One of three for yard; Flat winner (two on soft-heavy) is 0-8 over timber but he ran better on yielding ground at Killarney last time when a warm order but relegated to third place late on (no chance with winner); can build on that effort. |

Three-time turf winner who appreciates an ease in the ground; 3lb above his last success in September at Roscommon (7.5f, soft); positive return to turf at Bellewstown (1m, soft) two weeks ago when fourth of 14 following a poor effort at Dundalk prior; no surprise to see him feature. |

Four-time winner (one at this venue); very comfortable winner of a Roscommon handicap in September off 59 (7.5f, soft); not at the same level off higher mark since; weakened into tenth over 10.5f here latest; this trip looks more suitable but has never won from a mark this high. |

Bagged eighth career win at Roscommon in May (1m4f, good); back down to winning mark when a neck second back at that track on his penultimate run; underwhelming at Galway most recently when well behind (1m4f, soft); three of his wins have come at this distance but he may not appreciate the ground. |

Made light work of a 6lb rise for her 2m6f Downpatrick (good) win when following up at Down Royal (3m, gd-fm); raised another 7lb for that 2.5l success; can go well again, though wouldn't want it too soft. |

Interesting on the pick of her form at Dundalk, including a good third there in November (1m2f); less good twice since but new combination of accessories could help and this will be less competitive than she is used to. |
