Sommelier (G)
FAV
[BT]
One-time useful sprinter for Marco Botti and he took advantage of a much-reduced mark in first-time blinkers when winning a 20-runner handicap (20/1) at the Curragh (6.3f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Did well to maintain a strong pace and he…

Thurso (G)
Resumed winning ways from a reduced mark in a 7-runner handicap at Bath (5.7f, good, 13/8) 26 days ago. Up 4 lb having since left Richard Hughes and he's not ruled out for his new yard.

Harry's Hill (G)
[T]
C&D winner. Possibly still needed the outing when seventh of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 12 days ago. Better can be expected this time with regular tongue strap back on.

Lethimfly (G)

Lightly-raced sort resumed from 9 months off with a good ¾-length second of 6 to Buddy Batt in Dundalk handicap in March but proved a disappointing favourite there (5f) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces now applied.

[P1]
Best effort of his season came when fourth of 16 in handicap at Naas (5f) at the start of May but went off too hard in first-time blinkers when eighth of 13 in handicap at Listowel (6.3f, good, 11/2) 7 days ago. Back down in trip in a chan…

Produced his best effort in maidens when third here in October. Went off at long odds and failed to beat a rival having refused to settle at the Curragh on handicap debut and looks up against it again.

Winless since 2024 but has made the frame on 8 of his last 9 starts, most recently when third of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Listowel (6.3f, good) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to princip…

Little encouragement in 3 maidens for M. G. Quinn last summer and always on the back foot after slow break on debut for this yard when sixth of 7 in claimer at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 10 days ago. Makes handicap debut.

Sixth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) on his final run for David Simcock when last seen back in June. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence after an 11-month absence.

Suited by having a sound gallop to aim at when winning 15-runner handicap over 5.8f here on return before following up 2 weeks later at Bellewstown. Again shaped well when third of 21 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 49 days ago and …

[P]
Four-time course winner, 3 of which last year. Has tended to need her seasonal comeback and it looked a similar case when twelfth of 17 in handicap at this course (6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Could reach the frame if sharper here.
