14th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 10lb |
3-14 over hurdles; has only managed one win over fences but has often run well in defeat; has the ability to figure here but has never won beyond 19.5f and he's got stamina questions to answer over this far a trip. |

Dual bumper winner and a winning chaser; 3-13 over hurdles and rated 135; mark left unchanged after an odds-on win at Clonmel; smart sort but has never won a handicap. |

10st 9lb |
1-7 over fences; best run since his beginners' chase win at Down Royal (19.5f, good) last year came when a 3.75l third at Wexford in May (2m, gd-yld); disappointed in Summer Plate at Market Rasen latest; runner up in the QR handicap on the Flat here in 2024 so not totally discounted in new headgear combination. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Useful Flat and hurdles performer who has gone 0-5 over fences since a winning start in May 2025 and he'll need to run better than he did in a handicap chase at Ballinrobe last time; however, a case can be made off this mark on best form; versatile trip-wise from 2m to beyond 3m. |

Three-time winner over hurdles; not at her best over jumps in recent months; modest Flat form in only five attempts; apprentice looking for his first winner. |

Her three hurdle wins were all over 2m; not a bad chase run last time but has been mostly below form over hurdles this year so has to return to best. |

Three-time winner over hurdles, latest in October 2024; last two hurdle runs have been poor and was well-held 2lb higher in handicap chase at Roscommon in June; needs plenty more in first-time hood. |

Hurdle winner is a maiden after 24 starts on the Flat; beaten a long way in a chase last time and isn't easy to fancy with blinkers added. |

24th Jul 2025 Soft 1m 6f 17y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
His last win was in a maiden hurdle in Ireland two years ago but he's well handicapped on old Flat form and made an encouraging return for new yard when seventh of 20 in the Northumberland Plate (2m, AW); conditions should be fine on this drop back in trip and he's one to keep an eye on. |

28th Jun 2025 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Well held in 2022 in his sole AW race; has been running over hurdles and fences in Ireland, with no win since a maiden hurdle nearly two years ago; sold out of Gordon Elliott's for 9,000gns this February; there's no tongue-tie today for the first time in three years and last jumps season's blinkers/cheekpieces are also absent; peak Flat form and new trainer's record with recruits are something to clutch at, though. |
