A 13-race maiden, has gone close over C&D before and ran a fine race over 7f here in August before being well beaten at this track again finish seventh of 14 over 1m. Tough ask in current form.
One from three here with the win coming in October 2015 over 6f. Solid and consistent without winning on turf over the summer puts him in with a chance of hitting the frame.
Both wins came over 1m½f at Wolverhampton so likes the AW but significantly higher in the weights now and trip a doubt too.
Potentially needed the run when tailed off over 7f on heavy going at Roscommon in August, yet to really threaten in five attempts over 1m. Difficult to fancy dropped in trip.
Sixth of 14 but a not disgraced beaten 3L in 1m handicap last month. Worth a check in the market.
Has had a torrid season well beaten in five handicap starts over a variety of distances. Looks a tall order on form shown.
Still a 19-race maiden but but a string of disappointing runs behind her when finishing third of 14 beaten ¾L behind Sleepy Head. Needs to break well to be in with any chance of hitting the frame.
Veteran who has not seen since finishing 12th of 14 beaten 6½L in May 2015. Market likely to reveal expectations on return.
Has some solid and consistent performances to his name on this track. Struggled off his new mark last time out following maiden win at Naas. Worth a market check.
Improved effort in 1m apprentice contest at Killarney last month off a short break,before a fine second of 14 last month here over 1m. Could well appreciate first-time cheekpieces here.
Has been running consistently over the summer without winning on turf. Still a five-race maiden here and this may be a tough ask at the distance.
Beaten on five occasions here since joining the yard in 2015. A little promising last time out but will still need a vast improvement to play a role here.
Has put in two solid performances here in August and September including a 2¼L defeat last time out behind Boxer Dunford. Well beaten in two 7f starts here is a worry.
Filly out of Bullet Train, just three starts on turf, well held in 1m claimer at Gowran Park last month, makes handicap debut and AW bow, requiring a fair deal of improvement seemingly

Outsiders Bluesbreaker and Feotanach could make the early gallop from the inside stalls here. Iconic Figure, not far behind Boxer Dunford last time out, the improving Bouquet Garni and the ultra-consistent Hattons Cross can all battle for minor honours while Colin Keane's mount COMPATRIOT can make up for her nose defeat last time out here in September by landing the spoils dropped back in trip and in first-time cheekpieces.
- Compatriot
- Hatton Cross
- Bouquet Garni
