9st 12lb

J: Pat Cosgrave

T: Nick Scholfield

Sixth off 1lb higher in last year's 1m6f Ebor at York and third in the 2m2f Doncaster Cup; however, ended last season on a low note and pulled up in hot races for all three starts over hurdles this spring; left Willie Mullins for 15,000gns 16 days ago and blinkers (last worn in Germany in 2023) replace recent cheekpieces; which side he shows today remains to be seen.

11st 10lb

J: Sean O’Keeffe

T: W P Mullins

Classy sort on the Flat, third in last year's Doncaster Cup; 9yo has had just four runs over hurdles, winning Galway maiden last summer, but pulled up on both starts since last month's return, never featuring in Albert Bartlett and again in Grade 2 Fairyhouse novice (Generous Risk second); cheekpieces tried last time persisted with.

Classy sort on the Flat, third in last year's Doncaster Cup; 9yo has had just three runs over hurdles, winning Galway maiden last summer, most recently returned from five months' absence when pulled up after never featuring in Grade 1 Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham; cheekpieces now tried.

11st 7lb

J: Harry Cobden

T: W P Mullins

Near enough a year separated his two runs over hurdles, easily winning the latest when odds-on for a maiden at last year's Galway festival in July (good); light on experience in this scene but he's battle-hardened on the Flat and his third in September's Group 2 Doncaster Cup (2m2f; good to soft) advertises his class and stamina; it's unwise to put a line through him, for all that he's a 9yo.

J: Clifford Lee

T: W P Mullins

Fifth (hampered) and sixth (trip looked too sharp) in the last two Ebor Handicaps over 1m6f at York in August; creditable, keeping-on third in the Doncaster Cup on latest outing showed he stays this marathon distance; he needs to take his form to a new level, however, if he's to win this.
