10st 3lb |
Six-time AW winner scored for the first time on turf when winning over C&D last week; raised 9lb for that but a decent claimer takes off 7lb so that helps; not the best draw but still a big player. |

Thed last of his nine wins came over 6f at this track last year; has been disappointing in two starts this year but is now 7lb below that last winning mark; needs a return to form. |

Nine-time winner, latest over a year ago at Naas (6f, gd) off 3lb higher before good third at the Curragh; returned from layoff to be beaten 10l in claimer at Fairyhouse 14 days ago; that leaves him with plenty to find up in trip. |

Modest maiden form on soft ground; okay run at Fairyhouse on handicap debut when sixth (7f, good) in first-time blinkers (retained); improvement needed from the Irish Oaks entrant. |

Ordinary form in maidens at 6f-9f last autumn; no impact in first two handicaps at the Curragh (8f, heavy) and Roscommon (7.5f, gd-yld); eased 4lb and drops in grade but hard to fancy on form. |
