DOWN ROYAL FORM GUIDE

Win: PRESENCE

Next Best: Cornahilt Soldier

Cornahilt Soldier is a contender if judged on her 7f stroll here rather than her subsequent Fairyhouse defeat over 1m4f, but she comes up against some interesting handicap debutants. The pick of the bunch could be PRESENCE, who looks nicely treated after her Dundalk fourth in a race won by the classy Port Fairy. My Mate Tony starts off on a low rating, and Model Approach is another to enter the equation in first-time blinkers.

DOWN ROYAL FORM GUIDE

Win: NOT JUST ANY

EAGLE

Next Best: Explorers Way

NOT JUST ANY EAGLE fared best of those ridden off the pace when finishing an eye-catching third after meeting trouble in running over an extended 1m1f at Gowran earlier this month. Stepping up in trip off an unchanged mark, he may be tough to stop. Explorers Way shaped with promise on just his third start for this yard when finishing third over 1m2f at Navan latest, and he is respected off the same mark. Limestone Red should appreciate going up in distance and is noted too.

Win: HASNA

Next Best: Lady Doris

HASNA looked a decent sort when winning on her second start by a couple of lengths at Naas and although she is making her handicap debut here, a mark of 87 may underestimate the daughter of Sea The Moon. Lady Doris was caught late on over 1m4f last time out at Fairyhouse but has a better chance of lasting home over this trip, leaving top-weight Fiver Friday as an interesting alternative, with jockey Robert Whearty claiming 5lb from the saddle.

DOWN ROYAL FORM GUIDE

Win: PSALM

Next Best: Glor Tire

Glor Tire won in good style over the extended 1m1f at Gowran Park last time and she looks primed to offer another bold bid, but a 7lb penalty will make life tougher. Therefore, preference is for PSALM, who is one of two saddled by Aidan O’Brien in this and he can shed his maiden tag on his handicap debut. This son of Sea The Stars is likely to appreciate this extra yardage and he was unlucky to be collared late over 1m2f at Cork last month. Ocean Of Dreams and Gibbs Island are also of interest.

DOWN ROYAL FORM GUIDE

Win: NUMIDIA

Next Best: Charlie Luciano

Charlie Luciano came out best in a three-way photo at Fairyhouse, but the margin of victory was such that a 4lb rise could find him out. El C Wells also prevailed only narrowly on her debut for Paul Mulligan at Navan, whereas NUMIDIA had six lengths to spare over the runner-up when triumphant at Fairyhouse. He clearly relished the half-mile rise to 1m4f that day, and this slightly extra yardage shouldn’t inconvenience him at all in his follow-up mission.

Win: YES OUI SI

Next Best: Lily Hart

Lily Hart will no doubt improve for last month’s reappearance when finding one too good over 1m2f. The Ballydoyle filly should be bang there at the finish, but YES OUI SI may edge this having posted her best effort so far when upped to 1m4f at the Curragh, finishing a respectable third. Dark Oak is another going the right way judged on last week’s placed effort at Fairyhouse and is preferred of the rest.

DOWN ROYAL FORM GUIDE

MAGICAL ZOE proved herself to not be out of place in Listed company when finishing fifth on her first start on the Flat at Cork last time. Henry De Bromhead’s classy hurdler will find this a lot easier and she looks difficult to oppose. The main threat might be Neptunes Staircase, who has finished second on his last three starts when competing in maiden company, although Stariam has also knocked hard on the door and should break through sooner rather than later.
