|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | BowensonfireBowensonfire counts as a leading danger, a winner last time out, 16 days ago, after a third two starts back and another third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going. The main risk is the 151 lb he carries off an official mark of 137. | -42331 | 6 | 10-11 | Jack Kennedy | Gordon Elliott | 137 | 11/2 |
| 1 | Westport CoveWestport Cove won three of his last five starts, including a win two starts back and another three starts back, and has run over today's trip and going before. The big risk is a 317-day absence and an eighth last time out, with 164 lb to carry. | 12118- | 8 | 11-10 | Sean O'Keeffe | W. P. Mullins | 147 | 15/2 |
| 2 | Irish PantherIrish Panther counts two wins in his last five starts and was second last time out, while he has also run over today's trip and on this going. The one worry is a 192-day layoff, and he carries 155 lb. | 11262- | 9 | 11-01 | Kieren Buckley | Eddie & Patrick Harty | 152 | 11/4 |
| 3 | Kopek Des BordesKopek Des Bordes steps up as the one to beat, having won three starts back and been second two starts back, with a fourth four starts back, and he has run over today's trip. The fall last time and a 192-day absence are reservations, but our rating of 159 ranks him top of five. | 4/12F- | 6 | 11-01 | Paul Townend | W. P. Mullins | 160 | 1/6 |
| 5 | Rockstown GirlRockstown Girl was pulled up last time out and is winless in her last six, which makes her hard to fancy, though a second two starts back shows she can run well. She has run over today's trip and going, but 144 lb is a big ask, and our figures rank her last of five. | 36742P | 8 | 10-04 | Josh Williamson | A. McCann | 98 | 100/1 |
