Bounced back to form with C&D win (soft) on latest when seeing off several of today's rivals (effort can be marked up as short of room then hampered over 1f out); up 3lb which is generous and should go well again.

J: Paddy Harnett

T: Michael Butler

Gained back-to-back C&D wins earlier this season, beating Greydreambeliever by a short head in the second one; no impact off revised mark in Curragh premier handicap on latest (8l behind Malavelly); these are calmer waters and could bounce back at her favourite track.

Rion Rubette

9st 5lb

J: Paddy Harnett

T: Michael Butler

Has hit form lately, winning two 7f handicaps at Gowran on easy ground, beating Greydreambeliever on both occasions; raised 6lb for latter success and handles faster ground fine, so has to be on the shortlist with claimer staying aboard.

Form & Verdict
Some useful form in Britain for Karl Burke; good stable debut when runner-up in course handicap (1m, soft) and improved when filling the same spot behind Rion Rubette over C&D (soft) next time; faced a tall task in Listed grade at Naas on latest; front-runner is well drawn to attack.

One of four for yard; won a novice in 2024 for Karl Burke but no joy since; some good runs in defeat this season, including a respectable fourth behind Pivotal Attack in a Listed at Galway; lots to find on paper here, however, and held in a Gowran handicap on latest; visor goes on.

Second runner for yard and the choice of McMonagle; beaten a short head by Rion Rubette in a C&D handicap on yielding in June and 3lb better off with that rival now; not disgraced in Listed race at Galway on latest; majority of best form on easy ground so could probably do with some rain.
