Runners Spotlight

1
North Ocean
Favorite

Well bred and cost 550,000gns as a yearling, so they didn't expect to end up here; ran fine over C&D sole start at two; wasn't seen until 4-1 at Ballinrobe earlier this month, beaten a long way over 9.5f; maybe he didn't stay, but that might be too generous an assessment.

Jockey: Julian Pietropaolo(7)Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien
2
Yosemite Gold

107-rated hurdler won a maiden in that sphere last summer; ordinary enough Flat form and doubt dropping back from last two runs over 1m4f will be the answer.

Jockey: Wesley Joyce(3)Trainer: Eoin Doyle
3
Albion Power

C&D handicap winner in November and fair fourth here in March; mid-field in Curragh handicap on Sunday.

Jockey: Dylan Kidd(7)Trainer: Keith Henry Clarke

Independent Expert

Eight wins, two of them here; latest success was over 7f at Naas in March and ran well in big-field contest at the Curragh next time; disappointed when odds-on for Gowran claimer last week, but picked up a few grazes and she's better than that.

Jockey: Shane FoleyTrainer: Denis Gerard Hogan
5
The Liffey

Won at two and three for Ballydoyle; won claimers here over 1m and 6f in February; coughing post-race when disappointing odds-on favourite in 7f claimer here in March; been given time to recover and looks a big player.
