Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 82 in March; best effort for some time when today's headgear tried in finishing never nearer fourth over C&D 17 days ago in testing conditions; 2lb lower now and Keane takes over; has to be respected. |

Best form in 2022, winning three times in a July-to-September spell, and rising to a career-high mark of 94; frustrating in recent seasons; joined Peter Fahey late last year after a claiming-race third on AW; stumbled out of the stalls over 7f at Leopardstown earlier this month, left with too much to do; capable of better. |

Very up and down this year, with his stand-out efforts at Ripon (wins over 1m2f on good/soft); down the field at Musselburgh last time but a case can be made if he reproduces this season's best form; ran fairly well here last September; not discounted. |

Stuck on a losing run but dangerously handicapped and hasn't been running badly this year; each-way claims. |

Losing run since a C&D success in 2022; encouraging sixth here last week over C&D when staying on well and on a dangerous mark but possibly more effective at 7f these days. |
