Has run nine times, including in five stakes races; contested the Middle Park as the stable outsider two weeks ago; could be competitive now, given his depth of experience and the drop in class.

One of three Ballydoyle runners; produced peak effort in Listed grade; bottom of this pack on the figures and record of just 1-8 reflects that he's an exposed sort now.

Naas maiden winner who hit the crossbar in a Listed race at Tipperary in July and bounced back from a lesser run in a Group 3 when a close fourth at Navan 13 days ago; return to 5f is no issue and ought to go well.

Made all to win a small-field Listed event at Tipperary last July (5f, good); two defeats afterwards came over 6f in Group 3 company; made seasonal return in a Listed race at Bath in April (5f, good) but was well beaten; makes handicap debut now and rider's 7lb claim is a help.

Progressive filly followed up 6f Fairyhouse maiden win with defeat of First Approach and Fresh Fade in 5f Listed Tipperary Stakes, making all; didn't quite get home when beaten 3.5l in Group Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot on latest; possibly better than she showed at Ascot but stiff 6f here could find her out.

Ex-Irish filly who was going beyond 6f for the first time when winning here (7.3f, soft) in June on her second stable start; 7lb higher today and on different ground, but she had 3l in hand last time and could have more to offer at this sort of trip; key player.

Excellent run on debut behind Lady Iman, True Love and Power Blue in 5f listed race at this venue (good) but has proven expensive to follow in three runs since; disappointing run when last seen in a 5f maiden at Dundalk in January (hampered at start) and a bit to prove now.

Sister to 2yo Group 3 winner Castle Star; excellent fourth on debut in a Listed race in which the subsequent Molecomb winner Lady Iman beat subsequent Group 1 winners True Love and Power Blue; failed to build on that in two Tipperary appearances; now dropped to maiden company, will be hard to beat if adapting to this surface.

Sister to 2yo Group 3 winner Castle Star; ran a fine race on debut in a Listed race in which Lady Iman, winner of three races before last Saturday's Group 2 loss at the Curragh, beat the subsequent Queen Mary winner True Love; a shade disappointing over C&D on second start, though weighted to uphold form with Gelato.
