Both Flat wins at this trip, a Curragh maiden on good in July 2024 and a Roscommon handicap (soft) last October; back from a spell over jumps to contest two Flat handicaps at Galway; 3lb out of the handicap here, 10lb claimer aboard; others preferred. |

15th Aug 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Bounced back to form when gaining a first Flat win on his third run for this yard over C&D last month in first-time blinkers, successful by 10l; hefty 12lb hike for that but interesting if headgear continues to work; just second over hurdles here on Thursday. |

Won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 for John McConnell; came back to form in first-time blinkers to easily win on the Flat here over 1m4f last time; has to be respected back hurdling assuming the blinkers have the desired effect again. |

Has mixed it between Flat and hurdles effectively this year, winning on the level at Sligo and only worn down close home in 2m Galway handicap hurdle on Saturday; obvious chance if turning out quickly. |

22nd Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 50y |
11st 12lb |
In fine form for local yard; won off 13lb lower over C&D (heavy) in November; career best off 103 when a 1.75l runner-up in a C&D Listed handicap hurdle in December, although form not working out so well; nudged up another 3lb but clearly loves it here and he's a huge player in this modest grade. |

Maiden was out of form when last sighted in January, pulling up in a Down Royal Novice; best watched on return to action unless the market speaks. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
11st 3lb |
Would have gone close to beating the useful Bowensfire at Limerick last January but for a last-flight fall; has failed to make any progress since then; as a result, he has plenty to prove at this stage; trainer won a similar race at Fairyhouse last week. |

Dual-purpose maiden improved hugely on previous form when runner-up in a Downpatrick 2m6f maiden hurdle; needs to show that wasn't a fluke but can be involved again if repeating that. |

11st 0lb |
Sole win came off 9lb lower at Wexford (2m1f, gd-yld) back in May; not beaten that far in three starts since, including when a 7l fourth of 11 at Cork on latest; needs to find a bit more off current mark. |
8/1 |

Flat winner won a 2m1f Wexford handicap hurdle in May (good-to-yielding) and okay runs twice since off 9lb higher; can be keen. |

21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
8st 11lb |
With Jack Cleary taking off 5lb, he's on the same mark as when beating Obscenity at Roscommon in May (1m4f, yielding); gelded after that and has rather lost his way, in a maiden hurdle and two 1m4f handicaps. |
33/1 |

14th 2 (11) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |

Went up 6lb for breakthrough Flat win over C&D in May (yielding), beating subsequent winner Obscenity by 2 3/4l; moderate run in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown; down the field at Galway, well held by Thyer on that evidence. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Proved progressive last year, scoring at Cork (18.5f, gd) in October either side of runner-up finishes; pulled up and fell early in two starts this year so needs to bounce back up in trip. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |

Progressive in the autumn; runner-up at Navan (2m3f, yielding) before gaining a first win in emphatic fashion at Cork (2m3f, good); good effort at Sligo next time when runner-up; reported to have mucus when pulled up on seasonal return at Cork last time; chance at her best. |

10st 3lb |
Off the mark at 28th attempt when landing 2m3f Kilbeggan handicap last month, allowed to slip the field and win unchallenged; no such leeway at Galway since, weakening between final two flights; third over C&D last month, so trip of no concern. |

Off the mark at 28th attempt when landing 2m3f Kilbeggan handicap last month, allowed to slip the field and win unchallenged; 9lb rise okay on the face of it, but not sure if he'll back that up and 3lb out of handicap here. |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 48y |
11st 0lb |
More highly rated over fences than hurdles, winning 2m2f Sligo novice last autumn and touched off in 2m handicaps at Tramore and Down Royal; returned from eight-month absence when never counting in 2m handicap hurdle here last month, expected to come on for that. |
10/1 |

10th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 109y |

Potentially well handicapped relative to her best chase form; good form in that sphere last October when backing up a Sligo win with seconds at Tramore and Down Royal; might need the run, her first since out of her depth in a Grade 2 mares' chase at Cork last December; 13lb lower than her chase mark |
