9st 8lb |
Back-to-back AW winner in December over 7f and landed Bellewstown handicap (1m, soft) in April but well held both starts since, not looking to stay extended 1m2f at Roscommon latest; opposable off current mark. |

Back-to-back AW winner in December over this trip; hadn't impressed in five previous turf runs but turned that on its head when landing a Bellewstown handicap off 67 eight days ago (1m, soft); can't be ruled out but others preferred. |

Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap at Naas in May 2024; solid effort when over 1m at Bellewstown in April and backed that up with a close third over 6f at Naas last month; 1-22 record on turf is a concern but those recent efforts have been encouraging |

9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap (good) on this card in 2024 and he's just 1lb higher now; solid effort over 1m at Bellewstown latest (soft); should get a strong pace to aim at here and not discounted. |

Four-time AW winner is 1-19 on turf; is 2lb below that last turf win which came at Naas (5f, good) in May 2024; handles an ease but this trip may just stretch his stamina. |

Three-time turf winner who appreciates an ease in the ground; 3lb above his last success in September at Roscommon (7.5f, soft); positive return to turf at Bellewstown (1m, soft) two weeks ago when fourth of 14 following a poor effort at Dundalk prior; no surprise to see him feature. |

Three-time turf winner who appreciates an ease in the ground; 5lb above his last success in September at Roscommon (7.5f, soft) but has run well here before and had a recent run at Dundalk so he'll be fit; each-way shout. |

Four-time winner (one at this venue); very comfortable winner of a Roscommon handicap in September off 59 (7.5f, soft); not at the same level off higher mark since; weakened into tenth over 10.5f here latest; this trip looks more suitable but has never won from a mark this high. |

0-8 and yet to trouble the judge but has shown glimmers of ability; hinted more than once last season that he needed further than 1m2f but weakened over that trip on return at Navan last month; blinkers now go on, but this trip is a query. |
