Came with a late run to record an eleventh career win at the Curragh recently over this trip; 3lb rise okay so expected to be thereabouts. |

A winner of seven races on AW and three on turf; last turf success was in 2022, but this season's overall form provided a fair amount of encouragement; a three-time runner-up at this venue, including in June; had plenty of horses behind him at Leopardstown ten days ago. |

9st 11lb |
Both previous turf wins have come over 1m but landed a 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; recent turf efforts leave him with a fair bit to find, but has dropped to a mark 7lb below his AW figure. |

Both previous turf wins have come over 1m but landed a 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; eased 4lb for midfield finish at Galway last time and worth checking in the market. |

9st 8lb |
Both turf wins came over 1m but proved stamina for 1m4f when scoring at Dundalk in February; nice prep run for this at Navan over 1m2f and the step back up to this trip is a plus but he's got a tricky draw to overcome. |

Over two years since his only win; good AW run in July and fair effort when eighth of 28 at the Curragh latest; Colin Keane rides him for the first time since 2022; should not be ruled out. |

A close third in a Dundalk handicap last month showed he has some potential off this basement mark; not as effective but not beaten far at Gowran since; good draw and a top 5lb claimer on board. |

Listowel win came two years ago but best effort for some time when front-running close third at Dundalk earlier this month when 7lb out of handicap; has to be considered on turf return. |

Dual 1m course winner added her eighth rules win when bagging a 1m2f Navan handicap in April; recent handicap runs here at big prices leave a bit to be desired; cheekpieces. |

Plenty of AW form and won a 1m2f Navan handicap in April on penultimate Flat run; quiet over hurdles the last twice but wouldn't read much into that. |

Showed little this year but, considering she lost two shoes in running, was not beaten far in a 1m1f handicap at Gowran two weeks ago; local stable always to be feared at this venue and market moves should be watched. |

AW winner and last of two turf wins came in May 2022 off 58; okay runs of late over 1m1f, not one to rule out with talented rider's claim and drop back to 1m to suit. |

Has won two of her last three starts; scored over 2m2f (good) at Downpatrick in July and went in again at Tramore (16.5f, good) two weeks ago despite not jumping fluently at times; should go well again off 5lb higher. |

Has been highly dependable in recent months, two wins and three places from his last five starts; beat 21 rivals (including Medieval Night) at Leopardstown last month and has a good chance of reaching the money again following a Ballinrobe third that gives him an edge over Miss Crinshawn. |
