Dual Flat winner was in good form at Dundalk last year, winning 1m4f handicap and touched off by Irish Cesarewitch winner Magellan Strait in 2m conditions race; never sighted on comeback run at the Curragh last month, more expected of here. |

Dual Flat winner was in good form at Dundalk over the winter, winning a 1m4f handicap and touched off by Irish Cesarewitch winner Magellan Strait in a 2m conditions race; off since February; each-way chance at his best but this is highly competitive. |

Is 1-25 on Flat, placed seven times; belatedly off the mark (at the 23rd attempt) in a 1m7f handicap at Leopardstown last month, down the field in two staying handicaps since then. |

Beat today's rival The Banger Doyle in a 1m6f maiden at Killarney in 2023; a long time since his last Flat outing; however, he comes here in good shape after an emphatic win in a 2m handicap hurdle at this venue in May. |

Back to form with 1.75l front-running second over C&D on penultimate off this mark; never travelled and didn't jump well when poor at Wexford last time; cheekpieces replace blinkers; could rebound back at this venue. |

Flat winner was successful over hurdles at Limerick in December 2024 off 7lb higher; moderate recent form until a change of tactics almost saw him make all at Tramore (2m1f, good to yielding) when headed late home in this headgear combination; could go one better if adopting the same tactics. |

Dual course winner last winter (including C&D); probably should have won here a fortnight ago, throwing away the race by wandering in the closing stages (beaten 1l); same mark and return to further is fine. |
