Heavily-raced gelding recorded a seventh AW win recently; turf record is less persuasive (3-71), though some encouragement can be taken from last month's third of 20 at Leopardstown. |

10st 2lb |
Six-time course winner with his last win coming over 7f here in March last year off 72; modest 3-71 strike-rate on turf but excellent third of 20 over 1m at Leopardstown 11 days ago, headed in closing stages; big player in current mood under 10lb claimer. |

Six-time Dundalk winner with his last win coming over C&D this time last year off 72; one of three runners for the stable; hard to be confident given his modest turf win record (3-70). |

Can start slowly but often comes home well; two wins over this trip and would have been up in another stride or two at Dundalk last time; goes well at this, his local track, too. |

C&D winner in September from 7lb lower; got going too late when beaten favourite at Cork end of last term; slowly away and eased once chance was gone on return at Gowran a fortnight ago; should be sharper now. |

Gained just second win from 39 starts when springing 50-1 shock in 7f course claimer in December; creditable efforts in two handicaps here since for new yard; below best on softish ground at Leopardstown eight days ago but player back on this surface. |

Maiden after 15 starts; placed only twice, including on latest when never-nearer third of 12 here (7f) 13 days ago; each-way player if he sees out the extra furlong from unchanged mark. |

Has done a lot of racing since C&D win off 47 just over a year ago, one of only two wins in 48-race career; solid third in C&D handicap earlier this month; raced keenly from wide draw at Gowran on latest; contender at his best. |

Weak maiden form; big price when failing to make any impression at the Curragh on handicap debut; tailed off on AW debut in November but was drawn wide on first try at 10.5f; returns from break with Colin Keane booked so market must be monitored; cheekpieces. |
20/1 |

By far the best of three maiden runs came over 1m at Navan last time; of interest on handicap debut if supported in the market. |
