—	1	6	Faoladh (G) Scored at Down Royal in May and back to form with a bang when scoring at Galway (7f, good, 22/1) 19 days ago, just holding on from a next-time-out winner. A 3 lb nudge looks more than fair.	169001	Adam Browne-Souza A Slattery	4	64kg	6 5/1 Betfa… 13 Paddy… 13 Sky B… 13
9th	2	8	Altimara (M) Turned in best effort of season when 2 lengths fifth of 16 to Zheleznaya Dama in handicap (9/1) at Naas (7f, good) 17 days ago and has dropped to only 1lb above the mark she defied in this race last …	37-0965	Donagh O'Connor R O'Sullivan	5	62.6kg	4.50 7/2
1st	3	10	Naoi (F) Fair maiden for Paddy Twomey last year. Off for 13 months ahead of first outing for Willie McCreery. The betting is perhaps the best guide given the length of absence.	3338-1	Sam Coen W McCreery	4	61.7kg	21 20/1
—	4	20	Rappell (G) BT Capitalised on a drop in grade to open his account for the year in 14-runner event at Limerick (6.7f, good to firm) in July but followed that with a below-par run at Naas.	906210	Seamie Heffernan P W Flynn	5	61.7kg	13 12/1 Betfa… 17 Paddy… 17 Sky B… 17
—	5	—	Banshof (G)	680	— M J Smith	4	62.1kg	—
—	5	9	La La Lucrative (G) Back to his best this season, winning 7f handicaps at Listowel and Roscommon. Another good run when ½-length fourth of 13 to Faoladh at Galway (7f, good) 19 days ago. Has to enter calculations.	97-1814	Robbie Colgan M J Smith	5	61.2kg	7 6/1 Sky B… 11 Paddy… 11 Betfa… 10
8th	6	7	All Hail (G) B Fair maiden. 33/1 and blinkered first time, ninth of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Others are more obvious.	82-8409	Gary Carroll A Oliver	3	60.8kg	19 18/1
—	6	—	Sagasti (F)	3-63020	— M O'Callaghan	3	62.1kg	—
2nd	7	19	Free Solo (G) PT Course winner. 14/1, below-form ninth of 15 in handicap at Bellewstown (1m, good) 48 days ago. Feasibly handicapped but consistency has been an issue with him this season.	070659	Ben Coen P J F Murphy	9	60.3kg	21 20/1
14th	8	13	Ballymagreehan (G) Latest win at Gowran in May. Ninth of 12 in handicap there (7f, good, 12/1) 13 days ago. Remains 7 lb above the mark he defied at Gowran.	601779	Luke McAteer D Marnane	4	59.9kg	12 11/1
7th	9	12	Phoenix Pairc (F) T Won a maiden at Dundalk in 2025 but no impact in handicaps since.	190-070	Paddy Harnett W McCreery	4	59.9kg	11 10/1
—	10	4	Mr Perth (G) Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, very much caught the eye when seventh of 18 on handicap debut at Galway (8.4f, soft) 20 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Open to progress.	8707	Wayne Lordan M C Grassick	3	59.4kg	13 12/1 Paddy… 4.50 Betfa… 4.50 Sky B… 4.50
4th	11	3	Bear Right (F) FAV P Still a maiden but firmly knocking on the door in handicaps this summer, including neck second of 16 to Zheleznaya Dama at Naas (7f, good) 17 days ago. Bold bid likely.	734332	Shane Foley Mrs J Harrington	3	59kg	4 3/1
—	12	17	Kc Bear (G) Progressed again when getting off the mark in 6f handicap at Dundalk in December. Good in-frame efforts on first 3 outings this year but run of good form came to a halt back on all-weather last time …	31-2428	Nicola Burns N Meade	3	59kg	15 14/1 Paddy… 17 Sky B… 17 Betfa… 15
12th	13	16	Zheleznaya Dama (F) 12/1, career best when winning 16-runner handicap at Naas (7f, good) 17 days ago by neck from Bear Right, just holding on. Another who has to enter calculations.	83-P521	Rory Cleary B W Duke	3	59kg	8.50 15/2
—	13	—	Comfort Line (G)	125641	— A McGuinness	9	59.9kg	—
13th	14	2	Hazrama (F) Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 14 in claimer (16/1) at Killarney (1m, good) 36 days ago. Makes handicap debut from a mark which demands improvement.	0-000	Chris Hayes D K Weld	3	58.5kg	26 25/1
5th	15	11	Shamanka (F) T Maiden who stepped up on yard debut/return when fourth of 8 over 5f at Down Royal in June but down the field back there since.	530-040	J Cleary Harry Cleary	4	58.1kg	81 80/1
6th	16	5	Brains (G) BT Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2025. Good fifth of 17 in C&D handicap (good to firm, 12/1) 14 days ago. Another who could make his presence felt.	265756	Reese Holohan R Donohoe	10	57.2kg	13 12/1
—	17	21	Gordon Bennett (G) Twenty seven runs since last win in 2022. Bit below form tenth of 17 over C&D (good to firm) a fortnight ago.	46039-0	Robert Whearty Peter Fahey	8	57.2kg	26 25/1 Paddy… 29 Sky B… 29 Betfa… 26
—	18	15	Oppenheimer (G) Six-race maiden. Respectable fourth of 14 in handicap (6/5) at Gowran (7f, good) 13 days ago.	087-074	Leigh Roche Kevin Coleman	3	56.2kg	13 12/1 Sky B… 8 Paddy… 8 Betfa… 7.50

3rd	20	18	Ninth Crusade (G) T Off 8 months, below-form sixth of 10 in handicap (20/1) at Naas (6f, good to firm) 29 days ago but entitled to come on for the outing. RESERVE.	17062-6	Jamie Powell M O'Callaghan	3	63kg	34 33/1
11th	21	1	Sporting Hero (G) Three wins from 10 runs this year, the latest at Navan in April. Run of good form has come to a halt the last twice, though. RESERVE.	061000	Jamie Orr W Durkan	6	65.8kg	51 50/1
