Gowran Park

Arrives wearing blinkers and rated 6lbs below the field average, with a 13th-place finish and a 5th in her last two runs. Her best form has come over shorter distances than today's 1m4f trip, and she hasn't been competitive enough recently to suggest a turnaround is imminent in a deep 19-runner field.

One of the least experienced horses in this 19-runner field with just three races to her name, and she shares the joint-top rating alongside Not Just Any Eagle despite that limited record. She was beaten nearly 6 lengths last time out at Killarney, and stepping into a competitive 19-horse race is a big ask for a horse still finding her feet.

Like Satono Chevalier, Sir Callisto arrives with three straight top-three finishes, all of them at Dundalk on artificial ground. He has never won on normal conditions and draws a low stall (3), which historically gives a marginal advantage at this course and distance. The question is whether his Dundalk form translates to a very different surface today.

The second most experienced horse in the field at 38 races, but his record on normal ground is a blank — no wins from 10 attempts on good ground. His last three runs have all resulted in finishes of 5th, 12th, and 9th, and at 8 years old with a 17/1 price, this looks like a horse past its best. Hard to find a compelling angle.

Has won his last two races back-to-back, giving him three finishes inside the top three on the spin — the best recent form in the field. He carries cheekpieces and meets a new jockey for the first time today, which adds a small unknown, but an eight-year-old arriving in this kind of form demands respect.

One of just two horses in this field yet to win a race, from four attempts, and his last two runs produced a 4th and an 18th. The sole bright spot is a narrow second at Navan, but that now feels a long time ago. This is among the least experienced and least convincing form profiles in the race.

His best form has come over shorter distances — winning at 1m1f-1m2f — and he has never won on soft or muddy ground. He finished 5th last time at Ballinrobe and is drawn wide in stall 18, one of the least favourable positions at this course. The profile doesn't fit today's conditions particularly well.

Rated 7lbs above the field average, this seven-year-old looks better on paper than his recent form suggests — he finished 10th here at Gowran Park just 54 days ago, beaten 17 lengths. He has never won at this course in five attempts, and his last three runs have all been distant finishes. The market has him at 21/1 for good reason.

The most experienced horse in the field by some distance — 39 races compared to a field average of 15 — but almost all his best form has come at Dundalk on artificial ground, where he wins roughly 1 in 3. He has never won on normal conditions in five attempts, and Gowran Park is a very different test to what he knows best.

One win from 16 races is a modest return, and his most recent two runs at Curragh and Cork produced unknown finishing positions — which limits what we can say about his current form. He has never won on normal ground conditions and struggles on right-handed tracks, which is exactly what Gowran Park is. Hard to make a case for him.

She has the best career win rate of any horse in this field — winning 1 in every 4 races — and is remarkably effective at 1m4f, winning half her races at that trip. The concern is that she hasn't run for 187 days and was beaten 11 lengths last time before that break. She wears cheekpieces and the talent is clearly there, but the ring rust is a real question.

Five races into her career and showing a 20% win rate, which is genuinely respectable, but her last two runs at Leopardstown and Sligo produced unknown finishing positions — so her current form is genuinely hard to assess. Her sole win came at Dundalk on artificial ground, and she hasn't raced on normal ground since. A tricky one to read.

Has an eye-catching record on normal ground — winning 2 from 4 on that surface, the best such record in the field — but her most recent run at Leopardstown produced an unknown finishing position. She won at Leopardstown last year and has placed in 9 of her 14 races, suggesting she rarely runs a bad race. The wide draw (19) is a disadvantage, but the ground form makes her quietly interesting.

The lowest-rated horse in the field by some margin — 11lbs below average — and yet to win from five races, with a 13th and a 21st in recent outings. He carries the lightest weight today, which is the only number working in his favour. In a 19-horse field of this quality, he faces a very stiff task.
