| 5th | 1 | 7 |
Billboa (G)
3-timer course winner but showed nothing after 18 months off when last of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (5f, heavy, 80/1) 33 days ago. Has work to do.

Sporting Hero (G)
[B]
5-time course winner, latest win coming in November. Wasn't up to better company when eighth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) 9 days ago. Type to bounce back quickly now returning to a more suitable level.

Send Harry (G)
[HT]
Winner here in September and ran at least as well when finding only one too good in 14-runner handicap at this course (7f) 23 days ago, clear of rest. Drop to the minimum trip not sure to be in his favour, however.

Jimmy Dalton | Miss E McCutcheon | 3 | 63 kg |

Buddy Batt (G)
Capitalised on a reduced mark when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D 23 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Tomarlo, pushed out. Nudged up 8 lb.

Rory Cleary | T Collins | 4 | 61.7 kg |

| 7th | 5 | 1 |
Never Shout Never (G)
[T]
C&D winner who probably needed the run on first outing since leaving Stephen Thorne when seventh of 14 in handicap (18/1) at this course (6f) 7 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Tongue strap back on. Not taken lightly.

Jack Kearney | A McNamara | 5 | 59.9 kg |

Inishmot Prince (G)

Thirteen runs since last win in 2024 but not disgraced when 4 lengths third of 9 to Buddy Batt in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 23 days ago.

Prairie Girl (F)

[P]
13/2, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this C&D 35 days ago, soon clear. Hit with a 12 lb rise but remains unexposed.
