9st 8lb |
20-race maiden; in the frame in five of his six course outings including over 1m4f last month; poor run at the Curragh since but respected back here for a yard that get winners in claimers. |

Is frustratingly still a maiden after 19 starts but has run well plenty of times including second over 1m4f at Dundalk last time; this trip suits better; disappointing previous time with cheekpieces; best on good ground. |

9st 3lb |
12-race maiden; runner-up in a Roscommon claimer in August and bounced back from two lesser runs when a distant third over 2m at Thurles last week; return to this trip is fine and not out of this back down at his preferred sort of trip. |
5/1 |

9th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 66y |

Maiden has run well a number of times, notably when second in a Roscommon claimer in August but looks out of his depth here on official figures; new headgear combination tried. |

Maiden has run well a number of times, notably when second in a Roscommon claimer last month; outspeeded late in a 7f Laytown handicap last time but this test will suit better. |

Did not seem to stay the extended 1m4f on handicap debut at Galway; still relatively unexposed, this being only his fifth start. |

28th Jul 2025 Good 1m 4f 84y |
9st 0lb |
Handicap debutant's best maiden run a 5.25l fifth of 11 at Fairyhouse (1m2f, good); bred to do better at some stage and yard has a fine record in this race but pedigree suggests that this trip may stretch his stamina; others make more appeal. |

Fairyhouse effort a step up on debut run on testing ground; seemingly the lesser-fancied of the Harrington pair here though on jockey bookings. |

11st 7lb |
Fair on the Flat when based in Ireland but unplaced all five hurdling starts there; made low-key stable debut (on the Flat) last month and has quite a bit more to prove than some of these. |

2nd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo who brings a long losing spell to this debut for new yard, as it's three years since his sole win; finished second in a Dundalk claimer (1m4f) when last seen. |

29th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Losing run goes back to a turf success in April 2023; below form when sixth in a claimer at Roscommon in August; better when taking the same place at this venue 12 days ago. |

Sole success came in a Roscommon claimer in August (10.5f, good); heavy ground may not have been ideal on debut for this yard on latest at Listowel but others make more appeal. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 55y |
9st 11lb |
Three seconds for William Haggas but had failed to make frame in six starts for Denis Hogan before dropping in grade to take a good ground Roscommon claimer over an extended 1m2f in his final start for that outfit last month; can't be ruled out but others preferred. |
10/1 |

19th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 95y |

Three seconds for William Haggas, has failed to make the frame in Irish maidens/claimers; not disgraced in a 1m handicap at the Curragh last Saturday, may hold his own here. |

Filly has been slow to mature; some merit in her run in a claimer at Roscommon; makes stable and handicap debut; open to improvement. |
12/1 |

19th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 95y |

The least exposed runner here with only two runs behind her; improvement is feasible; good 7lb claimer booked; perhaps worth a market check. |

12th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Has 8l to find with Janes Harbour on their Ballinrobe clash but that was this filly's debut; now goes in cheekpieces with Colin Keane taking over. |

Eight-race maiden yet to show any signs of winning potential; well beaten behind a couple of these over 1m4f latest; mark sliding but others preferred. |

26th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Maiden has run respectably at times including at this track but isn't progressing; might have found the ground too soft last time; cheekpieces need to help. |
