Five-time winner at the track at 5f-8f, including 4-runner minor contest last winter; out of form on turf in first half of season and last month's AW return leaves him with a fair bit to find with some of these.

Struggling on turf this season but won his last start over C&D in February and, overall, he has won five times at this venue over a variety of trips; second behind Eclairage in this last season; a return to form would come as no surprise but David Egan prefers Ipanema Queen.

Three Flat wins for this yard, including over 1m6f and 2m; unplaced in five starts on the level since winning over 10.5f on AW in late 2024, but was placed in a maiden hurdle in February; has gone to Galway the last three years, and this is most likely a prep run.

High draw is a concern; however, holds a strong chance based on Killarney maiden win in May and an emphatic recent hurdles success at Cork; form of Killarney win has been shown in a good light by runner-up Treasure Rose in winning twice and finishing fifth in a Listed race.

Carries a 7lb penalty due to his C&D victory five days ago; that win came following a good third at the Galway festival (7f, yielding) but he's not the most consistent overall, so not guaranteed to reproduce his winning form.
