9st 4lb |
Won 7f Leopardstown maiden at two; respectable effort on comeback in 3yo handicap at this venue, weakening late over 7f; won with plenty to spare over a little further than this when apprentice-ridden at Listowel; up 7lb and no claim this time, may be vulnerable. |

Ended last season with a maiden win at Leopardstown; opening handicap mark seems fair; however, he is not guaranteed to uphold Leopardstown form with Zenford who was making his debut then and has run twice this season. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 1lb |
Plenty of ability but very hard to win with; sole Irish success came at the Curragh in April 2024; later that year, twice second to Merisi Diamond over C&D; again ran well here on seasonal debut and when second at Listowel later in May; possibly needed the run here last time. |

First reserve; has run well in both starts this season; beaten 2.25l when runner up at Listowel when last seen in May; has gone well fresh before and C&D form figures read 224; chance if gets a run. |

Over two years since latest of only two wins; second over 6f at the Curragh in October and ran well over 7.5f on return, but poor strike-rate overall; prefers it soft but handles good. |

Second reserve; generally reliable sort knows how to win and has been in decent form this term, placing in five of his seven starts; more than capable off this mark but may need softer ground to get his head back in front. |

3rd 13 (7) |
18th Jun 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 45y |
9st 9lb |
Has been running well in defeat this term, including a second of 23 over this trip at the Curragh in March; wasn't beaten far when seventh of 21 at Navan 11 days ago (5f); acts on good but best on soft/heavy. |
12/1 |

Has a decent record at this track, two wins and three seconds from nine visits; solid form this term except a moderate Curragh run over 7f; place chance now after last Sunday's third at Listowel; acts on good but best on soft or heavy. |

Three-time Fairyhouse winner has been running well this season but yet to get his head in front, most recently faring best of those racing stands' side when chasing home a rapid improver at Naas last month; 0-5 on AW but close second over C&D in April when last seen here; definite player with rider's claim a positive. |

Four-time winner (three at this trip) on good ground; poor form shown in her last three outings but drops into this lower grade for the first time since April 2025, and that resulted in a victory, so don't rule her out. |

Four wins have all been on fast tracks, including last year at Bellewstown (twice) and Down Royal over 5f; standout run this term at former venue when third (5f, soft); never counted in two most recent runs at Navan over 6f; opposable. |

Just denied by Jon Riggens over C&D in June, more recently made all over 7f at Gowran; five days later awkward start and soon beaten in a similar event under 7lb penalty; capable 5lb claimer now booked so don't rule out. |

Carries a 7lb penalty due to his C&D victory five days ago; that win came following a good third at the Galway festival (7f, yielding) but he's not the most consistent overall, so not guaranteed to reproduce his winning form. |

Regained the winning thread over C&D two weeks ago when wearing this headgear combination for the first time; has gone up 6lb but rider's 7lb claim negates that; should give another good account. |

AW winner got off the mark on turf at Naas this time last year (6f, good to yielding) off 5lb lower; ran his best race this term when a 2l third of ten back at Naas last time (6f, good); new headgear combination tried; hasn't run too badly at this track in the past. |

Only one win from 27 starts and that was on AW for Brian Meehan in 2023; fair AW form early this year and showed that a turf win could be within his range when second to Dancing Saxon at Limerick last time; form given a big boost by the winner in a Listed race; handicap mark reduced by a stone over the past 12 months; may come good now from low draw.. |
