Going - Good to firm. Fine
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Donal Murphy - MAGNETIC NORTH might be able to register a 10th career success on what will be his debut for Ian Donoghue. The chestnut gelding ran at least once for 21 consecutive months from March 2022 to November 2023 and returns now from a well-earned break. The winner of this race 12-months ago and in here for E12,000, the 73-rated nine-year-old should give a good account of himself with Shane Foley aboard. Colin Keane will get the leg up on French Company, who also has a price tag of E12,000. After finishing a solid fourth at Fairyhouse recently, the Jimmy Coogan-trained six-year-old looks a leading contender. Top-weight Pinball Wizard (E15,000) is a consistent sort and is sure to have plenty of supporters, while the Paul Flynn-trained Emeric (E6,000) is another with strong claims. Successful over hurdles here last month, Kendancer (E7,000) is also declared to run at Sligo on Tuesday and might not turn up here.
