Enjoying a resurgence for current yard, finding only a single rival too good on 3 of his last 4 starts, chasing home Gino Bella in 11-runner event at Cork on latest after just 2 days off. Up 5 lb now and should continue to give a good account, but others preferred.

Comfortably opened his account on the Flat in first-time blinkers in July before running up to his best in this sphere when 2¼ lengths second of 6 to Rightfolksplease in handicap at Tramore following month. Has run well back on the Flat since and claims if still in same form.

Dual winner over fences last season, including at Tramore in April. Runner-up here the following month and possibly needed the outing when down the field at Galway in July. Potentially very well treated now reverting to hurdles for yard that target this meeting and won this race in 2025.

Fairly useful hurdler but doubts were creeping in over his attitude in that sphere at the end of 2025 and arrives on the back of unpromising efforts on the Flat and over fences.

Fair hurdler who has proven more miss than hit to date but wasn't seen to best effect when 17 lengths eighth of 20 to Inthenickoftime at Galway last time, having hopeless task from position.

Allowed to establish a huge lead when finally getting off the mark in 16-runner handicap at Kilbeggan in July. Disappointed next time and was let down by jumping at Sligo last month. Dangerous if allowed too much rope.

Fair on Flat and readily surpassed anything achieved previously over hurdles for present yard when second of 12 in a Downpatrick maiden (2¾m) in June. Failed to back that up in similar event at Roscommon last time.

Left previous efforts behind when winning 14-runner handicap at Wexford in May. Has looked summed up by his revised mark since, though, and usual hold-up tactics may not suit around this sharp track.

Veteran who won a novice handicap chase at Sligo last season but hasn't shown anything of note over hurdles since 2024.

Off the mark at Cork last season and unlucky to bump into an improver at Sligo (2¼m, good to soft) next time. Yet to fire this time around but has joined yard with good record at this meeting over the years and is one to consider for all the trip looks on the sharp side.

Unpromising in points and only minor encouragement in 3 maiden hurdles in recent weeks, though should do better now tackling a handicap.

Recent Flat efforts are uninspiring, but he did show improvement in that sphere in the spring, landing a handicap at Roscommon in May from a next-time-out winner. Little impact in a trio of maiden hurdles, though, and needs to both bounce back and brush up his jumping if he's to do better.

Modest maiden handicap hurdler who hasn't been seen since unseating over fences at Wexford in June. Hood back on.

Typically proved too free sent handicapping when down the field in 15-runner event at Killarney (17f, good to soft) in July.
