TrackLab Insight
The market favourite at 5.0, this 3-year-old has three placed finishes from ten races but remains winless — she finished third at Leopardstown just 18 days ago. The market is backing improvement, but she has yet to convert any opportunity into a win, and questions remain about whether she can finally break through.

TrackLab Insight
The in-form horse in this field: he won at Limerick this week and was beaten just 0.1 lengths at Fairyhouse before that. He's suited to 7f–1m distances (25% win rate) but has never won on good ground (0 from 5 attempts), so he faces a genuine test of his recent momentum on today's faster surface.
One of the more successful in the field (5 career wins)

TrackLab Insight
The editorial pick sits third in the ratings but her upward trajectory is the real story — she's won twice on good ground (22% win rate over 7f–1m distances) and just missed at Fairyhouse three weeks back. The risk is her poor record on standard ground (0 wins from 7 attempts), but if the going stays firm as forecast, she has genuine form on her side.

TrackLab Insight
This 3-year-old just won at Roscommon 77 days ago but arrives without a race on good ground — all her previous runs were on softer or standard surfaces. She's well-suited to 7f–1m (33% win rate) and could adapt, but the lack of experience on today's conditions is a genuine unknown at this stage of her career.
The form is eye-catching — three straight top-three finishes including two seconds by the tightest margins — but this mare is still searching for her first career win after 17 races. She's never won at Dundalk either (0 from 9), and while the form sparkles, the repeated near-misses suggest she may lack the final kick.

TrackLab Insight
Won her only race at Dundalk on standard ground in October, a track and surface combination that suits her — but she hasn't run anywhere else successfully and has never won on good ground (0 from 5 attempts). On unfamiliar ground and terrain at Naas today, she's a long shot.
A 3-year-old returning from a five-month break after running just three times in her career, finishing unplaced each time. She's lightly raced and potentially improving, but the absence is a major concern and she remains completely unproven at this level.

TrackLab Insight
This is a horse that absolutely thrives on standard ground (6 wins from 11 starts, 55%), but there's a massive problem: he's never won on good ground despite six attempts. Since today is good ground and Naas is a right-hand galloping track where he's won zero from 11 races, he looks vulnerable despite his excellent 20% career win rate.

TrackLab Insight
Just won at Gowran Park nine days ago and has placed in four of his last six races, showing real consistency for a 7-year-old veteran with 37 career runs. However, he's never won on standard ground (0 from 11) and has never won on right-hand galloping tracks (0 from 12), both of which apply today at Naas.
Just one win from 22 races but has placed in 13 — she's the definition of a horse that keeps showing up without quite getting there. She's never won on standard ground (0 from 14) and finished second by just 1.0 length at Nottingham 39 days ago, suggesting she might finally be peaking at the wrong time for today's surface.

TrackLab Insight
One win from 23 races tells the core story, but this horse has placed in 11 of those outings and was fourth or better in three of his last four races. He's never won on good ground (0 from 7) and has never won at Dundalk (0 from 12), making today's conditions and unfamiliar surface genuine obstacles.
Still searching for a maiden win after eight races but has three placed finishes and finished second by just 1.8 lengths at Killarney 20 days ago. She's relatively lightly raced and potentially improving, but remains winless and the recent form, while encouraging, hasn't converted to a victory yet.
Only three career races with no wins or places — she's the least experienced and least successful horse in this field. Finishing eighth, eighth, and sixth across those three outings, she's well down the pecking order and unlikely to trouble the principals today.
Joint top-rated by the field average but alarming recent form — beaten 17.8 lengths at Fairyhouse just 26 days ago and has won only once in 13 career races. He's never won on good ground (0 from 5 attempts) and his only victory came on yielding ground, making him a poor fit for today's conditions.

Just one win from 31 career races (3% win rate) makes this 6-year-old one of the poorest performers in the field, though she has placed in two of her last three runs. She's never won on standard ground (0 from 10) or at Dundalk (0 from 10), and those records combined paint a bleak picture for today.

A Dundalk specialist with all four career wins at that track on standard ground, but she's never won on good ground (0 from 14 attempts) and hasn't placed in her last two races. She's simply not built for the faster surface at Naas today, despite her proven record elsewhere.

Joint top-rated and boasts the best record on good ground (4 wins from 14 starts, 31%) and the best record at 7f (5 wins from 12 starts, 38%) in this field — exactly what today demands. The only concern is she's never won at Naas in five attempts, but her credentials for this race are genuinely strong.

Winless from 10 races across her entire career and hasn't raced in 77 days, making her one of the least prepared runners here. She's also among the lowest-rated in the field and carries little form to suggest she's about to break through today.

The lowest-rated horse in the entire field (54 OR, 10 pounds below average) with five races and not a single place to show for it. She finished ninth and 12th in her last two runs and carries the lightest weight (119 lbs), but form like this simply doesn't win races at this level.

How do odds work?The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
