Irish raider with nine wins on his CV (four gained on Polytrack); comes here after three good efforts in big-field turf handicaps last month (5f-6f) and ought to make his presence felt. |

C&D winner sent off single figure odds on last two starts at Naas (both 5f, good) and ran respectably; is very well handicapped on best form and won't be inconvenienced by softer ground if the rain arrives; can't discount. |

Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 82 in March; best effort for some time when today's headgear tried in finishing never nearer fourth over C&D 17 days ago in testing conditions; 2lb lower now and Keane takes over; has to be respected. |

3rd Mar 2024 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Listed-placed for Joseph O'Brien; struggled for this yard in Britain last year and he's not been at his best over sprint trips in Bahrain this winter; has won over C&D but looks high in the weights still. |
33/1 |
|
15th 3 (17) |
6th Oct 2023 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Useful (runner-up in 6f Listed race) when trained in Ireland by Joseph O'Brien, but sent off 66-1 and well held in two runs since a big-money transfer to his current yard; needs to turn over a new leaf. |
50/1 |

9st 8lb |
Last turf win came at Naas nearly two years ago (off 63); standout run this term when C&D third (neck off second-placed Jasmine Affanalis) in May, most recently didn't seem to get home at Bellewstown; Colin Keane booking takes the eye. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 211y |
9st 9lb |
Last turf win came at Naas in August 2024 (7f, good); signs he could capitalise on sliding mark when close third at Killarney (1m, good) in May but disappointing favourite at Listowel next time; failed to see out 1m1f on soft at Leopardstown on latest but definite player at his best. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
As usual, he was held up before breezing through the field to win the Balmoral Handicap over 1m here last October (soft; 4lb lower); needs to put this season's performances behind him but arrives here fresh and rain would heighten interest. |
12/1 |

8th 2 (3) |
1st Aug 2025 Good 1m 1f 11y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
Held up; excellent 2024 in handicaps on varied ground culminated in his Balmoral triumph at Ascot (1m, soft) in October; never having raced beyond 1m asks a question but he saw it out well that day and has a form chance if putting this month's reappearance (18-1 in Listed race) well behind him. |
7/1 |
|
8th 2 (7) |
12th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Shaped well in a few top handicaps prior to deservedly landing a big pot in the Balmoral at Ascot (1m, soft) last October; whether his hold-up style lends itself to a Listed race around here remains to be seen but he's a big player on form if ready to roll after nine months off. |

5th 5 (3) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

In fine form this season at the Curragh; third on seasonal reappearance (6f, heavy); 1.25l second behind Bodhi Bear on penultimate (5f, sft-hvy); won over 5f (soft) there on latest and the runner up has run well in Listed company since; 5lb rise fair and should be bang there again if the forecast rain materialises. |
