9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some good runs in defeat in four maidens, including when beaten a head by Madbadanddangerous over C&D last month (yielding to soft); couldn't justify 5-6 favouritism at Thurles three days ago (1m, good to yielding) and McMonagle jumps off now. |

Encouraging debut at Leopardstown before hitting the frame in 7f Galway maiden; headed late on when narrowly denied at Naas (7f, yielding to soft) in first-time tongue-tie (retained) three weeks ago; the third bolted up at Killarney on Monday; sets a good standard up in trip. |

Encouraging debut at Leopardstown when beaten roughly 6l before hitting the frame in a Galway maiden over this trip (beaten roughly 2l); form has a solid look to it and he's a big player if he takes to the first-time tongue-tie given that we know he'll handle conditions. |

Beaten a length and then a head in a pair of 1m maidens at Dundalk in November; too keen in early stages on handicap debut at Navan over 1m2f in May; well beaten in a maiden back at Dundalk last time; holds the top Flat rating (80) in this field and is courtesy of those efforts; big player. |

Beaten a length, then a head, in pair of 1m maidens here in November; on recent return, was too keen down the hill in the early stages at Navan on handicap debut over 1m2f; stamina-laden Aga Khan pedigree on dam's side but needs to settle. |

Handicap debutant; promise in Tipperary maiden last August; proved that was no fluke with a 1l third behind Manton Bay at Dundalk (1m) in November; denied by a short head over the same C&D later that month; should stay this far on breeding and the form of his last run has worked out; chance if ready after break. |

Showed ability in a Galway maiden last year when with Mick Mulvany; well backed into joint-favouritism for return at Fairyhouse, but didn't feature; off the bridle 3f out when okay fifth here over 10.5f (soft); had a wide trip from a bad draw when fourth over 1m3f at Naas and reckon he's on a good mark now; not bred to stay, but might. |

Didn't progress as a two-year-old last year; backed into favouritism on debut for this yard at Fairyhouse in May but couldn't make an impact; didn't fare much better up to this trip when well-held fifth at Down Royal on soft 14 days ago; probably capable of better but hard to fancy; one of two for stable. |

Nursery form on turf left a lot to be desired last year but ran much better upped to this trip when beaten 4.5l into fourth by Keepsgettingbetter last month over C&D; poor run again on turf 12 days ago in first-time blinkers; can bounce back on the AW and an each-way contender. |

Sprang a 33-1 surprise in a C&D maiden (good) last July; last of six in Tipperary listed race the following month; weakened on soft ground upped to 1m on handicap debut here when last seen in October; gelded, 4lb lower now and worth a market check on return. |
