Eight-time winner including four over C&D, most recently in December off 90; below best in conditions event back at 5f on latest, return to this trip and handicap ranks should suit. |

Last win was in late 2024, but was second over 7f at last year's Galway festival and some good AW runs over the winter; has much lower mark on turf. |

9st 9lb |
Without a win since landing two in a row on the Dundalk Polytrack (6f/7f) in late 2024, and below par there in February last time; however, he's produced some positive performances this winter and has edged back down the weights; might not be far away. |

Four-time Dundalk winner, most recently over 7f in December 2024 off 94; creditable runs over same trip this winter but below best in first-time cheekpieces in valuable Newcastle handicap on latest; remains high enough in the weights but possibly the pick of the yard's trio of runners. |

Seeking an 11th course success, having gained his tenth by a narrow margin over 6f here in April (fine at 5f); only 2lb higher and wouldn't read too much into a no-show at the Curragh last time. |

Admirably durable veteran stuck to his task well when recording his 12th AW win last month; 1-27 record on turf strikes a strong cautionary note; 0-6 at this venue in his 87-race career. |

Prolific winner at Dundalk, most recently a 7f handicap in January off 4lb lower; respectable efforts twice since but she'll do well to better last year's third in this race. |

9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap (good) on this card in 2024 and he's just 1lb higher now; solid effort over 1m at Bellewstown latest (soft); should get a strong pace to aim at here and not discounted. |

Four-time AW winner is 1-19 on turf; is 2lb below that last turf win which came at Naas (5f, good) in May 2024; handles an ease but this trip may just stretch his stamina. |

Durable sort; gained the most recent of his nine wins at Naas a year ago before good third at the Curragh; absent since July and looks to have a bit to find with some of these. |

Can be a threat when he gets his own way up front as seen at Naas last month and gave it another good go over extended 6f here behind Saturn Seven 24 days ago; up 2lb but there's not a lot of pace in this and he's one for the shortlist. |

Well-backed when landing a third win here (all at 6f) in January; nearly 3l off stablemate The Liffey in 6f claimer two starts back, most recent handicap run was okay; rare foray over 7f here and could be vulnerable. |
