J: Shane Foley

T: Mrs John Harrington

1m4f Roscommon maiden winner (good) shaped promisingly when a 1.5l second of 24 on handicap debut here in May (1m6f, good) off 10lb lower; not disgraced in Cork Group 3 (1m4f, good) on latest, but 6lb rise for that makes things tougher back in handicap company.

Limerick maiden winner (on good ground) has failed to fire in two runs at Gowran this season, though this is more realistic than the Listed race she contested there last time; a drying track would aid her cause but needs to revive.

J: Declan McDonogh

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Sole success in Limerick maiden last June (1m4f, good); didn't really progress from that and finished well beaten both tries in Listed company last year; below best on seasonal return in a handicap here (1m4f, soft); this looks too demanding.

2-13 on the Flat, both wins coming at Down Royal over 10.5f (good) and 1m5f (yielding) last season; consistent this season, never worse than fifth in five outings; looked unlucky in running when fifth of 18 at Galway, capable of getting in the mix.

Two wins apiece on turf and AW up to 1m4f; best turf effort this term when second at Gowran last month; not as good over 1m2f twice since; stepping back up to this trip will suit and cheekpieces added.

J: Wayne Lordan

T: A Oliver

Shock 125-1 winner of Navan maiden last season, then placed on handicap debut at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); caught the eye making late gains over 1m2f here (good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (retained); eased 2lb for that 4.75l defeat (0.75l behind Cloud Seeker) and she's an intriguing runner for her in-form stable.

Sprang 125-1 shock in a 1m2f Navan maiden last September, proved that was no fluke later in the month when going down narrowly on handicap debut over 1m5f at Down Royal; progress not maintained in two subsequent outings; cheekpieces on now.

Mare has been around the houses and is now on trainer number five, but not had a pile of racing for her age; won over this trip off 70 last summer; was gambled-on second on first run of the year at Navan, where she finished well over 1m2f but couldn't peg back another one that was punted; had Genoah over 3l behind that day; big chance if she's gone the right way since.

Won off this mark at Down Royal (10.5f, good) for Henry De Bromhead in June 2025; well below best on last two starts for Adrian Nicholls and has moved yards again; likely best watched after absence unless the market speaks.

Two-time AW winner is just 1-29 on turf but she ran a good race at the Curragh (1m, good) on her penultimate start (beaten 2l, denied clear run); not as good upped to 1m2f latest but drops back in trip now and could go well off 1lb lower than she was at the Curragh.
