Runner-up in this race last year (when rated 100) and similar level of form on latest when third (Aussie Girl second) in Naas Listed in July on preferred soft ground; can't rule out but yard look to have a stronger contender in Aussie Girl. |

Curragh specialist, bringing tally of course wins to ten with Listed victories at 7f and 6f this year; also finished a fine second to Power Blue in a 7f Group 2 event and similar RPR when second in last week's Group 3 Renaissance Stakes (6f, heavy); has to concede weight but greatly respected. |

Magnificent course specialist; has brought his tally of course wins to ten with Listed victories at 7f and 6f this year; also finished a fine second to Power Blue in a 7f Group 2 event; should be back in his comfort zone now after running in the Flying Five. |

9st 7lb |
Yet to fire this season, although he shaped as if in need of the run after a three-month layoff when a fading eighth of 11 in 6f Chester handicap 13 days ago; not ruled out off a falling mark. |

Not the force of old but handicapped accordingly; only seen once since February and he didn't offer a great deal; usually held up so he will need plenty of luck in running from the inside stall. |

Long time since he won on turf and isn't as good now but remains consistent; returns from three months off but he can go well fresh; down to a career-low mark but he'd have preferred plenty of rain. |

Smart handicapper whose form this season has featured a win in a 6f Fairyhouse conditions event and a C&D Listed second behind Big Gossey; faces a tough task at these weights. |

Won this race last year off 91 and back to that level of form when winning Fairyhouse conditions event and second in Listed here in June; below best, albeit not knocked about once beaten in Scurry won by Sondad following month and has been given a break since. |

Just 1-18 but in good form and was only beaten a neck over C&D last month; suspicion he wants softer ground than what he will get here though. |

Listed winner last season for Jack Davison; below best in light campaign this term until more encouraging effort on yard debut eight days ago in this headgear combination, staying on into third (well behind front two) over 5f at Navan; more needed here in a much deeper race. |

C&D winner; very useful on his day and has won at Group 3 and Listed level; below best in three runs this term and sold for 35,000gns last month; tongue tie goes on for stable debut and on a dangerous mark if that sparks a revival. |
16/1 |

9st 2lb |
Back on song when convincing winner of a 6f Listed event at Naas (yielding) last October; unable to get involved in two runs at that level in 2026 but he was badly checked back at Naas in April and in better form than the 5l defeat suggests; however, he has more to prove back on this track with good to firm ground quicker than ideal; regular cheekpieces are discarded. |
