Ordinary form last year; now back below the mark off which he won at Kilbeggan in 2024; pulled up at Limerick on final run before a break; new headgear combination now. |

Bagged his second hurdles win at Kilbeggan last year off 93 (2m3f, yielding); made satisfactory return to action back at Kilbeggan in June when a distant third (2m4f, good) but never involved there the following month (2m3f, good to yielding); capable on his best day. |

Fourth in this last year before winning handicaps at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) and Down Royal (3m, good to firm); pulled up on seasonal return at Clonmel in June (2m7f, good) but much more promising was her 8l third of 18 at Limerick last time (2m7f, good), despite making a bad mistake; interesting. |

One of three for trainer; off the mark when winning this race last year (good); nearly made it back-to-back C&D victories when beaten a neck on seasonal return in May (good, 11-1); up 2lb but he should come on for that run and O'Keeffe now rides for the first time. |

Belatedly off the mark last month in 3m1f Roscommon handicap chase (good) in first-time tongue-tie, her first attempt at the trip; has to be of interest back hurdling at the same distance, though tongue-tie left off today. |

Back-to-back winner at Bellewstown (2m1f, yielding) and Down Royal (2m2f, good) in April/May; decent C&D effort on penultimate when a clear runner-up off this mark; pulled up here last time though, so hard to know what to expect now. |

Ex-Irish gelding who's looked high enough in the weights since returned to hurdles for his current yard; well held off a 3lb higher mark at Sedgefield last time and needs to improve on that, albeit he's been found a weak-looking race. |
