Taj Crown
Ran well in a Limerick claimer at this trip last month; below best in maidens the last twice and with a rating of 67 she's poorly treated by these race conditions but she can't be discounted in this company.

Persian Bliss
Three AW wins for Adrian Murray; beaten 8l when second in a Dundalk claimer on last Flat start in March; pulled up over hurdles at Down Royal on latest; cheekpieces added to tongue tie; a bit to prove on grass.

Royal Approval
Fine record of 3-5 on the AW for Andrew Balding; 0-3 on turf on the Flat for that yard and hasn't troubled the judge in three runs over hurdles since joining this stable; pulled up over timber at Listowel after break latest; questions to answer.

Plontier
Won a maiden hurdle at Sligo for Willie Mullins in August 2024; failed to win on the Flat for that stable (no Flat win since 2022) but far from disgraced in hot handicaps at the Curragh and Galway on last two runs on the level last season; has joined a new yard and worth checking in the market after a 208-day break.

Battling Siki
Ran okay on second start in a Dundalk maiden in January (10.5f) and again on turf debut when a 4.5l fifth of 15 at Bellewstown (11.5f, soft); struggled on better ground back there latest so has to prove he acts on this sort of surface; cheekpieces on.

Timandi
0-14 overall (0-7 on turf) but wasn't beaten far at all in a 1m4f (gd-yld) claimer at Limerick on latest when an unconsidered 25-1 shot; also went close enough in a 1m4f Dundalk claimer in December; poorly treated on the figures but that was the case last time so could outrun likely odds again.

Stone Rulya
Showed little in four runs for Ger Lyons and similar story on the Flat and over hurdles for this stable; rating of 66 could flatter him; hard to make a case for.

Wolfpack
1m Thirsk novice winner for James Ferguson last season; poor form over hurdles so far for this stable and after a slightly better run at Dundalk, was well behind Taj Crown and Timandi in a Limerick claimer latest; chance at the weights (rated 70) but risks attached.
