Colm White Bookmaker Handicap

Sole win on turf in the 2023 Norfolk Stakes; has won five conditions races at Dundalk since, the most recent a 4.25l win over 5f in February; well beaten at Lingfield and Newcastle the last twice and others arrive in better form.

Finished last season in excellent form with a 50-1 win in the Bold Lad at the Curragh (6f, yielding) and a 1.75l second in a Listed race here (6f, yielding); off since October and has needed his comeback run in the past two seasons.

One of three for yard; six-time winner, the last three of which have come at the Curragh; testing ground a valid excuse for poor run at that venue on seasonal return but remains 4lb above last win and may need more help from the handicapper.

Smart turf form for George Scott in Bahrain early last year; best run for Ado McGuinness over 6f at Dundalk on penultimate but only beat two rivals home at Newcastle on latest; potentially well handicapped on return to turf and not dismissed.

Won her third handicap off 77 at Chepstow last August (5f, gd-sft); hit with an 11lb hike for an Ayr Listed sixth in September; no impact in Listed races here and at Bath the last twice and on a tough mark returned to handicap company.
