Could have more to offer on handicap debut but has no experience of this sort of ground

Naas second relishes heavy; claimer negates his 3lb rise and considered a major player

Midfield Lincoln finish no disgrace although ideally wants further than this

Lincoln fourth down in class and likely big player on ground he clearly handles

Strong-finishing fourth over inadequate 6f at Naas; could run a big race back at best trip
12 (8)	Secret Magician b Seamie Heffernan · Martin Hassett	Seamie Heffernan · Martin Hassett	129	—	41032-	80	96	79	164d	—	—	+12	19.7	10 10%
Runs well fresh and no problem with ground but could find a few stronger in the finish
10 (12)	Cheers Again b Robert Whearty(7) · Paul W Flynn	Robert Whearty(7) · Paul W Flynn	131	t	0041-1	82	87	10	94d	—	—	+13	19.9	10 10%
Rapidly improving polytrack performer but heavy ground a definite concern here
7 (9)	Spanish Tenor ch Cian MacRedmond(5) · Adrian Mcguinness	Cian MacRedmond(5) · Adrian Mcguinness	134	—	0400-4	85	101	101	13d	—	—	+6	9.6	25 4%
Downward trajectory of late; fair bit to find with Vocal Studies on recent Naas running
1 (2)	Maud Gonne Spirit ch Shane Foley · Mrs John Harrington	Shane Foley · Mrs John Harrington	140	p	4/10-0	91	95	45	14d	—	—	+8	11	33 3%
Lincoln also-ran has conditions to suit but may still be just that bit high in handicap
14 (11)	Navagio b Dylan Browne McMonagle · R P Cody	Dylan Browne McMonagle · R P Cody	126	h	15200-	77	99	95	183d	—	—	+9	12.2	33 3%
Ended last season with sound defeats, probably best watched on return for new yard

On a steady decline and recent Naas comeback run wasn't too encouraging
13 (4)	Coumshingaun b Mpumelelo Mjoka(3) · Kevin Thomas Coleman	Mpumelelo Mjoka(3) · Kevin Thomas Coleman	126	h	0050-0	77	97	98	13d	—	—	+5	7.2	50 2%
Handicapper seems to have her measure right now and this trip stretches her
NR (1)	All Lies Ahead b TBC · W Mccreery	· W Mccreery	133	—	412-1	84	99	85	3d	—	—	—	18.5	—
Wednesday's Leopardstown winner with likely more to offer but this looks much tougher
NR (13)	Big Baby Bull ch TBC · Denis Gerard Hogan	· Denis Gerard Hogan	132	tp	248-00	83	100	81	13d	—	—	—	8.3	—
Both runs this year way below his best and hard to see him playing a major role here
