Comment: Three-time winner at 6f last year; some good runs in defeat at the Curragh this season, stiff task latest from out of the handicap there; back down in grade, not sure this sharp 5f will suit.

Brigid's Cloak

Jockey: B M Coen Trainer: J P Murtagh Age/Wt: 3/10-0 F: 204855 OR: 82

4/1

Comment: 3yo filly has been kept busy this season; won at Dundalk in April and at the Curragh in June off 71; hasn't troubled the judge of late, favourite at latter venue on latest when showing good speed for long way; blinkers replace usual cheekpieces (not latest) and drops in grade so respected.

4/1

Comment: Battled well to win at Navan in June off 2lb higher, safely held twice since in bigger fields at the Curragh; down in grade so don't rule out though best efforts have been over stiffer tracks.

Escaping Thejungle

Jockey: C T Keane Trainer: E D Delany Age/Wt: 5/9-7 F: 941-70 OR: 73

7/1

Comment: Both wins from the front over C&D, her local track, most recently last October off 72; quiet season so far (out of depth on first run) but sure to have been primed for her return to this track and Keane back on.

Aurora Nova

Comment: Three wins this term include twice over C&D; well held the last twice so needs to bounce back (still 6lb above last winning mark).

Skillman Ave

Jockey: G F Carroll Trainer: Gavin Cromwell Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 6-85120 OR: 73

14/1

Comment: Improver last month, scoring over this trip at Tipperary and rallying second over 6f at Navan; disappointingly never featured in higher grade at the Curragh last time so needs to bounce back.

20/1

Comment: Promise in maidens and was only narrowly denied on handicap debut off 1lb lower mark at Navan last month; no show at Tipperary since however; upped in grade here, not sure this fast 5f will play to his strengths.
