J: Sean Levey

T: John Butler

Without a win since April 2024 and his best run for this stable came when fourth of 12 at Newcastle (1m, AW) in July; below that level in two starts since, including one over this C&D, and others are more likely to give their running.

J: Sean Levey

T: John Butler

Without a win since April 2024; just three runs for this yard, the standout being his fourth over 1m on the AW; wouldn't be the most solid option but has more races in him and this ground will be fine.

8yo who has been up and down this year and was soundly beaten at Longchamp (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; however, he's won two big-field handicaps this season at the Galway festival (8.5f, yielding) in July and at the Curragh (1m2f, good) last month, and this Irish challenger is not discounted.
