6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Five handicap wins, including over 1m1f at this venue; has made the frame in two C&D Listed races this season; needs to bounce back from a Curragh failure that saw him finish last of six, with Cowardofthecounty in third. |

Progressive gelding has taken form to new level this term with excellent Listed efforts at Leopardstown on last two starts; had Alcantor 2l behind when a 1.25l runner-up on latest (1m, good) and should uphold that form; has winning course form in the book and leading claims. |

31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ended his 2yo campaign with AW Listed win and has proved consistent this term, most recently best of the near-side runners in the Jersey at Royal Ascot; holds solid claims in another change of headgear, albeit is comfortably held by Talk Of New York on Heron Stakes running. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Consistent gelding whose third to the high-class Talk Of New York in Sandown Listed race (1m, good) last time was just the latest in a string of creditable efforts; should be fine back at 7f but he's beginning to look exposed and the first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces) needs to give him a lift. |

Reasonably consistent, including at Listed/Group level, until running poorly in the Royal Hunt Cup most recently; perhaps best watched as he needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat. |

Successful at Haydock in sole handicap attempt then ran well behind a notable rival in Group 3 at same venue; no further progress in three runs since but he is proving reasonably consistent and returns to handicap level with Toby Moore taking off a useful 7lb; could go well. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Landed the Victoria Cup over C&D in 2022 and hasn't had the smoothest of passages in two attempts in this contest (finished 11th that year and tenth in 2023); losing run is mounting up, however, and he doesn't look particularly solid on his form for current stable. |

Listed winner at two when based in Britain and ran okay on occasions when highly tried as a 3yo; below best on yard debut (trip too far) at Gowran but bounced back at same venue earlier this month when making all over a mile; drop back in trip no problem, should go well. |

Smart 2yo mostly relegated to pacemaking duties this season, although penultimate start in Curragh Group 2 was decent; last in the Sussex on Wednesday having done his job, and is the complete opposite of one who has been laid out for this. |
12/1 |

29th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Ended last season with a couple of notable wins but broadly hasn't been in the same form this term and is currently well down the pecking order at Ballydoyle, as his rating reflects; bottom of this pack on said figures and is possibly in here to help with pacemaking duties for Gstaad. |

Good form last season, winning C&D premier handicap (good) and second in the Scurry Handicap at the Curragh; matched that effort when beaten a neck in the same venue's Habitat Handicap on seasonal return in May; solid third over C&D before losing out to Suzie Songs in a three-runner Naas contest; has never run in a stakes race, worth a shot. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Better than ever last summer, winning Cork premier handicap (7f, good) and career-best second in Scurry Handicap at the Curragh; matched that effort when beaten just a neck by Headmaster in the Habitat Handicap back at the Curragh on seasonal return in May and following month fared best of those racing far side when third in repeat Cork bid; in fine form but stiff enough task conceding weight to a pair of less-exposed 3yo fillies. |

Showed promise in making the frame in two starts last autumn; beaten favourite when second at Naas on seasonal debut; eased up late for third at Gowran; rated 83 before chasing home the long odds-on Bamako Beach at Fairyhouse; did not need to improve much from that to win at Galway; more needed now. |

Formerly trained by Jessica Harrington in Ireland where he won a Galway maiden; sold to join current yard for 33,000gns last month and made an immediate impact by winning over C&D (good); has been raised 7lb and has an outside draw but may still have more to offer. |

The last of his four wins came in a C&D premier handicap in June 2024; some cracking runs in defeat since, including a close sixth in this race last year and runner-up over C&D in June; not as good behind Kalir last time. |

Last win came in a valuable C&D handicap in June 2024 off 88; best run for almost a year came in the same event here last time in first-time blinkers (retained), with 3l back to Playin Cool; 5lb rise for that is perhaps a tad harsh but winner ran well twice at Galway; firmly in the mix. |

Consistent sort who won Dundalk maiden (1m, AW) last month on his seventh start before close third on handicap debut at Galway (8.5f, yielding); he kicked clear turning for home last time and today's slightly shorter trip could be a positive; cheekpieces replace blinkers; each-way possibilities. |

Several placings before off the mark in Dundalk AW maiden over this trip earlier in the month under a positive ride, not needing to improve on previous turf efforts which included Leopardstown third (beaten 1l) to Johnny Soda whom he now meets on 8lb better terms; contender from a good draw. |

All three wins have come at Leopardstown, including last time over 1m1f (good) when a comfortable victor after being allowed to dictate the pace; 5lb rise for that seems fair enough and he's in good form but must win away from his preferred track. |
