[P]
Without a win since August 2023, finished sixth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (8/1) 21 days ago fitted with first-time cheekpieces. This is a slight drop in class.

Voice Of Reason (G)
Back-to-back wins at Dundalk over 12f, latterly in 14-runner handicap (14/1) 23 days ago, rallying gamely after being briefly headed 1f out. Up 6 lb and stepping up significantly in trip, with previous form suggesting this longer distance …

Mixed form recently. 5th in maiden chase at Thurles (80/1) 22 days ago having finished third behind Voice of Reason over 12f at Dundalk (9/1) day before. This a much more suitable assignment.

Scatchwah (G)
[P]
Has shown consistent form at Dundalk over 12f, including when fifth of 14 in a handicap (16/1) 23 days ago, shaping better than the beaten distance suggests having been poorly placed. Tackles 2m for the first time.
