1st	1	—	Illtakehimmyself (G) FAV T Low-mileage 5-y-o. Went close at Punchestown (3m) on return. Continued his sound start in handicaps with placed efforts at Listowel/Limerick since. May deservedly get his head in front this time.	995-223	Calum Hogan E McNamara	5	76.2kg	4.50 7/2
—	1	—	Grainne A Chroi (M)	142/1P-3	— Miss M Harding	7	72.1kg	—
—	2	—	Murcia (M)	4050-12	— W P Mullins	5	72.1kg	—
—	2	—	Clone Cross (G) FAV Fell Maiden pointer. Blotted his copybook when proving a very tricky ride on handicap debut at Sligo. In a better mood when third at Bellewstown (2½m) subsequently.	P2P3F2	Kevin Healy S Cavanagh	5	73.5kg	4.50 7/2
2nd	3	—	Cornaroya Rocco (G) Fourth in a Kilbeggan maiden (2m) before running no sort of race on handicap debut at Ballinrobe over same trip. Back up in distance following a short break, but it's hard to be confident.	P65-4P2	Harry Sexton J J Hanlon	5	73.5kg	41 40/1

—	4	—	Diamond Secret (G) Ran Out Lightly-raced sort has been brought along steadily. Shaped as if ready for this step up in trip when 9 lengths fifth on handicap debut at Kilbeggan (2m) in late May. Likely improver.	556-75R	Niall Moore P Fenton	5	73kg	12 11/1
10th	5	—	Ancient Myth (G) Fairly useful middle-distance Flat winner for David O'Meara. Well beaten at long odds on 3 hurdles starts around 2m for new yard. Now up in trip and opening mark potentially lenient given what he ach…	000	Jack Gilligan N F Glynn	5	72.6kg	15 14/1
—	5	—	Kenisa Sport (M)	202/115-	— G Elliott	6	68.5kg	—
8th	6	—	Lord De Choisel (G) T Well held in trio of maidens on soft/heavy, though he was back to something like his debut form on qualifying run at Clonmel in April. Could build on that now handicapping in first-time tongue strap.	857-	Paddy Cody E Doyle	5	72.6kg	23 22/1
—	6	—	Run For Mahler (M)	76	— C Byrnes	7	68.5kg	—
—	7	—	Penny Jar (G) Pulled Up TP Veteran who hasn't tasted success since late-2022. Showed a bit more than on reappearance at Clonmel last time, but not enough to suggest he's ready to capitalise on falling mark.	06F0P-0	Patrick M O'Brien P Downey	10	72.1kg	15 14/1
—	7	—	Samba Train (M)	1614-1U	— E Bolger	5	68.5kg	—
6th	8	—	I Feel Fine (G) Lightly-raced maiden. Step back in right direction when 7¾ lengths fourth of 13 at Kilbeggan (2m) in late May. Well worth another try over this trip under less testing conditions.	08U6P-4	Michael Kenneally M A Molloy	6	71.7kg	5 4/1
—	8	—	Birdie Or Bust (M)	7129P-3	— H De Bromhead	8	66.7kg	—
11th	9	—	Hickeys Hill (G) T Point winner. Much improved when making winning handicap debut at Fairyhouse (2m) in October. Backed that up when finishing fifth at Clonmel (better than result) 12 days on. Should come on for his re…	7015-90	Josh Williamson A McNamara	7	70.8kg	19 18/1
—	9	—	Lake Okeechobee (M)	0800-47	— E M O'Sullivan	5	66.7kg	—
9th	10	—	Listentomewillya (G) Standout effort in heavy-ground maiden at Limerick last winter. Well beaten at long odds both handicap starts.	86P8-00	Conor Smithers N Lee	6	68.9kg	67 66/1
—	10	—	Queenofthelodge (M)	57-4431	— S Curling	6	66.7kg	—
3rd	11	—	Uptaurintop (G) PT Close third on 2 of his 4 handicap hurdle starts last season, latterly in first-time cheekpieces at Limerick. No impact in 2 runs over fences since, though reasonable to expect better returning to hu…	P43-053	Alan O'Sullivan E M O'Sullivan	6	68kg	9 8/1

—	12	—	Leo Messy (G) Fared no better when well held in first-time tongue strap on handicap bow at Sligo on Sunday. Market position (9/2) suggests that better may have been expected (yard had couple of similar handicap de…	000-8	Shane Markey T Gibney	6	67.6kg	15 14/1 Sky B… 19 Paddy… 19 Betfa… 17

5th	13	—	Jekiki (M) PT Remains a maiden after 18 starts. Merit to the form of her penultimate third at Listowel. Had been on the go for a while when beaten 12½ lengths at this track on final start of last year. Could go we…	607637-	Thomas O'Connor E McCarthy	8	65.3kg	23 22/1
—	14	—	Glaoinn An Airgead (G) Pulled Up Long-standing maiden. Typically carried little threat on return at Kilbeggan in late May.	5F0-0P0	Peter Smithers J Barcoe	8	63.5kg	34 33/1
4th	15	—	Max Time (G) T Sole win gained in September 2024. Looks of little account nowadays.	60-PP04	Paddy Cleary I Madden	9	63.5kg	51 50/1
7th	16	—	Youknowme (G) P Lightly-raced type. Showed up much better than previously (in refitted cheekpieces) when beaten just under 13 lengths at Kilbeggan (3m) last time. Drop back to 2½m could be in his favour on that evid…	0608-77	Shane O'Callaghan P J Rothwell	5	63.5kg	7.50 13/2
