9/2

Comment: Brought his career tally to seven with a hard-earned defeat of favourite Mutasarref (now 2lb better off) in a Listed race over C&D a month ago; admirable sort but looks well held by Diego Velasquez on running here last September, and Mutasarref has slightly stronger credentials.

14/1

Comment: Progressive at 7f-1m last season after gelding operation; won a 1m Naas handicap off 90 on good; beaten just 1l into third in the 7f Group 3 Jersey Stakes at Ascot in June (7f, good to firm); fourth on soft in a Listed race at Tipperary on his final start of 2024; found 6f inadequate at Cork on seasonal debut.

25/1

Comment: Won a maiden and a handicap (off 90) last year; 0-4 in stakes races but finished a respectable fourth in a 1m2f Listed race at this venue in October; returned to action with a career-best effort when second under a big weight in the Irish Lincoln; harmed his chance with a slow start in a conditions race at Tipperary last time.

33/1

Comment: Lightly raced in France for Jean-Claude Rouget, winning Chantilly AW maiden early last season and much better form when third in Group 2 Prix Eugene Adam at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, good to soft); last of seven behind Economics at Deauville on final French start; 50-1, never involved in 1m2f Curragh Group 3 on Irish debut.

Jockey: C D Hayes Trainer: Noel Meade Age/Wt: 8/9-9 F: 4/0320- OR: 107

50/1

Comment: Winner of nine of his 38 starts; 6-26 in stakes races, best form at the Curragh, four wins at 1m-1m2f, including two Group 3s and a Group 2; 4-13 Curragh record contrasts with his 0-9 record at this track, though he ran well when second over 1m2f here on his penultimate start last season; needs further than this; tongue-tied for first time.

Diego Velazquez

Jockey: W M Lordan Trainer: A P O'Brien Age/Wt: 4/10-0 F: 8011- OR: 119

Comment: C&D Group 2 winner at two; experienced a couple of reverses last season after a creditable fourth in the Poulains; floundered in testing conditions in the Prix du Jockey-Club and failed to stay 1m4f in the King Edward VII Stakes; redeemed himself with a handsome 1m1f at this venue and signed off with an emphatic C&D win from Mutasarref.
