Latest win at Leopardstown in October. 11/1, bit below form 8½ lengths seventh of 25 to Ribee in Irish Lincolnshire at this course (1m, heavy) on reappearance 19 days ago. Could build on that and une…

Starford (G)
Smart handicap performance to win over 11f at Listowel last September. Disappointing in a 1½m listed race here on final start but appeals as one who can resume his progression in 2026.

Good third of 20 in handicap at Naas (2m, good to soft) when last seen in October. Off 173 days. Significantly down in trip so might be best watched this time.

Course winner. At the veteran stage now but has a decent record fresh and returns off his lowest mark for a long time having drawn a blank in the last 2 seasons.

Latest win at Gowran in September. 21¾ lengths seventeenth of 25 to Ribee on 1m course reappearance 19 days ago but her 7/2 SP suggests a lot better was anticipated and Colin Keane retains the ride. …

Course winner who arrives fit from hurdling (ran in Fred Winter at last month's Cheltenham Festival). Placed over C&D off 3 lb higher last year so dangerous to discount.
