Group 3 winner last year and made a very bold bid from the front in the Group 2 Curragh Cup hare last month, only worn down late by stablemate Tower Of London; might not be ridden so forcefully this time but likely to be in the shake-up.

Half-brother to Santiago who won this event in 2020; won maiden at Galway last September and easily made all in 1m1f Group 3 at Leopardstown, with a creditable third in Group 2 Beresford Stakes in between; needs to have progressed considerably since disappointing Chester Vase run but that is not out of the question. |

Highly tried as a 2yo after debut 2nd at Roscommon; off the mark in Wolverhampton nursery for Dominic Ffrench Davis last October; first turf win in 12f Curragh handicap last month off 75; disappointed over 10f last time but return to 12f a plus. |

Three-time winner for Barry Fitzgerald; didn't quite get home over this trip on his stable debut at Royal Ascot; capable of better but others preferred on his debut in Group company.

18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Lightly raced 6yo who easily made all at Dundalk (2m, AW) last December and did likewise at Leopardstown (1m4f, good) last month on final run for Barry Fitzgerald (has changed hands since); unraced on fast ground; repeating those tactics from his wide draw might be tricky on stable debut, but he's clearly thriving and it remains to be seen where his limitations lie. |

17th May 2024 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Good horse from a very capable yard and heading for the Ascot Stakes over a mile further; dropping back from 2m AW win and the ground will suit; market will guide but maybe they'd like to go up a few pounds to make sure of his place in the line-up next month (mark of 92 got in last year). |

Has been very effective in a mixed campaign the last two seasons, winning the Ebor handicap and seventh in the Melbourne Cup, before coming from well off the pace to win the County Hurdle at Cheltenham when last seen; should go well.

31st Aug 2024 Good 1m 6f 87y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Recent reappearance was probably his worst Flat run for over three years but it came after a five-month break, following his sparkling win in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham and he also won last year's Ebor on the Flat at York; a leading contender if he returns to his best. |

15th Mar 2024 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
10st 10lb |
High class on the Flat, winning the Ebor (1m6f, good to firm) last August; yet to transfer that ability fully to hurdles and the forecast soft ground may be a hindrance, but his Grade 1 fourth at Leopardstown (2m, soft) last month behind Ballyburn and Slade Steel was a step in the right direction (King Of Kingsfield third); has potential off this mark in view of his Flat form. |

Four-time winner at up to 2m on the Flat in Britain; fair hurdler for Paul Gilligan, winning three times this year, but might be high enough in the handicap in that sphere now; has a fair bit to find to be a factor here.
