Losing run is mounting up but placed again with blinkers back on when third at Listowel (7f) last week.

Yet to win but shaping up nicely for new yard, in the frame again at Navan (5f) last time. Tongue tie back on and one to note.

Won this in 2023 and 2024 for different trainers but looks to have lost his way.

C&D winner in 2023 but lightly raced this year and ran poorly back from 3 months off here recently. Drops back to a sprint trip now.

Never looked like justifying support on rare start over the minimum trip at Hamilton 7 weeks ago but had previously reached the frame 4 times this season and returns from a break bidding to win this race for the second year running.

Won C&D handicap last season and having been in a slump since, offered a bit more back here in July in refitted headgear. Best not judged on subsequent Clonmel run over much further (headway when badly hampered entering final 1f, not recover).

Ran well in first-time cheekpieces when fifth of 16 in 1m handicap here last month, albeit not fully convincing with his stamina for the longer trip. Didn't look the easiest of rides at Listowel (7f) since, however. Stronger headgear goes on.

Remains a maiden and failed to build on a couple of better efforts when down the field at Limerick (1m) when last seen 3 months ago, a gamble on him going west.

Much improved in 2025, winning 3 times, but has underachieved this season. On a good mark if reviving.

Doubled his tally in 5f handicap here in May and back from a break after lesser efforts the last twice. Unproven beyond the minimum trip.

Maiden who left E. J. O'Neill cheaply and shaped as if better for the run back from 11 months off at Naas. Could build on that and not had much racing in handicaps.

Yet to win but ran well on her first start in a sprint handicap when third at Laytown (6f) earlier this month. Not out of it if building on that.

Successful twice over 5f last year, but little encouragement since latest win. Has been given a big chance by the handicapper and has gone well here in the past.

Lightly-raced maiden who hasn't improved in handicaps this year, including tried in blinkers. Cheekpieces go on now.

Blinkered for the first time when getting off the mark in 6f handicap at Sligo in August. That form was franked but he wasn't in the same mood in cheekpieces at Listowel last week. No headgear on this time.

Third in a strong Navan maiden on sole start at 2 yrs, but having missed all of her 3-y-o season she hasn't progressed. Down in class back from 5 months off.

Little impact in 3 races at Dundalk. Makes handicap/turf debut back from 8 months off.

Long-standing maiden handicapper who was a good second at Down Royal (5f) in June and can have his next run at Navan overlooked (short of room approaching final 1f and eased off). Placed on 3 of his 4 visits to Cork and interesting in refitted headgear back from a break off career-low mark.
