Winner of two of his five starts this season, rising an aggregate 20lb from a basement mark; gave another bright display when third at Fairyhouse yesterday and definitely respected if reappearing here. |

One of two for the yard; both wins have been at 7f; cut out most of the running when third at Down Royal (7f) last month; doesn't look particularly well treated back on the AW, though. |

Laytown winner in 2024 and got her head back in front on turf this year; unproven at this trip though and it was a low-key effort back at Laytown earlier this month. |

Dual winner here but lost his way a little bit in going up the handicap; mark is diminishing slowly and not without a chance on probably his favourite surface. |

30th Sep 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 110y |

Back-to-back C&D wins in the spring, and close second here in July; best turf effort of the season when close third to Darius Dark over 1m4f at the Curragh; looks held by Pavilion End on Leopardstown running last month; however, back on his favoured surface now with Sadhbh Tormey's claim back in play. |

On a long losing run but has run well from the front the last twice, most notably at Naas last time in a race he set up for closers; could be dangerous if allowed dictate but stall 16 is problematic. |

Almost landed a gamble over 1m at Gowran last season; put in good effort on AW after that; ran over an inadequate trip at Sligo in May, and not seen on the track since; second reserve. |

8st 10lb |
Donegal-trained prominent racer is modest maiden, but nearly landed a gamble over 1m at Gowran last summer and good effort on AW after; money for him on return when missed break, and jockey booking looks significant. |

Maiden after 20 starts but career-best effort was when runner-up over C&D last June, albeit on good ground; only fair efforts on AW of late; others are more likely; 2lb wrong. |
