4:45 Curragh Going Good / Distance - 0m 7f

Pool Value: £63.28

This is a potential minefield and the safest choice is probably SHOWHOUND who is taken to confirm the form of his Irish debut with El Bello. Notforalongtime, though more readily identified with Dundalk, is worth considering on his Cork second last time. Finsceal Annie also comes into the reckoning on Dundalk form. Tony Martin's import from Poland, Haeret In Pectore, is a potential dark horse. [Alan Sweetman]

The Bear Trap Off the mark at the 18th attempt with a 7f Dundalk maiden win last December; not beaten far at Leopardstown on his return to turf.
3 (3)	Showhound O McSweeney / Daniel Murphy	4yrs / 10st 2lb 97-152 Spotlight	75	11/2	3.80	1.60
Showhound Two wins from his 15 starts for Richard Fahey, landing 6f maiden at Ayr in 2023 and 7f handicap at Newcastle in January; started brightly for Danny Murphy with C&D second last month, clear of El Bello; leading contender.
4 (8)	Benavente J Kearney / Kevin Coleman	7yrs / 10st 0lb 67-687 Spotlight	81	16/1	59.50
Benavente Better known for his AW exploits, below his best in that sphere so far in 2025; first-time cheekpieces, makes limited appeal.
5 (17)	Prince Of Eyeries Nicola Burns / J M Barrett	4yrs / 9st 13lb 82-176 Spotlight	68	22/1
Prince Of Eyeries Won an ordinary Dundalk maiden for this rider three starts ago; not without a chance but needs to step up from Bellewstown sixth.

Red Hugh O'Donnell Best run last year was over 5f; ran respectably in first-time blinkers on handicap debut at Leopardstown; more required to make an impact here.
7 (1)	Topomania T Casey / G B Caldwell	6yrs / 9st 12lb 224/ Spotlight	78	33/1
Topomania Second in two of his three starts in Britain in 2022; cheekpieces fitted; can only be watched after a prolonged absence.
8 (4)	Selective Power H J Horgan / Thomas Coyle	6yrs / 9st 11lb 23130- Spotlight	78	33/1	28.10
Selective Power In excellent form last season until ending on a low note; probably most effective at 1m, so best watched over this trip on seasonal debut.
9 (15)	Auburn Avenue R Whearty / C Timmons	4yrs / 9st 10lb 6443-0 Spotlight	76	9/1	50.60
Auburn Avenue Has been running over further since two early-season 7f runs last year; failed to stay at Cork last month; this should suit better but needs to find improvement to make the breakthrough.
10 (10)	Tawaazon K G Kennedy / J A Kinsella	7yrs / 9st 10lb 600-08 Spotlight	89	12/1	59.40
Tawaazon Eight wins, but none since 2023; has been out of form, but well at Navan supported on latest; hard to be confident about his prospects.
11 (20)	Cornahilt Soldier W Joyce / K Smith	4yrs / 9st 9lb 30760- Spotlight	79	25/1	59.40
Cornahilt Soldier 7f Down Royal winner last May; big hike stalled her progression; back on a fair mark now; blinkers added to tongue-tie; lacks a recent run.

Notforalongtime Gained eighth AW win in a Dundalk claimer in March (7f) 1-20 on turf, the win coming in 2020 when trained by Clive Cox; recent Cork second was encouraging; each-way claims.
14 (2)	Roman Harry S Coen / C O'Connell	5yrs / 9st 9lb 26-020 Spotlight	71	22/1	24.10	4.70
Roman Harry Sole win came on the beach at Laytown last year; took a step in the right direction when runner-up in a claimer at Dundalk in March; towards the rear at Leopardstown; turf form is relatively weak.
15 (19)	Finsceal Annie J A Powell / Ciaran Murphy	4yrs / 9st 8lb 521-63 Spotlight	70	12/1	4.40	1.70
Finsceal Annie Suited by a sound surface on turf;, definite chance based on overall winter form at Dundalk; rider's considerable experience is an asset in a race like this.
16 (7)	Sakakawea Sorcha Woods / T M Walsh	4yrs / 9st 7lb 910-36 Spotlight	72	10/1	38.90	4.70
Sakakawea Good 6f run in testing conditions at Naas before unplaced run over 6f here; trip may suit and rider provides good value for the 7lb she claims here.

Haeret In Pectore Won over this trip in Poland last year; hard to assess, stable's form is a positive, worth a market check.
20 (18)	Mount Ruapehu Neve Bennett / M Fahey	5yrs / 9st 3lb 84-090 Spotlight	77	16/1	8.00
Mount Ruapehu His 1-23 record on turf is a concern; several good runs last year, including over 5f at this track; slowly away when strong in the betting over 1m at Bellewstown early last month; down the field over 6f here a week later.
21 (14)	Smaoineamh Sile C D Fahy / J C McConnell	7yrs / 9st 3lb 05298- Spotlight	79	33/1	46.00	4.70

Superior Force Both wins have come on soft on turf; ran well enough when fifth of 13 over C&D on latest; trainer may have a better chance with El Bello.

Mullacash Buzz 2-18 on turf, more effective at Dundalk (4-22), twice second there this year; fair chance off lower turf mark having ended last season's campaign with a fourth placing at Fairyhouse.

25 (5)	Saxon Kingdom J Pietropaolo / Thomas Dowling	4yrs / 8st 7lb -56662 Spotlight	79	10/1	50.60
Saxon Kingdom Longstanding maiden; Dundalk second a month ago provides encouragement in general but 6lb out of the handicap here; trainer has a better chance with Mullacash Buzz.
