Two wins over 7f in 2023 for Andre Fabre and ran well in defeat in Group races up to 1m4f; struggled over an extended 1m2f at Naas in March on stable debut after a long absence; different proposition six weeks ago when winning a Tipperary conditions event over an extended 7f; should confirm form with third-placed Cristal Clere.

93-rated gelding won this race on seasonal return last year but it was a much weaker renewal; best form is on good ground so the forecast rain is a negative; well-beaten on easy ground when last seen; others appeal more.

Last win came in a valuable Curragh handicap last summer off 88 (1m, good); up and down runs since then; well behind a few of today's rivals last time at the Curragh (1m, good); dropped 1lb and cheekpieces now applied but others preferred.

Winner of this race last year from a mark of 88; runs since then have been up and down, close fifth in hot Leopardstown handicap in September (7f, good) but bombed out next time at this track (1m, yielding to soft); 6l fifth of seven in comeback earlier this month is something to build on.

Won a maiden here last year (6f, soft to heavy); followed that win with another success at this track off his current mark (7f, good); poor in following three runs but not a bad effort on seasonal return at Fairyhouse last time after being gelded; can improve.

Won a maiden and a handicap at the Curragh earlier in the year but had his limitations exposed since in big handicaps at Ascot and the Curragh; the ease in the ground is likely to suit but has to prove he is up to this class.

Churchill filly unbeaten in two starts; ran green when landing Naas fillies maiden over a mile in May of last year and after 13 months' absence showed good turn of foot, having had to wait for room, to win Fairyhouse rated race over this trip, going away; potentially smart type, quite likely with a lot more to offer and could well play a leading role.
