MARTINELLI made a good return from 5 months off when third in a big-field Curragh handicap (1m) 6 weeks ago and, entitled to strip fitter for that, he looks a likely player from this mark. Secret Magician and Everylittlestep are others to consider. Counterculture completes the shortlist.

    Verdict
    Won at Roscommon in August but never looked like justifying support after 5 months off when fifteenth of 17 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good) 26 days ago, beaten early in the straight. That ought to have blown the cobwebs away and she's worth a second look.

    Modest handicapper (stays 1¼m) who shed maiden tag at Hamilton (9f) in August. Efforts mixed thereafter, unable to get to the front when sixth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (1m). Returns having changed hands cheaply and others rate stronger.
