Prediction Leader
Rappell (IRE)
0%
Three turf wins, the latest at the Curragh in 2024; added a 6f AW win last September; needs to step up considerably on the form of this season's four outings.
Rest of field
Imperial Dream (IRE)
0%
Close fourth over C&D at this meeting in 2024 off 74; last win at the Curragh (6f, good) in August of that year; has largely struggled for form since.
Thaloria (GB)
0%
Stepped up markedly on maiden runs when scoring on handicap debut at Dundalk in January over 7f; not as effective on turf and was completely tailed off in 1m Curragh handicap (good) on Sunday; eased in grade but others preferred.
Una Matata (IRE)
0%
First turf run since September last year; excellent record on AW of late, winning four of her last 10 starts, three at this trip; one place behind Thaloria when third in 7f claimer there when last seen; tough mark back on grass.
Shoot To Kill (IRE)
0%
Two wins last year on good ground for different trainers, including 7.5f Roscommon handicap off 80; now 10lb lower plus talented claimer takes off another 5lb; got his favoured ground when eyecatching third of 14 at Roscommon from tough draw 18 days ago; big chance.
Charming Whisper (GB)
0%
Won five times when trained in Britain by Philip McBride; all those wins came on ground with good in the description; slowly away and always behind at the Curragh on latest; new headgear.
Faoladh (IRE)
0%
Enjoyed a good spell last summer, winning at Leopardstown (1m, good) off 1lb lower; fair efforts in defeat this year, including third at Leopardstown a fortnight ago; likely to be in the shake-up.
Bay Of Dreams (IRE)
0%
Won twice for James Ferguson last year, including on turf at Nottingham; tailed off in two starts for this yard, behind third-placed Faoladh at Leopardstown on latest.
Land Of The Giants (IRE)
0%
Second runner for yard; in good form on turf recently, with a breakthrough win at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) off 63 at the start of the month; fairly treated back on home soil but below his best in two starts since, including Dundalk claimer on Tuesday.
Minaun View (GB)
0%
Third runner for yard; maiden after 15 starts; one of her better runs when 3l third of 15 at Limerick (1m, yielding; one place behind Amemri) on penultimate; best work late on when fifth of 14 at Roscommon (7.5f, good) on latest; place shout.
Amemri (GB)
0%
Back to form when recording a tenth career win at Dundalk in March; has won three times on turf and finished runner-up of 15 at Limerick (1m, yielding) on latest when just in front of Minaun View; player.
Eichan San (IRE)
0%
Now 0-8 but has ability judged on his keeping-on fourth of 21 at the Curragh on penultimate (6f, soft); the drop to 5f was a bad move last time (outpaced) but can't rule out a big run over this trip.
Lohengrin (GB)
0%
Won 7f Laytown maiden last September; poor winter form at Dundalk; brought down at Bellewstown on return; in rear at Navan and Roscommon; Colin Keane is 0-8 on him; looks vulnerable.
Dynamic Force (IRE)
0%
Speedy in his early days, winning three times over 5f for Robert Cowell; runner-up when sent off favourite for this race (good) last year; 8lb lower now but on a long losing sequence and weakened at Leopardstown on return.
Burford Beauty (IRE)
0%
First reserve; just fair form in handicaps to date, including fifth over C&D; can get upset in the stalls.
Brains (IRE)
0%
Second reserve; seventh in this race last year; not beaten far on last two runs; in the mix.
Goldsmith (IRE)
0%
Third reserve; five AW wins when trained in Britain; mostly below form for this yard.
