Five AW wins and two turf wins have been at Navan over 5f; last year's highlight was fine third in Rockingham here; absent since October and may just need this. |

5-13 on AW including this race in 2021; respectable effort when fourth in the Group 2 Sapphire Stakes at the Curragh in July (5f, good); a neck behind Black Forza when fourth over C&D latest (4lb better off now); needs more stepped back up in grade. |

Five-time course winner including a C&D Group 3; beaten 3.25l off 99 on last AW start in July; decent runs in defeat since including a 3.25l fourth in the Sapphire Stakes; a bit to find on the figures but should run a solid race. |

8st 6lb |
He did well after joining this yard last year and he's on a handy mark; he should get back on track sooner or later but this 10yo has failed to shine on his last three outings, over C&D on last two starts. |

Veteran whose form has dipped in last two outings, latest over C&D eight days ago; doesn't look as if he's about to improve his poor strike-rate (long time between drinks). |

Good turf spell in the autumn included a winning yard debut at Haydock (good) and a close second over C&D (soft); has run well on AW since but looks to have his share of weight; trainer runs five and won this in 2024. |

Just a Cork maiden win last year to his tally, but has performed with credit this season; excellent second in the 25-runner Bold Lad last month (splitting My Mate Alfie and Tango Flare); improved again when third behind My Mate Alfie and Big Gossey last time; has a 7lb turnaround with the year-younger winner. |

Eight wins including once over C&D; some fine runs in defeat since winning at Naas on return this term; probably found the ground a bit quick at Leopardstown last time; is better here too but rain would help. |

Fine stalwart has won eight races, including seasonal return at Naas in March (7f, soft-to-heavy); below best of late but reduced mark now and soft ground so could improve on recent form. |
