Progressive 6yo gained a third Kilbeggan win in May before landing C&D handicap success following month (Chanceawetmorning a disappointing favourite); Bellewstown run was disappointing but has to be respected on overall profile. |

Dual-purpose; three-time hurdles winner, all three wins coming at Kilbeggan at around 2m on decent ground; 0.75l win there on latest (Metamorpheus second); may not uphold that form off 6lb higher. |

107-rated hurdler won a maiden in that sphere last summer; ordinary enough Flat form and doubt dropping back from last two runs over 1m4f will be the answer. |

Has mixed it between Flat and hurdles effectively this year, winning on the level at Sligo and only worn down close home in 2m Galway handicap hurdle on Saturday; obvious chance if turning out quickly. |

Yet to get his head in front this summer but fine efforts in defeat in the Tribes at Galway and when beaten 1l over 2m1f at this venue behind the subsequent Galway hurdle winner; creeping up the weights and hasn't been shaping as though this longer trip is what he wants. |

Progressive for Gordon Elliott, winning three of five starts; handicaps at Kilbeggan and Clonmel and 3-runner 2m4f Roscommon novice; disappointing favourite however back in handicap over C&D in June when forcing tactics employed, fading badly once headed approaching the last in contest won by Malbay Madness; back from a break with questions to answer. |
