Best maiden run came here on debut but well beaten in three starts since and was pulled up on handicap debut at Cork in July; watch on first run for new yard. |

Shown very little in three runs so far and beaten a long way out on return from a year off last month; would need to improve plenty on handicap debut here. |

Held his form well after winning a Down Royal handicap last August (2m1f, good to firm); back from a break he appeared to get outstayed by the front two over 2m3f at Cork; better expected here. |

Super consistent form in autumn; winner of a Down Royal handicap off 90 (2m2f, good to firm) before following that with three runner-up finishes at Listowel, Punchestown, and here at 2m-2m2f; has risen in handicap for not winning; tries this trip for first time; check market now back from a break. |

In fine form; won off 10lb lower at Down Royal in August (17.5f, gd-fm) and solid efforts in defeat since at Listowel (2m2f, yielding) and Punchestown (2m, gd-yld); should be in the mix again. |

Won off 6lb lower at Bellewstown last April (20.5f, good); struggled on softer ground in opening two starts this year and good ground at Sligo brought just modest improvement when sent off 11-2 j-fav'; something to prove now. |

1-13 over hurdles, the win coming at Bellewstown (2m5f, good) last year; heavy defeat at Naas latest but may have needed that; should come on for that but may be on a tough mark (11lb above win) and wants good ground. |

Dual winner on Flat and over timber but nothing since 2021; handicapper giving him a chance and he has been running okay in recent starts; still involved at Listowel last time before making a mistake at the second last and weakening (2m2f, yielding); best form on better ground and over shorter. |
