'Took fifth place on all three starts last season, each-way prospects now off reduced mark'

'Course winner over a bit further on good ground in 2021, below best at Dundalk lately'

'Went up 5lb for beating London Palladium last time, should be close between the pair now'

'Twice second at Cork last May, still a maiden, disappointing favourite on seasonal debut'

'Not disgraced in mid-field over C&D on seasonal debut, still a maiden after 39 outings'

'Placed three times for Ger Lyons, regressive for this stable, chance is not obvious'

'Limerick claiming race winner last season, fair handicap form included a third over C&D'

'Reproduced useful Dundalk AW form when third over 1m1f on heavy ground at Leopardstown'

'Two wins early in career in Britain, a first Irish win is feasible following C&D second'

'Nothing in his maiden form to suggest he can play a leading role here on handicap debut'

'Has been in fair form at Dundalk in recent months, placed at this venue in 2021'

'Good AW form in opening months of the year, may be feeling the effects of a busy campaign'

'Two wins, two places at Dundalk, less effective on turf, third in a claimer here last year'

'Ran only three times last season; best effort was at Killarney, the scene of his 2021 win'

'Second in a Dundalk claimer last October, handicap form provides little encouragement'

'Has failed to improve since a fair debut at Dundalk last August, others appeal much more'
