29th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Enjoyed a good spell last summer, winning at Leopardstown (1m, good) off 1lb lower; fair efforts in defeat this year, including third at Leopardstown a fortnight ago; likely to be in the shake-up. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 195y |

Winless since rattling off a treble in 2023; however, her two recent runs over 1m suggest she is close to striking again, with a close second at Leopardstown and 1.5l sixth at Galway last time; probably doesn't want it too soft; new headgear on. |

9st 8lb |
Galway winner for Dermot Weld last summer; first win for new stable (third attempt) when comfortably seeing off 12 rivals at Newbury last week (1m, good) and he escapes a penalty for that apprentice-race success; of obvious interest dropped into a Class 6. |
5/2 |

1st 10 (7) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Has failed to shine in two runs this season for new yard but is interesting assuming a turnaround occurs; well treated on peak Irish form, namely a win off 2lb higher at the 2025 Galway festival (8.3f, soft). |

Three-time turf winner who appreciates an ease in the ground; 3lb above his last success in September at Roscommon (7.5f, soft); positive return to turf at Bellewstown (1m, soft) two weeks ago when fourth of 14 following a poor effort at Dundalk prior; no surprise to see him feature. |

Three-time turf winner who appreciates an ease in the ground; 5lb above his last success in September at Roscommon (7.5f, soft) but has run well here before and had a recent run at Dundalk so he'll be fit; each-way shout. |

Four-time winner (one at this venue); very comfortable winner of a Roscommon handicap in September off 59 (7.5f, soft); not at the same level off higher mark since; weakened into tenth over 10.5f here latest; this trip looks more suitable but has never won from a mark this high. |

Now with his fifth different trainer; gained an overdue breakthrough at Dundalk on his 26th start; perhaps unlucky not to finish closer at Limerick last month on stable debut, since he almost lost his footing on the final bend; placed 11 times, capable of reaching the money in this grade. |

Promising debut before some lesser efforts but took a step forward when beaten half a length in a Cork handicap last month on yard debut; wasn't as good in 5f Curragh handicap 13 days ago and will need a career best back in maiden company. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Promise on sole 2yo start but three runs this term have been poor, too keen and didn't get home over 1m on latest in hood/tongue-tie combination (now left off); changed yards since and improvement possible now dropped to minimum trip for first time although mark may still be on the high side. |
