Arrives in very good nick, suffering a poor run when a strong-finishing seventh of 22 in handicap at the Curragh (6f) 8 days ago. Completed a hat-trick early last summer and looks primed to strike again off a 2 lb lower mark.

Comes here in good nick, though seemed unsuited by drop in trip when fourth of 10 in handicap at Navan (5f) 15 days ago. Not out of things back up to 6f.

Still a maiden but he got back on track with solid third of 11 in maiden at Dundalk (7f) 5 days ago. Needs to back it up.

Debut Sligo 6f maiden winner but he hasn't progressed, last of 9 in handicap at Cork (1m) 57 days ago.
Timeform Verdict
I BID YOU AJOU came good around this time 12 months ago and signalled he is ready to strike again when an unlucky-in-running seventh in a big-field handicap at the Curragh last time so looks the way to go. In-form Little Empire could emerge as the main danger now the assessor has relented, although Apache Outlaw has slipped to an attractive mark and commands plenty of respect. Mint Man and Inishfallen complete the shortlist in this wide-open sprint.
Betting Forecast
20/1 Dragon Of Malta (Ire), 497/1 Mickey The Steel, 8/1 Mercurial (Ire), 10/1 Aurora Nova (Ire), 14/1 Apache Outlaw (Ire), 15/2 Inishfallen (Ire), 13/2 Mint Man, 28/1 Altimara (Ire), 15/2 I Bid You Ajou (Fr), 22/1 Alfred Tennyson (Ire), 18/1 Unauthorized (Ire), 22/1 Ribble Emperor (Ire), 50/1 Felix Somary (Ire)
