Form & Verdict
Four-time C&D winner, the latest coming in November 2023 off 58; went close off 56 over C&D in February then had a run over hurdles at Leopardstown; below-par here on latest three weeks ago but is the type to bounce back; can't be discounted.

Form & Verdict
Two-time course winner at 6f, including a first handicap win on latest when making all to score by 0.5l at 50-1; up 4lb for that and steps up to 7f, a trip that probably stretches his stamina; others make more appeal.

Form & Verdict
One of three for yard; gained second 1m course win on latest off 50 for this jockey and has been hiked up 6lb; his 7f form isn't as good so the drop back in trip has to be viewed as a negative; others appeal more at this trip.

Off the mark at the 13th attempt when landing a handicap over this trip at Naas in August; down the field at the Curragh twice since then; Naas form often works out well at this similar track, and she ran well when fifth of 19 over C&D in the spring.

3yo filly finally got off the mark when holding off a late surge from Van Krolock at Naas (6f, good) 12 days ago; up 7lb and moves up in grade; will need a big career best to uphold Naas form with the runner up but that's not impossible.

Form & Verdict
Veteran has won six times on the AW, including three over this C&D; last won in December 2023 off 48 and he runs off that mark here; however, he has been off the track since July 2024 and he's entitled to need this run.
