Polar Bear (G)
FAV
[V]
Still yet to win a handicap but was again better than the bare result when third of 16 under this rider at Navan last week, nearest at the finish.

Darragh O'Sullivan | Mrs J Harrington | 6 | 64 kg |

| 13th | 2 | 12 |
March To The Band (G)
Disappointing maiden who still looks high enough in the weights.

Sadhbh Tormey | John O'Donoghue | 4 | 63.5 kg |

28/1
|
| 12th | 3 | 11 |
Ukiyo (M)
Winner at Cork (6f, good to soft) in September and back to form when second of 15 at Navan 5 weeks ago. Needs considering.

| 10th | 4 | 10 |
Star Allure (F)
[BT]
Modest maiden whose best form probably flatters her.
|
Wesley Joyce | C O'Connell | 4 | 59.9 kg |

28/1
|
| 4th | 5 | 2 |
El Fontenaro (F)
[P]
Gradually lost her form last season but starts the new campaign off a handy mark as a result and can go well fresh.
|
J M Sheridan | J P Fahey | 4 | 59.4 kg |

6/1
|
| 1st | 6 | 4 |
Gegenpressing (G)
[T]
Stepped up on comeback run when winning this race last year off 4 lb higher so can be expected to leave his reappearance run well behind and make a bold bid to defend his crown.
|
Declan McDonogh | E & P Harty | 8 | 59.4 kg |

4/1
|
| 11th | 7 | 13 |
Rough Diamond (G)

Sixteen runs since last win and not much encouragement this year.

| 8th | 8 | 8 |
Skillman Ave (F)

| 2nd | 9 | 14 |
Happy Henry (G)

Has ability but not straightforward and still seeking first win. Opposable for win purposes.

| 6th | 13 | 7 |
Rattletheonionbag (M)
Remains a maiden after 31 runs but was a close third at Dundalk last month. Opposable back on turf.
