Respectable effort when a 3.5l third of 15 on latest at Gowran (9.5f, gd-fm); has weakened late when tried over further so stamina to prove up in trip. |

9st 8lb |
Won a division of this race in 2024 off 5lb higher; is 10lb lower than when last winning at Bellewstown (1m, good) in April of last year; slow starts have proved costly recently, could go close if gets away on level terms. |

On a long losing sequence since a 1m Bellewstown success in the early part of last season; unplaced on his last six starts, others seem much more likely. |

Back from a break to finish well behind Reponse Finale at Gowran last month (9.5f, gd-fm); ran well on only previous visit to this venue in 2022 off a much higher mark but out of form for some time so needs to revive. |

10st 2lb |
Has been in good form this season with wins at Killarney (1m, good) and Leopardstown (1m1f, good); placed in two of his last three starts; drops in class after a fine Curragh third when out of the handicap. |
8/1 |

3rd 12 (7) |
16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Has been in good form this summer with wins at both Killarney and Leopardstown over slightly shorter; decent run at Ballinrobe afterwards, but Gowran effort on Wednesday was disappointing; 3lb out of handicap here. |
10/1 |
|
9th 4 (11) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |
9st 12lb |
Has been highly dependable in recent months, two wins and three places from his last five starts; beat 21 rivals (including Medieval Night) at Leopardstown last month and has a good chance of reaching the money again following a Ballinrobe third that gives him an edge over Miss Crinshawn. |

9st 3lb |
Won at Gowran last August following several placed efforts during the summer; shaped as if she was returning to form over C&D in July, staying on well after being denied a clear run; disappointing when well backed to repeat last year's Gowran win; may bounce back. |
8/1 |

10th 14 (8) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |

Won this event last year, following several placed efforts during the summer; should be in peak form for her repeat bid after making a return to form at Navan a month ago, stayed on well after being denied a clear run; tongue-tie fitted for the first time, and Colin Keane aboard for the first time this season, underlining her chance. |

Dual-purpose mare whose last two wins have come over hurdles; ran respectably in that sphere when fourth in a 20-runner handicap at Galway a fortnight ago; second in two of her Flat outings this year but beaten 12l on the second occasion and appears held by Thegooseiscooked on running at Navan, |
