9st 9lb |
Former Flying Five winner reached a peak rating of 114 before losing his form in the latter half of 2024; missed all of last season; return in a C&D Listed contest last time was not totally devoid of promise when 4.75l behind Mission Central; may build on that. |

Former Flying Five winner landed this race in 2023 and 2024; lost form in the second half of 2024 and missed all of last season; entitled to need this run after such a long layoff. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Rated 108 in his prime so has dropped a long way, but won Scurry Handicap (beating Fort Vega and Back Down Under) here last summer and last month's Naas third (three of today's rivals behind) was a good effort; can't rule out. |

27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 205y |

Bounced back to form from out of the blue to win the Scurry at the Curragh last July; has generally struggled since and well beaten in both starts this season at the Curragh; needs a revival. |

Two-time course winner including a Group 3 in 2023 and the Scurry handicap last year off 2lb higher; well beaten on seasonal return here (6f, heavy) behind Dmaniac; should strip fitter now but probably best over a bit further these days. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
A tremendous campaigner over the years with two Stewards' Cups to his name; in and out this season and only twelfth in the Ayr Gold Cup three weeks ago, but he has clear possibilities on his fast-finishing second to stablemate Northern Ticker over C&D in August; 1lb lower today. |
16/1 |
|
8 (16) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Two years since his last win but this dual Stewards' Cup winner is more realistically treated these days and he gave his younger stablemate Northern Ticker a race at York last month; not so good at Doncaster last week and he will do well to win this race in his fourth attempt (seventh in 2021, runner-up in 2022 and sixth last year). |
16/1 |
|
3 (2) |
14th Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 111y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Hasn't won for just over two years and whether the extra half-furlong suits remains to be seen, but he kept on well for a head second of 20 at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago and that performance bodes well for a prominent showing today; versatile ground-wise. |

9st 12lb |
Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |

Just five runs last year but won a Listed race at Naas over this trip in October before a disappointing run in France, even allowing for a less than smooth passage; can run well if back to his best. |
8/1 |

5 (11) |
11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 205y |
9st 7lb |
Has become hard to win with since landing a Group 3 as a 3yo but it was a good run in a deep Ascot handicap last time (5f, good to soft) and returning to further should suit (second in this 12 months ago); solid chance. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition. |
12/1 |

9th 1 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days. |

1st 3 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |

Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |

Finished last season in excellent form with C&D win in the Bold Lad off 91 and good second in Navan Listed; probably needed last month's Naas comeback run, more expected of here and rider's claim a positive. |
9/1 |

9th 2 (9) |

Finished last season in excellent form with a 50-1 win in the Bold Lad at the Curragh (6f, yielding) and a 1.75l second in a Listed race here (6f, yielding); off since October and has needed his comeback run in the past two seasons. |

Listed winner in Ireland as a 2yo who regressed sharply for Jamie Osborne; been off for four four months since well held over C&D and the change of scenery will need to have done the trick. |

9st 5lb |
Thereabouts in 6f Group races in France and Ireland last summer, including on good to firm, and has shed a few pounds with his mark since; hampered on last two AW starts and not discounted back on turf in first-time cheekpieces for yard that won this with 22-1 shot Saint Lawrence (also runs today) in 2023. |

Two 7f wins last spring, including Listed; made a promising seasonal/handicap debut when third at Lingfield in February (6f) but he was disappointing over C&D last month, awkward leaving the stalls but unable to make up any ground in the straight; dropped another 2lb; more appealing over further. |
