Five wins for Johnny Murtagh; went close for this yard at the Curragh in April (7f, soft); below best in four starts since then; has tumbled in the ratings but will make limited appeal until showing signs of a revival. |

Confirmed promise shown in maidens last year when scoring on belated seasonal return and stable debut at Leopardstown nine days ago (7f, gd-yld); up 4lb and drops in trip; possibly wouldn't want to see much rain. |

Has held his form well in recent months; two wins in 2026 have brought his career tally to 11; backed up a narrow Curragh success (Sherekiya, third) with another solid display in taking third at Navan 13 days ago; has won and twice finished second for 10lb claimer Cillian Rowan. |

0-7 on turf but has races in her; placed on handicap debut and seasonal return at Naas off 5lb higher (7f, soft); below best twice since, however, and faster ground a concern here (unraced on quicker than yielding). |

In good fettle before a disappointing effort off revised mark at Naas; form of his Limerick win was boosted by the runner-up winning at Cork; not discounted and has won over this trip. |

Narrowly denied over 7f at both Fairyhouse and Limerick in early summer; only faded late over same trip at Gowran last week after forcing it so this drop in trip seems plausible. |

Third reserve; in excellent form this season, winning two of his three starts; ran on well to score off 8lb lower at Roscommon latest (7.5f, good); this is a tougher race and he'll need a career best to follow up. |

AW winner in Britain posted a solid effort on Irish and stable debut at the Curragh in June but hasn't gone on from that; down the field over C&D on latest and same mark now; visor worn that day discarded; needs more. |

8th 11 (2) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 184y |

Ordinary form in Britain, just sole 1m AW win to his name; seasonal/stable debut fourth over 1m4f at the Curragh, in this grade, was very good (travelled well and stuck on well) and quite likely he 'bounced' eight days later at Carlisle; has tried different headgear and visor now goes; trainer seems adept at improving recruits. |

Solid placed efforts in maidens last year for Johnny Murtagh; standout run this term when second in 7f Fairyhouse handicap (not clear run), possibly too keen in first-time cheekpieces at same venue last week and headgear now discarded and dropped in trip. |

Three good runs since joining this yard, including on latest at the Curragh (6f, yielding) last week when beaten 1.25l into second of 19; drop back to 5f a plus on that evidence but nudged up another 3lb so a bit more needed. |

Maiden has shaped promisingly in first two runs for this yard; beaten 2.25l at Cork (5f, good) and 4.25l when fourth of 19 at Naas (5f, good); same mark here and cheekpieces go on; considered but softer ground would be a query. |

Won off 7lb lower on her last start over 6f (good) at Fairyhouse in June; narrowly denied off 2lb higher back at Fairyhouse in July (7f, good) but below best last twice and forecast rain is a concern. |

Followed a good run against a much-improved rival at Down Royal by winning over 6f at Fairyhouse; another good run at the same venue over 7f; lost a shoe at Killarney last time, but has gone up 11lb in total and will need a career best effort here. |
