Battled hard to win at Punchestown last time over 3m, his first score; up 6lb for today and should stay this trip; is lightly-raced for his age and likely still progressing; a player. |

Career has been punctuated by long breaks; coped better than most with very testing conditions when third of four finishers at Thurles (2m7f, heavy) last month on stable debut; two less encouraging runs since then; hard to assess, makes handicap debut. |

Consistency over hurdles this season was rewarded here last time when gaining a first win (2m5f, good) off 7lb lower; must carry joint top weight on chasing debut but he's in good form. |

Has improved for better ground; edging up the weights after placed efforts at Punchestown (3m, gd-yld), Listowel (20.5f, gd-yld) and on latest at Limerick (22.5f, good); nudged up another 2lb, but should be on the premises again. |

Has returned from a 405-day absence with three handicap runs, improving with each one; 15-8 favourite at Tramore (2m1f, good to yielding) last time, arriving with every chance before weakening into fifth; this trip is worth a try. |

Has posted decent runs in defeat the last twice over further, notably last time in a higher grade at Fairyhouse (2m4f); can be closely involved if as effective over this trip. |

Narrow Down Royal winner (3m, good to yielding) last October, prior to career-best third at Ascot (3m;) the following month; less competitive in 2026, beaten 26l over C&D latest; cheekpieces fitted with renewed spark needed. |

Upped to 3m for a last-gasp win in 20-runner race at Down Royal in October; respectable fourth of 18 under James Smith at Punchestown (again 3m on good to yielding) last month confirms her in serious calculations. |

Went closest to scoring when just denied in a Punchestown handicap over 2m in January (well-backed) on soft to heavy ground; raced keenly over 3m on return at the same track last month; 5-2 favourite at Clonmel last time but was a disappointing seventh; cheekpieces go on and Cobden rides for the first time so he must be respected. |

Dual point-to-point winner is 1-4 over fences, with the victory coming over C&D in 2024 off 4lb lower; got a first hurdles win here last year (3m1f, yielding); well beaten on seasonal return at Punchestown in May and didn't improve at Sligo last time; return to this venue could spark him. |
