9st 1lb |
Five wins, two of them on turf, including 25-1 success over extended 1m6f at Bellewstown earlier this month; needed every yard that day, and his previous win was over 2m; got an 8lb rise, which is likely to prevent a follow-up; placed once in seven previous runs here. |

9st 5lb |
Four wins on the Flat but hasn't won on turf since June 2024; 4lb below that last success but recent form hasn't indicated that a return to winning ways is imminent; others preferred. |

Sole win on turf came at Fairyhouse in June 2024 (1m4f, good); latest of three AW wins came at Dundalk in November over 2m; two turf runs this term were poor and most recent Dundalk outing was not his best either. |

9st 11lb |
Curragh handicap winner a year ago for Gerry Keane; struggled under a penalty after that and best run since was in a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January; back to a competitive mark now but hard to be even close to confident about her. |
20/1 |

8th 2 (6) |
10th Feb 2023 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Sole win in 18 starts came on turf; running okay in defeat this winter and 6f shorter than ideal latest but needs to prove she stays 1m. |

Sole win came over 7f at the Curragh last May; some decent efforts in defeat over 7f and 1m here on last number of starts; has form over sprint trips, so should have the pace to be competitive. |

Six-time winner and winner of two handicaps at this track last year; 12lb below last winning mark; poor runs here in the spring and never featured in three turf starts this year; others appeal more. |
