Sole victory came over this trip on the AW at Chelmsford in November 2016. Sent off 66/1 over C&D on recent debut for this handler, only beaten 4L and chance of building on that with a run behind her.
C&D winner, best form recently has been over 6f, including last month when ½L second off a mark 2lb lower than this, not certain the extra furlong is in his favour.
Won a 6f claimer here last week for David Marnane and more than capable of being involved again for new trainer over this longer trip from the same mark. Respected.
Most recent win came in January 2016 over C&D off a mark of 81. Efforts in three runs here over the winter didn't suggest he's ready to take advantage of reduced mark.
Yet to win on the AW (10 starts) but often run well over longer trips, narrowly denied over a mile here this time last year but plenty to find on these terms returning from a break.
Has gone close in a claimer and a handicap over this C&D recently, first-time blinkers are added now and no shock to see him in there pitching at the business end again.
Some promising efforts over this trip and a mile around here in maidens last year, entitled to come on for recent reappearance / handicap debut and worth paying attention to in first-time headgear.
Yet open her account was agonisingly denied over C&D on penultimate run in November and again ran credibly next time. Returns from a break and is capable of going well fresh.
In decent form here when last spotted, winning over this trip either side of solid efforts at 1m/7f. Every chance from this mark if wound up for return to action.
In fine fettle here of late, winning two from previous three over C&D, up 6lb and in a slightly better race now. Not dismissed.
A 24-race maiden and held in four outings since finishing second of 26 at The Curragh (soft) over an extended 6f in August, including when just almost 5L behind Nam over C&D on return three weeks ago. 6lb better off with that rival and fitter now.
Well-handicapped with all the leading contenders in this based on last year's form. Last run following an injury is a concern and likewise his record following a break.
No win since August 2016 and has been round the houses in that time, poor over C&D in December when last spotted and might be safest to adopt a cautious approach on return to action.
Well beaten and no impression on last Flat start in April last year when 18th of 20 beaten 19L over 1m (soft) at Leopardstown. Looks opposable (First Reserve).

SEANIE has been in consistent form of late and he collected his reward for that when taking a 6f claimer here last week. It is no surprise that his new handler is seeking to strike again whilst the iron is hot and, given he finished full of running, he is worth chancing over this extra furlong. Recent C&D scorer Nam is respected but facing a tougher task now while the likes of Eacharn, Goodnite Irina and Bouquet Garni can all be taken into the mix.
