'Five-time winner in France, only one of his four Irish runs provides any encouragement'

'Veteran can go well when fresh, that gives him a realistic chance, best at this trip'

'All three turf wins on good ground though not a bad run on soft at Gowran 13 days ago'

'Lightly raced filly, possibly well enough handicapped but may need a sound surface'

'Consistent last year without winning, has been a long way below his best this season'

'Not a bad effort when fifth in a maiden here last time, though that was not a strong race'

'Second of 25 behind Zephron over C&D last month makes him a very strong contender'

'Good placed form at Dundalk before a slightly disappointing run over 1m here in March'

'Two wins last autumn including C&D, may improve enough from seasonal debut to feature'

'Needs to improve on two Leopardstown runs, started the season well with second over C&D'

'Runner-up to Paddington in a maiden here two seasons ago, has failed to build on that run'

'Placed form in handicaps at Leopardstown (twice) last July, probably wants better ground'

'Two 6f outings at this venue this season have been encouraging, more needed though'

'Is 0-12 on turf, third at this venue on two occasions last season, needs to find extra'

'Seven-time winner, in rear over C&D on only start last season, best watched for now'

'Consistent last season, 2-25 turf record is not good enough to inspire strong confidence'

'Both wins have come over 6f at this venue; shaped well at Cork before poor 6f run here'

'Long-priced winner of this race 12 months ago, that seems to have been a flash in the pan'

'Soundly beaten on final two starts in 2023, has suffered the same fate twice this season'

'Won at Tramore last September; out of form in latter stages of the campaign'
