Form & Verdict
Curragh maiden winner last year over this trip was beaten 3l in a valuable fillies' handicap over 1m on reappearance; the drop back to this trip should suit but she has a bit to find on these terms.

T: Joseph Patrick O’Brien

Curragh maiden winner; raced freely and didn't see out the 1m on her handicap debut there (good) but dropped back to 7f at Fairyhouse on Friday evening she quite readily accounted for higher-rated opposition in a non-handicap; Hugh Horgan rides again and would command utmost respect if turned out again with a penalty.

5 yo Gelding

OR: 101

Form & Verdict
Hasn't won since a 2yo but has faced some stiff tasks and run well since, including in Group and Listed company; similar efforts both starts this term and didn't get the cleanest of runs in a Naas Listed last time; solid sort has race-fitness on his side.

Form & Verdict
Nine-time winner, including twice in Group 3 company; the second of those coming at Leopardstown in May 2022; however, has been absent since a bit below his best in a Curragh Listed race almost a year ago; the one to beat if at his best; the market can help.
