Has has improved significantly since blinkers were added, completing a Dundalk hat-trick (1m-1m4f) in December /January and even better form when second of 12 to Penzance over 1m2f at Lingfield five weeks ago; there's nothing wrong with that form so he's yet another who has to enter the reckoning. |

8st 6lb |
Lightly raced on AW in Ireland but he has improved significantly since blinkers were added, most recently running away with a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January (taking him to 3-3 in headgear); no issue with the longer trip (won over 1m4f on penultimate start) but a 13lb rise for last time (raised a total of 28lb for the three wins), allied to significantly stronger opposition, could leave him vulnerable; his tendency to hang sharply right won't be an asset here either. |

Gained a first win on turf over this C&D 18 days ago with a career best, rallying well under pressure and a 4lb rise looks workable; much better draw this time and has to be high on the shortlist. |

Belatedly opened her account on the AW (1m2f) in March off 52; pick of three turf runs since when close second at Leopardstown last month (1m1f, good), didn't count in similar event last time; bad draw but still respected. |

Belatedly opened her account on the AW in March off 52; bounced back from a poor run on soft ground at Navan when a close second at Leopardstown last month (1m1f, good); stayed on well to pull clear with the winner that day; raised 4lb but is a contender. |

Recorded third turf win earlier this month at Roscommon under positive ride from today's rider (1m4f, good), overcoming wide draw and having been hampered; 5lb rise takes her back to a near career-high mark so interesting to see if she can back that up. |
