Four wins at up to 1m but 0-19 for this yard; good effort despite racing keenly when close fourth of 14 at Down Royal (7f, good) on penultimate; dwelt over 6f at Fairyhouse on latest; worth a market check for local handler with Colin Keane booked.
No wins in six runs for former yard; made an immediate impact for this team with 7f Dundalk win last October; sent off favourite for seasonal reappearance over that C&D in March but never figured; needs to prove his effectiveness on turf.
Winner over 1m1f on quick ground in Britain; built on Limerick second last month when scoring decisively at that venue (1m, soft) nine days later; up 6lb but no reason why he can't go well again.
Sole run at this track resulted in C&D win (good) in April 2025 off 9lb higher; posted a couple of good efforts on the AW early this year; well held next two starts at Leopardstown; step in the right direction there last time when sixth of 14 after a slow break.
Dual winner, including over C&D (good to yielding) last August off 3lb lower; best effort in three runs this year when close third at Limerick (7f, yielding) last month; slow break costly at that track a day later; could bounce back.
Last turf win came at Naas in August 2024 (7f, good); signs he could capitalise on sliding mark when close third at Killarney (1m, good) in May but disappointing favourite at Listowel next time; failed to see out 1m1f on soft at Leopardstown on latest but definite player at his best.
Shaped quite well at Galway last August on third maiden start; not a great deal of promise in handicaps, no better than seventh in four attempts; returns from 239-day absence.
Weak form for Josh Halley; best run for Andy Slattery on yard debut when third in 7f claimer at Dundalk; regressive since; first run for Eoin Griffin; best watched.
Third runner for local yard; four-time winner; last turf win in 2023 over 8.5f at Galway (soft); two AW wins since; hard to fancy on this year's form but has placed multiple times over C&D, including when runner-up at this festival last year from a stone higher; can't dismiss.
Second runner for yard; six-time winner in Britain; only glimpses of peak form since second in a claimer early last season, including third over C&D off 9lb higher; seventh of 16 over 1m at Gowran on seasonal debut; place chance.
No wins in 11 but only his second run in this headgear combination when bang there at Cork (1m, yielding) last September; something amiss next time under Colin Keane at Dundalk; has been off the track since.
Seven-time AW winner in Britain for Mick Appleby; no success since 2024; has shown nothing in 15 outings on the Flat and over hurdles for current yard.
Fourth runner for local yard; still a maiden after 18 starts, placed four times; had a good spell on AW early in the year; market can separate stable's runners.
