Dual AW winner has only had three starts on turf but didn't run badly over C&D last time; still needs a fair bit more dropped 2lb. |

Improved to finish a close third to today's rival La La Lucrative at Roscommon in June and might just have been in front long enough when collared on the post by Phoenix Pairc over the same C&D three weeks ago; just 1lb higher now and good chance that she can improve enough to prevail here; cheekpieces left off today. |

Went close over 1m last year and beaten less than a length over C&D when last seen in June; two-month break is a positive as she runs well fresh; headgear added. |

Hat-trick of C&D wins the winter before last, cuminating in a victory off 84 in February of last year; mark has declined steadily since, but some creditable turf runs this summer make him of interest on first run in this grade on Polytrack. |

After 10 months off, okay runs on first two starts for this yard; quietly fancied the first day over 1m at Navan; didn't see out 1m2f last time; bred to appreciate this surface, but does have stamina to prove. |

Well beaten in three runs last year for previous yards; improvement on handicap/stable debut in blinkers a fortnight ago when seventh at Navan (1m, good); entitled to strip fitter as that was first run in 11 months; wide draw a concern. |

The last of his five wins came in 2023; ran a fine race under an inexperienced rider at Roscommon last time and should be a player with a senior rider taking over today. |

Three AW wins but just 1-34 on turf; twice well beaten lately and isn't easy to fancy. |
33/1 |
Verdict
A few with chances. Dinamine has a poor run at the Curragh to overcome but has a good 7lb claimer up if returning to form. Medieval Night comes here on the back of a good run at Gowran but might just prefer a longer trip. The drop back in trip might play to the strengths of the front-running Duchess Anne. This could be the opportunity though for PERFECT JUDGEMENT, up 1lb for a return to form at Gowran last time, but on a nice mark overall. [Justin O’Hanlon]
