1 (6)	Starford Bay J:Chris Hayes T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Chris Hayes T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	140	—	7971	74	74	63	16d	—	—	-9	27.8	0.38/1	6/4 40%
Much improved for step up in trip on handicap debut; 7lb rise may not prevent a follow-up
10 (4)	Coulstys Way Bay J:Jack Kearney(3) T:Patrick Magee	J:Jack Kearney(3) T:Patrick Magee	128	h	40-321	62	72	63	43d	—	—	-10	8.4	1.13/1	9/2 18%
1m4f winner here last month; 8lb rise makes this a lot tougher but should make a bold bid
3 (8)	Flying Fortress Bay J:Gary Carroll T:Gavin Cromwell	J:Gary Carroll T:Gavin Cromwell	138	—	28-149	72	78	55	20d	—	—	-7	10.5	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Underwhelming favourite last twice in handicaps; questions to answer
7 (7)	Elusive Duke Grey J:Ronan Whelan T:Kevin Thomas Coleman	J:Ronan Whelan T:Kevin Thomas Coleman	131	—	800541	65	79	61	12d	—	—	+5	17.4	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Justified market support upped in trip at Leopardstown; 7lb rise but likely more to offer
4 (9)	Palmezzano Bay J:Declan McDonogh T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	J:Declan McDonogh T:Joseph Patrick O'Brien	138	p	05-72P	72	75	73	51d	—	—	-1	8.2	2.25/1	9/1 10%
Excuses last time; penultimate Naas second puts him in the mix and cheekpieces tried
5 (5)	Kevin The Great Bay J:Shane Foley T:Mrs John Harrington	J:Shane Foley T:Mrs John Harrington	136	—	646	70	71	49	20d	—	—	-1	7.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Potential improver on handicap debut returned to this longer trip
2 (10)	William F Browne Bay J:Colin Keane T:Paul W Flynn	J:Colin Keane T:Paul W Flynn	140	—	101-06	74	78	29	52d	—	—	+3	7.1	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Both runs this term for new yard poor but has been dropped 6lb and Colin Keane back on
9 (2)	Electric Beauty Grey J:Wesley Joyce(3) T:Michael Mulvany	J:Wesley Joyce(3) T:Michael Mulvany	130	—	4-379	64	76	58	32d	—	—	0	4.7	7.00/1	28/1 3%
First start for Mick Mulvany and open to improvement entering handicap company
6 (3)	Tracker Issue Bay J:Ross Coakley T:J S Bolger	J:Ross Coakley T:J S Bolger	134	—	037	68	69	44	38d	—	—	+4	7.4	8.25/1	33/1 3%
Mild maiden promise but opening mark looks on the high side
8 (1)	Expert Analysis Bay J:Rory Cleary T:Dermot Kilmartin	J:Rory Cleary T:Dermot Kilmartin	131	—	07698-	65	78	52	255d	—	—	+2	4.2	16.50/1	66/1 1%
Didn't really progress at two; belated seasonal debut for new yard; of limited appeal
