Six-time winner, including here as 2yo; ran well here twice last summer (runner-up in this race); out of form this term before eyecatching sixth over C&D last week after a slow start, two places behind Loingseoir; each-way possibilities. |

Overcame a troubled passage when getting up late to win a 1m2f classified at Lingfield on second start for this yard but he just couldn't pick up over the shorter trip at Wolverhampton (about 1m) next time; unraced here but acts on Tapeta and remains of interest with more suitable test. |

Built upon encouraging stable debut (over C&D) when winning 1m2f Lingfield classified in refitted cheekpieces on Monday, opening his account at the 18th attempt; has 5lb penalty on this handicap return but still needs to be taken very seriously in current mood. |

Both wins have come over 1m at Dundalk; joined this stable after a below-par run on soft ground in a Tipperary claimer in May; faded on yard debut at Dundalk; this surface should be fine for him, trip may be inadequate. |

Six-time Flat winner; well beaten on hurdling debut in Ireland in 2024 but displayed clear promise when four twice in novice company in April (2m, good), and his opening handicap hurdle mark does not look daunting. |

Six-time Flat winner including five on AW (1m-1m2f) since December; unexposed over hurdles and was fair fourth of 13 back in this sphere at Hereford (2m, good; 12-1) last week; should have more to offer as a jumper but this looks a tough task against Un Sens A La Vie. |
