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. |

9st 12lb |
Sole turf win came over this course in 2025 but has a better record on AW, with two wins earlier this year; has to rebound from two below-par efforts. |
16/1 |

8th 9 (5) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Back-to-back C&D wins in the spring, and close second here in July; best turf effort of the season when close third to Darius Dark over 1m4f at the Curragh; looks held by Pavilion End on Leopardstown running last month; however, back on his favoured surface now with Sadhbh Tormey's claim back in play. |

Back-to-back Dundalk wins in the spring, and close second at Dundalk last month; previously put up his best turf effort of the season when close third to Darius Dark over 1m4f at the Curragh; steps up in grade. |

Low-rated Flat maiden, placed on AW; jumping lacked fluency on her only juvenile hurdle attempt. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 194y |
9st 4lb |
Sole placing in 14 starts came on the AW; 0-12 on turf on the Flat, though last week's Navan effort offered some degree of promise; 2lb lower and not one to rule out. |

Sole placing in 13 starts came on the AW; 0-11 on turf on the Flat and heavy defeat behind a few of these rivals at Sligo on latest; hard to make a case for her. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 30y |
10st 1lb |
Won off 4lb lower on seasonal return at Ballinrobe in May (9.5f, gd-yld); has mostly run well in defeat since but he may need a bit more respite from the handicapper. |
10/1 |
|
6th 11 (15) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won on seasonal return at Ballinrobe in May (9.5f, gd-yld); raised 7lb for that and has run well enough without really threatening to win in three starts since; probably in the handicapper's grip for now. |
10/1 |

Twice placed over 10.5f here in November; off the mark over 1m1f at Ballinrobe and fair runs since; hasn't gone this far before but is by a St Leger winner. |

11st 2lb |
Versatile and durable sort, winner of eight of his 67 races and placed 19 times; fair recent form in races of this type; placed on the Flat here last month, no match for Rocky's Howya at Bellewstown before that. |
6/1 |

Versatile and durable sort; fair recent form in claiming hurdles; runner-up in division one of this contest 12 months ago and is now 5lb lower; stable in form; no reason why he won't run well. |

Forget his two recent turf runs as they were probably preps for this; useful record here with two wins over 10.5f and some good runs over this trip. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 37y |

Dual 1m2f AW winner was running consistently well on the surface last winter; reportedly didn't handle soft ground on turf return last month, improvement expected on this better ground. |
16/1 |

11th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 1f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Been running consistently well on the AW for over a year, landing two handicaps, latest in November off this mark; beaten favourite 104 days ago when 2.75l behind Daonethatgotaway over 1m4f; four turf runs have been poor and soft ground unlikely to suit; drawn wide. |

Won for the third time when scoring over 1m5f at Down Royal last time; 5lb rise for that probably fine but his best form has come on a sound surface. |
8/1 |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Came good for Natalia Lupini when bagging a Dundalk maiden (Polytrack, 10.5f) by a head in February; didn't beat a rival (heavy defeats) on his next two starts, however, and that was also the case on his stable debut at Redcar a fortnight ago; last time's visor makes way for blinkers and yard surely has higher hopes for Rubellite. |
25/1 |

9th 4 (1) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Won a Dundalk maiden (1m2f, AW) in February, but he's finished tailed off in two handicaps since; still lightly raced but he changed hands for £2,500 in July and has plenty to prove for new yard; been gelded and visor is added. |
20/1 |

11th 10 (5) |
12th Jul 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Famous colours and he won 10.5f maiden here in February, but that's weak form and he was lapped on handicap debut at Down Royal; steps up in trip and bred for it. |
