French APQS winner in 2017; won 2m3f Naas maiden just over four years ago before taking second Envoi Allen in 2m4f Grade 1 runner-up at the same venue; was still in the hunt when badly hampered and fell two out in the 2020 Supreme Novices' won by Shishkin. |

11st 13lb |
Useful Flat performer, winning three times and placing on a further nine occasions from 17 turf starts; took third at Gowran in April (1m4f, soft) and went one place better when beaten a neck at Musselburgh next time (2m, good); has often been frustrating, as shown by hurdles record 1-20; second eight times. |

12st 0lb |
Record of 1-19 over timber; three-time winner on the Flat has placed in two starts in that sphere since falling over hurdles at Leopardstown in March; recent form suggests she's fit and healthy but poor strike rate over hurdles is off-putting. |

11st 3lb |
The more his mark has eased this spring and summer the better he's done over fences, culminating in last month's Stratford success (2m1f, good); chance likely rests on whether he's derived sufficient confidence from that experience to defy going back up 10lb. |

0-6 over fences; bounced back from poor performance when keeping on well to snatch never-dangerous second at Worcester (2m, good) 12 days ago but others here have more convincing profiles. |

11st 12lb |
Useful three-time winner on Flat, Group 3-placed over 1m6f in 2020; made his hurdling debut later that year; frustrating until winning a maiden at Thurles in March 2022; out of the money behind El Fabiolo in a novice event here at the end of that season; absent since a Flat run 18 months ago. |

Course winner over 3m; the last of three hurdle wins came in 2024; a good run over 3m last month but was poor since, both back here; a squeak if back in form. |

Won back-to-back handicaps in 2024, the first of them was this race off 10lb higher (good) and at Tramore off 17lb higher (2m5f, good to yielding); lost her way badly following that but there were positive signs in her 3l third of 14 over C&D last time, staying on strongly; well handicapped if backing it up. |

Has lost way since a purple patch in 2024; didn't build on okay seasonal return at Clonmel when tailed off at Tramore last time. |
