Fleetfoot^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: R P Cleary| T: J S Bolger| OR: 90| D

10/1

Twelfth of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good, 20/1) 21 days ago and this 4-y-o again looks vulnerable.

Form: 2/1217-0

Titanium^t1⁶³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: C T Keane| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 90| D

6/1

18/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, soft) 63 days ago. Back up in trip and tongue strap refitted. This French import certainly isn't one to write off just yet.

Form: 6211-00

Kortez Bay²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: G F Carroll| T: S Lavery| OR: 90

7/2

Winner at Fairyhouse in June. 8/1, creditable tenth of 17 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good) 22 days ago. Up in trip and yard is having good spell but he's opposable all the same.

Form: 231050

Casanova^v⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: Adam Caffrey⁽³⁾| T: A McGuinness| OR: 85| D

9/1

Latest win at Listowel in September. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft, 16/1) 5 days ago. Visor refitted and he needs to bounce back.

Form: 060510

Simply Sideways¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: M W Hassett⁽⁵⁾| T: T Doyle| OR: 83| CD

8/1

Latest win at Gowran in May. 9/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back but she landed this race 12 months ago and will be a danger to all if able to do so.

Form: 618708

Vasda^t³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: H J Horgan⁽⁵⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 82

14/1

Fifth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Roscommon (7.4f, soft) 34 days ago. Moves up in trip here and wouldn't be without an each-way chance if her stamina passes the test.

Form: 9140-05

Complete Fiction¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Neve Bennett⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Fahey| OR: 80| D

8/1

Latest win at Naas in August. Creditable 3 lengths third of 11 to Casanova in handicap at Listowel (9f, good to soft, 9/1) 13 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good.

Camelot Alexander¹²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R P Whelan| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 80| BF| D

15/2

Winner at Gowran in April. 7/2, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at the same course (9.4f, good to soft), not ideally placed. Off 125 days and she's probably worth taking on.

Form: 446-175

(6)

Passionate^v1⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: A J Slattery| T: A Slattery| OR: 72

3/1

Winner at Killarney in May. 11/2, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Leading claims off the same mark here with a first-time visor enlisted.

Form: 721936

Forecasts

Complete Fiction (3/1), Camelot Alexander (4/1), Fleetfoot (6/1), Passionate (6/1), Kortez Bay (7/1), Vasda (8/1), Titanium (12/1), Casanova (14/1), Simply Sideways (14/1)

If PASSIONATE responds well to the new headgear she could be the answer to this tricky-looking handicap. She wasn't at her best at Cork recently but that was still a respectable effort and this filly certainly arrives here in better form than the majority of her rivals. Last year's winner Simply Sideways and French recruit Titanium both need to get back on track but they will be serious threats if able to do so.
