9st 3lb |
Best run for this yard was when runner-up over 1m1f in a Leopardstown handicap last summer (soft); lost form after that and was well beaten on his seasonal return last month at Leopardstown; visor goes on and has been given a chance at the weightings but you'd like to see more positive recent form. |

Best run for this yard came at this venue last season (1m1f, soft); not as good in three subsequent outings and pulled up when last seen at Clonmel in September (blood at both nostrils); best watched on return. |

9st 2lb |
Landed back-to-back 1m claimers at Bellewstown and Killarney in July when beating a few of these; couldn't do three in a row at Ballinrobe when third; didn't transfer that form to handicaps at Galway last time; dangerous in these races though; drawn wide. |

First reserve; went close in Down Royal handicap in May (7f, soft) off 2lb lower; in excellent form in claimers, winning at Bellewstown and Killarney then second at Ballinrobe; poorly drawn but can't discount in current form. |

9st 6lb |
Won a maiden over C&D last summer; back to form with a front-running second of seven in a fillies' handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm; tongue tied first time) nine days ago; on a dangerous mark and one of two solid contenders for David O'Meara. |

Won a Thirsk maiden last June (7f, good); good third over this C&D next time (good to firm) but has been very disappointing on her last four starts (two of them this season); customary hood is absent and first-time tongue-tie goes on; has plenty to prove. |

Recorded her sole success in this race last season; also ran well when third in a 26-runner contest here late last season; uneven form this term; stable has hit a good patch of form this week; worth considering. |

Maiden has shown his best form on the AW; some decent turf runs this term but will have to improve a fair bit on last two efforts to win on these terms. |

Maiden has done most of his racing on the AW, runner-up three times; fair turf form this term and excuses at Roscommon on latest (raced freely and saddle slipped); needs to find extra but could go well. |

Has held form well since sent handicapping; won off 6lb lower over 6f here in December; beaten 0.5l off this mark over 1m here in March; solid efforts over 7f and 8.5f at Fairyhouse the last twice; place claims at the very least. |

Winner this year over 1m at Dundalk and 1m2f at Fairyhouse in June; good form in defeat over 1m1f at Leopardstown, beaten a neck in a 22-runner contest; fair run over a longer trip last time, this may be closer to his best distance. |

Winner this year over shorter at Dundalk and Fairyhouse and better again over 1m1f at Leopardstown six days ago when beaten a neck off this mark in 22-runner contest, having had every chance; not at best on only previous attempt at this longer trip so bit to prove. |

Just one placed effort from eight starts last season; tailed off at the Curragh on his return and down the field at Roscommon two months ago; not a big price on the second occasion, so perhaps capable of better. |

9st 2lb |
Showed little this year but, considering she lost two shoes in running, was not beaten far in a 1m1f handicap at Gowran two weeks ago; local stable always to be feared at this venue and market moves should be watched. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |

Sole win came at Laytown last year; yet to make his presence felt this term; will need to show some sign of revival in advance of a likely return to the beach where he is trained. |
