Nine-time winner, including twice over C&D; no joy yet this season, going closest on latest when staying on well into second late on behind 0.5l winner Mary Shoelaces over C&D last month on ground on the quick side for him; nice turn around in the weights with that rival, with rider now claiming.

Ex-Irish (one win); has started to threaten for this yard and he wasn't beaten far when fourth of 11 at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) last Friday; dropped a further 2lb and he won't mind what the weather does; considered.

J: Silvestre De Sousa

Ex-Irish 4yo; slow start to life with this stable but he has dropped in the weights and his last two runs have been more encouraging, notably his Pontefract third eight days ago; should go well.

Form & Verdict
Ordinary form in turf maidens; hugely improved when switched to 5f nurseries at Dundalk, winning twice before confirming rate of progress with an odds-on win in a conditions event over the same course and trip; went off too fast when raised in class on seasonal debut in a 5f Listed race at Cork; held by Sir Yoshi on that running.

Second runner for yard; all four wins have come on AW but front-runner was second in this race last year off 2lb lower; just denied at Dundalk last time and 2lb lower on turf, so should go well.

Speedy filly has an excellent strike rate over C&D (4-6) including this race last year off 2lb lower; went close behind Howd'yadoit at Navan in May but has failed to fire in three runs since; return to this track offers hope of a revival and cheekpieces are added; bold bid likely from plum draw.

Has only won on the AW but nearly put that right in a 5f handicap at Navan last month; not suited by the rain-hit ground when well beaten in the Dash at Epsom; failed to maintain a strong gallop in a Cork Listed race in which Likedbymike and Erosandpsyche were placed.

Sole win in 20 starts came in Cork maiden in October 2024, but has been in excellent form this year in sprints, including runner-up efforts in Listed company over C&D (behind Mission Central) and Cork; never involved here 12 days ago, but type to bounce back and enjoys this track; the one to beat.

Sole win in 19 starts came in Cork maiden but has strung together a series of good efforts in decent sprint company this season, notably seconds in Listed events both here and at Cork, most recently third in conditions event here early in the month; best form at 5f so possibly vulnerable at this longer trip.
