'Didn't stay at Galway; back to more suitable trip on decent ground with cheekpieces tried'

'This step up in trip for handicap debut not scripted for on breeding'

'Unlucky-in-running Leopardstown third on Thursday; big player'

'Front-runner in fine form of late and another bold bid expected'

'Trip inadequate at Gowran when last seen so more now possible back at more suitable trip'

'Lightly raced 3yo not a guaranteed stayer on breeding here on handicap debut'

'Outran his mark in Sligo claimer and has been upped 9lb'

'Hard to make a case for unless first-time cheekpieces bring about huge improvement'

'Back from hurdling with first flat run of 2023 and others preferred'

'Far too keen at Killarney on Thursday over 1m6f'

'Held by the handicapper of late and this trip probably a bit too far'

'Opening mark seems on the high side; gelded and tried in a tongue tie here'

'Recent Dundalk run a good effort considering how far he came from; not one to rule out'

'Three wins in Britain over shorter trips, never run over this far and 4lb wrong; reserve'

'Weak form this year and hard to fancy despite declining mark'

'Tipperary winner back from a break with stamina concerns; yard among the winners this week'
