Never competitive on the AW last time and runs Dundalk well, but won over Tipperary's 1m4f the run before; can cope with this 5lb higher mark, won't mind rain and his jockey has won the last two renewals of this. |

9st 1lb |
Took her Irish trainer's record with runners here to 3-8 when justifying favouritism over C&D four days ago; that came in a 0-55 handicap that panned out nicely and this is tougher under the penalty, but she's respected. |

Irish raider who is on a dangerous mark but her last win was 13 months ago and she's been inconsistent this year; comes with risks attached and she's untried on Tapeta. |

Off the mark at Killarney off 7lb lower (1m, soft); another fine run at Listowel last month when a close second (1m, heavy); below her best when finishing behind The Blue Panther at Bellewstown latest; can get involved on her best form. |

AW winner is 0-15 on the grass; has shaped well in two of his last four turf starts, including when a 3.5l third of 21 at Cork last time (a few of these behind); however, 6lb wrong here so this looks a tough task. |

Rattled up a hat-trick in 0-50 classified events on Tapeta for Daragh Bourke (7f-9.5f) in January; has run with credit in her last three starts for this yard, but still has to conclusively prove she wants this far. |

Rattled up a hat-trick for Daragh Bourke (7f-9.5f) earlier in the year; similar level of form since joining this trainer, runner-up over 8.5f here on penultimate start, and perhaps found 1m4f too far at Catterick (6-4 favourite) a fortnight ago; chance. |

Won three classified events at up to 9.4f in the space of four days in January when trained by Daragh Bourke; better effort in handicaps for new yard when second off 11 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 19 days ago; good shout on that form buts need to prove that he's as effective on turf (0-9) and that he has the stamina for this much longer trip. |

Four-time winner on turf at 6f-1m, including when bolting up over C&D under this rider in October from 7lb lower; showed a return to form last two outings at the Curragh and will be dangerous if allowed to dictate matters. |
