Sole win for Ado McGuinness came in a 7f Down Royal nursery in September 2024; uneven form last year; needs to improve from stable debut at the Curragh in March. |

Sole win for Ado McGuinness came in a 7f Down Royal nursery in September 2024; ran well on soft ground at the Galway festival last August and 2lb lower now; off since September but worth a market check on first start for Noel Meade. |

Winner over 7f at Down Royal on handicap debut last autumn; uneven form this season; creditable fourth in the race won by Tilani from Flying Fortress here at the festival; last week's Gowran sixth was a shade disappointing. |

Has been busy this year and was fit from AW when winning over 1m at the Curragh in March; touched off on her return there before disappointing when favourite at Gowran; has made the running on her two most recent starts; may find a few too good again. |

Been busy this year and was fit from AW when winning over 1m at the Curragh in March; touched off on her return there before disappointing when favourite at Gowran; fourth over this trip on AW last time after making the running, and not sure she wants to go this far. |

Won her third race on turf when taking 1m Curragh handicap (heavy) in March before a close second there next time; disappointing favourite at Gowran on latest; 0-7 on AW but has run well on the surface and has to be taken seriously from 19lb lower AW mark. |

Ran once for Johnny Murtagh in 2023; overcame an absence of more than 1,000 days to win at Limerick last month; runner-up Treasure Rose took the same placing at Killarney last week; hard to assess, but could be competitive here with 7lb claimed. |

Fourth foal; half-sister to winners Hastily (7f; RPR 58) and Louisville (Polish 6f-1m); dam 5f 2yo winner (RPR 97) closely related to Group-placed 9.5f 2yo winner La Merced out of half-sister to US 1m4f Grade 3 winner La Luna De Miel; debut has been a while in coming but interesting to see what the market makes of her with the trainer also running Esquiline. |

Promise in two runs at two, notably when second to the subsequent 2025 Irish Derby runner-up Serious Contender; uneven form last year; just denied at Leopardstown on handicap/seasonal debut; up 4lb but still a leading contender for in-form yard. |

Highly progressive from a low base last autumn, winning all three handicaps on heavy ground, at Gowran and twice at the Curragh; continued improvement on return when fine third of 25 from 7lb out of handicap in Irish Lincoln in first-time cheekpieces; coped with good-to-yielding ground when third at Leopardstown last time; any ease would help. |

No success since back-to-back wins at the Curragh in 2024; no impact in three runs last season; mid-field on reappearance at Limerick; stable's form is a positive. |

Has come up dry since back-to-back wins at the Curragh in 2024; no impact in three runs last season; hood now reached for; sliding mark and stable form the main positives but likely best watched on seasonal reappearance. |

Won first two starts for this yard here early last season, notably handicap over this trip; well held in good-class handicaps afterwards and two runs this term (having been gelded) in June were way below his best; back from a break but has run well fresh and handles testing conditions but hard to be confident in him running to this (reduced) mark. |

Maiden after 23 runs; placed seven times up to 1m4f; two respectable runs this season, plenty of horses behind him on both occasions, seventh of 17 at Leopardstown and sixth of 23 at Navan; hard to be confident but may reward the persistence of connections at some point. |
