BOYLE Sports Home Of The Early Payout Handicap
Prediction Leader
Sweet Baby Zou (GB)
0%
No sign of winning potential in three qualifying runs at 6f-1m2f on testing ground; looked in need of further when seventh of 14 at Roscommon (7.5f, good) on handicap debut but can't rule out for top yard.
Rest of field
Meriden (GB)
0%
Never threatened in trio of maidens at 6f-1m on soft/AW; got going late when sixth of 13 on handicap debut at Ballinrobe (9.5f, good to yielding) three weeks ago; others preferred.
Andosky (IRE)
0%
Best effort when runner-up in Sligo nursery (6f, good to yielding) last year off 64; soundly beaten all three starts at trips ranging from 5f-7f this term; has to improve but handicapper's grip is loosening.
Fontaine Khaled (IRE)
0%
Nice run in good-ground Curragh maiden last year; well held first two handicap starts but not beaten too far in much better race than this at Naas (6f) last month; wouldn't be too quick to dismiss her.
Imnotleavinyou (IRE)
0%
Second runner for yard; placed in Naas nursery last term and finished runner-up all three outings this season at 6f-1m, each time staying on late on ground with an ease; quicker ground possibly not ideal but still shortlisted.
Queen Of Newark (IRE)
0%
Weak form last season and never involved first two handicap starts over 5f; career-best when third in Roscommon maiden claimer (7.5f, good to yielding) 11 days ago but will need to pull out more back in a handicap.
Stonyfalls (IRE)
0%
Soundly beaten in four 7f maidens; has a more realistic opportunity now on handicap debut; market can reveal expectations after 203 days off.
Bullet Bourbon (IRE)
0%
Maiden went closest when chasing home a progressive type over 6f at Dundalk in April; slowly away over 7f at Gowran next time; another slow break over 6f at Navan on latest; others more likely.
Thistle Cross (IRE)
0%
Couple of modest AW efforts late last year; completely tailed off on turf/seasonal debut; easily overlooked despite now handicapping.
Another Nice'day (IRE)
0%
Respectable fifth at this course over 5f in her first handicap in September, staying on after taking a hold in first-time cheekpieces; failed to see out this trip at Dundalk next time; gelded ahead of return.
Dervo Annie (IRE)
0%
Long odds and soundly beaten in trio of maidens at Navan/Dundalk over 5f-7f late last year; never threatened when seventh of 13 on 1m Bellewstown handicap debut last month; booking of Colin Keane a plus.
Beau Army (IRE)
0%
Has won over 6f/7f at Dundalk and runner-up over 1m there last month; yet to run a good race on turf, including when tailed off at Gowran (1m) last month.
Sand Art (IRE)
0%
Well beaten in three maidens and no sign of improvement for switch to handicaps at Dundalk last time.
Honey Dale (IRE)
0%
Not a bad run when fifth at Gowran last month (7f, soft); failed to see out 1m there last time on better ground; easy to look elsewhere.
