The Highway Rat (G)
[B]
Useful handicapper who had an in-and-out 2025, winning over C&D and making the frame multiple times before finishing mid-field in a Dundalk Group 3 in October. Creditable sixth of 22 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) on recent …

Erosandpsyche (G)
[V]
Placed twice at listed level last season, but below best this year, eleventh of 22 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) just over a fortnight ago. Handicapper eases his grip further but others more appealing.

Bodhi Bear (G)
FAV
Added a third win to his tally in 14-runner handicap at the Curragh over 5f on heavy on reappearance in March and back on the up when fifth of 22 in similar event there (6f, good to firm) just over 2 weeks ago, suggesting his revised mark …

Kerdos (G)
[T1]
Useful gelding who's without a success since the Temple Stakes at Haydock in 2024 for Clive Cox. Yet to fire this season (not the force of old) so returns to handicap company for the first time in ages.

Stag Night (G)
Got off the mark for the season in 10-runner handicap at the Curragh (5f, heavy) 7 weeks ago, that at least on a par with anything else he's ever achieved. 5 lb higher here and sure to continue to pay his way.

Cuban Grey (G)
[PT]
Capitalised on a slipping mark with usual tongue strap removed when winning 12-runner handicap at Dundalk (5f) just under 2 weeks ago, that just about a career best. 4 lb higher here and every chance he can follow up if translating that fo…

Namiid (G)
[B1]
showed benefit of reappearance run to get off the mark in first-time cheekpieces in 13-runner maiden over C&D (good to soft) just over 3 weeks ago. Headgear change for this handicap debut and he should hold his own.
