The drop back to 1m is likely to suit and could go well if ridden prominently
5 (2)	Helpmeout ch J:Nathan Crosse T:W Mccreery	J:Nathan Crosse T:W Mccreery	140	—	164-44	78	83	77	35d	—	—	-3	11	11/2 15%
Two good runs in competitive handicaps this season, most recently over C&D last month
7 (14)	Touching Clouds b J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	J:Chris Hayes T:D K Weld	137	b	61-820	75	92	78	15d	—	—	0	8.8	15/2 12%
Fair chance off this mark at her best but needs to bounce back after disappointing at Naas
11 (7)	Thefullbackline ch J:Luke McAteer T:Patrick T Foley	J:Luke McAteer T:Patrick T Foley	129	p	36-500	67	88	61	13d	—	—	-2	6.6	17/2 11%
Ran well at the Curragh latest despite getting no run; no surprise if he's thereabouts
3 (12)	Spanish Tenor ch J:Cian MacRedmond(5) T:Adrian Mcguinness	J:Cian MacRedmond(5) T:Adrian Mcguinness	142	—	473229	80	91	64	13d	—	—	+9	16.3	11 9%
Solid form this season; front-runner and every chance of being in the shake-up at his best
10 (1)	Emeric br J:Colin Keane T:Paul W Flynn	J:Colin Keane T:Paul W Flynn	132	—	052-11	70	81	-	—	—	—	+1	6.6	14 7%
Dual Dundalk winner; the champion jockey is booked and the stable is in terrific form
1 (10)	Coins Cross ch J:Declan McDonogh T:Eddie & Patrick Harty	J:Declan McDonogh T:Eddie & Patrick Harty	142	b	201-03	80	84	71	28d	—	—	0	10.6	13/2 13%
Equally effective over 7f/1m and every drop of rain which falls will suit; could go close
9 (4)	My Kurkum b J:Ben Coen T:A J Martin	J:Ben Coen T:A J Martin	135	h	4290-0	73	89	66	13d	—	—	+2	7.1	16 6%
Not a bad run at the Curragh; dropping back to 1m may well suit but a bit more is needed
2 (5)	Mulgrave b J:Donagh O'Connor T:John C Mcconnell	J:Donagh O'Connor T:John C Mcconnell	142	ht	211150	80	90	12	35d	—	—	+15	18.6	22 5%
Handicapper may have a tight enough grip of him now and others preferred here
8 (11)	Eastern Wind b J:James Ryan(7) T:T G Mccourt	J:James Ryan(7) T:T G Mccourt	136	p	-00009	74	90	42	28d	—	—	0	8.4	17/2 11%
Completely out of form this season and hard to fancy despite a plummeting handicap mark
6 (3)	Pierre Lapin b J:Adam Caffrey(5) T:Adrian Mcguinness	J:Adam Caffrey(5) T:Adrian Mcguinness	140	p	-60000	78	91	45	13d	—	—	+1	9.4	17/2 11%
Down to a mark of 78 now and more than interesting if he rediscovered some form
14 (13)	Play It Again Zaam b J:Conor Maxwell T:John Andrew Kinsella	J:Conor Maxwell T:John Andrew Kinsella	126	p	-73575	73	87	70	29d	—	—	+5	7.4	33 3%
Disappointing on his handicap debut at Limerick last month; cheekpieces tried here
12 (8)	Drakensberg ch J:Robbie Colgan T:A J Martin	J:Robbie Colgan T:A J Martin	128	t	9138-0	66	86	16	13d	—	—	+3	4.5	66/1 1%
Beaten a long way at the Curragh two weeks ago; should improve but has too much to find
4 (9)	Wild Mountain b J:Gary Carroll T:J J Lambe	J:Gary Carroll T:J J Lambe	142	—	13/3P-	80	79	-	427d	—	—	+6	7.9	80/1 1%
