Former C&D winner won at Down Royal off a mark of 109 in May; below par at Roscommon off 5lb higher subsequently and then pulled up here two weeks ago; hard to fancy after that effort and may need to drop back down the weights. |

Nicely on top over 3m2f at Down Royal (good; 5lb lower) but her jumping didn't really stand the test in Roscommon's Connacht National; each-way claims if finding greater fluency this afternoon. |

Conversion rate of just 2-27 over fences; several long absences following his last win in summer 2023, and hasn't been since a 47l last of five finishers in this race last year; best watched. |

Started off for Kerry Lee with two pretty good thirds in early part of last season, the latter over C&D on good ground, but was pulled up in refitted cheekpieces (retained) on next two outings and it's hard to know what to expect from him after a 200-day absence. |

8yo former hurdler/chaser who turned his attentions to the Flat last summer; enjoyed a solid spell in soft-ground staying handicaps in the autumn and produced a career best in this code when winning over C&D (Dreams Adozen fourth) on his reappearance in April; found the Northumberland Vase too warm when last seen two months ago but he's not discounted. |
