Leopardstown, 15:25 - Back Midnight Our Fred @ 6/17.00

From a mark of 109, 18lb below his chase mark, returning over hurdles, Midnight Our Fred could be able to put in a competitive effort under Danny Mullins. He failed to give his true running when last seen over fences at Cork, having been pulled up in a tough contest at Leopardstown prior, but finished second to West Cork Wildway in his previous appearance over timber, and could match that effort from a 3lb higher mark.

Trained by John Flavin, the nine-year-old is a winner over hurdles but has been mostly plying his trade over the larger obstacles in recent campaigns. He's well handicapped over flights, however, and could take advantage of a much lower mark to return to the winners' enclosure for the first time since the autumn of last season when successful at Gowran Park. 

Midnight Our Fred has shown a high level of form in the past and has plenty of ability on a going day. The return to this trip should suit the strong stayer, who holds solid claims as he bids for a third career win in his 22nd appearance.

Leopardstown, 15:25 - Back He's Home Again E/W @ 14/115.00

Eight-year-old gelding He's Home Again makes his first appearance since finishing sixth in the November Cork contest which also featured Midnight Our Fred. That was his first run for 217 days, and, although needing to defy another 100-day absence, may be able to fare better from a 1lb lower mark.

The Edward Cawley-trained contender has shown snippets of potential in previous runs, including when winning at the Mallow in March 2024 from a 5lb lower rating. He hasn't been seen often since, therefore remains somewhat unexposed and could be capable of better.

Conditions as well as the trip should suit the son of Mount Nelson, and he warrants each-way consideration at a price of 14/115.00.

Wolverhampton, 19:30 - Back Riot E/W @ 22/123.00

Riot has struggled for form for Charlie Wallis since leaving the David O'Meara yard late last year. He returns to the scene of his last win, however, which could spark some improvement, now on an 8lb lower mark of 65.

The course-and-distance winner hasn't been able to get involved in recent runs at Chelmsford and Kempton, but is better than shown in those appearances and it may be too early to give up on him. He's on a workable mark if able to return to some form, with cheekpieces applied for the first time for his current trainer.

The addition of headgear could also spark a resurgence, and, with a favourable trip from stall 4, the son of Kingman could be able to improve plenty on his recent run of form in the hands of in-form rider Rob Hornby.
