27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Dual-purpose veteran and a multiple winner in both codes; won off 3lb lower at Sligo in May (1m6f, yld-sft); well beaten over hurdles at Galway on latest but is 9lb lower than when a 2.5l third over C&D last summer so not written off. |

Admirable veteran gained a fourth turf win on the Flat at Sligo in May; has come up short off revised mark since; first run over hurdles since unseating at Cork in March last year for Sneezy Foster; others more likely. |

1st Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 77y |
9st 11lb |
Grand dual-purpose mare was second in a division of this last year, and went on to win readily (in a visor) on heavy at Galway; some good runs in defeat this year and headgear back on; notable jockey booking too. |
7/1 |
|
7th 9 |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 208y |
10st 6lb |
Won three times under both codes last year (twice at Sligo); best hurdles run this year when a clear second in 2m3f Downpatrick mares' handicap in June (good); solid effort when third at Sligo (2m5f) on latest, but she's better over shorter than this. |
8/1 |

3rd 7 |
6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 168y |

Won here under both codes last year, including 2m2f mares' handicap hurdle off 81; best hurdle run this year when a clear second in 2m3f Downpatrick mares handicap in June (good), poor run on the Flat at Tramore since; unproven over this far. |

6th 5 (15) |
4th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 194y |
9st 6lb |
Sole win came in this race last year off this mark; eyecatching efforts on both recent starts, at Sligo and when coming from way back to finish fourth behind Miss Australie at Navan last week; looks primed for a bold repeat bid. |
5/1 |

Sole win came off 1lb lower at Down Royal (1m5f, good) last September; close third behind Anightaway and Eastern Wind at Sligo on latest and his good run over 1m5f here in June wasn't his first solid effort at this track (fourth in this last year); chance. |

14th 7 |
24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 4lb |
Dual hurdles winner for James Nash, the latest in April last year at Down Royal (2m4f, good) off 2lb higher; signed off with a moderate effort in a Clonmel claiming hurdle for his former stable in May; stable debut for new yard on Flat at Bellewstown was nothing to shout about either. |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 48y |
10st 6lb |
Veteran whose 11 career wins under all codes include this race in 2024; recent 2m Tramore handicap chase third his best run for a while, but more needed here in a deeper race. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
16th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 140y |
11st 6lb |
Veteran who is 12-115 under all codes; five-time course winner, four times over jumps; dual C&D winner, latest 12 months ago off 7lb higher; much below best last two vists here but dangerous to completely write off in a winnable race at a venue he loves. |
9/1 |
|
6th 8 (11) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 3lb |
114-race veteran, winner of 11 races; best known as a four-time course jumps winner; also C&D winner; most recent success came over fences here last October; well below best on his last three visits, years may be catching up, but premature to write off. |

With the exception of a decent effort on debut, her maiden form was moderate; well beaten on handicap debut over 1m6f at Sligo last time; cheekpieces replace the tongue tie worn that day. |

Modest dual-purpose performer has done little Flat racing of late; returned from nearly two years off in October and ran well when fourth in long-distance chase last month, but easy to look elsewhere. |

Six-time winner for Charlie Johnston and best form over this trip; poor on first two runs for this yard at big prices; better than bare result when beaten over 5l at Gowran last May; yard's first runner of the year won on Tuesday; no surprise were he to go well after a break with leading claimer aboard. |
