Three-time winner over hurdles and has a bit of chasing experience, but rated 99 in this sphere and won't be good enough here. |

Last of three wins for Philip Rothwell came at Downpatrick last summer (2m3f); didn't land a blow but not entirely disgraced on yard debut in competitive handicap at Galway festival but good bit more likely required now. |

Ran well when third of six at Uttoxeter (2m, good) on latest visit to Britain in July but was well beaten when falling in a Downpatrick chase last week and is too inconsistent to rely upon. |

Landed a handicap chase and a handicap hurdle in the space of eight days in May; out of sorts after that until running okay in a handicap chase at Sligo on Wednesday; has a chance. |

Gained back-to-back wins in May, easily over fences at Limerick (2m7f) and hurdles at Tramore (2m6f) on good ground; well held last twice in Kilbeggan handicap chases, however, so needs to bounce back. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 90y |
11st 12lb |
Two time winner over hurdles; last win came at Fairyhouse last October for James Barrett off 109 (2m, good); a pair of okay runs over hurdles this summer but needs to bounce back from a poor run on the Flat at Ballinrobe last month; contender if she does so. |

Dual-purpose mare with three wins on the Flat; last win in this sphere came two years ago at the Curragh off a 5lb higher mark (1m6f, good); her two runs over hurdles for her new trainer this term have been okay; needs to come on again. |

3rd 1 |
15th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 2f 185y |

Dual-purpose mare has won eight races across both codes; made a pleasing enough start for this yard when third of six at Ballinrobe on first run for over six months; should come on for that but she remains 6lb above her last win and she won't want it too soft. |

Dual hurdle winner with the form to have a big say on these terms and he was in contention when falling in Kendancer's claimer at Limerick 12 days ago; notoriously headstrong and always comes with an element of risk. |

Sole win in 24 starts (including jumps_ came in a heavy-ground 1m3f maiden at Killarney in 2023; placed over hurdles before a fair fifth on the Flat at the Curragh on his penultimate start; remote tenth at Tipperary 11 days ago. |

Is 3-30 over hurdles with his most recent win coming at Ballinrobe in July off a mark of 96 (2m1f, good); beaten a long way off a 4lb higher mark back at that track last time (2m, good); could bounce back here. |

Won over fences at Kilbeggan before a good second in a 2m6f handicap hurdle at the Galway festival; the race might have come too soon when pulled up at that track four days later; poor on the Flat at Down Royal on next start and down the field in a chase at Listowel last time |
