Newgrange Hotel Handicap

Gained second career win when making all over 7.5f at Roscommon in May; hiked up 8lb and has struggled in two starts since (upset in stalls last time); this trip a query.

Maiden has run well in defeat including on latest when a 3.25l third behind My Girl Sioux at Bellewstown; weighted to get much closer to that rival and ran well here in April; 2lb wrong but should be in the mix.

AW winner is 0-8 on turf but has run well in both starts since returning from a break; beaten 1.75l when third of 11 at Down Royal on latest (hung right) and same mark here; should go well again.

3yo whose best run in maidens came on debut over C&D in May when a 2l third of 10; not as good in two runs since but can't be discounted on handicap bow in first-time tongue tie.

Maiden has been running well in defeat for this rider; beaten a short head in a 5f Bellewstown maiden latest; now 3lb lower than when a 2.75l fifth of 11 in a 5f Down Royal handicap last month; thereabouts again.
