8st 11lb |
Has made the frame in four of his last six starts but now on a two-year losing sequence; beaten around 8l in fourth at Roscommon; allowance should be made for interference suffered under two furlongs down. |

Last win was over C&D two years ago; lot lower in the ratings now, with good reason, albeit made the frame in winter AW handicaps won by subsequent improvers. |

Three-time AW winner and last of two turf wins came in Roscommon handicap nearly two years ago (off 61); AW form over the winter wasn't bad so can't be ruled out. |

Both wins have been on the AW, including in March off 59; close third from a bad draw at Dundalk on Sunday, having 11 days earlier chased home Pete's Dream at Fairyhouse over this trip; has her chance again and good draw plus 5lb claimer booked. |

Defied a similarly-wide draw when winning over C&D in March; only 1lb higher now and little wrong with her turf form since. |

Added a second AW win at Dundalk in March (1m); 0-14 on turf but has run some decent runs in defeat; last two runs at Limerick and Roscommon have been satisfactory; back in 0-60 company now; on the shortlist. |

10st 4lb |
Signs of improvement in two handicap outings last October, notably when a staying-on sixth over a similar trip to this at Down Royal; half-brother to five Flat winners, including multiple Pattern scorer Tullius; should be more mature than when last seen; each-way prospect if fit. |

Soundly beaten in a trio of good ground maidens at 2m-2m1f and well held on recent handicap debut at Cork; 4yo now upped markedly in trip and potential for improvement remains. |

Winning hurdler for Noel Meade; regressive on Flat in recent years until much more encouraging run at Limerick on Saturday, coming from some way back under 7lb claimer when beaten a head/neck over 1m4f (good); Billy Lee now takes over and major claims off same mark but draw a negative. |

Has been runner-up in six of her eight hurdle starts but there was no improvement tackling a first handicap at Ballinrobe last time; needs to find a bit extra to get the job done. |

Third runner for yard; Flat maiden ran some fine races in defeat over hurdles last year but was below form last two starts; rated 106 so has a bit to find, but capable of a decent showing on return. |

Ex-Irish mare who is 0-11 under rules and has been beaten about 15l in her two handicaps; unwise to rate her subsequent placed form in maidens as improvement; cheekpieces tried last time are removed. |
