Won her maiden on good ground and, back under similar conditions, she found only one too good at Clonmel (2m3f); solid chance off 1lb higher.

Useful form in the first half of last season on decent ground, won a Down Royal maiden after several solid placed efforts; very soft ground was against her on reappearance at Limerick last month; may begin to prosper again on better going.

Held his form well after winning a Down Royal handicap last August (2m1f, good to firm); back from a break, he appeared to get outstayed by the front two over 2m3f at Cork; no match for an easy winner at Tramore; one of the main contenders here.

Improved significantly on better ground and reportedly settled better when getting up late to land a Sligo maiden hurdle last month; might benefit from a longer trip but probably still capable of improvement, and the stable has been known to come alive at this meeting.

Too keen and tailed off in both bumpers; improved when hooded on hurdles debut at Wexford, although again somewhat headstrong; failed to build on that at Tramore, faded after a bad blunder three out.

J: Keith Donoghue

Finally made the breakthrough in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle in June (2m3f, good) at the 35th attempt, having placed on numerous occasions; didn't bring that momentum to a beginners' chase at Wexford last time when pulled up after he made a bad mistake at the first and lost his action; overall record is off-putting.

Long-standing maiden finally got it done when winning readily over hurdles last month; second in three of 13 chase starts, and some fair runs over fences without being placed in April/May; these types can kick on once they get their heads in front, and Donoghue prefers him to Sophia Rose.

Point-to-point winner last November and was in fairly good form following that until weakening quickly and being pulled up at Kilbeggan last time (2m3f, good to yielding); took a 3.25l fourth over 2m here (soft) on penultimate; in the mix if bouncing back.
