Won over two miles and a furlong and a half at Downpatrick on 9 October, confirming his effectiveness on good ground. He is up 7lb to 98 for that success, so this handicap asks more of him despite the encouraging latest result. The half-furlong reduction in trip looks manageable, with his third over today's course and distance in October 2024 offering some reassurance. J L Gleeson has ridden a winner from six mounts in the past fortnight, offering a further small positive for his chance.

Returns to hurdles from 96, just 1lb above his Limerick winning mark in November 2021, although that success is a long way back. His chase win at Tramore in April over two miles and five and a half furlongs shows he retains some ability. However, he finished eighth over fences at Downpatrick in June, beaten eighteen and a quarter lengths, leaving him with something to prove. After 131 days off, he tackles two miles and a furlong, two and a half furlongs shorter than that latest chase assignment.

Eighth over two miles at Listowel on 25 September, beaten twenty and a half lengths, he needs considerably more to trouble the principals. His third at Kilbeggan earlier that month also left him well held, with twenty-two and a half lengths separating him from the winner. Today's mark of 94 is 2lb lower than at Listowel, but that easing looks modest against the scale of those defeats. He goes up a furlong on good ground, having been well beaten on good to yielding in both September outings.

His March eighth at Clonmel, beaten 23 lengths over two miles three furlongs on soft ground, leaves him with plenty to find on this return. He then unseated at Down Royal over two miles six furlongs on good ground in April and now reappears after 193 days off. He drops five furlongs to two miles one furlong, a markedly shorter assignment than the one he faced before the break. P A Fahy has trained 14 winners here, providing some encouragement from the stable's course experience.

Her third over 2m on good ground at Fairyhouse on 5 October was an encouraging advance, finishing seven and a quarter lengths behind the winner. That was a much better effort than her eleventh at Ballinrobe in September and gives her something solid to build on here. A mark of 90 is just 1lb higher than at Fairyhouse, while today's 2m1f asks her to go a furlong further. Mr D Doyle has ridden winners at Clonmel, so there is useful course experience in the saddle.

His August third at Killarney, beaten a length over 2m4f on good ground from his current mark of 89, gives him a credible form chance. He finished eighth at Navan in September, beaten seven and three quarters of a length, before unseating at Punchestown on 13 October. Today's return to 2m1f cuts three furlongs from that latest assignment and brings him back towards the distance of his Cork third in July. That Cork placing, beaten three and a half lengths on good ground, offers encouragement that he can be effective over this shorter trip.

Showed much more when fourth over 2m½f at Galway on 6 October, beaten seven and three quarters of a length on yielding to soft ground. That was a welcome response to his September defeat at Listowel, where he finished fourteenth, beaten 80 and a quarter lengths. He has been eased another 1lb to 87 and goes half a furlong further than at Galway, giving him a slightly different assignment. Today's good ground asks him to reproduce that improvement under different conditions, having finished twelfth, beaten 19 lengths, at Cork on good in July.

Finished fourth over this course and distance on 14 April, beaten eight and a half lengths on yielding ground. His second here in April 2025, beaten two lengths over two miles and a furlong on good to yielding ground, provides further encouragement. Today's mark of 85 is 1lb lower than for both those efforts, offering a little help in this handicap. He returns after 191 days off, with today's good ground presenting quicker conditions than the yielding ground of his latest run.

Won over today's 2m1f on good ground at Bellewstown in August, so the trip and going give him a sound starting point. He now races from 82, 6lb above his mark for that success, and has failed to match it in his September and October hurdle appearances. Refused to race at Listowel in September, which adds an obvious concern about how reliably he will produce his form. His fifth at Fairyhouse on 10 October was beaten 15 and a quarter lengths over 2m on good ground, leaving improvement needed.

Her Tipperary hurdle success in October 2025 gives her a chance on the figures, with today's mark of 82 standing 3lb lower. However, she finished tenth at Killarney on 4 October, beaten twenty and a quarter lengths over today's trip on good ground, and needs to revive. She has winning form here over two miles on good ground, albeit dating back to June 2021. H C Swan has ridden six winners from 30 Clonmel mounts, bringing useful course experience as she seeks to recapture her earlier form.

Her fifth at Navan on 19 September, beaten seven and a quarter lengths over two miles three furlongs on good ground, offers some encouragement. She failed to build on it at Fairyhouse on 5 October, finishing eleventh and forty-four and a quarter lengths behind over two miles. Today's mark of 81 is 1lb lower than at Fairyhouse, but that is a modest concession after such a heavy defeat. The move up a furlong brings a change of trip, although her June eighth here on good ground gives little reassurance about the return to Clonmel.

Finished tenth here over hurdles on 1 October, beaten 44 lengths on good ground, having been pulled up over fences at Downpatrick in September. Her second at Southwell in December 2025, a length behind the winner over 2m4½f on good to soft, shows she has produced much better. She now races from 80, fully 13lb below her rating for that Southwell effort, but the recent defeats make it difficult to trust that apparent opportunity. Today's 2m1f is two and a half furlongs shorter than her latest assignment, adding another change as she seeks to revive her form.

Finished eleventh at Cork on 11 October, beaten forty-nine and a quarter lengths, and needs a substantial revival after that heavy defeat. Her mark of 80 is 2lb below the rating she carried to her Gowran Park hurdle win in October 2024, also on good ground. The return to two miles and a furlong has some appeal, as she won at that trip at Wexford in May 2022. Georgie Benson has ridden a winner from three mounts in the past fortnight, providing a little encouragement from the saddle.

His Cork hurdle win in August came over 2m1f on good ground, so today's trip and going hold no obvious fears. He is now 5lb above the rating he carried there, which asks more of him from a mark of 79. Two subsequent defeats temper enthusiasm: he was beaten 24 lengths at Bellewstown before finishing tenth at Fairyhouse on 10 October, beaten 35 and a half lengths. R M McParland won on his one ride during the past fortnight, a small but welcome positive among the connections.

Returns to hurdles after finishing sixth, beaten 24 lengths, in a 2m5½f chase at Roscommon on soft ground in August. His latest hurdle effort also fell short, finishing sixth at Limerick in July, 26 and a half lengths behind the winner on good ground. Today's 2m1f is four and a half furlongs shorter than his Roscommon trip, while his hurdle mark is 3lb below his Limerick rating. A fourth over this course and distance on yielding ground in October 2025 came with a 51-length deficit, so the shorter trip is no obvious answer.

Won twice over hurdles here in February and March 2025, with the latter success over 2m2½f on good ground giving her a relevant course credential. Her current mark of 76 is 3lb below her rating for that March success, giving her some encouragement on the handicapping front. She finished seventh here over 2m7f on 1 October, beaten 13 lengths on good ground, without threatening to return to winning form. Today's drop of six furlongs brings her back towards those winning distances, although her recent hurdle performances leave her with something to prove.

Eleventh at Gowran Park on 2 October, beaten seventeen and a quarter lengths, he needs to improve on that and his pulled-up effort at Wexford in July. His mark has eased to 97, which is 7lb below the rating he carried to victory over two miles at Wexford in March 2025. The drop from two and a half miles to two miles and a furlong brings him closer to that winning distance. He also finished third here from 97 in October 2024, so there is some encouragement in his older course form.

His hurdle success at Kilbeggan in May came over 1m7½f on good to yielding, giving him winning form to draw upon. More recently, he finished sixth over 2m½f at Galway on 6 October, beaten fourteen and three quarter lengths on yielding to soft. He runs from 99 here, 2lb lower than at Galway, with an extra half a furlong to cover over today's 2m1f. Thomas Mullins has sent out two winners from 11 runners in the past fortnight, offering some encouragement from the stable.

Finished fourth over 3m on good ground at Fairyhouse on 5 October, beaten six lengths from today's mark of 100, giving him a sound recent effort to build on. That followed a fifth at Navan in September, beaten seven and three quarters of a length over 2m5f, another reasonably competitive effort. Today's drop to 2m1f cuts seven furlongs from his latest assignment and presents a substantially different test. His second at Wexford over 2m1f in August 2025, beaten half a length on good to yielding, offers encouragement for the return to this trip.
