1 (7)	Physique Bay J:Seamie Heffernan T:Micky Fenton	J:Seamie Heffernan T:Micky Fenton	140	—	094392	86	91	83	9d	—	—	-1	22.8	3/1 25%
In good form after recent near misses and returning to 7f looks the right move
3 (6)	Sara Valentina Grey J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	134	—	9-14	87	81	72	34d	—	—	-5	15	10/3 23%
Limerick maiden winner; surely failed to give her true running on handicap debut
4 (1)	Benavente Bay J:Wayne Lordan T:Kevin Thomas Coleman	J:Wayne Lordan T:Kevin Thomas Coleman	131	—	132880	77	92	85	13d	—	—	-6	15	4/1 20%
All three wins have come on the AW and needs to leave his last couple of effors behind
2 (8)	Facethepuckout Bay J:Colin Keane T:M D O'Callaghan	J:Colin Keane T:M D O'Callaghan	136	—	20410-	82	90	76	262d	—	—	+7	19.6	11/2 15%
7lb above last winning mark (here in October) and lacking a run perhaps not ideal
5 (2)	Never Cry Never Chestnut J:Shane Foley T:Gerard O'Leary	J:Shane Foley T:Gerard O'Leary	131	—	6551-	77	96	38	245d	—	—	+4	22	9/2 18%
Lightly raced 4yo who won an AW maiden on final appearance; brings potential
7 (4)	Lady Arwen Bay J:Cian Horgan(7) T:Conor O'Dwyer	J:Cian Horgan(7) T:Conor O'Dwyer	129	—	140-60	75	93	61	13d	—	—	+3	7.3	20/1 5%
Ran poorly at Gowran in April and a similar story at Leopardstown two weeks ago
8 (5)	Bella Colombia Bay J:Nathan Crosse T:W McCreery	J:Nathan Crosse T:W McCreery	126	—	179-00	79	91	52	49d	—	—	+5	8.2	22/1 4%
Has been highly tried since debut success; quiet on handicap debut latest
NR (3)	Not Forgotten Grey J:Ronan Whelan T:M Halford & T Collins	J:Ronan Whelan T:M Halford & T Collins	131	p	-53640	77	91	72	48d	—	—	—	7.7	—
Pretty consistent until blowing out last time and could go well with cheekpieces back on
NR (9)	Ice Cold In Alex Bay J:Jamie Powell(3) T:K J Condon	J:Jamie Powell(3) T:K J Condon	126	t	0-5330	72	94	83	6d	—	—	—	5.5	—
At his best on goodish ground and with a strong pace to chase; might not get either
