Behind Buddy Batt and Lethimfly here in March but later posted a career-best RPR when winning over 6f back here in April and can be forgiven his subsequent defeat at Chester; hard to leave out of calculations. |

Fully exposed 5yo but he recorded the best RPR of his 50-race career when winning at Dundalk last month (6f); while effective on turf, he looks high enough in the weights now returning to grass; well drawn but others appeal more for win purposes. |

Clicked last summer with a Fairyhouse hat-trick over 6f on nice ground; touched off at Naas two starts back and couldn't get in the clear until too late when beaten just over 2l in premier handicap at the Curragh last weekend. |

All three wins at Fairyhouse last season came at this trip on decent ground; back to form on favoured ground at Leopardstown early this month when beaten a short-head in three-way photo; 3lb rise takes him back to a career-high mark but capable 7lb claimer booked. |

Six-time AW winner on a good mark and was close up behind Clonmacash on his last visit here, since when he's finished ninth at Naas; like others in here, this place is more his scene. |

Six-time AW winner is 3-33 on turf; hasn't won on grass since a 6f success at Cork (good) in June 2023; went close at Dundalk on latest (6f) and has gone well over this C&D before; place shout. |

Sole win in June 2023; in good form on the AW off this mark recently, beaten less than 1l the last twice; best turf form on fast ground and on a dangerous mark based on a 2l second at Windsor off 7lb higher last June; could go well. |

Yet to add to his 6f 2yo win on AW in Britain for Brian Meehan; solid level of form here of late, most recently staying on for second behind all-the-way winner Sporting Hero over this trip last month from a wide draw; 4lb better off with rival here, major chance. |

Back to form when recording a tenth win under rules' at Dundalk last month (7f); 6f perhaps a bit sharp back at Dundalk last time and was hampered turning in; she was a C&D winner last June off 5lb higher, so a few things in her favour back on turf. |

Well-backed when landing a third win here (all at 6f) in January; nearly 3l off stablemate The Liffey in 6f claimer two starts back, most recent handicap run was okay; rare foray over 7f here and could be vulnerable. |

Six-time AW winner remains a maiden on turf (0-22); has placed over C&D (good) off 3lb higher and shaped better than the bare result at the Curragh latest so not dismissed from an each-way perspective. |

Six-time winner over this trip on AW; still seeking turf breakthrough after 21 attempts; potentially well handicapped based on his victory at Dundalk in March, achieved at the main expense of today's rivals Reposado and Masked Angel; 11lb better off with Reposado. |

Prolific AW performer gained a first turf success in emphatic fashion at Navan on latest (5f, gd-yld) under this rider, making virtually all for a 2.25l win; this longer trip fine but raised 10lb and this is a tougher race. |

Three wins in Britain at 5f (twice on AW); placed at Lingfield over the winter before being bought for 14,000gns in February; dropped out quickly after forcing pace on yard debut in Naas handicap last month on soft; probably best watched for now. |
