13th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
9st 1lb |
Five wins for Joe Murphy, latest of them over 1m1f at Tipperary in October; big prices and has shown little in four starts for this yard; mark tumbling, but prefers it soft and will be of more interest when the rain returns. |

Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; yet to find his form for this stable; reduced rating now (4lb below his last winning mark) but needs to show some spark before becoming a betting proposition again. |

11st 2lb |
Three wins last spring and a career best to score at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) this March, albeit with half the hurdles omitted; ran creditably at Kelso (2m5f, good) 12 weeks ago but that fourth of six suggests that she needs to raise her game again. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won three times last spring (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft; including C&D) and followed a break by returning to winning ways with a career best at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, albeit with half the hurdles omitted; could still have more to offer and she's respected up 4lb. |

10st 11lb |
Won three times last spring (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft); ran okay when fourth of seven over C&D (good to soft) in November when last seen (lost a shoe); each-way claims if fully tuned up after a break. |

Outran odds of 125-1 when strong-finishing third in Gowran maiden over 7f; this looks a stronger race so good bit more likely required. |

9st 3lb |
Outran odds of 125-1 when third of 10 (beaten 3l) at Gowran last month; the extra furlong can only help given her pedigree and she has each-way claims. |

Really hit form in heavy ground, winning on consecutive days at Gowran earlier this month, readily carrying 7lb penalty second occasion to win with plenty in hand; up another 8lb but again has ground to suit and big player. |

Hold-up performer by necessity, really, as he can be tardy from the gates; C&D winner and just failed to get up here in April; only 1lb higher now and if they go hard, it will be a big help. |
