Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; tailed off on debut for this stable in the Irish Lincolnshire last month; acts on most ground but can only be watched after that latest effort. |

Won five races for Joe Murphy; acts on heavy ground and could be a useful recruit to the Burns yard; 6lb higher than for his last win, which was achieved at the main expense of Akecheta at Tipperary. |

9st 10lb |
Twice a winner last season; mixed bag this term, standout effort when coming from way back to finish third to Kashel Spring (Its All Peachy second) at Punchestown last month; six days later didn't count on heavy ground at Listowel (1m); has to be considered back on better ground, with this longer trip likely to suit. |

Dependable last season in contrast to her profile this year; shaped as if she was becoming competitive again when fifth of 15 at Leopardstown last month; did not give her apprentice rider much help at Punchestown last week, ran on well late, |

Mudlark has been in and out this season; his last run at Tipperary was definitely an out when getting his ground but finishing 18l behind the winner; his run prior at Listowel was decent when a close fifth (8.5f, heavy); serious stamina concerns at this trip. |

9st 6lb |
Won a Galway maiden on second start for Joseph O'Brien in October 2024 but no joy since, although second to Flying Fortress in Listowel handicap; three runs over hurdles since joining Ado McGuinness before tame Curragh effort last time; new headgear combination tried and handicapper giving her a chance. |

Won a Galway maiden on second start for Joseph O'Brien in October 2024 but no joy since; has had three runs over hurdles since joining Ado McGuinness so will at least be fit and new visor might provide a spark. |

28th Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 0y |

Flat winner is rated 75 in that sphere following a host of runner-up finishes for Joseph O'Brien; well beaten on hurdling/stable debut at Thurles (2m, heavy), but improved effort at Hereford when a 6l runner-up, getting tired late on (2m, heavy); that's something to build on. |

Remains a maiden after 14 races; positives can be taken from last month's C&D second, which gives him an edge over several members of this field; that was on soft and better ground should suit on the evidence of his Dundalk form; however, he is not well treated relative to I'm Spartacus based on a clash in March. |

Three-time AW winner (twice over the extended 1m2f at Dundalk); out of form on turf last season but some good runs this term, second over this trip at Naas and dead-heating for fourth over 1m2f at Leopardstown despite not getting the clearest of runs; down the field behind Final Voyage here nine day ago. |

Three-time AW winner (twice at 1m2f); out of form on turf last season but some good runs this term, good second over inadequate 7f at Naas (soft) and nine days ago at Leopardstown when coming late to dead-heat for fourth with Amplitude over this trip, having not had the clearest of runs; better ground here to suit and has to be on the shortlist with rider now claiming 7lb. |

Strike-rate of 3-51; improved upon poor recent efforts when encountering good ground at Killarney (1m), finishing a close third after not getting a clear run; up 2lb but remains on a nice mark if backing up his last run. |

8st 10lb |
Dual-purpose; 5-55 on turf on the Flat but on losing run since scoring at Leopardstown (1m4f, heavy) in October 2024; is now 17lb below that win and she shaped promisingly over an inadequate 1m here 13 days ago in a first-time tongue tie (retained); could go well back up in trip. |

Ground-versatile sort won a Ballinrobe maiden (9.5f, good) and a Listowel handicap (8.5f, heavy) last season off 1lb lower; modest effort on seasonal return at Ballinrobe (9.5f, gd-yld) but sharper for that and can't be discounted with yard in form. |

3yo has won twice this season, including on latest at Listowel (8.5f, heavy) off 4lb lower (Quatre Bras 0.75l behind); ground conditions fine and should go well again if proving as effective on this track. |

Nothing like her best form in ten races since a 1m2f Ballinrobe win last June; unappealing in a sprint handicap at this stage of her career, although she won a maiden at around 6f at two. |
