4:50 Leopardstown Tips

This horse is now six pounds below her last winning mark. I've tipped her a couple of times recently but for no return, and the truth is she hasn't looked in great form this year compared to last. But from this mark, in what should be a good opportunity, I am backing her one last time even at skinny odds. Now or never for me.

Don't see many Willie Mullins runners on the flat. After getting a breakthrough win and getting the draw here, looks one for the EW plots at least, with J. Sheridan up.

Kilcrea Rock is trained by Joseph O'Brien. After seven races he is still a maiden, though he has finished in the top four four times. This will be his first venture into handicap company and he is only one rating point higher than one horse rated below him. He appears to have a good draw coming out of stall thirteen. He has shown ability over today's distance, and with any improvement over the winter months he could go close on his seasonal reappearance.

Won a Dundalk maiden in February but struggled a little in handicaps since. Back down in grade today and is my each-way NAP today.

With his remarkable winter form, having clinched two consecutive wins at Dundalk, he is a strong each-way candidate at favourable odds. Under the guidance of M. D. O'Callaghan, he returns from a break in excellent condition and is likely carrying a lower turf handicap rating.

Unexposed 4yo filly, five career runs. She won an 18-runner maiden race last Sept, and three weeks later she lost by a neck on her handicap debut, clear of the rest. The winner is now rated 16 lb higher. She would be a big player today without any further improvement, but coming off a seven-month break could see her return much stronger.

This is very open and, with a run under his belt, Sonoran Appeals at 14/1. He has dropped to a good mark and has some useful snippets of form from last year.
