10st 0lb |
Six-time C&D winner for John McConnell including this race in 2023 and 2024; modest efforts first two runs for this yard but is now 4lb below his last success and a big run would come as no surprise. |

9st 7lb |
Six-time winner on the AW; back from nearly a year off the track when sixth of 13 here (7f) behind a couple of today's rivals on stable debut; yard's runners highly respected at this track and he's entitled to strip fitter; wide draw. |

Seeking an 11th course success, having gained his tenth by a narrow margin over 6f here in April (fine at 5f); only 2lb higher and wouldn't read too much into a no-show at the Curragh last time. |

Almost two years since he gained the last of his six wins (four at this venue); has been slow to come down the handicap but there was encouragement from his run last time and he could be a player. |

5th 1 (14) |
3rd Feb 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Most recent of his six career wins was two years ago; slow enough to come down the handicap after some sub-standard efforts but dropped 4lb for his last effort; hard to fancy at the moment though. |

9-32 at Dundalk, but just 1-28 on turf; followed up a third-place finish at Cork (1m, good to yielding) by filling the same spot at the Curragh (7f, good), hampered before running on late; on a nice mark if putting it all together. |

Three-time AW winner, whose sole turf win came over 7f at Leopardstown; absent since November but ran well on seasonal return when third in this race last year (to Moltophino) off today's mark; 7lb claim could prove useful. |
