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. |

Smart sort won Group 3 at Naas last year but well held twice afterwards on softer ground; encouraging seasonal return when 2l second to Moss Tucker in Naas Listed over 5f; more expected back at 6f here but has a bit to do. |

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. |
12/1 |

3rd 10 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 205y |
8st 12lb |
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. |

Five AW wins and two turf wins have been at Navan over 5f; last year's highlight was fine third in Rockingham here; absent since October and may just need this. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
5-13 on AW including this race in 2021; respectable effort when fourth in the Group 2 Sapphire Stakes at the Curragh in July (5f, good); a neck behind Black Forza when fourth over C&D latest (4lb better off now); needs more stepped back up in grade. |
14/1 |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |

Five-time course winner including a C&D Group 3; beaten 3.25l off 99 on last AW start in July; decent runs in defeat since including a 3.25l fourth in the Sapphire Stakes; a bit to find on the figures but should run a solid race. |

9st 9lb |
Long time since he won on turf and isn't as good now but remains consistent; returns from three months off but he can go well fresh; down to a career-low mark but he'd have preferred plenty of rain. |

6th 1 (4) |
12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Ran well in a 0-90 at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in December and was only beaten around 2l when fifth of seven there nine days ago; now 5lb below his last winning mark but this isn't guaranteed to be run to suit his hold-up style. |
4/1 |

5th 1 (3) |
3rd Feb 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Conditions suit and he ran well for third in a stronger race over C&D in late December; not so good at Newcastle two weeks ago but he's still a key player dropped into a Class 4. |

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 |

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

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. |
10/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 9lb |
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. |

The last of her three wins was in this race 12 months ago when 7lb lower; has mostly raced in Listed events since then and ran as well as she was entitled to the last time at Tipperary; fair shout. |
