8st 11lb |
One of his three wins came over C&D and has often run well in defeat here, too; second to well-treated types at Galway and Dundalk in later months of last year; well supported into 10-3 when third to Kitty Bear at Gowran last month. |

8st 10lb |
Three-time turf winner and often placed but 0-22 on AW and placed only three times; hard to make a strong case on recent AW form; however, he is so much more effective on turf that a good showing is not out of the question. |

Front-runner; second on handicap debut at Ayr (2m4f, soft) in February and she's been a fair fifth in double-figure fields at Down Royal (2m4f, good) and Ayr (2m4f, good to soft) the next twice; it was a 0-120 last time and she's tackling a 0-100 today; could be involved back down in grade. |

10st 7lb |
Remains a maiden after 17 starts but just five of those have been over hurdles and she ran well from the front on her handicap debut in this code when second over C&D (soft) in February; fair fifth of 19 at Down Royal (2m4f, good) since when inconvenienced by jumping to the left, and she could play a leading role now back at a left-handed track. |
