Former top-class juvenile, six-time winner, four at this track, including the 2023 Phoenix Stakes and this race last year; finished behind Big Gossey and James Delight when fourth in the Greenlands here in May; failed to make much impact over 5f here last time; capable of a big run on his day.

Looked set for a big season after his Listed win at Cork but it hasn't materialised; upset in stalls when soundly beaten again upped to 6f at Naas latest; however, he has C&D form figures of 132, including a head second in this last year, so the return to this venue offers hope of a revival.

Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit.

One of three for stable; yet to win for this yard but has run well in defeat; best effort a head second in a 7f Listed at Cork in August (7f, good); not as good dropped to 6f last twice and now drops in trip again; has won on AW but McMonagle prefers stablemate.

Showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) for 50-1 win in Listed race at Ayr (5f, good) in June; needs to prove that level of form was no one-off and she was down the field in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good to firm) last time, but she's not written off back in a handicap.

Clear promise as a 2yo and she didn't need to improve to win a Cork maiden on reappearance (5f, good) in April; took a big step forward with 50-1 success in Listed event at Ayr two weeks ago (5f, good; cheekpieces on for the first time); has to prove that wasn't a flash in the pan.
