Has now gone 12 runs since last win in 2017, but finished good second of nine in handicap at Cork (7f, good) 11 days ago and needs respecting up in trip following that effort.

Won over C&D at this meeting last year on soft ground, form this term had been decidedly poor prior to return-to-form third over this C&D on good ground last month.

Won a claimer last week at Ballinrobe over a furlong longer, entitled to get in the mix again here on that evidence.

Winner over C&D last month, scoring with something in hand and duly hit with an 11lb rating increase. Held since at Tipperary but could play a hand back here.

No win since 2016 (13 runs) well held behind Emperor Bob over C&D last month (seventh) and needs to up things despite pull at the weights now.

Had been running well this year, including when finishing fourth over 1m at Naas (good-to-firm) last month, but turned in lesser effort at Tipperary recently.

Generally not disgraced in six career starts but always appears to be susceptible to a couple of stronger finishers in her races.

One win in 31 starts while four runs this season have been underwhelming. No reason to think a revival is on the cards on ground which is quick enough for her.

Maiden, unfancied 33/1 chance at Leopardstown over 1m in April on first start for 639 days, and duly finished down the field. Hard to be confident on return from another absence.

Creditable third of 14 in handicap at Tipperary (7½f, good) 12 days ago sporting first-time tongue strap (retained). Not ruled out.

Made a winning debut for this yard when victorious over 1m at Listowel (good) in June. Well held in three subsequent starts including this month at Tipperary and more needed in this contest.

Running fairly consistent races this term but lacks a gear-change when it matters most and likely holding place claims at best as a consequence.

Made favourite a few starts back on the AW (never justified market confidence) but showed a whole lot more on soft ground with first-time blinkers straight after. Disappointed last time but now back in more suitable conditions with headgear back on.

16:45 Killarney - 22 August 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Military Hill has been in cracking for lately over slightly further and bids for a hat-trick now dropping distance and back in a handicap. He's got decent claims but ROISIN BOX won at this meeting last year and took a big step in the right direction last time out. Any rain would likely assist, but she's fancied to be in the thick of this. Tennesse Waltz and Emperor Bob both have to be given chances while Alwarda could also be capable of a challenge.
