1st	1	1	Causeway (C) FAV Wootton Bassett colt, brother to Island Hopping (third in Irish Oaks). Confirmed debut promise when justifying strong support in 13-runner 7f maiden at Curragh in October, and with that form working …	1-11117	R L Moore A P O'Brien	3	62.6kg	2.63 13/8
2nd	2	12	Controlled (G) P No Nay Never gelding pulled clear with another fairly useful sort when off the mark in blinkers (now wears cheekpieces) over 5f at Naas but didn't convince with his stamina for 7f on final start for …	818-23	Shane Foley Daniel Murphy	3	62.1kg	34 33/1
5th	3	6	Flanker Jet (G) Promising debut fourth at Curragh last season and was much improved when useful winner of a conditions race at Dundalk (6f) last time. Should go close if he can replicate that form under these condit…	2-31241	D Egan Robson Aguiar	3	59.9kg	21 20/1
6th	4	10	Son Of Beauty (G) 32,000 gns Nando Parrado gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 12.4f Jack Darcy. Improved from debut (still green) when winning with something in hand over 1m at Dund…	31653	Jack Kearney Stephen Thorne	3	59.4kg	17 16/1
13th	5	13	Breaking Dawn (C) P Twilight Son colt cost 47,000 gns as a 2-y-o and was much improved in cheekpieces when justifying good support in 16-runner maiden at Curragh (6f) on reappearance. That wasn't the deepest race, but h…	44-10	Colin Keane M O'Callaghan	3	58.5kg	4.33 10/3
7th	6	11	Cherry Hill Girl (F) Improved to get off mark in Listowel maiden and backed that up when third in a solid 12-runner nursery at Leopardstown in October. She was well positioned on both those occasions, however.	13-7743	Andrew Slattery A Slattery	3	58.1kg	15 14/1
4th	7	14	Red Autumn (F) Holy Roman Emperor filly from the family of very smart winner up to 10.5f Casual Conquest. Chased home a useful sort at Roscommon penultimate start but now pitched into a very competitive handicap ha…	525-447	Chris Hayes D K Weld	3	58.1kg	29 28/1
9th	8	9	Felix Somary (G) P Hasn't progressed since 6f debut success at Sligo, finishing well held on nursery bow at Naas in October. Cheekpieces go on for first time following gelding operation but hard to be confident that he…	40-9903	Ronan Whelan John O'Donoghue	3	57.2kg	51 50/1
—	9	8	Bobby Mcgee (G) Looked progressive when third behind now-smart Puerto Rico on qualifying run and though he didn't repeat that effort on handicap bow at Curragh in July, he warrants another chance on his comeback aft…	434-111	Ben Coen N Meade	3	56.7kg	13 12/1
3rd	10	4	Cotai Lights (G) €40,000 Cotai Glory gelding got off the mark in clear-cut fashion at Newcastle (6f) before chasing home a pair of improvers in an interesting novice there on his return last month. Unexposed handicap…	339400	Oisin Murphy A Keatley	3	56.2kg	6.50 11/2
10th	11	7	All The Girls (F) €2,000 Sands of Mali filly hasn't built on her 7f maiden win at Dundalk, for all she might have needed the run when seventh of 9 in conditions race there last time. Improvement needed on turf/handica…	2-70638	James Ryan T G McCourt	3	55.8kg	67 66/1
12th	12	3	Johnny Soda (G) Finished runner-up in a barrier trial before progressing steadily in maidens in the autumn, ¾-length second of 14 at Dundalk in October. Has been gelded prior to this handicap debut and could improve…	315711	Rory Cleary A McGuinness	3	54kg	13 12/1
8th	13	5	Adel (G) Half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 1m Axana. Unlikely we saw the best of him in maidens, finishing seventh of 9 at Gowran (1m, 40/1) in September and while 4 lb out of the …	667-871	Reese Holohan M O'Callaghan	3	54kg	21 20/1
11th	14	2	Salacious (F) Improved model since her return, going close at Dundalk before shaping well (from less-than-ideal position) when running-on fourth of 12 in 6f Curragh handicap 7 days ago. Tough ask at the weights he…	588-240	Wayne Lordan J Halley	3	54kg	13 12/1
