10st 4lb |
Not the easiest to win with, as her 2-31 record over hurdles illustrates, but both wins have been over this C&D, including off this mark last summer; penultimate Wexford third was a good effort, 3m2f may have been too far last time; place claims back at optimum trip. |

Not the easiest to win with, as her 2-30 record over hurdles illustrates; both wins at Sligo over 20.5f, but did run a cracker in this last year when beaten 4.25l into second and she's 5lb lower now; yard in form and she shaped well at Wexford on latest; big chance. |

Became disappointing over hurdles after winning his maiden and has offered very little in two attempts chasing, including on Tramore comeback in late May; jumping needs improvement. |

Winner of his third hurdle start when taking a Down Royal maiden in August last year (2m4f, good); nothing since and has been tailed off in three most recent starts; fences need to spark a return to form. |

AW winner at three and dual winner over fences last year; couple of first-fence falls in March and quiet since; okay run at Navan in June; second to Stepdance over C&D last July, off this mark, and now meets her on a whopping 25lb better terms; only second time to wear blinkers. |

Five-time hurdles winner at up to 3m, most recent coming in 2m5f Fairyhouse handicap in November; two runs this year have been poor so much more needed and probably wants easier ground. |

Point winner whose best run came at Sligo in June when beaten 3.5l into third in extended 3m1f hurdle; not at same level in two subsequent outings over hurdles; back over fences now, but previous five starts in this sphere were moderate; blinkers on. |

Won a 2m2f maiden hurdle here in 2024 (good); was chasing last season and finally got a win in that sphere at Kilbeggan in April (2m4f, good to yielding) off 96 but pulled up at Wexford last time; Mickey Cohen appears to be the stable's best chance. |

One of three for trainer; off the mark when winning this race last year (good); nearly made it back-to-back C&D victories when beaten a neck on seasonal return in May (good, 11-1); up 2lb but he should come on for that run and O'Keeffe now rides for the first time. |

Locally trained; won over C&D (good) off 6lb lower when last seen in July 2025; absence since is concerning and record fresh indicates he will come on for this run. |

Modest form in seven starts but took small step in right direction at this track a year ago when beaten 17.5l into fifth off 9lb higher; tailed off over hurdles and fences since; returns after 305 days off and needs plenty more. |
