Breath Of You
Best run in three French starts last year came over this trip on AW; way below that level on heavy ground over C&D on Irish debut; can do better now on a faster surface.

Elvetham
Some promise in maidens; best handicap run came over 1m2f at Navan last time, first run since being gelded; down in trip with the hood worn then left off; one to consider.

Weegeebear
Shock Dundalk claimer winner over 7f but won a soft-ground C&D claimer on second start for this yard; can be slowly away and lost his chance at the start back over 7f here last time; risky.

The best of three maiden runs came over 7f at this track on soft; cheekpieces tried on handicap debut and needs to do better.

Dancing Bay
A solid handicap debut at Leopardstown over 1m (beaten 3.5l) but was then beaten 15.5l over 1m1f at Tipperary; the ground was on the soft side that day so the return to a faster surface can help.

Cala Bonita
Showed improved form on handicap/seasonal debut when a 2.25l runner-up over 1m1f at Tipperary; up 1lb but can improve from that and can be involved.

Not bad efforts on first two maiden runs over 6f but was well below that level on handicap debut at Dundalk; this trip is a question.

Not much promise in three maidens including over C&D; has to do much better even dropping to this grade.

Some decent runs in defeat at Dundalk over the winter and on turf return at Bellewstown; got stuck in the mud at this track last time but can better that effort back on this faster ground.

Best efforts have come on softer ground, notably a second over 7f at this track last time under this rider; up 4lb and has to prove effectiveness on this faster surface.

Similar efforts in defeat in handicaps at Bellewstown (1m) and Tipperary (1m1f) last twice; coming back to this trip and dropping 1lb can help; player.
