Horse A-Z
Encouraging second of 14 in 7f maiden at Dundalk on his belated debut 64 days ago, faring best of those held up. Can do better now.

Fairly useful hurdles winner who comes here on the back of a very good second of 16 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown 89 days ago. Posted an encouraging fifth on her Flat debut in 14f Listowel conditions event so not ruled out.
|
Timeform
Behind in a pair of 6f/7f Dundalk maidens this year. Has lots to find on form.
|
Timeform
Siyouni colt who looked very much in need of the experience when a debut ninth of 13 in 6f maiden here 9 months ago. Holds an Irish 2000 Guineas entry so seems sure to take a step forward here for top yard.

Fair maiden who signed off for 2025 with a very good sixth of 8 in Eyrefield Stakes at Leopardstown (9f) in October. Tongue strap added. The form pick for last year's winning yard.

Timeform
Much better effort when third of 13 in maiden over C&D 175 days ago. This son of Australia can take another step forward.

Australia gelding. Dam winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 6.7f winner). The market can guide.
Timeform
Gelded and failed to build on debut sixth when occupying same position in 1m maiden here 13 days ago. This son of Magna Grecia could still do better.

Timeform
Twice-raced gelding. 150/1, twelfth of 16 in 6f maiden here 13 days ago. Needs a major step forward.

Hooded when a promising third of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (7f, good to soft) on his debut 161 days ago. This Beckford colt is open to progress and needs considering.

33/1, last of 5 in 6f novice at Dundalk on her debut 15 days ago. Lots more required.

Forecasts

Thisistheway (5/2), Listentodwindblow (10/3), Zenford (4/1), Loch Gamhna (5/1), Spacebound (6/1), Lewis Carroll (8/1), Templenoe (12/1), The Wee Man (25/1), Darwin's Angel (25/1), Mr Perth (50/1), Billy Jean (50/1), Hiltons Pass (66/1), Akissfromarose (100/1)

Verdict

Aidan O'Brien's LEWIS CARROLL was too green to do himself justice on debut here last June but this son of Siyouni still holds an Irish 2000 Guines entry so can prove a different proposition on his return. Joseph O'Brien took this 12 months ago and his Listentodwindblow seems sure to go well along with fairly useful hurdler Thisistheway who makes just her second start on the level.
