3:41 Gowran Park

The KTB Fit ranking

1. 1Sea Of Doubt KTB Selection65/100

   Form 32U641 · Ian Patrick Donoghue

   Sea Of Doubt is a useful performer with solid recent form that includes a win and two placed efforts from his last six starts. He steps up in trip today while making his first appearance at Gowran Park. The yard has a 10% strike rate here from 20 runs but the horse remains unproven on yielding to soft ground. Usually held up, he produces his effort late and that run-style should suit the expected steadily-run affair. Rated OR 100 and carrying a recent form line of 32U641, he is the KTB Selection.

2. 2The Monkey Pole65/100

   Form -4P355 · N Dooly

   The Monkey Pole is a useful performer who has shown consistent form this year with three placed efforts from his last five starts. He drops back in trip today having not tried this exact distance before and makes his first appearance at Gowran Park. The yard has a solid 10% strike rate from 39 runs here while he remains unproven on yielding to soft ground. Usually held up with high confidence in that assessment, he produces his effort late and should be suited by a tactical race. Rated OR 100 with recent form figures of -4P355, he shares top billing on the KTB Fit ratings.

3. 3Getaway Charlie58/100

   Form 00-401 · Timothy Doyle · Mr D Doyle(5)

   Getaway Charlie is a useful performer who showed a bit more when winning over this trip at the fourth attempt. He has run only once here and pulled up, while the trainer's modest 4% strike-rate at Gowran from a big sample suggests limited encouragement. The jockey has a solid 10% record at the track from ten rides and the horse has placed once from four starts on yielding to soft. Usually held up with high confidence, he produces his effort late and that should fit the shape of a steadily-run race. Rated OR 99 with form figures of 00-401, he remains competitive at this level.

4. 4Tara Boe58/100

   Form 49P/80 · A. McCann · James Smith(5)

   Tara Boe is a fair performer who has struggled since returning from a long absence, finishing well beaten on both starts this year. He steps up in trip today having failed to trouble the judge in two previous attempts at this distance. Trainer and jockey both have solid records at Gowran Park, with the yard on 12% and the 5 lb claimer on 17%. Usually races handily though with only limited evidence, he could be seen to better effect if the race lacks early pace. Rated OR 84 with recent form of 49P/80, he has the figures to find improvement.

5. 5Moorish Castle56/100

   Form /65FP- · P A Fahy · Richard Condon(5)

   Moorish Castle is a useful performer who has shown ability on his better days but has been out of form on his last two completed starts. He drops back from 3m to a trip he has tried twice without success. The trainer's modest 5% strike rate at Gowran is offset by the jockey's solid 12% record here from limited rides. Usually held up with high confidence, he produces his effort late and that should align with the tactical nature of the race. Rated OR 97 with form figures of /65FP-, he retains each-way interest on his best days.

6. 6Larkins Lane55/100

   Form 911842 · P J Rothwell · Mr R Sugrue(7)

   Larkins Lane is a fair performer who arrives in solid form after winning twice this year and finishing a close second last time. He steps up in trip today having already won twice over this distance from six attempts. The trainer has a modest 4% strike rate from 395 runs at Gowran while the jockey has no recorded rides here.

7. 7Laska Du Breuil54/100

   Form 96P-10 · Gavin Cromwell · Keith Donoghue

   Laska Du Breuil is a useful performer who showed a sharp return to form when winning at Fairyhouse last month after a patchy spell. He has not managed a place in two runs at this trip and was well beaten on his only start on yielding to soft ground. Trainer and jockey both have modest strike rates at Gowran on their numerous visits.

8. 8Ordered Lives52/100

   Form 300/8- · Martin Paul Fitzgerald · Niall Moore(5)

   Ordered Lives is a fair performer who has been out of form for some time and showed little on his return when eighth of nine at this track last month. He has never won or placed in two runs here or over today's trip, and his sole run on yielding to soft ground also brought no joy. The trainer continues in solid form at Gowran but the jockey's modest strike rate at the track adds little confidence.

9. 9Duke Otto51/100

   Form 8P40-P · Patrick J Flynn · Conor Smithers(7)

   Duke Otto is a useful performer who has run four times at Gowran without placing and now steps up in trip having been out of form on his last two starts. The yard's modest 7% strike rate here from a huge sample is another negative while the 7 lb claimer is still seeking a first course winner from only eight rides. Trip is an unknown at this stage.

10. 10Space Warrior51/100

    Form P63-99 · Thomas Mullins

    Space Warrior is a useful performer who has been out of form on his last two starts and now steps up in trip for the first time. He has shown nothing on yielding to soft ground in two previous attempts and the yard's modest 7% strike rate at Gowran Park adds no encouragement. First run here after 24 starts elsewhere makes this a watching brief at best.

11. 11At The Wings51/100

    Form 0-7751 · Norman Lee · Shane O'Callaghan(3)

    At The Wings is a fair performer who landed a handicap at the fifth attempt last time and has a solid recent record overall. He steps up in trip today having shown little in two previous tries at this distance, while he is unproven on yielding to soft ground. The trainer has a good record here but the jockey's strike rate is modest.

12. 12No Big Deal50/100

    Form 4098-8 · Charles O'Brien · Mark Walsh

    No Big Deal is a useful performer who has been below form on his last few starts and ran no better than mid-division when last seen at this track. He has shown some ability on yielding to soft ground but has never won in 23 starts and his record here reads 0-3. Trainer and jockey both have modest strike rates at Gowran Park.

13. 13Drumconnor Hill50/100

    Form -8470P · Cian Collins · Jordan Gainford

    Drumconnor Hill is a useful performer who has struggled to make an impact in recent starts with a string of modest efforts including a pulled-up last time. He drops back in trip today having been tried over further on his most recent outing and the small sample on this ground leaves suitability open to question. The trainer is without a winner from 14 runs at Gowran while the jockey has a solid 11% strike rate here from 53 rides.

14. 14Rumble Demosa50/100

    Form 770 · Eoin Griffin · Ricky Doyle

    Rumble Demosa is a useful performer who has been well beaten in both completed starts over hurdles. He steps up in trip today having looked short of stamina last time, which asks a fresh question. The trainer's modest record at Gowran is offset by the jockey's solid strike rate at the track.

15. 15Tudorista49/100

    Form 0-4P05 · Edward F Power · Cian Quirke

    Tudorista is a fair performer on the balance of his ratings and race history. He steps up in trip having been placed without winning at this distance, though he remains unproven on yielding to soft ground. The jockey has a solid 9% strike rate from 34 rides at Gowran, while the trainer has no prior runners here.

16. 16Shortt Fuse47/100

    Form 08P7- · Ms Helen P Markham · Josh Williamson(3)

    Shortt Fuse is a fair performer who has struggled in four starts so far, finishing well beaten on each completed run. The trip looks a fair test on paper having already tried it twice without success, while the yard has a modest record here from 18 runners. The 3 lb claimer has a solid strike rate at Gowran and that is the main positive.

17. 17Esticky End46/100

    Form -7P211 · Tom McGuinness · Dylan Robinson

    Esticky End is a fair performer who has won at today's trip and arrives in decent form having won two of his last three starts. He has been well held in three runs at Gowran Park though and the trainer has a poor record here. The jockey has a solid course strike-rate but the horse is unproven on yielding to soft ground.

18. 18Glendaars Secret45/100

    Form 060 · Dermot A McLoughlin · P J O'Hanlon

    Glendaars Secret is a useful performer on the balance of recent form but has only had three starts and remains lightly raced. He steps up markedly in trip today while wearing first-time headgear, both of which pose fresh questions. The trainer has a modest 6% strike rate here from 79 runs while the jockey is still seeking a first winner from 34 rides at Gowran.

19. 19Mother Ship43/100

    Form 807221 · John Joseph Hanlon · Darragh O'Keeffe

    Mother Ship is a fair sort who arrives in decent nick after two placed efforts at around this trip. He steps up in distance again today having shown he handles the range without winning, though he remains unproven on yielding to soft ground. The trainer's modest 5% strike rate from 299 runs at Gowran and the jockey's 7% from 126 rides add little encouragement on his first run here.

20. 20Flash The Badge43/100

    Form 000-79 · John McConnell · Alex Harvey

    Flash The Badge is a fair performer who has been well held in both starts this season. He steps up in trip for the first time today while wearing first-time headgear. The trainer has a modest 5% strike rate at Gowran from a large sample and the jockey is still seeking a first winner here from 14 rides.

21. 21Online Order41/100

    Form 7686 · Liam P Cusack · Daniel King

    Online Order is a fair performer on his figures but has been ordinary in four starts so far, finishing no closer than sixth. The step up in trip looks a logical move yet he has already tried this distance once without success. Trainer and jockey both have modest records at Gowran Park.

22. 22Not So Proper36/100

    Form 00/P0- · C Byrnes · Tom Kelly(7)

    Not So Proper is a fair performer who has struggled since returning from a long absence and looks short of his best at present. He steps up in trip today having shown little at 2m last time. The trainer has a solid 10% strike rate at Gowran from a big sample but the 7lb claimer has only one ride here so far.

23. 23Phildante36/100

    Form 64F106 · Eoin Doyle · Harry Sexton(7)

    Phildante is a fair performer who has been in and out of form this year with a win and two placed efforts among his last six starts.

The trainer holds a solid record at the track while the jockey is less established here and the horse remains unproven on yielding to soft ground.
