Form & Verdict
Ran well in some hot handicaps last year, most recently fourth of 24 in the Irish Cambridgeshire over C&D last August (1m, good; won that race in 2023), keeping on well and briefly short of room; might need the run but versatile ground-wise; contender.

Veteran's last win came over C&D in the Irish Cambridgeshire in August 2023; didn't get the clearest of runs when a 2.75l fifth in this last year and 11lb lower now; not beaten far the last twice, fast ground is fine and he's an interesting runner.

Strike-rate of 3-63 but has been running well and latest third at the Curragh (1m, good to firm) warrants an upgrade; has form on all surfaces.

J: Colin Keane

One of two for trainer; all three wins have come here, including one over C&D; 8lb below his last winning mark from 2024; good placed form on good ground over 1m here in June and at Killarney and Gowran last month; yielding to soft ground a possible excuse when disappointing at Galway last time; he could have a big run in him with Keane aboard for the first time.

Form & Verdict
Lightly raced 4yo has won 3-4 handicaps all over 7f; followed up AW success on handicap debut with Leopardstown win (good); scoped badly in hat-trick bid; another winning return when sent off favourite at Leopardstown last month, pushed out to win cosily; 2lb wrong but good chance up in trip.

All three wins have been at 7f, including at Leopardstown in April; safely held since (excuses last time when favourite) but handicapper has relented and now 2lb below winning mark; interesting.

Record of 3-9; might be high in the weights but this is a drop in class from two valuable handicaps at the Curragh and Jack Cleary takes off 5lb; possible.

3-4 in 7f handicaps; winner at Leopardstown off 72 on seasonal return (7f, good); carried head awkwardly and hung from 1f out when upped in trip at this track last time; she could play a role now returned to 7f.
