8st 13lb |
Sole win in 14 races came in a maiden but he's been banging on the door in handicaps, including races won by Rosie Frith and last time Moltophino; back up 3lb for last time but he was clear of the third, and has to enter the reckoning. |

Won C&D maiden (yielding) in May; three fine runs in defeat in handicaps since and was beaten just 0.75l off 2lb higher at the Curragh (5f, gd-fm) when last seen in July; this is a stronger race but can't be discounted. |

Prospered after joining this yard, three wins over 5f from six starts at Dundalk; progress stalled when tried over 6f in February and finished last of ten, too bad to be true; much more like it when returning from a break to finish fourth over 5f at the Curragh last month. |

8st 7lb |
Several good runs in a busy campaign; 3lb out of the weights but a repeat of his close fourth in a premier handicap here in June wouldn't see him far away; reportedly pulled a front shoe when below par last time. |

Started this season 10lb higher after winning a backend maiden over 5f; first two handicap runs (all of them have been on straight tracks) were good but has struggled lately; yard in form and blinkers now tried. |

Signed off last season with a C&D maiden win on soft; respectable handicap form this term, never worse than fifth in four races; does not need to improve much to open his handicap account. |

Won over 6f at Curragh in March and some solid efforts since up to 7f and has run well over C&D; goes well on soft and his mark is looking attractive so one to consider. |

Goes well on straight tracks and on testing ground; just two runs here, not beaten far in last year's renewal but 7f seems to stretch him. |

3-8 at Dundalk, 1-11 on turf; sixth of 12 behind Cuban Grey at Dundalk before finishing in rear at the Curragh in June; this is likely to prove too competitive for him. |

Had been a frustrating maiden until winning twice this year including over C&D; not beaten far on two of three starts since including a fine Navan run last time; can be involved. |

In good form this summer over this trip on quick ground, winning at this venue and Bellewstown; not a bad effort after aggregate 17lb rise when fifth of 17 at the Curragh, staying on after briefly short of room; put a blot on his record on latest. |

One of two for yard; won off 9lb higher at Cork last season; no joy yet this year but shaped better than the result over C&D when last seen in June; eased 4lb, drops in class, yard in red-hot form and rain no problem; interesting. |

Verdict
Having run a cracker at the Curragh last time after 170 days away, PRAIRIE GIRL can improve enough from that to get her first turf win off the same mark. Dual course winner Harry’s Hill won at the Curragh last time and has to be respected. Namiid and Bad Boy Rizz shouldn’t be far away. [Tyrone Molloy]
