Knocking on the door of late over various trips; big chance if handling quicker ground

Last week's Tipperary run encouraging and longer trip here could bring improvement
9	Clandara Bay J:Conor Stone-Walsh(5) T:Liz Doyle	J:Conor Stone-Walsh(5) T:Liz Doyle	160	—	090/6-	87	89	42	27d	—	—	+4	11.4	2.25/1	9/1 10%

10	Noble Hilltop Bay J:Kieren Buckley T:Edward Buckley	J:Kieren Buckley T:Edward Buckley	160	—	64665-	95	93	82	87d	—	—	+7	12.9	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Upped in trip on first start for new yard and probably best watched

Glimpse of ability in Down Royal maiden 15 days ago; longer trip could suit

Hard to fancy on recent handicap runs although yard do seem to be returning to form
13	Seriously Ava Bay J:Sean Flanagan T:David Harry Kelly	J:Sean Flanagan T:David Harry Kelly	154	—	/0P06-	81	90	48	301d	—	—	+5	9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Change of yards will need to bring about serious improvement to feature
2	Granpa Ger Bay J:Danny Mullins T:Anthony Mullins	J:Danny Mullins T:Anthony Mullins	166	—	0855P-	93	96	60	117d	—	—	+8	11.7	5.00/1	20/1 5%
Mark hard to justify at present but only sixth start so improvement still possible
15	Stellar Stow Bay J:Mr D Doyle(7) T:Timothy Doyle	J:Mr D Doyle(7) T:Timothy Doyle	153	b	3/0/0-	80	98	23	35d	—	—	+7	9.8	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Two years off before last month's Naas run; better for that but still best watched
5	One Flew Eau Verte b/br J:Sam Ewing T:Peter Fahey	J:Sam Ewing T:Peter Fahey	164	—	676-	91	81	47	235d	—	—	+8	11	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Three maiden runs none too revealing, market likely best guide on handicap debut
6	She's Tobias Bay J:E Walsh T:Ciaran Murphy	J:E Walsh T:Ciaran Murphy	163	t	9RPF-0	90	95	74	15d	—	—	+8	10.7	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Faller on last month's return and well held at Down Royal latest; of limited appeal

Some promise in maiden hurdles; worth a look on handicap debut if getting a run; reserve
