10st 2lb |
Gained a first win on turf over this C&D 18 days ago with a career best, rallying well under pressure and a 4lb rise looks workable; much better draw this time and has to be high on the shortlist. |

Belatedly opened her account on the AW (1m2f) in March off 52; pick of three turf runs since when close second at Leopardstown last month (1m1f, good), didn't count in similar event last time; bad draw but still respected. |

Belatedly opened her account on the AW in March off 52; bounced back from a poor run on soft ground at Navan when a close second at Leopardstown last month (1m1f, good); stayed on well to pull clear with the winner that day; raised 4lb but is a contender. |

Dual-purpose performer who is not easy to predict but he returned to the Flat with an eyecatching third over C&D (hood reapplied) on recent stable debut; could be dangerous if he can back that up and he's in the mix. |
