Just 2-22 but has taken the runner-up spot nine times; won on heavy at Leopardstown in October off 5lb lower; decent enough return at Cork (7f, soft) when a 6l sixth; Vega's Muse appears to be stable number one. |

9st 12lb |
Most recent of her six wins gained at Laytown last September; began the new campaign with a neck second over 7f at Dundalk; has failed to reproduce that form in two subsequent appearances and is now dropped in trip; placed only once from nine Navan runs. |

9st 13lb |
Most recent of her six wins gained at Laytown last September; 1-17 at this venue; given plenty to do finishing strongly for neck second last month, with Alex Belardo 2l back in fourth; that rival turned the tables on her two weeks ago. |

Is 0-7; has run okay on his last two starts in a maiden at Laytown (7f) and in a maiden claimer at Bellewstown (1m, yielding to soft), weak; well-beaten in sole completed handicap off 71 in August; 6lb lower now but still doesn't look that well-treated and not sure he stays this far; others preferred. |

Dual Dundalk winner at 1m; left Ireland out of form (changed hands for 6,000gns) and he was tailed off at big odds for stable debut at Southwell. |

Won twice at Dundalk (1m, AW) last winter but he was out of sorts in final five runs in Ireland; left David Marnane for 6,000gns last September; has plenty to prove on return for new yard and he's untried on Tapeta; stablemate of Tribal Wisdom. |
