Improved last year; stable in fine form and could be capable of improving on this mark
6 (2)	Lost President Bay J:Donagh O'Connor T:Ross O'Sullivan	J:Donagh O'Connor T:Ross O'Sullivan	129	—	7077-1	71	83	73	13d	—	—	0	21.9	0.88/1	7/2 22%
C&D winner last week; up 7lb and this is tougher again but he could well be progressive
1 (4)	Iowntheball Bay J:Chris Hayes T:Kevin Prendergast	J:Chris Hayes T:Kevin Prendergast	140	—	317-	82	76	-	106d	—	—	+4	21.7	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Mark of 82 does not look particularly favourable and is probably best watched
2 (7)	Gran Habano Chestnut J:W J Lee T:Adrian Murray	J:W J Lee T:Adrian Murray	138	—	4873-	80	81	19	73d	—	—	+1	14.5	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Close third in a 6f race here in November; trip an unknown but comes into it if he stays
7 (6)	Amber Blossom Bay J:Rory Mulligan(7) T:J P Murtagh	J:Rory Mulligan(7) T:J P Murtagh	125	—	09917-	67	83	75	40d	—	—	+5	13.8	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Disappointed in a nursery here last month; could be high enough in the handicap
3 (1)	Fortuna Vera Chestnut J:Hugh Horgan(5) T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Hugh Horgan(5) T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	137	—	61-	79	76	43	61d	—	—	+11	19.5	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Step up to 1m should suit and there should be plenty more to come from her
5 (3)	Habari Bay J:Mikey Sheehy T:M Halford & T Collins	J:Mikey Sheehy T:M Halford & T Collins	130	p	058-	72	80	40	66d	—	—	+3	6.6	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Gelded since his last run and cheekpieces tried; not that well treated but has scope
