By Gary Carson - LE COQ HARDI has chase experience in the bag and that could prove the difference here. The Henry de Bromhead-trained gelding was beaten at a short price on his return to action at Limerick last month but it was still a solid effort to chase home Shadow Paddy. He has an official rating of 135 over fences and that sets a good standard. Impero is rated 136 over hurdles so has to be respected on his chase debut. He has run well on his last couple of outings and, if he takes to the larger obstacles, will be a big danger. Coyote Spirit has a bit to find on hurdles ratings but is one to note on his chase debut.
By Gary Carson - WARRIORS WOOD was a good winner here on his first start in handicap company over fences just over two weeks ago and can follow up. The Andy McNamara-trained gelding asserted from the last then to post a seven-length success and there looks scope for further improvement from him. Gaelic Arc won this last year and bounced back to winning ways at Punchestown nine days ago. He has to be a leading contender. A 5lb for that success doesn’t look harsh. Milan Forth was edged out by half-a-length here last month and is another that deserves to be on the shortlist.
By Gary Carson - This looks like a nice opportunity for VENUSIENNE. The Authorized mare was highly tried on her first couple of outings for Willie Mullins and benefitted from having her sights lowered when running out a facile winner at Tramore last October. She looks to have a nice level of ability. Carmel’s Phoenix is an interesting rival on her jumping debut. Mark Fahey’s charge won a Flat maiden at Cork last month and has a decent rating of 86 on the level. If she can transfer that ability to hurdling she could be a danger. Gordon Elliott runs two and recent Tramore winner Poetic Twist also commands respect. Previous course winner Kenisa Sport returns from an absence and is another to note.
By Gary Carson - BROHATNA ran well for a long way at Downpatrick last month and looks up to scoring at this level. The Famous Name gelding was a touch keen early on then and made a couple of blunders. He’s fitted with a hood now and with a little bit of improvement he can step forward and open his account. The handicapper has him on a mark of 98. Silver Salute is rated 105 but was tailed off in handicap company when last seen and needs to prove he’s capable of that mark. On the pick of his form he’d be a danger. Sharu didn’t run badly when sixth in a similar event at Tramore late last month and is another to consider.
By Shane Redmond - JOE'S TURN must have his chance in what should be an open event. A early faller when favourite for a division of this race a year ago, he boasts a good record at the track overall, winning both over hurdles and over fences. He was in action for the first time since this meeting last year when in mid-division at Punchestown in May where he might have finished closer with a clearer run. Entitled to improve, the nine-year-old could be a match for Island McCoo, who ran nice races at Sligo and Limerick of late, and Ladies Well who was running for the first time in seven months when a second over fences at Kelso three weeks ago.
By Shane Redmond - ANNIE'S BELLE ran her best race when third to Blue Reed here last time and perhaps there's more to come. There was also promise in her previous start at Wexford and she might well get closer again over this longer distance. Smackwater Jack was 13lb out of the handicap proper when he scored at Punchestown nine days ago and he could be fancied to go well again on the back of that improved effort. Gerrys Wish finished runner-up on two occasions last autumn but will need to show more than she did on her comeback run at Sligo. A better prospect today could be Love Like This who was a runner-up at Sligo last month and went well again at the same track last Tuesday.
By Shane Redmond - JACOVEC CAVERN ran out a clearcut winner of the Adare Manor Opportunity Final Handicap Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival and can add to his tally. He backed up that taking performance when finishing second to Billy Lee Swagger in a valuable handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe and clearly arrives here in the best of form. Toll Stone was the beaten favourite in that same race at Ballinrobe but he's better judged on his run, also behind Jacovec Cavern, at Punchestown in April. He might be a bigger danger than the likes of top-weight Encanto Bruno or Cobra Queen who goes back over hurdles after being pulled-up in the Mayo National Handicap Chase last time.
By Shane Redmond - O'CALLAGHAN CAN raced up with the pace when a fair third behind the well-fancied Rokanako here at the end of last month and a repeat of that effort should see him go close. It was much-improved on his debut run which came in very testing conditions at Thurles in February and perhaps his chances will be better again as the ground continues to dry out. Johnny Rambo started off well when second over hurdles at Clonmel and the same can be said of Colossal Impact who was third at Navan in March. However, Willie Mullins' Sea Feliz is the first reserve and might well become the focus of attention if she secured a place in the final line-up.
- Call Nicki has progressed with each of her three outings, most recently filling the runner-up spot over 5f here, and she is likely to be on the premises. However, a chance can be taken on newcomer KING OF PERSIA, who is a half-brother to a couple of juvenile winners and it would be no surprise to see the son of Bated Breath make an instant impression. Any market support behind Redline would be interesting.
- Sunlit Sea failed to get her head in front in seven attempts last year, but could prove a different proposition with a first-time visor applied for her reappearance. Course winner Ramon Di Loria is another to watch, but the vote goes to RAMBUSO CREEK. Michael Herrington's charge landed a classified stakes at Nottingham on Thursday and can complete a quickfire double.
- Wee Dresser outran odds of 200/1 when third at Ayr last month and is of interest on her handicap bow, but the one who appeals most is BELLING THE CAT. The daughter of Rajasinghe weakened into fourth inside the final furlong over 7f at Catterick and this drop back in trip could work the oracle. Stormy Pearl completes the shortlist.
- The veteran Torcello cruised to success at Haydock and remains well treated off 5lb higher, but ground conditions are unlikely to be as testing and it might pay to side with BANDERAS instead. Sam England's gelding was a winner over hurdles at Hexham latest and is more than capable on the level too, as he showed when victorious here last July. The consistent Clansman is expected to make his presence felt, as might last year's winner Arctic Fox.
- Hostility chased home an improving rival over 1m1f here recently and is expected to go close on that evidence. Jewel Maker finished fourth in that contest and could close the gap dropped a furlong in trip, although preference is still afforded to BELLASIO. Grant Tuer's gelding showed signs of a revival at Newcastle latest and is now only 1lb higher than when winning a division of this 12 months ago.
- SANDY CRAIC might have been turned over when favourite at Musselburgh, but she was badly hampered early on and had to forfeit ground on a day where it paid to be prominent. David O'Meara's filly was dropped 1lb for that effort and if able to build on her earlier York fifth, she can reward those who keep the faith. Blufferonthebus and Velvet Rhythm head the dangers.
- Connections of GOOD KARMA swapped a visor for cheekpieces (retained) when he struck at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago and John Riches' grey is fancied to go in again from only 2lb higher. The Gay Blade had a couple of these in arrears when successful over C&D latest but probably does need a bit more given that he's never won off a mark in the 60s, so King Sharja might be the bigger threat.
- Sarah Bowen gets back on board old friend PRIDE OF NEPAL, who has showed his appreciation for the return to turf by registering a Windsor/Lingfield double. A further 3lb rise shouldn't bother him too much and he can force Knightmare to settle for more minor honours, with David Evans' 17-race maiden making the frame at Bath and Wolverhampton recently. Archie Watson and Brodie Hampson teamed up to win this 12 months ago and this year's representative Alazwar continues to plummet down the ratings.
- MAN IS KING has maintained a fine level of consistency during a busy first couple of months of the turf campaign and won at Bath to make it three victories from his last four outings. Those triumphs have all come at that circuit, but Louise Chance has tasted success on him before and he is worth sticking with. Change Of Fortune would be a fitting winner for Bernard and Jessica Llewellyn and isn't without claims after his Ffos Las third. Little She filled the same position at Leicester and might be the bigger threat, though.
- Eabha made a debut full of promise when third at Newbury, but not too far behind her was TALL TREES and she could improve past her rival. The Brian Meehan-trained daughter of Showcasing looked far from straightforward initially, but she picked up really well once the penny dropped and can take the necessary step forward. Spirit Tango cost 475,000gns as a yearling so is sure to attract plenty of attention, and Miss Kodi is another newcomer to note.
- SONIC SI gained the success his previous all-weather form deserved when switching to turf at Nottingham, and his supporters will be pleased to see that Rossa Ryan keeps the ride. Another bold showing looks assured, but Savannah Smiles is a big danger as she is a C&D winner and comes here on the back of an improved Bath second. Keep an eye on Moostar as well.
- Hint Of The Jungle would be no surprise winner judged on recent form and is a must for the shortlist, but SIOUX WARRIOR is fancied to strike. It wasn't a bad performance when third over an extended 5f at Bath latest and stepping back up to 7f makes him of real interest on the evidence of his previous Wolverhampton second, when beaten just half a length. The Organiser is noted too.
- PUNCHBOWL FLYER was just denied by the reopposing Too Much Trevor when a half-length second over C&D nine days ago and is weighted to reverse the form. The son of Dream Ahead is 2lb better off with Grace Harris' charge and can exact his revenge under stylish 7lb claimer Alexandra Egan. Autumn Angel was fourth in that race and the track-and-trip scorer is another to take seriously.
- Three-time C&D winner Ajrad hasn't cut much ice in four appearances this year, but his mark continues to drop and he may get closer. Even so, REDHOT WHISPER looks the way to go. Adrian Wintle's charge has hit the frame in this grade at Bath the last twice and looks to have been found a good opportunity to capitalise on a career-low rating. Surprise Newcastle scorer Dinah Myte is next best.
- PRAISE INDEED made no impact in her three starts in maiden/novice company last year, but she now has her first start for the William Muir & Chris Grassick stable on her handicap bow and could exploit an opening mark of 54. Desert Charm made the frame over 7f at Southwell last month and remains of interest, especially with this extra furlong in her favour. Homeland isn't ruled out either.
- Not a daunting standard set by the pair with experience, so STARLIGHT MIRAGE is taken to make a successful debut. The daughter of Dark Angel is a half-sister to three winners, notably useful miler Sisyphean, and looks to have been found an ideal starting point. In the same ownership, March Lilly makes some appeal and so does Northern Viola, who is from Stradivarius' first crop.
- CROSSBAR wasn't the sharpest out of the stalls on his debut at Kempton, but that didn't matter as he came home best of all to record a cosy success. Clive Cox's gelding must concede 3lb to the filly Machadadorp, who stepped forward from her Ascot introduction to win at Chester, but that still might not prevent him from following up. Tago Mago shaped with real promise at Southwell in September and must not be underestimated on her return to action.
- A few will fancy their chances, but the vote goes to HEY HAVANA. Geoff Harker's new recruit kept on well for second over 7f at Redcar last month, but he can prove even more effective at the mile and is expected to take another step forward. Oisin Murphy keeps the partnership intact with Thestral following a creditable Lingfield effort, while Supreme Dancer and Thornaby Annie are a couple of others to consider.
- ROARING RALPH's winning run came to an end at Southwell two starts ago, but the handicapper hasn't caught up with him just yet as he got his head back in front quite readily at Ayr. Versatile in regards to trip and surface, it's difficult to get away from the in-form six-year-old. Great Blasket was bang there at the finish when third at Nottingham and commands respect, as does Rajapour.
- BAYRAAT will be winning a race of this nature sooner rather than later. Runner-up at Redcar the last twice, the veteran has never been the most prolific but is certainly well handicapped and his turn looks imminent. Captain Cess was denied by a short head at Chepstow and should go well on his first appearance for the Declan Carroll team, while Desert Master is also interesting.
- CRAFTY SPIRIT certainly ran a lot better than his odds suggested he would when only finding one too good at Beverley and with the John Wainwright yard in fine form, he looks the one to beat. Angel Of England occupied the runner-up berth at Ripon and should remain competitive with Tom Eaves keeping the ride, while Ski Angel is another to watch out for.
- Baldosa took the silver medal home when upped to this distance for the first time at Newcastle and is respected back in handicap company. Redcar third Give Me Sun is another to note, but it may pay to side with BRADBURY. Ed Bethell's gelding had Heart Sign back in third when successful in an apprentice handicap at Leicester last week and can confirm that form to go in again.
- Our Fella took a step forward from his debut fifth at Bath to finish third over track and trip and he is one to take seriously. However, despite showing plenty of greenness, BLAKE'S LASS shaped with bundles of promise when filling the runner-up spot at Redcar. With any amount of improvement to come, she looks the one to beat. Newcomer Curious Minx warrants a market check.
- Cold Fish made a pleasing return to action when getting up for third over a mile at Goodwood last month, shaping as if this step back up in trip would be right up his street. He is respected, but ZABEEL SMALL only found a Godolphin hotpot too good on his introduction over an extended mile at Wolverhampton and is bound to improve from that experience. Egyptian Pharaoh isn't out of this either.
- Another Abbot pulled a long way clear with a subsequent winner when scoring by a head at Yarmouth and is bound to mount a bold bid, but UNCLE DON gets the vote. Robert Cowell's gelding was touched off over track and trip on only his third appearance for the yard and could have more to offer. Durham Castle and Diligently are others to watch out for.
- SEA HER EXCEL probably just needed her first run back at Nottingham because two solid efforts have followed. Third at Catterick last month, she took the necessary step forward when breaking through at Wetherby under this jockey and might have more improvement in her. Hallandale Beach might be one for the each-way players, but the main danger is Truly Glamorous, who caught the eye staying on well when a close-up fourth at this venue recently.
- OUR GUY came out on top in a tight finish over C&D on his handicap bow and with further improvement likely, a 2lb rise shouldn't prevent Denis Coakley's gelding from doubling up. Visually bumped into the 3YO Dash winner Naana's Shadow when attempting to shoulder a penalty at Wolverhampton in October so may be underestimated by an opening mark of 77. Bath winner Marcellinus was no match for an improver at Hamilton but he remains of interest, especially with Ashley Lewis taking 5lb off his back.
- Mrembo edged out Seventy over C&D, but even a 1lb swing for such a narrow margin of victory might be enough to see that form reversed. However, preference is for BIG BEAR HUG, who took a step back in the right direction with a creditable third at Lingfield and as long as that wasn't a flash in the pan, she can take full advantage of being 12lb below her last winning rating. Jimmy Mark is also noted.
- ZIGGY'S AVENGER broke through at Ripon on his second start in handicap company and could be open to any amount of improvement. Both ground and trip look ideal here and it would come as no surprise if this three-year-old racked up a winning sequence in the coming weeks. Court Of Stars is holding her form well and is expected to make a race of it, while Espona Bay won't be far away.
- LAUGH IS ENOUGH (10) has shown a useful level of ability and her runner-up effort in a Class 3 contest over this track in late May suggests she is capable of going one better here. MADAHA QUEEN (9) caught the eye when finishing third on her debut behind the selection and is entitled to improve with that experience under her belt. EPIFAGNA (2) made a winning start before stepping forward again when finishing second last time, and this extra distance could unlock further progress. KODI GO (1) is best of the remainder.
- BLEU NUIT (2) has been in good form recently and arrives on the back of a couple of placed efforts at this venue. He gets the vote ahead of SANSURO (4), who could provide the main challenge after finishing a creditable third in a handicap at La Teste on his latest outing. AMIRLAN (1) appeals as a solid each-way option and should be competitive, while YO SOY (5) is another to consider after a placed effort at this track two starts ago. He is capable of being involved in the finish.
- MIUCCIA (2) looks the most likely winner. She drops in class after competing in Group company on her latest start, and her earlier runner-up effort in a Class 2 contest at Chantilly reads well in the context of this race.KENDELYA (6) is better than her recent form figures suggest and has the ability to be competitive. BRIGHT MILLIE (3) arrives in winning form after scoring at Marseille-Borely on her latest outing and appears to be progressing nicely.SPIRIT GIRL (1) also merits consideration.
- Although not seen since last October, this could go to AL RIFFAA (2), who has the ability to score, having won a Group 3 PA race in Belgium in 2024. His main rival could be ALLIE SAINT LON (3), who has been placed on both runs this year and will not lack match fitness. AD DEBEL (4) is another with fitness to prove but has to be respected on his return outing. MN AAZAR (6) looks best of the remainder.
- KARAMA AL LEITH (2) can be rewarded for her consistency and is taken to go one better than her runner-up effort at Lyon-Parilly in late May on her latest start. SONO IO (7) looks the main danger after a creditable fourth-place finish in a handicap at ParisPARISLONGCHAMP in early May and should be competitive once again. PERSIS (1) appeals as a solid each-way option and is worthy of serious consideration, while KOHAKOU (5) completes the shortlist.
- MANA MAHA (7) can be forgiven for a below-par effort eight days ago and is better judged on her runner-up finish over this course and distance in a Class 4 handicap on May 23. GARRIS (4) looks the principal threat, having finished third in the same race and holding form that is difficult to overlook. MAROON SIX (1) has solid each-way credentials after two recent placed efforts, while JOJO JUNIOR (6) was a close fifth over this course and distance last month and also merits consideration.
- ULTRASOUND (13) has been knocking on the door with placed efforts on his last two starts, most recently when finishing third at Toulouse in late May. He looks ready to get his head in front. MOREA (12) could prove the main danger after finishing second in the same Toulouse contest and is likely to make life difficult for the selection once again. THE MAGIC MAN (9) arrives in good form and is difficult to dismiss from calculations, while MOON OF THE NIGHT (10) is another worthy of consideration
- EYE OF THE TIGER (16) produced a solid effort when finishing third in a Class 4 handicap at ParisPARISLONGCHAMP 11 days ago and is taken to come out on top. SOULOU MALPIC (14) rates the main danger after a creditable runner-up finish at Craon on his latest start and should be fully fit for this assignment. ZINGARELLE (2) has been knocking on the door with three consecutive second-place finishes and is expected to be competitive. SKYWOOD (5) also merits consideration and completes the shortlist.
- HOLY SPIRIT (2) did well in Quinte+ over 1400m at this course last time and dropping in class and going over an additional 200m this time could make him hard to beat. KENZEL (4) was cut off at a vital stage in his last race and is another who should improve dropping to a Claiming race. Proven at this level, MEFIE TOI (5) has a win over this distance while MY WAY (1) should also show more dropping a level.
- There are many with chances in this event but the nod goes to EVEROSE (5) who has a good rapport with Giovanni Sias and will benefit from his weight allowance. AMICO PIETRO (4) demonstrated his ability with a victory in a Claimer last time but needs to prove himself over the extra distance. NAVACERRADA (9) disappointed last time but did run well at this course a race earlier. EXCESSIVE (6) will need to prove his ability over this shorter trip.
- ASTREA (2) has proven ability and looks the runner to beat if she runs to her best form, especially with with Christophe Soumillon up for the first time. AMELIA (3) has the capability to win a race of this nature and could be rewarded for her consistency. LADY SOFIA (4) was touched off by the first selection last time but will battle to turn that around from her wide draw. VANINA RUNAWAY (14) comes in with a low weight and has shown some ability recently.
- This is a highly competitive event but although DIVA CHIQUITA (11) can be a little tricky in a race, she does give the impression a Handicap victory is within her capabilities. MISSES LILY (9) looks progressive and the engagement of Cristian Demuro speaks volumes. LA BELLE OTERO (16) indicated last time she would be better over this longer trip while ARMSTRONG GLORY (5) could be ready to now take on stronger.
- GLOBAL HEALTH (2) shaped well when finishing third in a Class 2 contest at Lyon-Parilly in mid-April and has the ability to take a race of this nature. He gets the vote. GALA (9) looks the main danger. She possesses enough talent to be competitive at this level, although her best performances have come on the PSF. MIGHTY BOY (1) has been running consistently and arrives on the back of recent placed efforts, making him an appealing each-way option. ZACAPO (4), a winner at Evreux in late May, is another who warrants respect.
- EL PEQUENIO (13) has been below his best on his last three starts, but he was not beaten far on the PSF at Chantilly in mid-May and could be worth siding with on his return to turf. HERMES WOOD (8) looks the main danger after a strong placed effort in a Class 2 handicap at Saint-Cloud 13 days ago and should be competitive once again. MONTGAUDRY (12) has been running consistently well on both turf and all-weather surfaces and is likely to be involved at the finish. MAX VERST (1) appeals as a solid each-way option despite carrying top weight, while STANGHELI (10) is another who warrants consideration.
- YOUNG MAN (10) could be the answer in this open-looking handicap. He produced a solid effort when finishing second in a Class 4 contest at La Roche-Posay in mid-May and a repeat of that performance would give him strong claims. CASARES (1) is better than his recent form figures suggest and is capable of bouncing back to play a leading role. AVANT NOUS (6) has been campaigning on the PSF in recent starts but could be a major player on his return to turf. ALKIDAN (7) also merits consideration.
- TOMAKAY (3) is effective on all types of ground and arrives on the back of a solid third-place finish in a Class 2 contest at Bordeaux Le Bouscat. He is taken to gain the verdict over SKYLIGHT BROCHARD (1), who is versatile regarding trip and shaped well when runner-up in a Class 2 handicap at this track on May 24. LANAKEN (4) performed with credit in a competitive Class 2 event last time and should be in the mix once again. MAJOR OAK (7) is capable of bouncing back to form and could make the frame.
- STATISTIC (5) has not been seen since a below-par effort on her second start, but she showed plenty of promise when finishing runner-up on her debut at this track in late August. If returning in the same form, she can make a winning comeback. SHALAZI (1) looks the main danger, having finished in the frame on all three starts this year, most recently at Compiegne in May. MERIDYS (4) has also been consistent, recording four placed efforts this season, and is best of the remainder.
- LEAD THE CHARGE has been knocking on the door with runner-up efforts in his two most recent starts and looks ready to break through. Final Out and Nightcap Recap are interesting newcomers who could make an immediate impact.
- HOUSE OF LORDS won over C&D the last time out and looks the one to beat having also scored at this venue previously. Brother O' Brien and No Ordinary Tiger also merit consideration.
- CHUCKANUT BAY won impressively last time out and looks the one to beat despite stepping up in class. Moneyshot and Elder Mack also merit consideration.

- PENCIMA gets the nod despite a disappointing effort the last time out when third over a longer trip. The filly showed promise earlier in her career and the drop back to this distance could help. Lady Of Mercia and Lady Meringue complete the shortlist.
- PROBABLY FLATTERY finished runner-up over C&D the last time out and looks the one to beat in this maiden special weight. Fines Creek and King Solomon also merit consideration.
- ITWILLBEFUN finished third in a higher class allowance race the last time out and drops back down in grade here. Chardonnay Derby was runner-up over C&D last time and Clarividente won her maiden at Aqueduct.

- SUGAR RIDE has won at C&D and finished second over a shorter trip last time out, making her the one to beat. Change Order was runner-up here last time and Jay's Love finished third in the same race.

- JONNY'S CAP finished third the last time out and has shown consistency with two placed efforts over the shorter trip. Pocket Listing makes his debut and Instinctively also warrant consideration.
- GOLD PHOENIX won the San Luis Rey Stakes here in March and could bounce back after a disappointing Grade 1 effort the last time out. American Hope and Living Life also merit consideration.

- LUCK LUCKY won over C&D when last successful and could bounce back from a disappointing effort the last time out. Day At The Track and Rockabilly Rebal also merit consideration.
- LITMUS TEST drops in class after disappointing in the Kentucky Derby and should find this much more to his liking. Secured Freedom and Decisive Win also merit consideration.
- TIERNEY won impressively over C&D the last time out and looks the one to beat with two course wins already. Lady Jasper was a close second here recently and Queenofthebuckeye battled gamely when runner-up last time.
- DUO narrowly missed out by a head over C&D the last time out and that effort suggests he can go one better. Run Bobby Run and Estoico also merit consideration.
- SWEET VIVIAN looks the one to beat despite a disappointing effort the last time out, having finished runner-up twice in her previous three starts here. Isa Fortress showed improvement when fourth the last time out and Gypsy Kat also merits consideration.
- WIN HERBIE WIN finished a game second in stakes company the last time out and drops in class here. Vdaytothetenacious and Bigpiclittlepic also merit consideration.
- SPECIAL BEACH looks the one to beat after winning going away over C&D the last time out. Quick Recovery and Blazing Zenna also merit consideration.
- INSTANT WINNER finished a close second the last time out over C&D and could go one better here. Rabbi Rosette and Ravishing Ruby also merit consideration.
- ROGUES A PLOTTING won impressively over C&D the last time out and looks the one to beat. Sadie's Silver Kid finished second in this grade recently and Colonel Cooper also merits consideration.
- MANDALAY SKY finished a good second over C&D the last time out and looks the one to beat with that form franked. Bionic Saint and Her Own Shadow also merit consideration.
