Gained breakthrough win off 6lb lower at Kilbeggan earlier this month (2m, good) with Surviving Murmansk 5.5l back in sixth; extra furlong here should be fine for him; player again.

Three runs in maiden hurdles over the winter were nott devoid of promise; decent effort in first-time blinkers in a 1m handicap at Naas last month; cheekpieces tried for the first time over hurdles today; could go well at a big price.

Useful form at a modest level on AW last winter; poor recent run on turf; trainer's Jazzit is more appealing; first reserve.

Well-bred colt who kept on well for fourth of 16 on debut at Doncaster (7f, soft) in October; sat much closer to the pace before dropping out rather tamely at Haydock (1m, good) three weeks ago but it would be foolish to write him off after that.

9-1, kept on for encouraging fourth of 16 on debut at Doncaster (7f, soft) last October; this 260,000gns colt could have lots more to offer for his top yard and he's one to consider.

Two decent efforts in ordinary maidens over 1m2f and 1m4f at Dundalk; steps back up in trip after an ordinary effort in an ordinary Killarney maiden last week; should fare better here.

First seven runs were on AW, initially for Andrew Balding; placed in three of five Dundalk outings for this stable, including a 3l third over 1m in March; made little impression at Limerick on turf debut; better when fourth over C&D in May; closely matched with Could Dreamer on that running.

Maiden has been knocking on the door and went close again over C&D last time when a 0.5l second behind Mint Man; nudged up 1lb for that but has to be on the shortlist in current form.

Now an 18-race maiden but several good placed efforts; close second of 21 over 5f at Navan (winner won again since) in June; fast finishing fourth at Fairyhouse last month when not getting a clear run (6f, good); just 0.75l behind the winner when fourth again at Fairyhouse last time (7f, good); up 3lb more but top rider booked.

fair sixth in a 20-runner handicap over 1m5f at Navan in April, beaten only 3l and would have been closer with a clear run; another respectable run when third in a 1m4f event of this type at Limerick in June; shorter trip might not be ideal.

Filly with a good German pedigree; ran her best race so far when sixth in a 20-runner handicap over 1m5f at Navan in April, beaten only 3l and would have been closer with a clear run; several others have a stronger chance in theory, but perhaps unwise to rule out.
