Three-time C&D winner; no further success since July 2023 turf win at Killarney; stayed on to take fourth behind Una Matata last time; down 2lb and should appreciate this trip. |

Three-time course 1m winner; no further success since July 2023 turf win at Killarney; fair form here November/December, not so good last month; 7f probably a bit sharp for him. |

Three-time C&D winner; no further success since July 2023 turf win at Killarney; two recent efforts here behind Instant Appeal were okay but may need more help from the handicapper (rider's claim a positive). |

Dual winner on soft last year when third to San Aer in this race; mostly consistent lately over various trips until dropping away tamely at Naas on latest; hard to be confident in but can't be ruled out. |

Well backed on his stable debut at Nottingham in October (8.3f, heavy) but blew the start and finished tailed off; again slowly away when third over 1m2f back at Nottingham six days later; pulled up on hurdle debut 45 days ago; risky. |

He's struggled to get competitive for three different yards this year, despite tumbling in the weights; having only his second go for Ryan Potter today and finished 44l adrift six days ago when co-favourite here (1m, heavy) on first attempt for him, albeit after a slow start; not often seen over this far; it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

Two wins were in handicaps in 2021; rated 90 at her peak, now 82 and likely to struggle; last of 14 in a 1m2f Listed race here last time; much better previously when long-priced sixth at Gowran, but held by Village Voice on that running. |

Veteran has shaped very nicely the last twice at Leopardstown (7f, yld-sft) and Roscommon (7.5f, good); close third off 3lb higher over C&D last summer; big chance with the step back up to 1m sure to suit. |

Third reserve; dual-purpose sort who has two wins on the level, his last win coming in a Galway festival premier handicap in 2023 off 82 (1m4f, good to yielding); not far behind at the Curragh in June (16.5f, good) but well beaten over hurdles the last two times and 3lb wrong. |

Lightly raced 4yo was having first run since July (gelded) when staying-on second to an improver at the Curragh last month (7f, yielding-to-soft) in first-time visor; yet to race in testing conditions but good chance he'll handle it and one to consider. |

Late-developing colt; placed at Limerick and this venue (beaten even-money favourite) before hacking up in a maiden at Listowel early last month; interesting in first handicap, though mark is not obviously lenient. |
