Without a win since debut but runner-up 3 times at this track in handicaps this season, going down narrowly to Rion Rubette on last 2 occasions. Has largely struggled in better company since but is well suited by the conditions of this race and yard is still flying. High on the shortlist.

Justified support when making a winning start in comfortable fashion in ordinary Naas maiden last year. Made little impact in minor event at Cork on return from 12-month absence and having been gelded but is probably best forgiven that effort having ploughed a lone furrow. Remains with potential.

Continued a theme of run-to-run progression and showed a solid turn of foot when winning a 7f maiden at Down Royal when last seen in September 2023. Mammoth absence to overcome.

Off the mark at Dundalk (7f) on final 2-y-o start and made a solid start to life in handicaps earlier in the season. Not so good the last twice, though, and some improvement needed if she's to figure in this company off these terms.

Without a win this year but some good runs in defeat for Ado McGuinness and arrives in better heart than recent form figures suggest, left with plenty to do on both of his last 2 starts. Likely to be involved at the finish if breaking on terms.

Debut winner of 6f Curragh maiden as a 2-y-o but has come unstuck in graded company since either side of a 6-month break. Returns from another 5-month absence here and has plenty to prove to at present.

On a lengthy losing run but went close in a competitive handicap at the Curragh in June and made the frame in the Irish Cambridgeshire last month. Ran poorly last time, though, and will need to bounce back to his best to feature.
