Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Payslip heads our ratings on 101, a clear 8 lb better than Certavi Et Vici on 93, and that gap is the heart of the case on a soft-ground 18-furlong test at Wexford. Certavi Et Vici and Back In Favour, rated 92, are the chief dangers, with Lest Ye Forget a little further back on 88, while the seven unrated runners add uncertainty in a field of 11. Payslip's superior figure makes this the one to side with, even if confidence is only low. Our selection is Payslip.
Runners
Mr D L Queally
Declan Queally 0/2
B U Train is unraced on our figures, so she arrives a blank canvas and plenty remains open to improvement. She carries 165 lb on debut, and with nothing to go on yet she is best judged on what she shows here.

Miss A B O'Connor
A. McCann 1/7
Back In Favour is a leading danger, having made the frame in two of her last three starts, a third two starts back and another three starts back, after winning five starts back, and she's fit after just 12 days off. The main risk is an unplaced run last time out, while 165 lb is a hefty burden.

Mr D O'Sullivan (7)
P A Fahy 2/12
Lightly raced and unexposed, Better Be Elusive was unplaced on her only recent start and returns after 316 days off, so fitness is the question. Winless in that sole run, she carries 165 lb and may have more to offer.

Mr Finn Buckley (7)
Nigel Thomas Slevin 0/3
Certavi Et Vici arrives fit enough after a third last time out 30 days ago, and she is yet to win in her last start but ranks second of 11 on our rating, making her a leading threat. The main risk is the 165 lb she must carry.

Mr D G Lavery
Gavin Cromwell 4/26
Payslip has finished second in each of her last three starts, a consistent run that makes her the one to beat, and she tops our ratings at 101 on 165 lb. The only reservation is a 103-day layoff, though she remains yet to win in that spell.

P O'Rourke 0/0
Slaney Valley is unexposed and open to improvement, with just one recent run on her card, when she was pulled up 79 days ago. She is yet to win in that sample and carries 165 lb, so she needs to bounce back from that setback.

Mr E P O'Brien (5)
M A Cahill 0/1
Itsasham is an unexposed filly with no recorded form to lean on, so she's one to learn about on the day, and she shoulders 164 lb. Lightly raced, she's open to improvement, though there's nothing on the page yet to prove it.

Terence O'Brien 0/2
Lake Pippaway is lightly raced and yet to win, but she showed more in a sixth two starts back before a seventh last time out, and a 48-day break could help her. Carrying 164 lb, she remains unexposed and open to improvement.

Patrick John Kiely 0/2
Fifth on her only recent start and she has had a long break, but she has run on today's going before and our rating of 88 ranks her fourth of 11, which makes her a leading danger. The main risk is fitness, with 295 days since her last run and 164 lb to carry.

Morning Rose is unraced, so she's a blank canvas with no form to lean on and plenty of scope for improvement. She carries 164 lb on debut, and this unexposed filly will have to show what she can do.
