Won at Newbury (1m, good) in May on third start for this yard and followed up when unpenalised at Yarmouth (1m, good) five days later; runner-up off this 6lb higher mark at Goodwood (1m1f, good to soft) last time, when outstayed, and he could play a leading role back down to 1m. |

9st 7lb |
Enjoyed soft ground last year, runner-up over 1m at Galway, went one better on heavy at Listowel; below best this season until finding her form again when second over C&D in June; winner Thatwilldso has franked the form with Galway second and Sligo win; longer trip here should be fine and ground-versatile. |

9st 3lb |
Won handicaps over 7f and 1m on soft ground last year; this season hasn't gone to plan, but was fair fourth over C&D in May and third at Limerick in June; on a good mark if he can recapture form. |

Did well to gain third win when powering home to get up by a neck at Galway (1m4f, yielding) 20 days ago; up 5lb but this trip could suit on that evidence. |

1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 6lb |
Gained second turf win at Roscommon in May (10.5f, yielding) off 4lb lower; has come up short twice since off revised mark but ran well off 1lb higher at this meeting last year over 8.5f so not dismissed stepped up in trip in first-time blinkers. |

9st 3lb |
No win on turf since September 2024; has run well in defeat in good handicaps this season, including fourth to Ribee in Irish Lincoln; also second to stablemate Jagged Edge at Naas; below-par last time in a Curragh race dominated by Pierre Royal and Booyea; drawn low. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 6y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Got up in the final strides over 5f here (good to firm) three weeks ago on his fourth start for this yard; he could have more to offer for this stable, especially back up in trip with his Irish wins having come at 7.5f/7f; respected up 4lb for last time. |
100/30 |

10st 0lb |
Short-headed on stable/seasonal debut at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in April; excuses at Newmarket (7f, good) next time and he returned to form when fourth of 14 at Thirsk (6f, good); one to consider back down in grade. |
6/1 |

4th 11 (7) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Well beaten at Newmarket last month (7f, good; has won at that trip in the past) but he failed to settle and didn't look at home on the track; prior to that he kept on strongly to go very close at Musselburgh (5f, soft) on his stable debut and he remains one to be interested in. |

Belatedly off the mark in a classified race over the extended 1m3f at Yarmouth (good to firm) in July; better form when third off this mark in a 1m6f handicap there 12 days ago and that gives him a shout. |

Course winner; has been busy this year; fit from AW when winning at the Curragh (1m, heavy) in March; has largely remained in good form since, given a forceful ride at Roscommon (10.5f) on latest when finishing second; can go well dropped 1lb. |

Dual winner at around 1m early in the year, latterly off 1lb lower, who's been this far only once (C&D last backend), when well held; offered more last time but stamina remains a worry. |

Returned from a wind operation in December with a C&D success in February; scored over 1m at Southwell in April too when just 2lb lower; not so good on his next three starts but this is an ease in grade and he can't be discounted. |

10st 2lb |
Often front-runner who won at Leicester (7f, good) in April and over this C&D (good to firm) last month; bit below his best at Chepstow 17 days ago but soft ground may have been against him (also lost a shoe). |

In fine form since returned to turf this spring, winning at Leicester (7f, good) in April and at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) ten days ago; up another 3lb but this gutsy front-runner is a likely player once more. |
