Races SRO Thurles - IRE

Well held two starts back and wasn't any better over 3721m at Down Royal last time. Hasn't won over this journey in 5 starts so he will need to lift.

Stepping out at this course for the first time. Last appeared when he finished third over 2615m at Down Royal on September 29. Nice effort last time. Can go on with the job now.

Finished second over 3520m at Down Royal two back then missed the frame last time out over 3218m at Listowel. Prefer to see her back in form.

Handy stayer who has been plain of late including last start when well held over 2615m at Down Royal. This looks a nice assignment so she can bounce back.

Has been in work for quite a while. Came from a wide gate and could only manage to finish eighth last time out over 3721m at Down Royal. In the mix.

Stepping out at this track for the first time. Last appeared when he finished seventh over 2011m at Curragh on September 28. Deserves another chance.

Fitter for two runs back from a spell, the latest effort a second over 2816m at Listowel. Rates highly and should go well.

Lines up for the first time since April 25. Closed the last campaign in lukewarm fashion, with a ninth over 4023m at Kilbeggan the latest offering. Doubt he will have much to offer first up.

Handy stayer who has been plain of late including last start when well held over 3520m at Bellewstown. Wait until he finds some form.

Failed to finish last start at Listowel. Rates highly after a strong run last time.

Handy stayer fitter for two runs back, the latest when win over 4023m at Listowel. Down in weight and is expected to improve here.

Six-year-old mare who punters have shunned in recent times, and she's been running accordingly. Can't see her breaking through for the maiden win this time.

Stepping out at this circuit for the first time. Last appeared when he finished sixth over 2816m at Navan on August 28. Can make amends.

Struggling to find consistency. In the money two runs ago then last time was beaten 37 lengths into eighth over 3621m at Downpatrick. Prepared to risk.

Finished third two back then could only manage sixth last time over 3922m at Listowel, beaten 32 lengths. Rates highly on best form so she can turn things around.

Has just two wins to his name but has been in the minor end of the prize a further seven times from 23 starts. Last start finished seventh over 3218m at Tramore, beaten 18 lengths. Looking to others.

Scored at Clonmel two starts ago. Last time out found a couple better over 2414m at Curragh, 2.75 lengths from the winner. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
