Verdict: Narrow preference is for KATAKANA. She is ground versatile and she shaped with promise in a C&D maiden here last year.

Order Of The Dance

Jockey: D J Gilligan Trainer: E J O'Grady Age/Wt: 5/11-6 F: 0802-2 OR: 99

4/1

Comment: Is 0-5 over hurdles but has improved for handicaps; beaten 1.5l off 95 at Kilbeggan (15.5f, gd-yld) and 5l when second of 12 at Clonmel (19.5f, good) off 99 in first-time cheekpieces (retained); obvious chance back in trip but soft ground would be a query.

Dream Escape

Jockey: D E Mullins Trainer: Thomas Mullins Age/Wt: 6/10-6 F: 76- OR: 85

9/2

Comment: Flat winner is 0-9 over hurdles; best run in this sphere a 2.25l third of 14 at Gowran off this mark in October (2m, good); off since 9l sixth of 18 at Thurles in November; ground versatile but may need this run after absence.

I Am Mimi

Jockey: K M Donoghue Trainer: Gavin Cromwell Age/Wt: 6/11-12 F: 9/4533- OR: 105

11/2

Comment: Handicap debutant has shown promise in all three of his maiden hurdles at 2m-2m3f; ran respectably here in a 16.5f bumper a year ago; opening mark looks fair and he is worth a market check on return from 263 days off.

Katakana

Jockey: D J O'Keeffe Trainer: Henry de Bromhead Age/Wt: 5/11-7 F: 0/6473- OR: 100

6/1

Comment: Dual bumper winner on testing ground in France is 0-4 over hurdles; shaped okay on handicap debut at Tipperary last July when a 7.75l seventh of 18 over 2m on yielding; decent effort on chase debut when last seen in September; ran well in a C&D maiden last year; lacks a run but not discounted for top yard.

8/1

Comment: Handicap debutant has shown minor promise in three starts over hurdles and two bumpers at 2m-2m1f; hood worn for latest defeat here is discarded and the tongue tie returns; probably best watched.

Brave Soldier

Jockey: P T Enright Trainer: Mark Michael McNiff Age/Wt: 5/11-6 F: 4706- OR: 99

11/1

Comment: Is 0-4 over hurdles; minor promise in maidens and on handicap debut at Kilbeggan last time (15.5f, gd-yld) but was still beaten 16l; down 1lb but needs more off this mark.

14/1

Comment: Dual-purpose Flat winner is 0-7 over hurdles but has run well in defeat in maidens; struggled in handicaps and pulled up when last seen at Cork in November; best watched on return.

Zero Fighter

Jockey: J C Gainford Trainer: E D Delany Age/Wt: 5/10-11 F: 4/006-0 OR: 90

16/1

Comment: Two-time Flat winner at a modest level; won two weeks ago on the level at Roscommon (7.5f, good); has been well beaten all five starts over timber; down 2lb for 18l defeat last start in this sphere but needs more; rain would be a concern.

Gordons Aura

Jockey: J P Shinnick Trainer: William Delahunty Age/Wt: 6/11-9 F: 470P-6 OR: 102

18/1

Comment: Won a Fairyhouse maiden for Gordon Elliott back in February 2023 (2m, yielding); no joy since and hasn't looked a winner in waiting in three runs for this yard; mark sliding but needs more.

Only One Plan

Jockey: C M Quirke Trainer: M Flannery Age/Wt: 8/11-6 F: 0189-9 OR: 99

20/1

Comment: Two-time hurdles winner; scored off 95 at Downpatrick (2m2f, good) last September for Philip Rothwell and 4lb higher now; shaped as though the run was needed on debut for this local yard latest; handles cut and has run well here before; not discounted at a price.

Dream Shaper

Jockey: R P Geoghegan Trainer: I Madden Age/Wt: 6/11-6 F: 5407- OR: 99

25/1

Comment: Eighteen race maiden is 0-8 over hurdles; caught the eye when running on late for a 5l fifth of 20 at Galway (16.5f, yld-sft) last September off 3lb higher but hasn't replicated that since; may have needed latest but others look more likely.

Whatsitabout

Jockey: J Coen Trainer: M F Morris Age/Wt: 7/11-2 F: P- OR: 95

25/1

Comment: Is 0-4 over hurdles; best effort a 17l fifth of 23 in a Cork maiden (2m, heavy) but that was in November 2022; pulled up when last seen in July; best watched on handicap debut.

33/1

Comment: Three-time winner over timber; last victory came at Fairyhouse in October (2m, good) off 97; struggled off revised mark since and was well beaten on the Flat on latest; may need more respite from the handicapper.

Jockey: P T Smithers Trainer: J A Nash Age/Wt: 4/11-1 F: 57F- OR: 100

33/1

Comment: Dual-purpose maiden; 0-3 over hurdles; opening mark doesn't look a gift on what he has shown so far; fell when 125-1 on latest start in this sphere in a Gowran maiden; others appeal more.

Away To Milan

Jockey: T Power Roche Trainer: P J Rothwell Age/Wt: 7/11-10 F: 3U580- OR: 103

Comment: Is 1-13 over hurdles; last won in May 2023 at Wexford (17.5f, good) off 93; 10lb higher now but has run well off this mark before and is ground versatile; may have needed latest and could do better in first time cheekpieces.

Jockey: Reserve 1 Trainer: I Madden Age/Wt: 8/10-0 F: 0000- OR: 78

Comment: First reserve; won off 80 at Galway last September (2m6f, gd-yld); beaten 54l over 21.5f (good) here on latest; this trip looks too short; others preferred.
