XERLING (15) Competitive effort when 2nd last start at Navan but up against a more competitive field. Jockey Dylan Browne Mcmonagle and trainer Natalia Lupini command respect as a team. Worth consideration. SPARKY SPARKY (5) Finished 8th last start at Curragh but matched against less formidable competition. Interesting to see the winkers go on for the first time but going up in weight. Key player. GRANDE CUVEE (11) Placed 3rd last time at Navan. Should muster plenty of early speed. Looks to be value. CACTUS (8) Below expectations when 10th last time at Down Royal and dropping in distance. Should muster plenty of early toe. Freya Frain takes a large claim. Serious player.

Jumped at $51.00 and disappointing display when 5th last time at Gowran Park and will be dropping in distance. Should jump out and bowl along. Matched against tougher rivals. Rough hope.

Finished 8th last start at Curragh but stepping down to a lower level. Winkers go on for the first time but rising in weight. Has claims.

Odds of $81.00 and just average when 6th last start at Gowran Park but having second career run. Large claim helps but will be dropping in distance. Suggest watching.

At $51.00 came in 11th last run at Curragh but was on debut last time. Likely to settle back in the field. Has a positive draw. Prefer a race with softer competition.

At $67.00 below par performance when 10th last start at Navan. Interesting gear change of tongue tie on first time. Expecting to settle positively. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.
