Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo won maiden here last summer on belated debut (6f, good) and much better form on seasonal return when fifth in Tipperary conditions over today's trip; back to near that form after a break (gelded) when making most in finishing third in Naas handicap last month; major player if handling the testing conditions.

Won twice on turf in Ireland and had competitive form in a handicap at this trip; latest run there in a new tongue-tie was highly respectable and he could be interesting on yard debut with Billy Loughnane booked; AW debut.

Both wins have been at the Curragh over 6f-7f and in varying ground; solid efforts all three starts this year including over 6f at this track last week; the cheekpieces worn then are replaced by a tongue-tie; needs more on these terms.

Won a conditions race on heavy ground at the Curragh (7f) last October; out of the frame in conditions race at Gowran on seasonal return (7f, soft) and again when down the field in 6f Curragh handicap latest (6f, good); not well treated by race conditions here and cheekpieces now reached for.

Form & Verdict
Maiden has run well several times in defeat at around this trip including in Group company last year and early this term in maidens; handicap form has been poor however (excuses here last month); plenty to find on ratings but don't rule out.

0-14 but has gone close at times; good run from a wide draw in a 7f Leopardstown (yielding to soft) contest, staying on well; another positive effort when third in a Limerick maiden in this headgear latest (1m, yielding); slowly away that day so effort can be marked up; not out of it.

Form & Verdict
Won first two starts for this yard here early last season, notably handicap over this trip; well held in good-class handicaps afterwards and two runs this term (having been gelded) in June were way below his best; back from a break but has run well fresh and handles testing conditions but hard to be confident in him running to this (reduced) mark.

Has come up dry since winning back-to-back races at the Curragh on first two starts for this stable in 2024; positive signs at Roscommon in cheekpieces on latest and now tries a visor for his AW debut; on a dangerous mark if taking to this surface.

Loup De Vega half-sister to winners Shartash (6f/7f inc 2yo Group 2; RPR 114), Shamiyana (French 9.5f AW; 88) and Shamsuddin (1m AW/HK; 86); dam 9.4f/1m2f winner (inc Group 2; 111); favourite, winning debut in Navan fillies maiden in early September, tiring late on after hitting the front early enough (good); least exposed of these with likely more to offer and drop back to 7f could suit; contrasting ground conditions here.

Well backed when winning a Navan fillies' maiden on her debut last September (1m, good); flopped on heavy going on her only other start last year and sold out of Dermot Weld's stable for 190,000euros in February; likely there is more in the tank and stable won this race 12 months ago (with a 3yo).
