Has plenty of experience at the highest level, sights lowered this term, holds big chance

Three-time C&D winner, including this race last year, a little below his best on latest

Equal to the task in a recent three-runner Fairyhouse event, this is much more challenging

Course specialist with eight wins and 12 places, tough and durable, deserves respect

Cork second over 5f gives him an edge over Erosandpsyche and Navassa Island, could go well
11 (5)	Seattle b J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	126	—	6-1	-	94	59	43d	—	—	+4	12.4	9/1 10%
Won a 5f maiden at Navan in May, bare form is questionable, the extra furlong should help
10 (9)	East Hampton b J:Luke McAteer T:David Marnane	J:Luke McAteer T:David Marnane	126	—	14-134	99	109	83	17d	—	—	+8	13.9	14/1 7%
Fair fourth at Naas in his first attempt at a stakes race, this opposition is stronger
5 (12)	Russet Gold ch J:Rossa Ryan T:Roger Varian	J:Rossa Ryan T:Roger Varian	133	—	2437-6	-	115	100	36d	—	—	-4	1.4	18/1 5%
Decent form in defeat last year but chance is not obvious against strong local opposition
8 (3)	Navassa Island b J:Ronan Whelan T:M D O'Callaghan	J:Ronan Whelan T:M D O'Callaghan	128	b	5543-5	96	110	91	16d	—	—	+9	12.5	28/1 3%
Should come on from her Cork run, may struggle to reverse form with runner-up Songhai

This looks a deeper race than last year's in which he finished third behind My Mate Alfie
3 (8)	Erosandpsyche b J:Oisin Orr T:Daniel James Murphy	J:Oisin Orr T:Daniel James Murphy	133	b	2/02-3	102	111	91	16d	—	—	+17	19.2	50/1 2%
Group 1-placed here in 2022, lightly raced in recent seasons, retains plenty of ability
