In great form earlier this season notching up back-to-back handicap wins at Cork off 75 and Gowran Park off 82; not disgraced in a Cork Group 3 (1m4f, good) on her penultimate start but well-beaten in a Listed heat at Gowran Park on latest; probably up against it in this company. |

Promising start to career in Ireland in 2023 but very lightly raced since and he struggled over hurdles and on the Flat on his three outings last year; returns from an absence and is probably best watched. |

Not a bad handicapper at around 1m1f/1m2f for Willie McCreery and fair form in three spins over hurdles, although tended to be too keen; picked up for 5,000euros in November; had a recent comeback run on the Flat. |
