Best effort a third of 16 over 24.5f here in June 2024 but was still beaten 28l; off the track since another heavy defeat at Tramore last August; hard to make a solid case for. |

Second runner for yard; starting to get the hang of things in handicaps the last twice; only beaten 12L when sixth at Kilbeggan in June (3m1f, good) and followed that with a remote third at the same track; placed here in a bumper and drop to this trip may suit; interesting. |

Consistent and progressive 7yo who made all to score by 6l at Lingfield (2m7f, good to soft) on latest outing; has fitness to prove after 137-day break but could plausibly be seen to even better effect on the forecast faster ground here. |

Better hurdler than a chaser, and her last three runs over fences do nothing to dispute that; pulled up at Roscommon on her return. |

Form of 122 in points and the form of his 2022 point win worked out nicely; not so much the two 2023 efforts and he was tailed off when making his rules debut last week at 50-1; needs to leave that run behind. |
