Gained the sixth win of his career at Roscommon this time last year; 7lb lower now, but this season's form offers limited hope. |

Six-time winner, including here as 2yo; ran well here twice last summer (runner-up in this race); out of form this term before eyecatching sixth over C&D last week after a slow start, two places behind Loingseoir; each-way possibilities. |

Dual winner and today's trip/ground is fine; nearly got up from off the pace last time at Tipperary (7.5f, good to firm) and possibilities despite her career-high mark. |

Wins in his turn, albeit five of his six victories have been on AW; below par at Ayr last time, but solid runs in 6f turf handicaps earlier in the summer; this is start number 16 of the year. |

The bulk of his winning has been done on AW but he did win a 5f handicap at the Curragh last August; recent efforts need bettering but he would seem likely to give his running. |

6-46 on turf; losing run stretches back to October 2024; poor form on AW last winter; shaped reasonably well at Listowel on first run for this stable; ran to roughly the same standard at Limerick; stablemate She's On The Ball is more appealing. |

Won twice last season for his former yard on soft-heavy so was disappointing he didn't show more back on his favoured ground latest; dropped 5lb for that effort; new blinkers need to revive. |

Back-to-back wins in 2024 including over C&D on soft; well beaten both 2025 starts but is now 3lb below last winning mark and the rain has come so can't be ruled out. |

Course winner; has been busy this year; fit from AW when winning at the Curragh (1m, heavy) in March; has largely remained in good form since, given a forceful ride at Roscommon (10.5f) on latest when finishing second; can go well dropped 1lb. |

Has been busy this year and was fit from AW when winning over 1m at the Curragh in March; touched off on her return there before disappointing when favourite at Gowran; has made the running on her two most recent starts; may find a few too good again. |

C&D winner in October but the ground was heavy then and she does prefer give underfoot; no better than seventh this season (good/yielding) and there will be other days for her. |

Durable mare enjoyed a fine summer in 2024, compiling form figures of 2311 before a below par ninth of 16 on final start at Galway; best suited by soft/heavy; should be better for last month's reappearance at Fairyhouse. |

One of two for trainer; three-time winner here, the latest over C&D in December off 48; didn't get the best of runs when unplaced here in February (5f) and raced wide when weakened into ninth of 11 last time (6f); can do better. |
