9st 2lb

J: Donagh O’Connor

T: Padraig Roche

No win since March last year; a couple of respectable efforts this year and has been dropped 5lb since finishing fourth in a 6f Navan handicap last month; would prefer more of an ease, but interesting to see how she gets on here.

9st 9lb

J: Reese Holohan

T: Padraig Roche

Both wins have come at the Curragh and all four runs this term have been at same track, notably fine fourth of 22 in premier handicap in May; 2lb wrong and raced on unfavoured far side in Scurry Handicap latest; rider's 7lb claim a positive so don't rule out.

8st 7lb

J: Leigh Roche

T: Padraig Roche

Both wins have come at this track but over 6f/7f; this season's form linked to Genesis and Headmaster puts her in the mix, although several others would seem to have marginally stronger claims.

8st 10lb

J: Leigh Roche

T: Padraig Roche

Both wins have come at this track but over 6f/7f; good fourth over 6f here on latest; had an excuse on her previous start, she was reported coming in season; cheekpieces for the first time, may find a few of these rivals too quick.

J: Leigh Roche

T: Padraig Roche

Both wins have been at this track, including early last season over this trip (soft) and better form when third to Go Athletico in Scurry from out of handicap; reportedly coming into season when disappointing joint-favourite on C&D seasonal return in March, more expected of now.
