Progressive 3yo followed up an easy Dundalk maiden win (7f) with another wide margin victory on handicap debut at Down Royal (7f, yielding); raised 13lb, this harder but has 6f form on soft and should go well again.

Jockey: Sam Coen(7)Trainer: Miss Natalia Lupini

Unique Journey

3yo scored by 7.5l at Naas in April off 74; raised 13lb and has come up short in both handicap starts since, though wasn't disgraced in the Bold Lad on latest; dropped 2lb but more needed off this mark.

Jockey: Shane FoleyTrainer: Daniel James Murphy
3
Gerrit's Gem

One of two for yard; back to form with a 3.5l win at Cork (6f, soft) on penultimate off 68; raised 12lb and no impact upped to 1m at that same venue latest; course form is poor; others preferred.

Jockey: Jack Cleary(5)Trainer: Kieran P Cotter
4
Jon Riggens

Two-time C&D winner and is now 1lb below his last victory; denied a clear run when not beaten that far in the Bold Lad when 8lb wrong; testing ground fine and the race should be run to suit this hold up performer.

Jockey: Ben CoenTrainer: Edward Lynam
5
I Bid You Ajou

Racked up a good ground hat-trick in a 6f claimer and two 6f handicaps at Fairyhouse in May-June; unseated soon after the start at Listowel on latest; is just 2lb above his last win and has placed form on soft so not discounted.

Jockey: Ronan WhelanTrainer: Mark Fahey
