Slaney Swagger
13-race maiden and below his juvenile form in six starts for Alice Haynes last season; probably best watched on reappearance/yard debut; blinkers on.

Metamorpheus
Only win came on heavy ground over hurdles and 0-8 on the Flat; running okay in defeat of late but drop in trip is a concern this time.

Tartaraghan
0-21 but went close on several occasions last season and probably needed Friday's return run at Leopardstown; drop back in trip in her favour and not ruled out despite a wide draw.

Ran well here over 7f on heavy ground in March 2024 but struggled subsequently last term and tailed off when making her yard debut on return.

1-20 and only success came on AW; respectable third at Dundalk on penultimate run but form dipped back on turf here (1m4f) since; shorter trip should help and Keane booked too.

First win since 2022 at Killarney last season; poor efforts twice this term and stamina to prove at this trip; new headgear combination.

1m AW winner and only 2lb above her last winning mark; shaped like a return to form was imminent on her penultimate outing but showed nothing on her sole previous try at this distance.

Struggling over timber recently and best Flat effort in recent times have come over further than this; looks vulnerable.

Has gone close over timber but yet to show enough on the level; unseated on the Flat last time and suspicion she'll end up needing further than this trip in this sphere.
