Confirmed the promise of his previous run when landing a gamble at Killarney in July. Very much had the run of the race that day, however, and has struggled since. Headgear on.

Winless for over 2 years but that could be ready to end judged on recent efforts. Drop back in trip will suit and tongue strap back on.

Easy Gowran winner 13 months ago. Hasn't hit the target since but ran best race for a while when third at Listowel last month, likely to have gone close granted a cleaner run in the straight. Now of …

Winner in France but placed just once from 9 starts for Denis Hogan. However, much better for yard debut when third of 16 at Navan 11 days ago and well treated if coming on again. RESERVE.
