9st 8lb |
Gained his second career win and second win at Gowran off 4lb lower on penultimate (1m, good); ran on well for fifth off revised mark in the Sovereign Path (7f, good) latest; down 1lb and the return to 1m is a plus; considered. |

Both turf wins have come at Gowran, most recently last month over 1m off 80, having previously gone close here over same trip under regular rider; 4lb rise okay but draw is a negative and soft ground a concern. |

Most recent win came in this race last year from a 1lb higher mark (1m, good); has worn a hood on his last two starts, which has resulted in a pair of seconds at 7f/1m; chance returned to the scene of his win wearing the hood. |

Record is 3-24; incurs 6lb penalty but is effectively striking while the iron's hot, having rallied to justify favouritism in Thirsk handicap (7f, good to soft) last Saturday; has form over 1m; enters calculations. |

Gained a second win over this trip at Leopardstown last season and successful over 1m since; back to form with 1l defeat at Gowran in July but couldn't build on that a fortnight ago; should be suited by the surface and Patrick Mullins is an eyecatching jockey booking; interesting contender despite not looking particularly well treated at present. |

Two wins in 2024 but has been in the handicapper's grip since; not a bad run at Fairyhouse latest (1m2f, good) but still beaten 8l and didn't look to be crying out for this longer trip; down in grade but others appeal more. |

First reserve; four wins here including three over C&D; is 12lb lower than when last winning here in March and signs of life over C&D on latest; lurking on a dangerous mark if she gets a run. |
