Dual 5f winner (AW and turf), most recently at Cork in May on soft; struggled off revised mark in four subsequent runs; only of interest if the market speaks in his favour. |

Only 1-30 but running well lately and less than a length behind Steel Magnolia at Navan; was taken out because of soft ground earlier this season, and the surface has to be a concern. |

9st 2lb |
Inconsistent gelding who's been around a bit and twice been tried over 7f this year (win in the summer came from the front over 6f); made an ordinary debut for this yard recently and will need plenty to fall right from an outside stall. |

Prospered after joining this yard, three wins over 5f from six starts at Dundalk; progress stalled when tried over 6f in February and finished last of ten, too bad to be true; much more like it when returning from a break to finish fourth over 5f at the Curragh last month. |
