—	92-316	60	70	35	196d	—	—	-2	4.2	3.25/1	14 7%
AW winner for Michael Halford in February; not at that level subsequently but should do OK
11 (20)	General Idea Bay J:Kyle McHugh(10) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	J:Kyle McHugh(10) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	131	tb	070505	54	68	47	14d	—	—	-3	2.4	3.75/1	16 6%
Was entered in claimer lately; in decline for some time, though latest mildly encouraging
15 (12)	Florence Thompson Bay J:Jamie Powell(5) T:J G Murray	J:Jamie Powell(5) T:J G Murray	125	p	238900	48	74	58	10d	—	—	-4	2.2	4.25/1	18 6%
Front-running third here in June on straight course; poor since; may do better here
3 (5)	Racing Royalty Bay J:Nathan Crosse T:Gillian Scott	J:Nathan Crosse T:Gillian Scott	140	b	2-0793	63	76	49	67d	—	—	+2	8.5	2.75/1	11/1 8%
In and out in maidens but his handicap offering at Limerick was more encouraging; noted
18 (11)	Step Back In Time Chestnut J:Robbie Colgan T:Christopher David Timmons	J:Robbie Colgan T:Christopher David Timmons	124	—	8-0846	47	68	53	10d	—	—	-4	1.6	3.25/1	14 7%
Seemed to be getting there with Naas fourth; backwards step since at Curragh
16 (3)	Shamastar Chestnut J:Adam Caffrey(5) T:David Marnane	J:Adam Caffrey(5) T:David Marnane	125	v	-60007	53	74	35	37d	—	—	-3	2.4	4.75/1	20 5%
Very poor in handicaps and can only watch; visored
1 (4)	Gometra Ginty Bay J:Sean D Bowen(7) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	J:Sean D Bowen(7) T:Denis Gerard Hogan	142	—	473009	65	74	52	21d	—	—	-8	9.7	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Slips into a 0-65 after tame runs, most recently in a claimer, which is hardly encouraging
6 (18)	Miss Molly T Bay J:Cillian McConnell(7) T:John C Mcconnell	J:Cillian McConnell(7) T:John C Mcconnell	134	h	4000-0	57	73	55	14d	—	—	-1	2.9	5.25/1	22 5%
Form tapered off a little for previous yard; stable/seasonal debut was not encouraging
NR (9)	Second Fiddle Bay J:TBC T:C P Donoghue	J: T:C P Donoghue	132	t	9-0007	55	68	44	109d	—	—	-9	5.5	12.25/1	50 2%
Latest bid in May at least something to work on; stable a long time without a winner
NR (17)	Badinage Bay J:TBC T:E J Oneill	J: T:E J Oneill	124	p	080500	47	61	38	49d	—	—	-11	4.2	9.75/1	40 3%
Well-held in handicaps so far; hard to fancy
NR (21)	Treble Cone Chestnut J:TBC T:Gerard Keane	J: T:Gerard Keane	124	b	500-80	47	64	26	48d	—	—	-5	1.9	12.25/1	50 2%
Third reserve; course winner quiet so far this season
13 (14)	Flaming Ohara Chestnut J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	128	b	5-900	56	62	26	32d	—	—	-1	2.4	6.75/1	28 4%
50s, down the field on handicap debut at Gowran (soft); blinkers now
NR (2)	Black Bridie Bay J:TBC T:J Larkin	J: T:J Larkin	124	t	08-000	47	64	-	1d	—	—	-5	1.9	16.25/1	66 2%
Second reserve; down the field both starts this year (80s)
R19 (19)	Salt Whistle Bay Bay J:Seamie Heffernan T:Charles Coakley	J:Seamie Heffernan T:Charles Coakley	124	v	-79600	47	72	34	32d	—	—	-2	0.7	10.00/1	40/1 2%
First reserve; hard to fancy on struggles this year
2 (8)	Gurkha Girl Bay J:Leigh Roche T:Michael Patrick Fenton	J:Leigh Roche T:Michael Patrick Fenton	141	p	315-00	64	71	-	10d	—	—	+1	4.3	10.00/1	40/1 2%
Another winner in Britain; 33s, nothing at the Curragh lately; can watch in the headgear
12 (16)	Lady Wingalong Grey J:Cian Horgan(7) T:Edmond Kent	J:Cian Horgan(7) T:Edmond Kent	129	—	08000	52	74	33	33d	—	—	-1	0.9	19.75/1	80 1%
Nothing much in maidens; best watched from high draw
