Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition.

Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days.

Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln.

All three wins have come at 1m; back after a spell in the Emirates; not far off best when touched off by Elnajmm in the 7f Group 2 Al Fahidi Fort in January; beaten 3l in fourth behind the same horse in a Group 3 last time; blinkered first time now; not appealing at this trip.

Career-best when winning C&D Listed Amethyst Stakes in May (good), coming from well off pace; similar tactics employed in Group Desmond Stakes over C&D last month but left with too much to do when strong-finishing 1l third to front-running Johan; likely stronger pace here should suit but this looks a deeper race.
