Both career wins (from 25 races) have come on Dundalk AW, but he finished on the heels of winner Spirit Mixer in this race last year (good to soft) and was also bang there in the Chester Plate this May; backward steps on last two outings but he's not ruled out.

Both career wins have come here, the latest in this race last year off 1lb higher; has run well in defeat over much further on turf a couple of times this term and soft ground wouldn't have suited at Galway latest; should be doing his best work at the finish.

Quite a promising debut here two weeks ago, staying on well in a 1m2f maiden, beaten less than three lengths (Tribal Star third, Dahab fourth); plenty of scope for improvement and has a chance of reversing that form.

Her seven starts under rules make her one of the most experienced of the contenders; she finished a 25l fifth of eight on her debut for her current stable last time out at Tramore; prior to that she was running on the Flat to little effect; more improvement needed.
