Kevin The Great (G)
[T]
Has tumbled down the weights and, fitted with a tongue tie after a break having left Jessica Harrington, ran creditably when fourth at Navan (13f) last month, having no issue with the distance. Could build on that and big shout over this e…

Desert Friend (G)
[T]
Snapped a losing run at Dundalk in March and went in again at Sligo (1¾m, good to soft) in May. Well beaten at Navan last time and needs to bounce back.

Jurality (G)

Finally got off the mark in 14-runner handicap at Navan (13f) last month. Can go well again after a 6 lb rise.

Mystic Rose (F)
[T1]
Yet to win but probably did a bit too much too soon under an aggressive ride when fifth to Jurality at Navan and her mark has dipped further. Tried with a tongue tie now.

Maxwell Smart (G)
Has been in good heart, running well over hurdles at Downpatrick last time. Goes well here (second in this last season) and one to consider.

Voice Of Northeast (G)
[PT]
Returned with his best effort for this yard when fourth at Leopardstown (13f) 7 weeks ago but needs to build on that over an even longer trip now.

Numidia (G)

Is 3 lb below his last winning mark but hard to catch right and ran one of his lesser races at Down Royal a fortnight ago.

Al What (F)
Maiden who hasn't seen her races out the last twice but has run well under this apprentice before. Has stamina to prove.

Celestially (F)

Maiden who is proving consistent rather than progressive in handicaps and tackles a new trip here.

Velvet And Vine (M)
[P1]
Maiden who probably needed the run at Down Royal after 17 months off and this should reveal more now fitted with cheekpieces.

Bang Po (G)
On a long losing run but produced his best effort for a long time behind a couple of these at Navan (13f) 4 weeks ago. Needs to back that up over this even longer trip.
