Promise in maidens for Kieran Cotter and it was a cracking effort on back of an absence when beaten a head in a Navan maiden last week; will be a big player provided he takes to first-time cheekpieces and the AW.

Promise in Curragh maidens for Kieran Cotter; good effort after an absence when beaten a head in a 6f Navan maiden early last week; disappointing short-priced favourite on AW debut here nine days later; reported "blowing hard post race"; will be hard to beat if restored to form; cheekpieces worn last time are left off.

Promise in all three starts in 6f Curragh maidens for Kieran Cotter, two last year and on latest back in March; off since and has joined a new yard; rated 73 so every chance on the figures if fit for his return.

Useful maiden form this term except for a poor run on her penultimate start; second in a C&D handicap in June, the winner was placed twice at the Galway festival; becoming frustrating but may appreciate the return to 7f after recent third in a 6f Curragh maiden.
