8st 13lb |
Four-time winner over shorter trips and only just denied over 2m at Thurles on final start last season; recent hurdle run should have put him straight and not one to rule out. |

Only had two runs over hurdles, last time winning a maiden on good ground at Tramore (first-time hood); good and bad on the Flat since then; lacks jumping experience for a race of this nature. |

Beaten 5l behind a few of these at Cork last time and step back up in trip in his favour; not ruled out from the bottom of the handicap but others have more compelling claims. |

Four-time winner here including handicap over this trip on this card last year off 67; joined yard after second in C&D claimer in March but yet to run anywhere near his rating on turf, latest in Roscommon claimer; should appreciate return to AW. |

Smart at his best, once had a rating of 110; nothing like the horse he was but has found plenty of excuses not to win as well; didn't fare that well on his claimer debut last month but capable of better. |

Five of six wins have come here at distances between 1m and 1m4f; well held last twice and takes a marked drop in trip and yard seemingly have a stronger contender in The Liffey. |

8th 7 (1) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Generally reliable performer at this venue, five wins and 12 places from 36 starts; went close against Danonethatgotaway in a 1m4f handicap three weeks ago; took third place behind two higher-rated stablemates in a claimer here last Friday. |

Gained his second career win and second win at Gowran off 4lb lower on penultimate (1m, good); ran on well for fifth off revised mark in the Sovereign Path (7f, good) latest; down 1lb and the return to 1m is a plus; considered. |

Both turf wins have come at Gowran, most recently last month over 1m off 80, having previously gone close here over same trip under regular rider; 4lb rise okay but draw is a negative and soft ground a concern. |

Most recent win came in this race last year from a 1lb higher mark (1m, good); has worn a hood on his last two starts, which has resulted in a pair of seconds at 7f/1m; chance returned to the scene of his win wearing the hood. |

Six-time course winner, most effective at this trip; generally below his best since winning here last September; mild encouragement from his most recent run, but needs to reverse form with Comfort Line, Kitty Bear and Punk Poet; dropping in the ratings, now 9lb below last winning mark. |

Two of her three wins over hurdles have come at Tramore; however, she was a long way below her best in a similar race to this at that course last month; that run was prefaced by weak form at Dundalk during the winter. |

Four-time winner who last scored over 1m2f at Windsor (good to firm) off just 1lb lower in July; runner-up over C&D in October, however, and confirmed this trip holds no fears when second again at Nottingham (also good) 18 days ago; player. |

Had 1m2f wins last April (here), June and July; kept his form well, including when second in October on his only attempt at 1m6f; recent reappearance was another creditable show here and he has each-way claims. |

Generally consistent gelding who won three times last season including on his reappearance over C&D (good; 3-1) last April; still looks on a workable mark and it wouldn't be a surprise if he made a bold bid after 166 days off. |

Gained a second win over this trip at Leopardstown last season and successful over 1m since; back to form with 1l defeat at Gowran in July but couldn't build on that a fortnight ago; should be suited by the surface and Patrick Mullins is an eyecatching jockey booking; interesting contender despite not looking particularly well treated at present. |

Promising juvenile last term, winning a Naas maiden on debut before a Group 3 fourth at the end of the campaign; however, didn't show much in Dubai at the start of the year and it was a low-key return last month; enough to prove from this mark. |
