Runner-up in a Curragh maiden for Joe Murphy before beating a couple of Ballydoyle newcomers over this trip at Leopardstown in October; could well be better than what he has shown to date but handles the ground and an interesting runner.

Ballydoyle cast-off who seemed to need the run at Salisbury (1m2f) two months ago on stable/seasonal debut; gelded since and now goes in reapplied blinkers on handicap debut (runner-up in this headgear as a 2yo); may be capable of improvement.

Solid if not especially progressive 2yo form on soft/heavy; very disappointing seasonal return dropped to 6f at the Curragh last month, plenty of early speed on unfavoured far side (one of only two to race that side) before fading badly (reportedly lost left-fore shoe); now upped in trip and the No Nay Never colt races on much quicker ground but plenty of questions to answer at this stage.

Three races on heavy in Ireland, with pretty useful form last year but not so good when comprehensively turned over at 4-9 on reappearance; stepping up from 1m to 1m4f on probably good to firm ground is ringing the changes for this Galileo colt on handicap debut for top yard, which runs four.
