9st 2lb |
Two wins last year, including over 1m at this venue; first two runs this term were moderate, including in a Sligo race in which Chico Guerrera was second; returning to form with a 7f win at Roscommon and backed that up over an extended 1m1f at Gowran with Chica Guerrera in third; can remain competitive despite an aggregate 10lb rise |

Two wins last year, including over 1m at this venue; two moderate runs this term, including in a Sligo race in which Chico Guerrera was second, before returning to form with a winning display at Roscommon a fortnight ago; made all over the extended 7f then, this trip is within her range; 5lb extra does not seem harsh. |

Ordinary form in turf maidens; improved for switch to AW; won on handicap debut over 7f at Dundalk in February off 63; doing his best work at the finish when a 7l fourth of 23 at the Curragh in March (soft to heavy); fair fifth of 21 over 6f at the same venue last time (soft); should appreciate this longer trip and better ground. |

Ordinary form in turf maidens but improved for switch to AW and won on handicap debut over 7f in February off 63; doing his best work at the finish when a 7l fourth here last time (7f, soft to heavy); not certain a drop to 6f is what he wants. |
