Loughisle Lady showed nothing over hurdles before returning after a break and landing a 1m7f maiden here last June when trained by Willie Mullins. PINOT GRIS made a positive start in handicaps at Roscommon in May and showed the benefit to land a Down Royal handicap last month. He's up 5lb but there should be plenty more to come. Union Flag is also lightly-raced and stepped up to 1m4f at Fairyhouse where he ran his best race to date. Pale Moonlight hasn't won since landing a Gowran nursery in October 2021 but the maiden Grey Fable led for a long way at Roscommon in May.
