Comanche Brave

Jockey: G M Ryan Trainer: Donnacha Aidan O'Brien Age/Wt: 3/9-8 F: 24-253 OR: 111

4/7

Comment: Cork maiden winner over 6f last year; some fine runs in defeat in stronger company since, notably in Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial and Irish 2000 Guineas; below that form in the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot last time and has to rebound.

Bravais

7/2

Comment: Dual winner plus was third in a Group 2 in France over 1m4f in 2023; beat Hurricane Ivor over this trip at Tipperary in April but is 5lb worse off today; decent Fairyhouse run last time but has to raise his game today.

Hurricane Ivor

15/2

Comment: Fine stalwart has won eight races up to this trip and is best with an ease in the ground; just behind Bravais at Tipperary two starts ago but is 5lb better off today; has to raise his game to beat some of the others, though.

Midnight Strike

Jockey: D McMonagle Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'Brien Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 460-40 OR: 95

11/1

Comment: Smart 2yo last year, winning a maiden and finishing a close in a Group 3, both at the Curragh over 6f; best run since when fourth in a Navan Listed on return; has plenty to find on that form and was poor last time in France.

25/1

Comment: Winner in France last year over almost 1m2f and third in a Group 2; best run for this yard when fourth in a Leopardstown Listed race over 1m but has been poor twice since; looks stable second-string.

Jockey: W M Lordan Trainer: A P O'Brien Age/Wt: 3/9-8 F: 12-99 OR: 113

Comment: Won a Curragh maiden on debut last year and was just denied in the Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes a week later; has been well below that form in two starts since and needs to get back to it even though he is down in grade.
