'Back from summer break and could still have more to offer back on soft so will want rain'
'Recent Galway second up 3lb and other likely stronger stayers here'

'0-10 on turf but close third in C&D premier handicap last month gives him claims'
'Handicapper may have his measure right now'
'Hasn't won in three years; declining mark but remains opposable'
'Showed a bit more at Leopardstown last time off this reduced mark; others still preferred'
'Improved under forcing tactics of late; 3lb higher here so needs to improve again'
'Possibly made too much use of in the conditions latest; don't rule out him bouncing back'

'No show on handicap debut but likely easier ground to suit so don't rule out'
'Leopardstown handicap debut winner could well have more to offer despite 6lb rise'
'French heavy-ground winner well held after long absence at Cork recently; best watched'
