8st 9lb |
Has has improved significantly since blinkers were added, completing a Dundalk hat-trick (1m-1m4f) in December /January and even better form when second of 12 to Penzance over 1m2f at Lingfield five weeks ago; there's nothing wrong with that form so he's yet another who has to enter the reckoning. |

1st Mar 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Lightly raced on AW in Ireland but he has improved significantly since blinkers were added, most recently running away with a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January (taking him to 3-3 in headgear); no issue with the longer trip (won over 1m4f on penultimate start) but a 13lb rise for last time (raised a total of 28lb for the three wins), allied to significantly stronger opposition, could leave him vulnerable; his tendency to hang sharply right won't be an asset here either. |

8st 8lb |
Ordinary form since joining this stable from Adrian Keatley for whom he won two handicaps on quick ground, back-to-back in April 2022; rated 72 at this peak, now down to 48; hard to be confident, but perhaps unwise to write him off. |

Dual winner over 7f last year; returned to form when chasing home Ferrybank here last time; chance if reproducing that but might need luck in running from his draw. |

Placed at Dundalk on her penultimate start; now back on the mark off which she won over 1m4f at Roscommon in May; has won over this trip but probably more effective over further these days. |

9st 10lb |
Busy as ever this year, winning over 1m here and at the Curragh (beat Avec Grand Plaisir); a bit below par at Fairyhouse last time; not tried very often over this trip but does stay; shouldn't be far away. |

11-time winner approaching the veteran stage; has kept his form very well this year, gaining a deserved win at the Curragh and running well twice since; goes well for this claimer and every chance that he will be on the premises once more. |

Has held his form well in recent months; two wins in 2026 have brought his career tally to 11; backed up a narrow Curragh success (Sherekiya, third) with another solid display in taking third at Navan 13 days ago; has won and twice finished second for 10lb claimer Cillian Rowan. |

Maiden after eight starts; absent since a below-par run in claimer at Ballinrobe last June; coped well with this surface in two runs here at the end of her juvenile career, third in a maiden on the first occasion, resulting in an initial handicap mark of 81; now down to 66, should not be ruled out |

Irish raider; well down the field after starting slowly on turf in July but won 5f classified here on latest British start in March, despite racing too freely, and is also suited by 6f; big player if all goes to plan. |

Two-time AW winner is yet to score on turf (0-6); not disgraced over C&D (good) on latest and eased 5lb for that 4.25l defeat but more needed to gain first win on the grass. |
