9st 6lb |
Four AW wins; sole turf win came at this course (7f); didn't count first two starts for this stable but failed to get a clear run late on when seventh of 15 at Limerick (1m) eight days ago (Bucaneer's Spirit third); interesting off career-low mark. |

Four AW wins, sole turf win came at Leopardstown (7f); didn't count on both runs last month for current yard under 7lb claimer but badly hampered by loose horse second occasion; senior rider takes over and don't rule out off career-low mark. |

Two Flat wins came in 2024; recent Fairyhouse run leaves him with a good bit to find but previous Leopardstown third was a solid run; visor tried now, replacing tongue-tie/cheekpieces; interesting jockey booking. |

Maiden's best efforts have come in Leopardstown handicaps, including six days ago when staying on fourth (having hung left) off today's mark; not one to rule out but others with stronger claims. |

Second in a 21-runner C&D contest last August when trained by Dermot Weld; ran his best race so far for this stable when third over C&D last month; fair chance if bouncing back from a below-par run at Roscommon last week. |

Maiden whose better efforts have come in C&D maidens; both recent handicap runs have been on heavy ground, 1m2f possibly too far at Navan latest; handicapper relenting so not without a chance back on better ground and yard going well. |
15/2 |

Placed three times; showed little over hurdles during the winter; left an impresssion he would benefit from a return to longer trips when a staying-on ninth of 26 over 1m at the Cuerragh; can do better but needs to reverse form with Satono Chevalier and Lady Mary Heath. |

Dual winner, including over C&D (good to yielding) last August off 3lb lower; best effort in three runs this year when close third at Limerick (7f, yielding) last month; slow break costly at that track a day later; could bounce back. |
14/1 |

Two-time winner, including over this trip on heavy at Gowran Park last year off 8lb lower; latest win at Bellewstown (1m, g/y) in August; satisfactory return over inadequate trip at Navan 26 days ago; 3lb drop generous and player with ground likely to suit. |

Was in the form of his life around this time two seasons ago with back-to-back 6f wins for Michael O'Callaghan; signs of a revival when seventh of 21 at Naas last month; needs to provide further reassurance to become a betting proposition. |

Sole success came on the beach at Laytown last September; lost way since but minor step in the right direction when beaten 6l in midfield at Leopardstown last time; has run well in claiming company before; could outrun odds for local yard. |

Went close from a wide draw over C&D last August; should come on from fair seasonal debut over 1m1f at Leopardstown where she was disputing the lead a furlong down; this is only her fifth start in handicaps. |
