First reserve; nine race maiden (0-5 on turf) and hasn't shaped as though her turn was near in recent starts; did show promise at Gowran in July but very different ground here; others hold more pressing claims. |

Encouraging Gowran run (7f) over the summer but couldn't back it up over this sort of trip at Tipperary when tried hooded; stamina concerns; 2lb wrong. |

On a long losing run since gaining his sixth career win in a Limerick claimer in 2023; not beaten far in four 2025 outings; suffered interference in the early stages when well fancied at Gowran last time; potentially interesting with a top apprentice booked. |

Made the breakthrough when landing a Leopardstown 1m handicap in April (good) off 49; ran to a similar level at Cork later in the month when beaten 3l into fourth; disappointing effort over 1m1f at Leopardstown last time when beaten 12.5l, but soft ground a possible excuse; Keane back aboard now. |

Sole win came on eighth run when landing a mile handicap at this course in April (good), beating Cleopatra's Needle by 0.75l; ran to a similar level at Cork 48 days ago when beaten 3l into fourth; 7lb rise seemed to anchor him that day but another good run can be expected dropped 1lb. |
