9st 8lb |
Second to a clear winner in Killarney maiden last October and similar level of form on latest when chasing home a progressive sort (winner again since) over this trip in Leopardstown handicap last month; both those efforts on much softer ground, untried on ground this quick but big player if handling it, although draw a negative. |

2nd 9 (13) |
11th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 35y |
9st 5lb |
Best run in six efforts came in Killarney maiden (1m, soft) in October when 5.5l to Lady Lilac; mild signs of promise in two runs this term, latest at Gowran Park 22 days ago when beaten 3.25l into fourth over 7f on good to yielding in a claimer; dropped 4lb and Colin Keane takes over for yard in good form; could be on a nice mark and each-way chance. |

Lightly raced maiden's best run came when runner-up in 1m Killarney maiden on testing ground last October; didn't feature on Limerick comeback run last month and looks to have a bit to do on ratings. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 12lb |
Seven-time winner; hold up sort has run respectably in three of his last four starts; stayed on well for fourth behind Lady Arwen at Ballinrobe latest; placed at this meeting over 7f in 2022; ground versatile and could go well granted luck in running. |

4th 1 (5) |
20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 135y |

Seven career wins and probably not as dependent on soft ground as he once was; consistent this season without really threatening to win and likely to run his race again. |

Largely consistent veteran whose seven wins range in trips from 7f to 1m4f, most recently at lower limit at the Curragh last autumn; recent Leopardstown fourth (Green Kite second) was a seasonal-best but this ground possibly on the quick side. |

9st 6lb |
In-form filly arrives in search of a hat-trick after knuckling down to win claimers at Bellewstown (1m, good) and Killarney (1m, good); this longer trip is a query, but should be on the premises again if she stays (stamina in pedigree but ran poorly over 10.5f before). |

Six-time winner, including here as 2yo; ran well here twice last summer (runner-up in this race); out of form this term before eyecatching sixth over C&D last week after a slow start, two places behind Loingseoir; each-way possibilities. |

11th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 35y |

Two wins last year on good ground, including at Roscommon off 80; bounced back to form with encouraging third at same track last month before backing that up under positive ride at Down Royal 13 days ago when 1.5l second to Faoladh; definitely capable off this mark but soft ground a concern. |

Best run in three maidens came at Navan (6f, soft) in October when beaten 7l into sixth by Michael's Well; down the field at the Curragh 53 days ago; bred to appreciate step up in trip and opening mark looks reasonable. |
