Form & Verdict
Won a Naas maiden last year over this trip before a much-improved effort in first-time cheekpieces when runner-up in a Group 3 at Leopardstown; too bad to be true when beaten 22l by Samuel Colt on return at Leopardstown but obvious questions to answer now.

T: A Oliver

Top rated in here at 107; running well in higher grades on his last few starts; his last try in Listed company resulted in victory at the Curragh (1m, soft); was only beaten 3.5l in a Group 2 on latest and he has to hold big claims here if handling the surface on AW debut.

Apparently misbehaved n debut here last year and gelded after; much-improved when winning a Leopardstown 1m maiden on return; better again when winning a 7f Gowran conditions race since; further improvement likely and can run well.

Was an easy winner of a 6f maiden at this track at the end of last season; much-improved effort when runner-up to a stablemate in a Group 3 at Leopardstown over 7f on return; handles heavy ground and looks the one to beat with further improvement likely.

Useful ex-Irish winner but he's offered little in a handful of runs for his current yard, beating just two in 1m Newbury handicap on his recent return; others are much preferred.

Very lightly raced 5yo; Group-placed in 2024 for Aidan O'Brien; has failed to beat a rival in three runs for current stable, always behind after stumbling early on at Sandown (behind Urban Lion) last June; hard to recommend on recent form but he has been dropped a chunk in the weights and gelded, and he now reappears in a hood.

Placed in Group 3/Listed races last year for Edward O'Grady and bolted up in handicap at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last month on second start for this yard; unable to reproduce that form in Listed race at Royal Ascot but maybe didn't handle the fast ground; could go well if conditions suit.

Placed at Group 3 and Listed level last year; recorded a really smart handicap performance when making his second start for Richard Fahey a winning one on reappearance at the recent Epsom Derby meeting (1m2f, good to soft), pulling 4l clear; a fairly quick turnaround is a slight worry after such a big effort but he's bang there on form; has raced only on going softer than good.
