10st 0lb |
Five-time winner at the track at 5f-8f, including 4-runner minor contest last winter; out of form on turf in first half of season and last month's AW return leaves him with a fair bit to find with some of these. |

10st 4lb |
Struggling on turf this season but won his last start over C&D in February and, overall, he has won five times at this venue over a variety of trips; second behind Eclairage in this last season; a return to form would come as no surprise but David Egan prefers Ipanema Queen. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win on turf in the 2023 Norfolk Stakes; has won five conditions races at Dundalk since, the most recent over 5f in February; has struggled since then; drop in class after contesting a Listed race and C&D Group 2 in May; was 20lb higher at his peak; still an entire. |

9st 8lb |
Won four for Clive Cox, including the Group 2 Temple Stakes in 2024; first win since came here last month in 5f handicap (first-time blinkers) coming off strong pace to reel in long-time leader late on (Collective Power, Fox In Flight and Valiant Force behind); 5lb higher now but still on an okay mark. |

9st 3lb |
Won four for Clive Cox, including the Group 2 Temple Stakes at Haydock in 2024, his last victory; yet to hit those heights for this yard and has been soundly beaten on his last three starts; 0-2 on the AW but did run well here behind Valiant Force in February; blinkers replace cheekpieces worn last time. |

9st 9lb |
High-class form for Clive Cox included a Group 2 win at Haydock in 2024; has failed to win since; last four runs for this stable not encouraging; mark sliding but needs to rediscover best; cheekpieces used for first time in Ireland. |

9st 7lb |
Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her return from the AW to finish a close third in Fairyhouse conditions event (6f, good) in June; not at same level later in month in Curragh Listed and good bit to find with Fregada on that run. |

9st 2lb |
Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her seasonal return in a median auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good) when just 0.5l behind the winner Tango Flare; rated just 92, however, so looks to be out of her depth in this grade (failed to trouble the judge in three previous runs in stakes company). |

3rd 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner including three on turf; won off 87 at Navan last August (6f, yielding); well-beaten when last seen at Dundalk in February; has gone well fresh before so worth a market check on return. |

Yet to win for this yard, but handicapper slow enough to relent; fair fourth to Gleneagle Bay at Cork in June; first time here, which will be an eye-opener for him. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
9st 6lb |
Smart turf form at up to 7f in Bahrain for George Scott early last year; some good runs this year, second to Sir Les Patterson on the AW (6f) in February and close fourth at Chester in May (7.5f, good); no luck in running in the Habitat here (won by Headmaster), again behind that rival at Cork. |

Smart turf form at up to 7f in Bahrain for George Scott early last year; some good runs for current yard this year, second to Sir Les Patterson on the AW (6f) in February and close fourth at Chester in May (7.5f, good); caught the eye when running on late after not getting a clear run in the Habitat at the Curragh (6f, good); could go close. |
