10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
10st 3lb |
Consistent on the AW last winter, landing 10.5f handicap; returned to turf after summer break with three solid runs, a beaten favourite at Navan eight days ago; entitled to respect on first try over 6f, but Keane jumps ship to ride Spirit Of Eagles. |
6/1 |

5th 8 (12) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
9st 7lb |
Consistent on the AW over the winter, landing handicap over 10.5f; returned to turf after summer break with two solid runs last month, hanging right and not clear run when third at Gowran (9.5f) and only faded late when 3l fifth of 17 over 1m at Cork; Colin Keane takes over from 5lb claimer here. |

14th Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Consistent on the AW over the winter and spring, landing handicap over 10.5f in January; whether he's as effective on turf is questionable given he hasn't troubled the judge in eight starts on it; beaten 3l when third of 16 over 9.5f at Gowran on Wednesday. |

24-race maiden but has placed form in handicaps, notably at Roscommon in June (1m4f, soft); poor form of late, however, and 13lb out of handicap here. |

Has won over hurdles, fences and twice on the AW; ran second in a 1m4f AW classified race last month but flopped next time at Wolverhampton; his slow-ground form in Ireland was forgettable. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 1f 0y |

Has been in good form this season, winning twice and finishing in the first three in eight of his last nine starts; should be suited by the extra furlong here after 1m Killarney second. |

20th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Has made the frame in four of his last six starts but now on a two-year losing sequence; beaten around 8l in fourth at Roscommon; allowance should be made for interference suffered under two furlongs down. |

11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |

Last win was over C&D two years ago; lot lower in the ratings now, with good reason, albeit made the frame in winter AW handicaps won by subsequent improvers. |

Won over 1m4f here a year ago; form has been uneven since, good run over 1m4f in December on penultimate start; failed to build on that over this trip the following month. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 77y |

Sole win came on AW; creditable effort on good to firm at Ayr before lesser run at Dundalk last Friday; unproven on this sort of ground and has a poor draw; cheekpieces. |

Three-time turf winner is 0-10 on the AW and rated just 34; okay handicap run at Clonmel on penultimate but very hard to fancy at these weights. |

15th Oct 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Has won three races in a 16-race campaign since January; has been a little too high in the ratings since a Roscommon win in May; ran poorly off her lower AW mark last month. |

18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Three wins this year; bounced back to form on latest at the Curragh (1m, good) when close fourth in blanket finish; 1lb lower now and rates as a player if she copes with 6f for the first time. |

12th May 2025 Good 0m 7f 111y |

Won on good and the AW when trained in Britain; added a third career success a month ago at Dundalk where she went off pretty quick in the new blinkers and just held on (80-1); whether this will pan out so favourably is questionable. |

Verdict
Not too many appeal, but SARMIENTO POWER remains of interest back in trip, the 4yo’s C&D second two starts back having been franked since by the third home. At opposite ends of the handicap, Thompson Gunner and Sporting Aclaim look likely dangers, while Someone’s Wish has to be respected back from chasing. Nibras Rainbow has stamina concerns.
