11st 10lb |
Three-time AW winner rated 68 on the Flat; best turf runs came on easy ground on the level so was an encouraging first run over timber over C&D 13 days ago; could go closer with that under his belt, especially if there's rain. |

16th Oct 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
8st 12lb |
Won off 50 here in January (1m) and runner up over C&D off 63 in March but form has nosedived since; well held in 7f-1m handicaps here the last thrice and needs to rediscover best with hood tried last time discarded. |

8th 2 (15) |
25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

C&D winner was favourite here last week, but was too keen from a bad draw; same stall here, so Keane will have to be at his best. |

9th 2 (15) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Consistent here last winter; sole win was over this trip in January, placed six times in all either side of that, over 10.5f latterly; couple of 6f turf runs lately served their purpose, which was to get him back into this grade, and leading claimer knows him. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Three wins here over 7f/1m and plenty of placed form over 10.5f; with the blinkers refitted, had three of these behind when beaten just half a length here a week ago, coming home well from off the pace; good chance. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (4) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |

Three wins here over 7f/1m, but most recent placed form has been over 10.5f around here and this trip is sharp enough for him nowadays. |
9/1 |
|
8th 5 (3) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
10st 0lb |
Three wins here over 7f-1m but does stay this far and has multiple placed efforts over C&D; on a dangerous mark and a recent spin over hurdles at Wexford will have blown away any cobwebs; chance with rider taking off handy 7lb. |

Down the field on turf last time but had been running well here and should still be on a competitive mark; on the shortlist. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |

Having a good time of it of late on the AW, recording a third win there last month off 55; balance of turf form is on decent ground so could struggle in these conditions. |

Dual course winner (1m4f) during the winter; beaten only 1.5l over C&D off 54 last month before runner-up here over 1m4f on latest; looks sure to give his running once again; shortlisted. |

Won over 1m2f at Newmarket last summer for Tom Clover when wearing a visor; good run on the AW in March but well held on turf since, latest when visor re-applied; others look more likely. |

9th 3 (7) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |

Won over 1m2f (gd-fm) at Newmarket for Tom Clover when wearing a visor and that returns here; needs to rebound from a heavy defeat at Galway but soft ground not ideal there; these conditions more suitable and yard going well now; chance. |

9st 11lb |
In wonderful form here at the moment, gained his first win since 2022 when breaking his AW duck over C&D in February; up 6lb and absolutely bolted up last time, with Storm Eric 5.5l back in second; up 10lb more and entering a higher grade, but decent draw and he's flying. |

1st 5 (2) |

Two wins on turf; has been running well here in recent months and was rewarded with victory three weeks ago; has gone up 6lb for this rematch with third-placed Eighty Eight and Storm Eric. |

Gained a first turf win at Bellewstown on penultimate; well held off revised mark at Roscommon latest but has won six times here (including two C&D claimers) so could be dangerous back at this venue. |

1st 13 (6) |

Second runner for yard; won at Ayr (1m1f, good to firm) in May; some consistent efforts since and found his way back to the winner's enclosure at Navan (1m, good) eight days ago; respected on these terms but trip may be too short (first try at 6f). |

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. |

Turf record is poor (0-26) but more effective on AW (2-25); this year's form hasn't offered much but is 8lb below last winning mark so can't be totally discounted. |

17th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
11st 5lb |
Had a question mark over the return to 1m at Salisbury recently and his third there was a remote one; had been in good form for this yard previously, winning in good style under William Pearman at Chepstow (1m2f) in June and then over 1m4f at Catterick; all three AW wins have come on Polytrack but he ran respectably in one previous C&D attempt; solid chance. |

5th 5 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop and he made it 2-3 for current yard when landing novice amateurs' race at Catterick (1m4f, good to firm) two weeks ago; up another 2lb but remains well treated on his old form, and four of his wins have come over this trip; leading contender. |
