Four wins here, three of them over this trip, and may step up on recent turf efforts which were probably with a view to getting him fit for AW action. |

9st 7lb |
No wins from 21 races; sent off the 9-2 favourite at Gowran for stable debut under today's rider but weakened inside the final furlong to finish sixth of 16; perhaps capable of more with that run under his belt considering his strength in the market that day. |

AW winner in Ireland back in January, his sole win in 27 starts; however, two solid runs over 1m/1m2f (soft) since joining this yard and he should be fine under these conditions. |

Won twice in Ireland, both wins gained this summer over a bit further; however, only seventh of nine on yard debut here (1m2f) and not overly appealing on the back of that. |
20/1 |

4th 8 (12) |
10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |

Third runner for yard; won a claimer for Paul Flynn at Ballinrobe (9.5f, good to yielding) in July before following up on debut for this yard in Gowran handicap (9.5f, good to firm); two fair efforts since but she might get tapped for toe over this trip. |

Ran respectably in a couple of handicaps earlier this season; several less encouraging displays before winning a claimer for Paul Flynn at Ballinrobe; won a 0-60 handicap here on debut for Ado McGuinness; longer trip may have stretched her stamina at Roscommon two weeks ago. |

Won a maiden here in 2024 but well beaten in a handicap here last year; 10lb lower now, however, and huge swing in weights may enable him to turn the tables on Reponse Finale who was 0.75l ahead of him at Dundalk 26 days ago; player. |
