Came with a late run to record an eleventh career win at the Curragh recently over this trip; 3lb rise okay so expected to be thereabouts. |

A winner of seven races on AW and three on turf; last turf success was in 2022, but this season's overall form provided a fair amount of encouragement; a three-time runner-up at this venue, including in June; had plenty of horses behind him at Leopardstown ten days ago. |

C&D winner has shaped as though turn was near the last twice; beaten a head by Movin And Groovin over C&D on penultimate off 2lb lower and beaten 1.25l when second of 18 at Naas (1m, good) on latest; should be thereabouts again. |

A 1-22 turf record is worrying; however, he holds a good chance if reproducing the form of recent Dundalk second, which gives him an edge over Akashaa (sixth). |

Hold-up performer by necessity, really, as he can be tardy from the gates; C&D winner and just failed to get up here in April; only 1lb higher now and if they go hard, it will be a big help. |

On a long losing run but has run well from the front the last twice, most notably at Naas last time in a race he set up for closers; could be dangerous if allowed dictate but stall 16 is problematic. |

Maiden not beaten far a few times here earlier in the year, over trips between 6f-1m; likely to find a few too strong but minor place claims. |

Maiden after 15 starts; placed only twice, including on latest when never-nearer third of 12 here (7f) 13 days ago; each-way player if he sees out the extra furlong from unchanged mark. |

Runner-up five times over C&D without winning; mostly out of form this year but down to a career low mark and perfectly possible that he could be revitalised here. |

Is 15lb lower than when winning over C&D last summer and took a step in the right direction when beaten 3.5l over C&D on latest; eased 3lb for that run and well-drawn here; could go well at a price. |

Not easy to win with but often runs well in defeat; is 7lb lower than when winning over C&D in March 2025 but he's becoming difficult to predict; only midfield at Leopardstown on latest; others look more solid. |

Weak maiden form; big price when failing to make any impression at the Curragh on handicap debut; tailed off on AW debut in November but was drawn wide on first try at 10.5f; returns from break with Colin Keane booked so market must be monitored; cheekpieces. |

By far the best of three maiden runs came over 1m at Navan last time; of interest on handicap debut if supported in the market. |
