Much improved handicapper, hat-trick of wins on soft/heavy completed in the spring at the Curragh and Cork; better again back on similar ground at Naas eight days ago, attempting to make all under top-weight, only collared late on; upped in class here and would prefer it softer.

Arrives in search of a fourth straight win following victories in big-field handicaps at the Curragh in November (7f, heavy) and on seasonal return in April (1m, soft to heavy), continued progression when successful over C&D last month (soft), ahead of Collecting Coin and Gleneagle Bay; up another 5lb and better ground raises a question.

Six-time AW winner in Britain and some very solid handicap efforts here early in the year; off since May but not hard to make a case for overall.

All six wins have been gained on AW; in good form at Dundalk last winter, soft ground probably wasn't ideal on turf comeback (slowly away) over C&D early this month and fair bit to find with Gleneagle Bay on that run.

Six of his eight wins have come at this track from a mark as high as 87; hasn't won since summer 2024 though and bit to find with several of these on recent C&D form behind stablemate Longseoir.

Veteran is an eight-time winner (1-6 on AW), the last of those at Fairyhouse in 2024; ran a good race from a wide draw at that venue on penultimate but not as good at Limerick since; handicapped to go close if running to his ability.

Dropped into 0-60 company and back to form when a 0.5l third of 14 at Down Royal (1m5f, soft) a week ago; needs to back that up now on quicker ground in this tougher grade.
