Useful sort returned to action with a smashing handicap win over 7f at Naas and was just as good when fourth in the Listed Gladness Stakes; best on easy ground nowadays so any rain will help his cause; big player. |

Formerly best known as a sprinter; developed into a useful competitor at 7f last season, winning here in May and posting a fine effort when 40-1 second in the Ahonoora Handicap at the Galway festival; now on his highest mark (106) since 2022 thanks to a 15lb promotion for last Sunday's emphatic Naas handicap win; only stakes win came in 2021. |

Won a 7f maiden on debut last year but was below that level after on the Flat; put up two good runs in defeat over hurdles during winter; produced a solid 7f return effort at Naas when nearest at the finish and this step-up in trip can suit. |

6f Dundalk maiden winner last April would have been closer in a Cork Listed the following month had she enjoyed a clear run; bought out of Paddy Twomey's yard for 25,000euros in November; has run twice at Dundalk; seemed to be completely unfancied when a promising third on her first try at this trip; definite chance. |
