30th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Scored at Fairyhouse (1m2f, yielding) in May off 66; handicapper took a dim view and raised him 13lb; has struggled off his revised mark in three starts since and assessor slow to relent; may be on a tough mark. |

Has returned from 260-day absence in the form of her life for new yard, making all for today's rider to win over this trip at both Naas and Down Royal (good) in blinkers; up an aggregate of 16lb but remains 7lb out of handicap in this much higher grade. |

10st 2lb |
Four-time AW winner; sole success on turf came in 2021; despite negatives attached to her turf record and a hefty burden, holds a definite chance on her second in a 22-runner handicap at Leopardstown 12 days ago. |

Four-time AW winner; sole success on turf came in 2021; ran on well over 7f at Naas latest, beaten just 2l; step up in trip a plus on that evidence and runs off the same mark; place chance. |

10st 0lb |
The latest of her five wins came over 1m4f at Roscommon in May; unseated early next time and 1m1.5f looked too short last time at Gowran; has to rebound. |

Won off 4lb lower last year; hinted at a return to form at Leopardstown on penultimate but jockey reported he stopped quickly back there on latest; may need a bit more help from the handicapper. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |

Won this off 4lb lower last season; ran on well for a close fourth here on latest over 1m2f; not the kindest of draws, but should be staying on at the finish. |

9st 6lb |
Yet to win after eight Flat starts but took a Down Royal maiden hurdle in May; solid effort over 1m4f at Galway last month (yielding to soft); two-day break possibly to blame when disappointed over hurdles back there last time; others appeal more. |
9/1 |

Yet to win on the Flat but took a Down Royal maiden hurdle in May; might have been unsuited by soft ground when poor in a Roscommon novice last time; solid fourth on the Flat here on Thursday. |

18th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 48y |
10st 0lb |
Both previous turf wins have come over 1m but landed a 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; eased 4lb for midfield finish at Galway last time and worth checking in the market. |
18/1 |

9th 10 (18) |
1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 8lb |
Both turf wins came over 1m but proved stamina for 1m4f when scoring at Dundalk in February; nice prep run for this at Navan over 1m2f and the step back up to this trip is a plus but he's got a tricky draw to overcome. |

One of three for yard; took a big climb in the ratings for a Gowran win; hung badly left when in rear in a handicap at Galway; well beaten in a claimer at Gowran recently. |

7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |

One of three for yard; shed the maiden tag in a 9.5f handicap here (good) off 59 on his penultimate start; soundly beaten off revised mark at Galway, though trip/ground not ideal there; drawn wide and trip may be on sharp side. |

Six-time AW winner in Britain; first turf success at Ballinrobe (9.5f, good) in May, quickening well to score by 2.5l; not in the same form the last twice and drop in trip needs to spark a bounce-back. |

Won over 1m2f (gd-fm) at Newmarket for Tom Clover when wearing a visor and that returns here; needs to rebound from a heavy defeat at Galway but soft ground not ideal there; these conditions more suitable and yard going well now; chance. |
16/1 |

Winner in UK over 1m2f and best run for this yard came over that trip at Dundalk; not as good over 1m4f at Tramore but can be sharper for that run and do better; non-runner in the 8.15 here on Tuesday. |

Ballinrobe 9.5f winner was no match for Rodeo Blues back there, but is 15lb better off here; well held when second to older rival over C&D last month; usually leads. |

3yo made all at Ballinrobe in May (9.5f, gd-yld); beaten off revised mark twice since and is 6lb wrong here (though that is negated by rider's claim); unproven over this far and needs to find more off this mark. |
