Westminster Moon^t¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| T: A J Martin| OR: 105

One-time smart performer on the level in . Nowhere near that level when sixth of 16 in novice hurdle at Killarney (17f, good, 10/1) on NH debut 13 days ago. Market perhaps best guide given stable down slightly in class back on the Flat.

Form: 33523-0

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| T: A McGuinness| OR: 97| C| D

Course winner. Excellent fourth of 9 in handicap at Cork (12f, good, 14/1) 18 days ago. Eased 1 lb and a repeat of that level will see him bang there again.

Form: 15-7694

(14)

Aeronautic^t²⁷⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 96

Maiden-novice winner last summer and creditable 2 lengths fourth of 8 to Chemistry in listed race (4/1) at Leopardstown (14f, good). Off 9 months. Down in trip for handicap debut and may have more to offer given yard he represents.

Age: 9| Weight: 9-10| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 96| CD

C&D winner. 10/1, last of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good). Off 8 months and this no easy race for return.

C&D winner. 11¼ lengths eleventh of 16 to Apercu in handicap at Cork (10.4f, soft, 14/1) 35 days ago, missing break and not given a hard time. Down to his last winning mark and much better expected this time.

Form: 48008-0

(12)

(13)

Apercu^b¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| T: J M Barrett| OR: 90| D

50/1, first run since leaving A. McIntyre when twenty sixth of 27 in handicap at this course (8f, soft) 69 days ago. Back up in trip and needs to leave that low-key reappearance well behind.

Form: 30416-0

(11)

Cloud Seeker¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| T: A Slattery| OR: 88| D

Enhanced excellent strike rate and better than ever when winning 10-runner handicap (10/3) at Leopardstown (10f, good) 13 days ago by neck from Ceallach, all out. Up 4 lb in a better race but he needs considering.

Form: 1111-81

(6)

Forecasts

Himalayan Heights (5/1), Aeronautic (11/2), Cloud Seeker (6/1), Apercu (13/2), Nurburgring (8/1), Ceallach (10/1), Dutch Gold (10/1), Zoffman (10/1), Star Harbour (12/1), Molto Amichi (14/1), Mashhoor (14/1), Retracement (16/1), Longbourn (25/1), Jungle Cove (25/1), Mr Rango (33/1), Soaring Monarch (33/1), Final Voyage (33/1), Cheers Again (33/1), Westminster Moon (50/1)

Low-mileage 4-y-o HIMALAYAN HEIGHTS took his form to a completely different level when a ready winner at Leopardstown on return last month and now looks a handicapper to follow. This is competitive, with recent 1-2 Cloud Seeker and Ceallach in-form rivals, while Molto Amichi warrants consideration at the foot of the weights.
