Better than ever last summer, winning Cork premier handicap (7f, good) and career-best second in Scurry Handicap at the Curragh; matched that effort when beaten just a neck by Headmaster in the Habitat Handicap back at the Curragh on seasonal return in May and following month fared best of those racing far side when third in repeat Cork bid; in fine form but stiff enough task conceding weight to a pair of less-exposed 3yo fillies.

J: Adam Browne-Souza

T: Maurice Andrew Ahern

Six-time AW winner in Britain; first turf success at Ballinrobe (beating Hexagonal over 9.5f, good) in May and much the best effort since on latest when strong-finishing fourth over 7f at Naas last month; trip could stretch him, but contender if seeing it out.

Won at Listowel in June; no impact off revised mark next three starts but then went close at Naas; midfield on his two most recent starts; C&D maiden winner on yielding ground a year ago; all nine races in 2025 have been over further; first-time blinkered.

Won at Listowel (6.5f, gd-yld) in June off 68; no impact off revised mark next three starts but then went close at Naas (7f, gd-yld) off 72; no apparent excuses when midfield at Fairyhouse latest; not easy to predict but has run well over C&D.

Gained a fourth career win over C&D in April (sft-hvy); 9lb higher now after a very respectable run in Listed company here earlier this month; the forecast rain will help her but she'll need a big career best to score off this mark.
