Long-standing maiden who isn't one to be interested in.

Flying Fortress (G)
[B1]
Made a winning start for current yard last season and doubled his tally in handicap at Listowel in September. Went backwards from reappearance here earlier in the month and has little in hand off current mark. First-time blinkers applied.

Booklight (F)
Was going the right way for Natalia Lupini last spring, third of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (1½m, good) when last seen 13 months ago. Clearly had her issues to not have been seen since and returns for a new yard.

Doctor Grace (M)
[P]
Ended long losing run in 14-runner event at Roscommon (1½m, good) last month, well positioned under this rider. Appeared to clip heels and unseated after 1f at Fairyhouse since so can get back on track provided she's none the worse.

Screaming Eagle (G)
Fair performer on Flat in England in 2024 but little to write home about over hurdles for current connections, tailed off returning from 12 months off at Sligo recently. Hard to recommend back on the level.

Zipster (G)
Consistency is hard to knock, third of 8 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, soft) a couple of months ago. Given respite from the assessor and has to be taken seriously.

Ballymagreehan (G)
Bounced back to form to open his account for the year in emphatic fashion in 16-runner event at this course (1m, good to soft) just over 3 weeks ago, seen to very good effect from the front. 10 lb higher her but bold bid anticipated.

Bobby Kirova (G)
Fair form on first 2 starts in maidens for P. J. F. Murphy but nothing to shout about since, including in handicaps this season.

Faro Island (G)
[P]
Made second handicap start a winning one in September but clearly not on his game when thirteenth of 14 at Dundalk a month later. Returned to form back on turf after 6 months off when fourth of 23 at Navan (1¼m, good) in April and can feat…

Tero D'rosa (G)
Ended 2025 with pair of good placed efforts and built on those exploits after 6 months off when comfortably scoring at Ballinrobe (9.6f) last month. Shaped better than the bare result when sixth of 15 at Killarney (1m, good) and well worth…

Wrob And Wryan (G)
Fared better faced with more realistic company when fifth of 14 at Dundalk (10.7f) when last seen 8 months ago. Has struggled all 3 starts on turf and likelihood is he will need this on return.

Java Wood (G)
Sprang a surprise when winning at Dundalk in November and quickly dispelled a lesser effort when resuming winning ways at Limerick (1m) on Wednesday. Possibilities turned out under a penalty.

Lady Arwen (M)
Ended losing run in 16-runner event at this course (1m, soft) in April. Shaped as if still in good form at Limerick since so can feature again after a short break.

Elusive Duke (G)
Leopardstown winner last summer who shaped as if better for the run after 9 months off when seventh of 15 there (9f, soft) last week. Likely to be much closer to form now.

Lauderdale King (G)
FAV
Proved a different proposition making handicap debut over a 1f longer trip when third of 13 at Cork (10.4f, soft) just over 3 weeks ago, nearest finish. Remains to be seen just how strong that form is, however.

Starting Monday (G)
[P]
Improved on recent efforts to win 14-runner event over C&D in April. Wasn't disgraced on the back of a 4 Ib rise when fifth of 13 at Cork (10.4f, soft) since and he's one for the shortlist.

Sir Jeremy (G)
Finally capitalised on a falling mark on second start for this yard in 11-runner event at Roscommon (10.3f, good to soft) last month. Unexposed at this sort of trip and can go well again. RESERVE.
