Still a maiden after 21 starts but shaped like she may have one in her off this sort of mark at the Curragh last year. Entitled to need her comeback run here for a new trainer though.
Unplaced maiden in eight starts to date and hard to imagine that she's well handicapped in any fashion. first-time blinkers need to bring about some improvement if she is to score here.
Returns to the Flat on her last winning mark after an unsuccessful campaign over hurdles this spring. Versatile ground wise and has the services of one of the better apprentices in the race; one of the likelier types from an ideal draw.
Two wins from 12 starts, both those wins coming at Navan over 1m5f. Needs to prove he has the speed for test and wide draw not ideal.
Off the mark at the 14th attempt and appears to be progressing steadily this year. Should build on that win now and 5lb rise in the weights looks fair but probably wouldn't want any rain to arrive.
Consistent sort but possibly a little better over the mile than this trip and he can often miss the break. Wouldn't want to do that here from this draw and has a bit to do to turn the form around with Mystery Gal from their runs last time.
Improved a little on third start to finish a close up third of seven at Clonmel in a claimer. Hard to assess his handicap mark here but not dismissed if he can build on that and gets fast ground again. Market could reveal expectations.
Looked very limited ability wise until she finished second of 20 at Leopardstown two starts back of soft ground. Couldn't back it up last time and has a wide draw to cope with here so probably best watched but any rain should aid her cause.
Best efforts have come at Dundalk and got off the mark there last time out. Likely to find this tougher off a 5lb higher mark back on turf though.
Still a maiden after 15 starts but he's still very much unexposed on the Flat and he would appear to be on a fair handicap mark. Widest draw of all wouldn't be ideal but he has claims if he can over come that for a yard running at a strike rate of 35% for the previous two weeks.
One win from 15 starts and all her best form is on the AW. Struggled after missing the break on her return to turf last time and this mark perhaps beyond her at present.
Looked capable off this sort of mark on the AW earlier in the campaign but struggling returned to turf now. Did win at Brighton off a basement mark when trained by Gary Moore in England but has a bit to prove at present.
His one win from his 16 runs is starting to look like a flash in the pan and he's finished well beaten on all recent starts. Back below his last winning mark now at least.
Won off a mark 39lb higher than this at one stage but not won since 2014 and clearly regressive. First start for new yard was less than encouraging last time out and up against it once again.
Just a couple of signs this time around that she may be capable off this sort of mark and her fifth of 17 last time at Gowran Park was a fair effort. Needs to find a little bit more now but not without a place chance.
Eight-time winner on the Flat but all of those efforts came on the AW and he's yet to score in 16 turf attempts. Not won over this sort of trip since 2013 though and probably best watched from out of the handicap.

MYSTERY GIRL is progressing at a steady rate and she may be capable of recording back-to-back wins if the rain stays away. Royal Roslea is back on her last winning mark and looks capable of going well while Nicotina has been showing signs she may be able to shed her maiden tag this summer.
