3yo gelding is 2-2 in handicaps against his own age group; won over 1m4f at Cork (good) and followed up off 5lb higher at Leopardstown (1m4f, good); raised another 6lb and takes on older rivals now but could be more to come in first-time cheekpieces; leading claims.

Big prices all three maidens but sent off 11-2 on handicap debut at Cork (1m4f, gd-yld) and duly delivered a 0.5l win off 63 (Servare a 3.75l fifth); the third from that race has since hosed up in a maiden; raised 5lb but from a talented family and could be more to come.

Half-brother to same yard's 1m6f Listed winner Floresta hasn't shown a whole lot in three qualifying maidens but likely improver stepped up markedly in trip here for handicap debut and yard going well.

3yo filly; progressive since sent handicapping; notched up wins at Dundalk over 8f and 10.5f before fine effort off 2lb lower at Leopardstown on latest (1m4f, good); could be more to come with tongue tie applied.

Has progressed since tackling handicaps; 0.5l win off 58 at Dundalk in March (1m) followed by a 2.25l win at the same venue in April off 65; up another 9lb now and this is a deeper race; has to prove she is effective on turf and at this longer trip (mixed messages in pedigree).

Nothing last season and didn't appear overly fancied for her handicap debut here three weeks ago (1m; 12-1), but she responded well for pressure to lead late on; raised 7lb but she is now at least a winner and promises to stay this far.

Off the mark on seasonal return at Navan in March (1m2f, heavy); not so good in 1m4f events since, upset in stalls at Cork and made much of running in first-time cheekpieces at Leopardstown before fading; headgear left off now but remains unproven at this trip; drops in grade.

Off the mark on seasonal return at Navan in March (1m2f, heavy); upset in stalls when beaten 3.75l by Darius Dark off 12lb higher mark at Cork (gd-yld); can give a good account if the cheekpieces have a positive effect.

Much-improved on last month's seasonal return when running away with 1m2f Navan handicap off 59 (second has run well since); up 12lb for that and goes further up in trip here in a better race.

Looked decent when taking the runner-up spot in back-to-back races on softer ground at Navan (1m2f, heavy) and the Curragh (1m, soft); too keen when disappointed on good ground at Leopardstown and 1m4f trip likely stretched her too; forecast rain in her favour and she's worth another go.

Found just Servare too good when a 7l second on handicap debut at Navan (1m2f, heavy); went even closer when a 0.75l second at the Curragh last time (1m, soft, two of these behind); raised 3lb; good ground and this longer trip are unknowns.

Weak form in two 1m runs at two; took a step in the right direction when staying on for fourth in a 6f maiden here on seasonal debut; raced a little too keenly over 1m2f last time and beaten 7l in fourth; this trip may suit better.
