Good form last season, winning C&D premier handicap (good) and second in the Scurry Handicap at the Curragh; matched that effort when beaten a neck in the same venue's Habitat Handicap on seasonal return in May; solid third over C&D before losing out to Suzie Songs in a three-runner Naas contest; has never run in a stakes race, worth a shot.

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.

T: Maurice Andrew Ahern

Six-time AW winner in Britain; first turf success at Ballinrobe (9.5f, good) in May, quickening well to score by 2.5l; not in the same form the last twice and drop in trip needs to spark a bounce-back.

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.

Career-best on latest to land a nice pot at the Curragh (6f, sft-hvy) under this rider, her fourth win; ground-versatile but she'll need to improve again to follow up off a career-high mark of 90.
