0-6 for his previous trainer; made an immediate impact for this team with a C&D win last October; runner-up to the progressive Nikki Swango on next start; third behind Bucky Larason on final 2025 start; first-time cheekpieces; could go well after a short break. |

9st 7lb |
Has done plenty of racing since winning over this trip at Down Royal in May; sequence of creditable displays over C&D, the two most recent behind the in-form Nikki Swango; goes well for Emily Grifferty who got off the mark here earlier this month. |

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. |

Added to her two 6f wins here when taking a C&D handicap last time by a neck; up 5lb for that win, and has never won from a mark this high; should give a good account of herself all the same; declared for the 2.08 here on Wednesday. |

9st 5lb |
Maiden is 0-14 on turf; best efforts have come over 5f; beaten 0.5l off 13lb higher at Down Royal in May 2025 and comeback at Sligo (6f, yld-sft) was not devoid of promise (denied clear run); eased 2lb; not discounted if backing that up. |

Maiden's best form has been at 5f, including on seasonal debut last term when close third at Down Royal; this trip might just stretch her; blinkers swapped for cheekpieces. |

Four-time AW winner in Britain; pleasing start for this yard when staying on third at Leopardstown (7f, good) in August and excuses following month when disappointing favourite at Fairyhouse (ground, too keen and not clear run); drops in grade for AW return, Keane booked. |

First reserve; made the breakthrough in a 7f Dundalk handicap in March and followed that with runner-up finishes over the same trip back at Dundalk and on turf at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); below his best at the Curragh last time. |

Consistency not a strong suit but capable on her day and has won four times; however, she's 9lb above her last win, she lacks a recent run and might just need this. |

8st 10lb |
Donegal-trained prominent racer is modest maiden, but nearly landed a gamble over 1m at Gowran last summer and good effort on AW after; money for him on return when missed break, and jockey booking looks significant. |

Maiden after 20 starts but career-best effort was when runner-up over C&D last June, albeit on good ground; only fair efforts on AW of late; others are more likely; 2lb wrong. |

Several decent runs before she was an unplaced favourite at Cork last month; 0-8 on AW but twice in the frame here towards the end of last year; not a lost cause. |
