Dual winner on the AW at 10.5f-1m4f in February/March; put a poor Bellewstown run behind him when taking the runner-up spot at Leopardstown (1m1f, yielding to soft) last time; unproven at this trip. |

Five-time winner was wonderfully consistent in defeat on AW over winter/spring, placing in four consecutive runs at 1m4f-2m; continued that form back on turf at Roscommon (1m4f, yielding to soft) in May when again a runner-up; a visor replaced the previously worn cheekpieces at Navan (1m5f, good) last time and resulted in a victory; up 5lb but he's a player. |

Knocking on the door on the AW earlier this year; fine run on return to turf when a 1.75l second at Roscommon (Mapa behind); nudged up 1lb but should be thereabouts again; visor goes on. |

Gained reward for a string of solid efforts when winning at Navan (1m5f, good) last month and only narrowly failed to follow up at Bellewstown five days later, getting caught on the line over 1m7f after forcing it; up a total of 12lb for those efforts so more needed. |

Gained reward for a string of solid efforts when always well positioned and winning at Navan (1m5f, good) 25 days ago; 6lb higher now but rider's 2lb claim partly negates that; consistent sort is a big player again. |

AW winner over 10.5f in March and her higher-grade third at Naas was a good effort; 1m4f has seemed a bridge too far, though, and long way behind Masego over that trip at Bellewstown; excuse for latest run (1m2f) at Navan. |

Won over 1m2f on the AW in March wearing first-time blinkers and easily her best run since when a staying-on third over 1m3f at Naas (good); well held from wide draw at Bellewstown latest but not one to rule out. |

Admirable veteran gained a fourth turf win on the Flat at Sligo in May (1m6f, yld-sft); has come up short off revised mark since but has C&D form figures of 124 and the win came off 6lb higher than he is here; could go well. |

Ex-Irish maiden who was quick to make her mark for Daragh Bourke, landing 1m5f classified event at Ayr before following up in 1m4f Musselburgh handicap later in June; posted another good effort under a penalty with fourth at Ayr (1m5f) last time; major player. |

Well beaten in a low-grade Irish handicap hurdle in May but 2-2 for new stable since returning to the Flat last month, the wins gained over C&D (soft) and at Musselburgh (1m4f, good); probably still on a good mark under 4lb penalty for latter success, and commands respect in current mood. |

Landed a gamble on British/stable debut in 1m5f Ayr classified contest 11 days ago (soft), leading on the bridle 2f out before driven clear to win by 4l; today's underfoot conditions might be quicker, and this is a sharper track, but she could well be up to defying a 7lb rise. |
