Andosky (F)
[T]
Showed more than previously when second on nursery debut at Sligo (6f) in August. Disappointed at Navan later that month but she returns with yard having made a good start to the season.

|
| 9th | 2 | 5 |
Dream And Believe (G)
[P1]
Lightly-raced maiden who took a small step forward from his reappearance when mid-field in a Dundalk handicap (6f) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces go on returned to turf but he does need to pull out more to play a lead role.

Aurora Mist (F)
FAV
Inns of Court filly who ended her 2-y-o campaign with a good fourth over this trip at Galway in October. Resumes from 163 days off with her yard firmly amongst the winners and she's one to consider.

Andrew Slattery | A Slattery | 3 | 60.3 kg |

| 3rd | 4 | 11 |
Cisterna (G)
Form levelled off as a 2-y-o but encouraging he stepped up on reappearance effort in a refitted visor when fifth at Naas (5f, heavy) 17 days ago, that despite being left poorly placed. A repeat gives him claims back up in trip for yard who…

Believe Believe (G)
Make Believe gelding who was well backed in first-time cheekpieces but found race not panning out ideally when eighth in handicap at Galway (7f, heavy) on final start at 2 yrs. Conditions will hold no fears on return and not one to give up…

Jamie Powell | M O'Callaghan | 3 | 59.4 kg |

| 8th | 6 | 10 |
Unfamiliar (F)
[H]
Mid-field all 3 starts in maidens at Dundalk but appeared to find drop to sprinting against her when eighth of 15 on handicap debut at Naas (6f) 17 days ago. This looks more suitable.

Billy Lee | K Smith | 3 | 59.4 kg |

Monocle Rocket (G)
[P]
Well held all 3 starts in turf maidens for Henry de Bromhead last summer and market best guide on return/handicap debut for new stable.

Ben Coen | Daniel McLoughlin | 3 | 58.5 kg |

11/2
|
| 4th | 8 | 9 |
Nephin Mountain (G)
Modest form at best in trio of maidens during first half of last season but does now get first crack at handicaps (also gelded in interim) so another to note in the betting for a positive move.

Wesley Joyce | M Mulvany | 3 | 58.5 kg |

| 10th | 9 | 4 |
Lilo Pelekai (F)
Down the field all 5 starts in maiden/nurseries as a 2-y-o.

| 1st | 10 | 3 |
Survivor's Code (F)
Showed a bit in 7f nurseries for Emmet Mullins last season but proved easy to back and never threatened on stable debut at Navan (1¼m) 9 days ago. Quickly reverts to this shorter trip which may see her in a better light.

N G McCullagh | Conor Maxwell | 3 | 56.2 kg |

| 6th | 11 | 8 |
Beau Army (F)
Back-to-back winner of handicaps at Dundalk over the winter but seemed to go off the boil thereafter, never better than midfield over this trip there in February. 6-week break needs to have had positive effect.

Rory Cleary | A McGuinness | 3 | 55.8 kg |
