9st 1lb |
Both wins have come right-handed on yielding ground, over 1m3f last year and under a brilliant ride from the champion jockey over 9.5f at Gowran last month; has run well this way round, too; handled quick ground okay when ridden to get 1m4f (upped to this grade) at the Curragh last time; cheekpieces swapped for blinkers. |

9st 1lb |
Two-time winner on easy ground, including on latest at Gowran (9.5f, yielding); won over 1m3f (yielding) at Down Royal last season; 3lb rise for latest success seems reasonable and worth a try at this trip but could probably do with some rain. |

Landed 1m3f Down Royal handicap in September before disappointing favourite on the AW next time but had excuses; returned with encouraging fourth at Navan (1m2f, gd) 48 days ago, travelled well; set to come on for that and big player. |

In good form this season without winning; just touched off over this trip at Gowran and a close second over 1m3f at Naas; needs to bounce back after a below-par effort at Killarney last week but every chance that he will; cheekpieces tried. |

Won handicap at Dundalk over 1m in November off 3lb lower; two solid runs on turf when fifth and fourth at the Curragh and Leopardstown; bounced back after below-par effort to score at Limerick (yielding) on Wednesday, keeping on well to beat Mythical Rock by 1.25l; leading claims if backing up quickly. |

0-14 but has gone close at times; good run from a wide draw in a 7f Leopardstown (yielding to soft) contest, staying on well; another positive effort when third in a Limerick maiden in this headgear latest (1m, yielding); slowly away that day so effort can be marked up; not out of it. |

Got off the mark at Ballinrobe (9.5f, gd) last month, showing good attitude to beat Majestic King by 0.75l; beaten 2.75l into sixth under penalty 31 days ago at Killarney from bad draw under more patient tactics; danger but soft ground an unknown. |

Off the mark at Ballinrobe four days ago when he dug deep for a narrow success at the expense of the odds-on Majestic King who beat Can I Kiss You the run before; doesn't look obviously well in under a penalty and stall 14 isn't ideal, but must have a chance. |

Won in fine style at Gowran (1m, gd-yld) in May but paid a price for that 4l success, going up 10lb; soundly beaten off revised rating back at Gowran (9.5f, yielding); eased 1lb and the return to 1m is a plus but needs a career best off this mark. |

Recorded third turf win earlier this month at Roscommon under positive ride from today's rider (1m4f, good), overcoming wide draw and having been hampered; 5lb rise takes her back to a near career-high mark so interesting to see if she can back that up. |
