Ten-race maiden was denied by 0.5l by Zenford at Limerick last time out (7f, soft) and just 2lb higher now; went close on good ground at Fairyhouse in May; in the mix again but needs to find a bit more to get his head in front.

Maiden has run several sound races in defeat for Johnny Murtagh and this yard; put a blot on his record at Fairyhouse last week; overall form, including a close third behind Fortuity on his penultimate start, gives him a place chance.

Maiden has run several fine races in defeat for Johnny Murtagh and this yard; raced a bit keenly over 7f here last time when just denied and should cope with the drop in trip; considered.

T: Patrick T Foley

Runner-up in Down Royal nursery for Johnny Murtagh and has returned with two solid efforts for current yard without convincingly staying the mile trip, at the Curragh and when weakening late at Cork, both times on soft; drop back in trip and better ground makes him a major player.

T: Patrick T Foley

Best effort last season a 1.5l second on handicap debut at Down Royal (7f, good); 4l behind Arctic Assassin on seasonal return at the Curragh; weighted to close the gap to that rival and should strip fitter but might prefer quicker ground.
