9st 7lb |
Ran well in defeat three times in Listed company in 2025 before bagging a win at that level, the Ruby Stakes at Killarney (1m); was poor in testing ground behind Faiyum when last seen; has to be at her best on return to get involved. |

Second runner for yard; won a C&D maiden in 2024; gained a deserved Listed success at Killarney over 1m last time after some solid runs in defeat at that level; has run well over C&D but the forecast testing ground is a concern. |

9st 7lb |
Has won four races including a Navan Listed over this trip in June and the Group 3 Brownstown Stakes over 7f here the following month; was below form in the Group 2 Minstrel Stakes at the Curragh since; has loads to find in this grade. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Gained first win at stakes level when taking a Listed fillies' event at Navan last month (1m, good); found wanting in a deeper race over 1m here on Irish Derby weekend next time; resumed winning ways when landing a Group 3 at Leopardstown last time (7f, good), however, the proximity of an 83-rated rival (1l) to her takes the sheen off the form a bit. |

Decent overall form since fourth in this race 12 months ago; gained first win at stakes level when taking a Listed fillies' event at Navan last month; seemed to appreciate the step up to 1m that day, but was found wanting in a deeper race at the Curragh on Irish Derby weekend. |

Twice a winner in France (one on soft) at 1m2f and extended 1m3f; 0-11 this term for current yard but some solid efforts including latest when strong-finishing third in Naas fillies Listed a week ago over this trip (yielding); this looks a better race so more required. |

Twice a winner in France (one on soft) at 1m2f and extended 1m3f; 0-10 this term for current yard, appearing a bit one-paced back at today's trip last two times on heavy; looks to have a bit to find. |

One of three for yard; rated 94 and shaped nicely when a 3.25l third of 9 in a listed race at Killarney (1m, good) last month; won on soft ground in France and is preferred by McMonagle so has to be considered for yard that won this in 2021 and 2022. |

Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf fourth last year; has not matched that form this term but run well in defeat, notably Killarney Listed second (soft); not at that level in similar contest on latest however and bit to prove now but major claims if back to her best. |

Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf fourth last year; has not matched that form this term but has continued to run well in defeat, including second C&D fillies Listed last month on soft; may not have handled the track at Galway last time but entitled to be in the mix on overall form. |

Juvenile career ended on a high when fourth in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Del Mar (1m, firm); has not matched that form but has continued to run well in defeat; a four-time runner-up (three Group 3s and a Listed); high draw is a concern, but otherwise has plenty going for her. |

Last of five wins was in 2023; not the force he was, though has run well at times; fair third of eight in a Killarney handicap last month but well beaten in a premier Galway handicap last time (1m1f, yielding); others preferred. |

Last of five wins was in 2023 when he ran well in a Group 3 at Leopardstown and a Listed contest at Killarney; not the force he was, though he has run well from time to time, including when sixth of 14 at 80-1 in this race last year; fair third at Killarney last time; valuable 5lb claimed, could go well at a decent price. |

Latest of five wins was in the 2023 renewal of this event, after which he ran well in a Group 3 at Leopardstown and a Listed contest over C&D; not the same force nowadays and has come down a good bit in the ratings; was still capable of good form last year; not at his best on AW in the spring and back from a break here. |
