10st 0lb |
Both wins have been at the Curragh over 6f-7f and in varying ground; solid efforts all three starts this year including over 6f at this track last week; the cheekpieces worn then are replaced by a tongue-tie; needs more on these terms. |

Won a conditions race on heavy ground at the Curragh (7f) last October; out of the frame in conditions race at Gowran on seasonal return (7f, soft) and again when down the field in 6f Curragh handicap latest (6f, good); not well treated by race conditions here and cheekpieces now reached for. |

Both wins have come here, notably minor conditions event (7f, heavy) last November; first run since when fourth of 5 in good-class Gowran conditions event last month; yard going well but 6f on decent ground may prove on the lively side. |

Won at Listowel in June; no impact off revised mark next three starts but then went close at Naas; midfield on his two most recent starts; C&D maiden winner on yielding ground a year ago; all nine races in 2025 have been over further; first-time blinkered. |

Won at Listowel (6.5f, gd-yld) in June off 68; no impact off revised mark next three starts but then went close at Naas (7f, gd-yld) off 72; no apparent excuses when midfield at Fairyhouse latest; not easy to predict but has run well over C&D. |

Maiden ran well on a couple of occasions last season but very little encouragement to take from two starts this year; tongue tie and cheekpieces need to transform. |

10st 0lb |
All four wins have been between 6f-8.5f on AW; has been below his best at York on last two starts and was reported to have run flat last time; drops back to a more suitable trip but he's still 4lb higher than for his last success; may be best watched until he returns to AW. |

Thoroughly exposed 5yo who was in fair form until here last time when never involved from off the pace; has never won off this high a mark but what does bode well is that his last three wins have come in amateur races under Henry Callan who is back aboard for the first time since his last win in April; the cheekpieces also return after going in a new hood last time. |

1-13 with the win coming at Cork in September (6f, yielding) off 60; some positive placed efforts this term at Navan (6f, heavy), Listowel (7f, good) and most recently at Fairyhouse (6f, good); latest run can be marked up because slowly away and was waiting for a gap in the straight; in the mix. |

Finished first past the post on debut at Navan (extended 5f, soft) in 2023 but demoted for interference; unable to replicate the form in three subsequent sprint maidens but the market should be helpful now back from a layoff on handicap debut for new yard. |
