23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Course regular (8-35) who is now at the veteran stage; no faulting his two runner-up efforts over 1m4f/2m here this year; always behind in valuable 1m2f Lingfield contest at Easter; solid claims back at his favoured venue. |

Dundalk regular (8-35) who is now at the veteran stage; no faulting his two runner-up efforts over 1m4f/2m this year, but he may be vulnerable to younger legs back down in trip. |

Veteran is an eight-time course winner at 7f-1m4f; narrowly denied over 1m4f in a conditions race here a week ago; is 6lb below last win so feasibly handicapped but stepping into unknown territory over this far; chance if he stays. |

Dual Flat winner returns to this sphere for the first time since a midfield finish at Laytown in September (7f); must bounce back from a moderate run over fences at Wexford last time. |

Useful hurdler won a valuable prize at Galway last year; ran well at Fairyhouse on the first of two chase starts last autumn; one to consider on return and the market can guide as to readiness. |

9st 0lb |
Five-time AW winner is 0-11 on turf but has run well in defeat; excellent efforts last twice at Leopardstown (a neck behind Cloud Seeker) and here, both over 1m2f on good; this is his optimum trip and he holds leading claims. |
10/1 |

4th 13 (2) |
24th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Five-time Dundalk winner with the last four wins coming over 1m4f; cracking run behind Cloud Seeker at Leopardstown (1m2f) earlier this month; up 1lb but may have more to give for his new yard and not ruled out, despite ideally needing a bit further. |

9st 11lb |
Ended a long losing sequence with a 10.5f Cork win last month under this rider (good to yielding) off 5lb lower; didn't appear to appreciate drop to 7f back at Cork last time when staying on for seventh (short head behind Dark Viper); others more likely. |

24th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 100y |
9st 1lb |
Seven-time winner, last win at Dundalk in February 2024 off 3lb higher; some good efforts last year, including over this trip on the AW, and creditable run in the circumstances (slowly away) at the Curragh on latest under today's rider; one to consider. |

Four-time winner over shorter trips and only just denied over 2m at Thurles on final start last season; recent hurdle run should have put him straight and not one to rule out. |

Only had two runs over hurdles, last time winning a maiden on good ground at Tramore (first-time hood); good and bad on the Flat since then; lacks jumping experience for a race of this nature. |

Won four handicaps in a row for Andy Slattery during a 2022 campaign that ended with a decent effort in finishing fourth of 18 in a Naas Listed race; no show in a pair of handicaps for this trainer early in the year; tried in a tongue-tie here after a six-month absence. |

Won four handicaps in a row for Andy Slattery during a 2022 campaign that ended with a decent effort in finishing fourth of 18 in a Naas Listed race; mostly campaigned in stakes races last year and did not quite make the grade; failed to make an impression back in handicap company at Naas on stable debut; remains 10lb above her last winning mark. |

9st 4lb |
Multiple winner on the Dundalk AW; outran odds of 80-1 when a 2.5l fourth at Wolverhampton (8.6f) but he did benefit from a good position from stall 1 and he's out in 12 this time; others preferred. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 3 |

7-28 on the Dundalk AW, with his latest win this January and that's his clear highlight this winter; the last year suggests that others will be a bit better handicapped. |
16/1 |

10th 9 (6) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Seven wins here include this race last year (beating Final Voyage) and last month off 82 under a positive ride (beating Brewing) over 7f; 4lb rise okay and one for the shortlist. |
