22/1
Six wins from 23 Flat runs. Nineteenth of 25 in handicap (22/1) at this course (6f, good) on final outing in September. Boasts a decent record when fresh so no forlorn hope on this return to action.

Won Group 3 over 6f here in 2023. Largely operating below best in listed/Group company last year but may of needed first start for 5 months having rejoined this yard when ninth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, soft) 13 days ago, not knocked about. Entitled to be sharper.

Course winner who justified good support when winning 14-runner handicap at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) in October, Career-high mark to defy on return/back at the minimum trip but respected nevertheless.

Useful gelding who enhanced good record when fresh when bagging C&D handicap last March. Below best when last of 9 in Cork listed contest (6f) 12 months ago but time to catch him could well be back from a break.

8/1
Rapid improver in handicaps last summer, making it 4 wins from last 5 starts in 15-runner C&D contest in September. Much inflated mark to contend with on seasonal bow but unlikely he's done improving just yet on that evidence.

5f maiden winner last summer who ran respectably back from 5 months off when seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, soft) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on.

Course winner who, after 5 months off posted a respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, soft, 5/1) 13 days ago. Not taken lightly having won second time out last term.

Progressive at 4 yrs, resuming winning ways in 13-runner C&D handicap in November before an excellent second of 15 in handicap (15/8) at Doncaster (6f, heavy) later that month. Speed he shows suggests this may prove his optimum trip

In rude health on all-weather in recent months, landing back-to-back 5f handicaps at Dundalk prior to finishing a fine second at that track/trip 8 days ago. This tougher back on turf but hard to rule out a good showing in this groove.

Blinkered for 1st time, 6¾ lengths tenth of 15 to Keke in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 20/1) in September. Needs to hit the ground running back from 6 months off.

Night Of Thunder filly who confirmed debut promise when landing 7f Gowran maiden in September. Shaped better than bare result having made an eye-catching move when eighth of 9 in Group 3 here (7f) on final start and she remains open to improvement now handicapping.

15/2
One win from 2 runs last year. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D (heavy, 10/3) by 1¼ lengths from Two Stars in April. Things can't have been plain sailing to be absent since but she's compiling a very solid record, including at the minimum trip.

Forecasts

Two Stars (85/40), Stag Night (6/1), Magical Vision (15/2), Go Athletico (15/2), Keke (8/1), Sturlasson (8/1), Real Force (12/1), Greatest Drama (12/1), Betsen (16/1), The Highway Rat (22/1), Heavenly Power (25/1), Sporting Hero (33/1)

Verdict

KEKE ended last season on a steep upward curve, posting a decidedly useful effort when signing off with success over C&D in September. He looks one to keep on side this campaign on that evidence and shades the vote over Two Stars, who looks the type to do better again himself as a 5-y-o. Real Force and Stag Night complete the shortlist.
