Saw it out strongly to win over 1m last month; should stay this longer trip

Expensive to follow in handicaps; new trip here but hard to be confident in

C&D handicap debut winner in February; could have more to offer off 4lb higher mark

Soundly beaten in three maidens last year; opening mark looks high

Type to make an impact in handicaps but this trip could stretch him
9 (3)	Moutarde Bay J:Gary Carroll T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Gary Carroll T:Gavin Cromwell	125	—	900-	57	70	-	159d	—	—	-3	3.5	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Not much to take from 3 turf runs but potential improver switched to AW on handicap bow
5 (10)	Zenato Chestnut J:W J Lee T:Henry De Bromhead	J:W J Lee T:Henry De Bromhead	138	—	079-8	70	74	57	21d	—	—	+1	6.4	4.50/1	18/1 5%
4.5l off Galician Girl; longer trip may suit but hard to see him reversing that form
8 (7)	Liberty Looming Chestnut J:Rory Cleary T:J S Bolger	J:Rory Cleary T:J S Bolger	128	—	006-0	60	65	-	25d	—	—	-2	4.1	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Better for recent comeback run; don't rule out here on AW debut with this step up in trip
2 (6)	Kiki Roberts Bay J:Neil Ryan(7) T:Noel Meade	J:Neil Ryan(7) T:Noel Meade	140	—	9318-	72	70	-	199d	—	—	+10	15.4	6.25/1	25/1 4%
AW debut for seasonal return and may just need this
10 (5)	Gregorina Grey J:Ronan Whelan T:Adrian McGuinness	J:Ronan Whelan T:Adrian McGuinness	123	v	4-3888	55	75	50	19d	—	—	-1	2.1	8.25/1	33/1 3%

Step up in trip should suit so could improve on handicap debut
12 (9)	So Diligent Bay J:Danny Sheehy T:T G McCourt	J:Danny Sheehy T:T G McCourt	119	—	8977-	51	70	57	147d	—	—	-1	0.6	25.00/1	100/1 1%
