J: Colin Keane

T: R P Cody

Three wins in Britain in 2023 at up to 1m; regressive in the last two seasons; produced best run for some time at Dundalk in March when good second over 1m; more recent turf form just about good enough to suggest he can make his presence felt in this grade.

J: Julian Pietropaolo

T: R P Cody

Three wins in Britain in 2023 at up to 1m; regressive in last two seasons but best run for some time at Dundalk in March when good second over 1m; didn't seem to quite get home back on turf at Leopardstown last month and stamina concerns trying this longer trip for the first time.

J: Donagh O’Connor

T: R P Cody

Three wins in Britain in 2023; regressive in last two seasons but best run for some time at Dundalk last month when second to an improver over today's trip under a positive ride, his second run for the yard; same mark here, could go well from a good draw.
