Useful on his day; however, on a three-year losing spell and current mark reflects a decline in his form since last July; the betting may offer further guidance with Ripon reappearance under his belt.

Over two years since the last of his 15 wins and he's on a retrieval mission after a series of modest efforts since August; this is a marked drop in class for him though and a revival wouldn't be a total shock.

J: James Sullivan

T: John & Sean Quinn

Winner of a big 6f handicap on soft but nearly all of his 15 wins have come on good or quicker; under the handicapper's thumb this year but he's been dropped 3lb for a respectable run in the Ayr Silver Cup last Saturday and he does have a good record here, 2-4 in C&D handicaps.

Another old faithful of the sprint division; has yet to run poorly here and hasn't been far away in each of the last three runnings of the Gold Cup (third in 2021); on a losing run of more than two years though and unfortunately has run enough good races in 2024 to keep him high in the weights.
