Left first two ordinary starts for this stable behind when winning impressively over C&D in July. Handicapper raised him 10b for it but still ran a sound race next at Killarney (fifth of 15). No reason he shouldn't again be in the shake-up.

7/4
Been in fine form all summer and ran another sound race when 4¾L sixth last week in the ultra competitive Irish Cambridgeshire at the Curragh. Handicap unchanged and big threat in first-time blinkers.

Four-time winner now 11lb below highest career mark courtesy of a below par campaign. Form far less compelling than some of these rivals.

Never won on turf and also goes beyond 1m for the first time here. Form this summer unconvincing since two AW wins in the Winter and passed over until returning to Dundalk.

Probably didn't stay 1m4f at the Curragh latest but suggested she isn't far from a competitive mark here before that. Not ruled out now back in trip under the champion jockey.

Weakened into ninth of 17 on handicap debut at Leopardstown over 1m on return and that not the first time he's finished tamely. May strip fitter now but others make more appeal.

Has place potential off this new lower mark at the pick of his form but overall profile quite in and out so others make more compelling cases.

Forecasts

Lethal Power (7/4), Aztec Eagle (7/4), Roibeard (3/1), Impactful (5/1), Jon Ess (7/1), Beckwith Place (8/1), Grace Rafaela (10/1), Secret Wizard (11/1), Clueless Hill (28/1)

Verdict

LETHAL POWER has been in great form this summer and having run well again latest in a considerably hotter contest he has the strongest form on offer here. Aztec Eagle is an interesting contender and could be anything although a long absence is a doubt. Beckwith Place is still relatively unexposed and could easily leave his last run at Galway behind here.
  1. Lethal Power
  2. Aztec Eagle
  3. Beckwith Place
