Des Byrne Memorial Maiden

—	1	8	Nucky Johnson (G) Once-useful hurdler who hasn't stood much racing in recent seasons. Offered little on first outing since leaving Noel Meade/reappearance at Thurles earlier this month. Needs this run for a mark.	3/7	James Ryan D A McLoughlin	8	63kg	101 100/1
—	2	5	Shamrock Flame (G) Returned to something like his debut form when 3¼ lengths fourth on return/stable debut at Leopardstown (9f). Claims if building on that back up in trip for all-weather bow.	20-4	Donagh O'Connor Robson Aguiar	4	63kg	8.50 15/2
—	3	10	Steel Cut (G) V Runner-up in a C&D maiden second time up in May. Made more impact than on his previous couple of starts when 6¼-length fifth (behind Sakoku) in C&D handicap last time. In a change of headgear on retu…	254805	Gary Carroll A Oliver	4	63kg	15 14/1
—	4	4	Ask Me Again (C) P Related to some above-average types. Has run to a fairly useful level both starts here, latterly when 2 lengths third in a C&D maiden last month. Cheekpieces back on and should go well from a handy d…	0553	J M Sheridan J Feane	3	60.8kg	9 8/1
—	5	16	Drummond Hill (C) T Makes some appeal on paper. Showed a lot more than first time up when 2½-length fourth over C&D second time up, the step up in trip presumably a catalyst. Another step forward would see him in the m…	94	Shane Foley Mrs J Harrington	3	60.8kg	15 14/1
—	6	15	Heriot's Hope (G) Offered something to work on when 12½ lengths fifth on debut at Roscommon (10.5f, soft) 11 days ago, Should do better at some stage, possibly in handicaps over further (plenty of stamina in his pedig…	5	Billy Lee A Oliver	3	60.8kg	26 25/1
—	7	6	Isthatrightkatie (M) Showed more than previously when 9¼ lengths fourth at Roscommon 11 days ago, though was better positioned than most in a race in which few got competitive. This demands a fair bit more again.	8-04	Wesley Joyce Miss K Brown	6	60.8kg	17 16/1
—	8	1	Kanzashi (G) T Hasn't been given a hard time in couple of maiden starts 6 months apart (perhaps isn't the easiest to train), finishing 8¾ lengths fourth at Naas (7f, heavy) on latest start in March. Tongue strap ad…	6-4	Jamie Powell M O'Callaghan	3	60.8kg	17 16/1
—	9	2	Mendez (G) Went backwards from his debut fourth here when down the field in a course maiden (1½m) in April. Another who probably has handicaps on the agenda after this run.	46	Nathan Crosse C Timmons	3	60.8kg	21 20/1
—	10	3	Sierra's Dream (F) Only showed a bit in a couple of bumper starts. Not enough in pedigree to make her of serious interest on Flat debut.	—	Sadhbh Tormey T G McCourt	4	60.8kg	51 50/1
—	11	14	Testaverde (G) Didn't build on the promise of his debut when trailing the field in a conditions race at Punchestown (9f) last time. Seemingly one for down the line.	66	Reese Holohan J J Murphy	3	60.8kg	26 25/1
—	12	17	Trustmore (G) B 150,000 gns purchase who finished mid-field in a warm Curragh maiden on racecourse bow. Solid form when fourth on handicap debut there prior to improving when runner-up in C&D maiden latest, beating …	7-5642	Dylan Browne McMonagle Stephen Thorne	3	60.8kg	8.50 15/2
—	13	12	Cosmetic (F) B Produced her best effort when second to a now-useful one in a Fairyhouse maiden in early-July. Hasn't kicked on from that, finishing 7 lengths fifth in a Curragh maiden on latest start. Switch back t…	552405	J Cleary A P O'Brien	3	58.5kg	3.50 5/2
—	14	13	Sakoku (F) T Chased home a useful, subsequent winner at Navan last month. That form reads well in the context of this race, and she ran to a similar level when 4 lengths fourth on C&D handicap bow since. Return t…	92524	Ben Coen J P Murtagh	3	58.5kg	3.25 9/4
—	15	9	Nogs (F) Went with no promise on debut (200/1) at Killarney (11f, soft) earlier this month. RESERVE	7	Reserve 1 M J Byrne	4	60.8kg	201 200/1
—	16	11	Saoirses Choice (M) T Hasn't shown much over jumps and it was a similar tale on Flat debut at Naas (7f). Now up in trip with tongue strap added. RESERVE	0	Reserve 2 Francis Casey	6	60.8kg	151 150/1
—	17	7	Michinaga (G) Ran no sort of race in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) on handicap debut at Down Royal (13f), his jockey reporting he got upset in the starting stalls. Something to find back in a maiden for all…	9690	Reserve 3 C Weld	3	60.8kg	21 20/1
