Gerrit's Gem (G)
Won over 6f at Cork last September and made frame on final 2 starts that season. Yet to fire in 2 starts this year but takes a marked drop in grade here.

I Bid You Ajou (G)

Made frame on 3 occasions this season, shaping as if still in good form when fourth of 13 in handicap (3/1) at Listowel (6.3f, good) 7 days ago. Looks sure to go well again.

Ocean's Breath (C)
[T]
Resumed winning ways back up in trip and in first-time tongue strap in 7f Fairyhouse event on Friday. Yard flying and could take plenty of beating if turned out under a penalty.

Alfred Tennyson (G)
[PT]
Sole success came when blinkered at Limerick last summer. Made the frame twice this season but hasn't looked the most resolute at times. Has a bit to prove at present.

Clonmacash (G)
[V]
Has a great record on the all-weather at Dundalk, winning twice there this year already. Below form fifth at same course (5f, 10/1) 12 days ago. Seems summed up by mark at present.

Collective Power (G)
Course winner, whose latest success came at Dundalk in November. 13/2, shaped well when second of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 12 days ago. Back on turf and races from 1 Ib below last winning mark.

Greek Flower (M)
Course winner who's on long losing run. Wasn't seen to best effect when sixth of 11 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft, 9/2) in April after meeting some trouble. Returns to sprinting and may need some luck given her run style.

[TV]
Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. 4/1, not seen to best effect when seventh of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (6.3f, good to soft) 4 days ago, not ideally placed. Visor back on here.

Nouvel Espoir (G)
Successful at Cork last summer. 13/2, shaped as if still in good form when third of 10 in handicap here (5f, good to soft) 22 days ago though was left with a lot to do. Course winner who's difficult to win with but has a good record with M…
