At $15.00 finished 13th last time at Ascot. Can show a better performance this time and competing in an easier class. Been in the money on multiple occasions this campaign. Should not be far away.

Backs up quickly. Started $4.50 and ran 4th last start at Curragh. Expecting improvement here and up against a less competitive field. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will go close.

On a short turnaround. Was $51.00 and average at best when 6th last start at Curragh but drops back to a suitable grade. Displays good tactical speed. Very unlikely.

Jumped at $67.00 and just average when 8th last start at Naas but stepping down to a lower level. Will need everything to go right.

At $19.00 clearly outclassed when 11th last time at Curragh but gets some weight relief. Should jump out and bowl along. Billy Lee and Paddy Twomey make a formidable team. Very slim hope.
