| 3rd | 1 | 14 |
Lady Plimsoll (F)
Shaped well when second of 14 in 2m handicap at Dundalk in December (third won next time). Hood removed for this drop back in trip and she merits serious consideration returning from a career-best effort.

Wesley Joyce | M O'Callaghan | 4 | 63.5 kg |

Acheron (G)
Matched the fair form he'd shown in France when second of 6 on Dundalk handicap debut. Left Daniel James Murphy and was off 18 months prior to unseating early on stable/hurdle debut at Cork and he isn't totally exposed returning to the Fla…

Satono Chevalier (G)
[PT]
Bounced back to form in first-time visor/refitted tongue strap when third of 26 in handicap (33/1) at the Curragh (1m). On a handy mark and should be in the mix if another change of headgear has similar effect.

Reese Holohan | Aidan Melia | 8 | 61.7 kg |

Lady Mary Heath (F)
Yard has had success with this family and she showed improved form when fourth of 26 on Curragh handicap debut (1m) following 8 months off. Pedigree offers some hope that this lightly-raced 4-y-o will stay the longer trip, too.

J Cleary | A A Howard | 4 | 60.8 kg |

Kevin The Great (G)
Lightly-raced maiden was again well backed when sixth of 16 in handicap at Naas in October. That form has some merit and he's not one to discount.

Keithen Kennedy | Mrs J Harrington | 4 | 60.3 kg |

| 10th | 6 | 4 |
Sayidah New Bay (F)
New Bay filly couldn't build on a promising handicap debut when third of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (1m4½f) in November, though could be interesting dropping back in trip, especially if able to dictate.
|
Rory Mulligan | John O'Donoghue | 4 | 59.9 kg |

Thru The Gap (F)
[T1]
Didn't show much following standout effort at Galway last season. Tongue strap on for handicap debut/reappearance, but it's hard to be confident.

Patrick McGettigan | P Magee | 4 | 59.9 kg |

Church Mountain (G)
[PT]
Form appears to have tailed off on the all-weather of late and doesn't look obviously well treated back on turf.

Alan Casey | D Hogan | 8 | 59.4 kg |

| 5th | 9 | 11 |
Convincing (G)
Fit from jumps, was below form when ninth of 26 in handicap at the Curragh (1m) latest, though he may be capable of better back over this trip (shaped with promise last season).

Conor Cusack | Ciaran Murphy | 5 | 59.4 kg |

| 11th | 10 | 1 |
Al What (F)
Never looked like justifying support when sixth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk on reappearance, but it's still early days, and she's worth a market check back on turf.

Paddy Harnett | N Meade | 4 | 57.2 kg |

Lisnadill (F)
Two very creditable placed efforts in handicaps prior to a forgivable run (found to have bled) at this course on final start for Andrew Oliver. Player if back on song for new yard.

Finished last year out of sorts but has fallen below her latest winning mark as a result, that victory coming on reappearance at this track in 2024.
