8st 9lb

J: Gavin Ryan

T: James M Barcoe

Three turf wins include one over C&D (yielding) off 5lb lower; sole win last year at Cork (5f, gd-yld) and was beaten just 0.5l off the same mark at Naas on latest (5f, good); raised 3lb for that and this is a deeper race.

J: Dylan Browne McMonagle

T: James M Barcoe

3-23, the last win coming off this mark at Cork last June (5f, gd-yld); low key start to this campaign and three previous runs here have not been his best; rider booking a positive.

Three wins including over C&D; well beaten in soft ground on Curragh return but this surface will suit better; inexperienced rider.

J: E E Ryan

T: James M Barcoe

Gained all three wins over the minimum trip, including here in June last year (good to yielding) off 63; ran well at Navan twice towards the end of last year but interspersed with two moderate starts at this venue; this will be just the third ride of his rider's career under rules'.

J: Wayne Hassett

T: James M Barcoe

Has gained all three wins over the minimum trip, including at Cork this summer; mixed form of late but definite claims on two Navan runs, latest last month when strong-finishing fourth on soft; 2lb wrong but leading claimer takes off 3lb.
