9st 5lb |
Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition. |

Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days. |

Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln. |

Looked set for a big season after his Listed win at Cork but it hasn't materialised; upset in stalls when soundly beaten again upped to 6f at Naas latest; however, he has C&D form figures of 132, including a head second in this last year, so the return to this venue offers hope of a revival. |

Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit. |

Globetrotter who has had mixed fortunes across his career but he was back on song when third of 22 to Dark Thirty at York (6f, good) this month on his second stable start; he can be in the mix if confirming that promise. |

Two US Listed wins in 2024 and he twice went close on the St Moritz ice this February; having been detached he kept on for sixth of 11 on his recent stable debut at Goodwood (5f, good); may not be a forlorn hope back up to 6f. |

Finished last season in excellent form with C&D win in the Bold Lad off 91 and good second in Navan Listed; probably needed last month's Naas comeback run, more expected of here and rider's claim a positive. |

Finished last season in excellent form with a 50-1 win in the Bold Lad at the Curragh (6f, yielding) and a 1.75l second in a Listed race here (6f, yielding); off since October and has needed his comeback run in the past two seasons. |

9st 7lb |
Grabbed his first handicap at odds of 50-1 at the Curragh a month ago, repelling Big Gossey (6f, yielding); no good thing to confirm those placings with the second who has a pull in the weights; furthermore, there are others to worry about. |

Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |

Just five runs last year but won a Listed race at Naas over this trip in October before a disappointing run in France, even allowing for a less than smooth passage; can run well if back to his best. |

Has become hard to win with since landing a Group 3 as a 3yo but it was a good run in a deep Ascot handicap last time (5f, good to soft) and returning to further should suit (second in this 12 months ago); solid chance. |

Won a 6f Curragh handicap on debut for this stable in August; came up short in stakes company since, though wasn't beaten far staying on for fourth in a 6f Naas Listed latest; 0-2 on AW, drawn wide and not sure the drop to 5f will suit. |

Progressed well for Ralph Beckett, holding her own at Group/Listed level; impressed in a 6f Curragh handicap on stable debut but below that level since when soft ground was no excuse; good chance of staging a revival in an easier race here. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |

Ran some fine races in defeat at 6f-7f in stakes company last season for Ralph Beckett; back to winning ways on debut for this yard off 101 in a C&D handicap on seasonal reappearance in August; too keen stepped back up to 7f in a Doncaster Group 3 latest; capable of better if she settles. |

Hold-up performer who advanced her form with her sixth to Beautiful Diamond in an Ayr Listed event last September (blinkered first time); over 4l to find with that rival though and she looks up against it; cheekpieces the headgear of choice today. |
