    Verdict
    Opened his account in 5f Navan maiden in May and has followed that up with in-frame efforts in handicaps on last 2 starts, ¾-length second of 5 to Rosie Frith at Bellewstown on latest. Remains of interest off the same mark.

    Verdict
    Won novices at Ripon/Thirsk last summer for James Tate but ran poorly on final outing for that yard and didn't go with much encouragement on debut for current connections at Down Royal last month. Too soon to write off but improvement needed.

    Verdict
    Opened her account at Dundalk (5f) in April but bettered that form when neck second of 12 to Amiata in C&D handicap next time. Again ran well at this track when 3¼ lengths third of 14 to Midnight Dusk in similar event last time and still not yet fully exposed.

    Verdict
    Dundalk nursery winner in the winter, who probably needed the run when last of 9 in handicap there on return 6 days ago. Races from correct mark now and back on turf for the first time since September. Interesting under Oisin Murphy.

    Verdict
    Bounced back to form with a vengeance when winning 12-runner handicap at Naas by ½ length from Bold Optimist a fortnight ago. A 5 lb rise demands more, but yard looks to have turned a corner recently.

    Verdict
    Showed much improved form when winning 5f maiden at Bellewstown by 2¾ lengths from Sparky Sparky 15 days ago, looking more straightforward under forceful tactics. This return to handicap company likely to provide a far sterner examination of her quirks, however.

    Better on the all-weather but does have a past C&D success to his name. On a losing run stretching back 22 starts and over 18 months but has been shaping with more encouragement on turf of late.

    Verdict
    A dual C&D winner in the past. Has dropped significantly in the weights but hinted at a revival when 2½ lengths sixth of 12 to Sovereign Cry at Naas 14 days ago, keeping on despite meeting plenty of trouble. Booking of Colin Keane catches the eye.

    A 3-time winner, including twice over C&D (this race in 2024, and final outing in 2025). Yet to fire this season but shaped with a bit more encouragement when 7¾ lengths seventh of 14 to Midnight Dusk at this course last month. Blinkers back on.

    Verdict
    Won 7f maiden at Dundalk in 2025. Best effort this year when third of 7 to The Right One at Down Royal (5f) last month. Failed to build on that effort back on polytrack last time, though, and this likely to prove far too competitive.

    Much improved in 2025, winning 3 times, including over 6f at this course. Is proving more miss than hit this season, though, and returns to sprinting after a couple of poor efforts at 7f earlier this month.
