Elana Osario (M)
[T]
Took her form up a couple of notches last season, notably when landing Group 3 over C&D in August. Found life tougher in Group 2 company at Doncaster on final outing and faces no easy task attempting to concede weight all round on return.

Carmel's Phoenix (F)
[H]
Stepped up on an encouraging debut when second of 10 in maiden at Bellewstown (12.4f, good) in August, suited by increase in trip. Off since and needs a lot more improvement up in grade

It's A Heartbeat (F)
Made a highly promising start to her career, building on her Curragh maiden win with a taking success on handicap debut there (1½m) in August. Reportedly lame on her first try at this level at Naas when last seen, so well worth another cha…

Magical Zoe (M)
Smart hurdler who quickly reached a similar level in this sphere in 2024, winning 2 of her 4 starts, including the Ebor Handicap at York (13.8f) when last seen. Subsequent absence obviously a concern but has gone well fresh.

Moody (F)
[P1T1]
Runner-up at Compiegne on debut and improved when going one better in 11-runner maiden at Clairefontaine (9f, good) in July. Subsequently sold out of A. Fabre's yard for €125,000 and open to further progress in first-time cheekpieces.

Snapretend (F)
Steadily progressive last season, opening account in Punchestown maiden in September before following up in 1½m minor event at Bellewstown. Not disgraced when third in listed race at the Curragh on final outing but has a fair bit to find w…

Speckled Meadow (M)
Fair handicapper who resumed winning ways at Naas in October. Clearly wasn't 100% on the day when well beaten at the Curragh on final outing but has it all to do in this grade.

Wemightakedlongway (F)
FAV
Smart filly who has performed with credit in Group 1 company, including when sixth of 10 to Kalpana in Fillies' & Mares' Stakes at Ascot (1½m) on final outing in October, albeit well positioned. Obvious claims back down in grade.
