Runners Spotlight

Tai Tam Bay
Favorite

Sole win came last April at Naas (6f, yielding); generally reliable filly who ran well on return when third over 6f at the Curragh last month; yet to convince she truly wants 7f, especially on ground this deep, but still warrants plenty of respect.

Jockey: Wayne LordanTrainer: Eddie & Patrick Harty
1
Indigo Five

Fourth in the Lincoln on return; produced a career-best when comfortably winning at the Curragh (1m, soft) last month off 90; Apercu (fourth) gave the form a nice boost when winning at Cork on Saturday; 8lb higher now but drop in trip is fine and will have the fitness edge over some of these.

Jockey: Wesley Joyce(5)Trainer: John James Feane
2
Independent Expert

Four-time winner and has placed at this track three times from four attempts; won twice last year, including an early-season handicap at Cork (7f, heavy); respectable seventh of 27 in the Lincoln on stable debut last month; entitled to go well.

Jockey: Jack Kearney(5)Trainer: Stephen Thorne
3
Shavasi

Maiden winner who won her second handicap start at Punchestown (1m1f, good) with a nice bit in hand under prominent tactics; beaten favourite from 9lb higher at Navan in October but wasn't far behind; unproven in these conditions.

Jockey: Declan McDonoghTrainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien
4
Bellaphina

Decent effort when a close third here (good to firm) in August off 81; won fillies' handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good) in September off 79; 193-day absence to overcome and the ground is a concern.

Jockey: James Ryan(3)Trainer: John Andrew Kinsella
