Soundly beaten behind Dark Thirty and others at York (6f, good) last time but his high draw proved to be a negative; won at Leicester (6f, good to firm) two starts ago and he could bounce back today and be involved. |

Reappeared with close third at Newcastle (6f, AW) last month then snapped a losing run when winning at Leicester (6f, good to firm); there's still mileage in his mark judged on old form (including two C&D wins); chance. |

On lengthy losing but he's a smart handicapper on his day and he returned from five months off with a good third at Newcastle (6f, AW) two weeks ago; should benefit from that run and he remains well treated on his second in the Stewards' Cup last August; interesting contender. |

Nicely progressive of late on easy ground, touched off in Scurry Handicap here before gaining black-type placings at Naas (twice) and last month finished a close fourth in well-contested Ayr fillies' Listed; trip/ground to suit and major player although draw may not be ideal. |

Progressive handicapper, winning premier event at the Curragh before second in Scurry Handicap there; better again when second to Clounmacon in C&D fillies Listed last month, showing plenty of speed; going the right way but more likely needed here to play a major role. |

Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 82 in March; best effort for some time when today's headgear tried in finishing never nearer fourth over C&D 17 days ago in testing conditions; 2lb lower now and Keane takes over; has to be respected. |

One of three for yard; five-time winner, the most recent over C&D (yielding) in October 2024 off 4lb higher; shaped as though in need of the run last time at the Curragh and should be much sharper now; interesting. |

One of three for yard; five-time winner including three 6f victories at this venue; on losing run since winning at Naas in October 2024 (6f, yielding); no joy last season but did run well in defeat at times and returns 3lb below his last winning mark; record fresh suggests he might need this. |

Three-time winner on turf at 6f-6.5f with all three victories coming on soft or heavy ground; has gone well on good ground, however, including when beaten a neck in this race last year off 11lb higher; below best latest but may have needed that and he could go well at a price. |

Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition. |

Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days. |

Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln. |

Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap (good) on this card in 2024 and he's just 1lb higher now; solid effort over 1m at Bellewstown latest (soft); should get a strong pace to aim at here and not discounted. |
