Runners Spotlight

1
Cristal Clere
Favorite

Top rated at 98 and mostly in good form this season; beaten 1.75l when second in a 1m5f Ballinrobe handicap on latest in July; placed in listed company at Chester (12.5f soft) a year ago but this trip surely on the sharp side; fifth 4.20 here on Monday.

Jockey: Seamie HeffernanTrainer: John J Nallen
2
Norwalk Havoc

Mudlark is one of two runners for yard and rated 97; last success came in a Listed race at Leopardstown (1m, heavy) last October; should be nearing peak fitness after two runs this season and he'll love this ground; has to give weight away but preferred by Foley and big chance.

Jockey: Shane FoleyTrainer: Mrs John Harrington
3
Evening Blossom

One of three for yard; 4-14 and rated 96; won a Killarney handicap (1m, yld-sft) three starts ago off 93; came up well short in a listed race back there on latest and McMonagle prefers her stablemate.

Jockey: Ronan WhelanTrainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien
4
Mataariki

One of three for yard; won a heavy ground Gowran handicap off 84 on seasonal return (7f, heavy); solid runs in stakes company since, including a listed 2l third at Naas and a listed 1l fourth at Galway; McMonagle prefers Soft Winds but this filly has place claims at least.

Jockey: J M SheridanTrainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien
5
Soft Winds

One of three for yard; rated 94 and shaped nicely when a 3.25l third of 9 in a listed race at Killarney (1m, good) last month; won on soft ground in France and is preferred by McMonagle so has to be considered for yard that won this in 2021 and 2022.
