Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition.

Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days.

Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln.

Has improved with racing; performed very well in French Classics the last twice, on latest occasion sneaking up the inside rail to justify favouritism in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly (upped to 10.5f; ground faster than the official good to soft); could well have even more to offer at this sort of distance; respected in his bid to become the third horse this decade to complete the French Derby and Eclipse double.

Has raced exclusively at the Curragh, most recently coming up well short in the Irish 2,000 Guineas behind two of today's rivals; progressive otherwise and comfortably bagged Listed honours the time before; may do better still but needs to prove he's Group 1 class and Henri Matisse is the stable's chief contender.
