11st 6lb |
Good form for Shane Nolan in 2024; missed 2025; better again early this year for this stable, backing up Down Royal win with decisive 2m2f Leopardstown success; was 2lb wrong in a strong handicap at Fairyhouse at Easter. |

10st 0lb |
In good form last year for Shane Nolan and better again this year in cheekpieces, backing up Down Royal success with decisive 2m2f Leopardstown success last month under hold-up tactics; up an aggregate of 19lb so more needed from 2lb out of handicap but in such good form has to be respected. |

11st 2lb |
In good form last year for Shane Nolan, winning off 98 at Limerick and running well in defeat off revised mark subsequently; seemed well suited by good ground at that stage, but proved she handles soft when a stylish winner at Down Royal six weeks ago in first-time cheekpieces; reversed previous Cork form with Catchabird. |

Three-time Flat winner is 0-20 over hurdles but some decent efforts this year, including C&D third to Splendid Choice on penultimate (good) off this mark; never featured after slow start at Limerick on latest when claimer-ridden; senior rider now takes over and one to consider. |

Three-time Flat winner is 0-19 over hurdles; went close off 109 over C&D (gd-yld) last May; didn't jump well when not beaten far off this mark at Wexford (2m1f, good) on latest; cheekpieces go back on; claims if jumping better. |

11st 12lb |
Bred to make a chaser and he got off the mark in this sphere in a Cork novice (17.5f, good) latest, although his jumping needs to improve; sheer determination got him up to win but he won't get away with such mistakes on his handicap debut over fences. |

Promise in bumpers last year on decent ground; much more testing conditions in first three hurdle runs last season possibly did not suit; close up in third when favourite at Down Royal in his second handicap; likely contender over this longer trip. |

Won at Galway (2m, good) in July 2024; downhill thereafter, ending time in Ireland competing on the Flat; third of five at Exeter (2m; 33-1) on second start for this trainer but tough to fancy on strength of his other two efforts. |

Hurdle/chase winner in Ireland but on a losing run now and, although he ran better when third of four finishers at Exeter recently than he had on his yard debut there, a few more pounds off his back wouldn't go amiss. |

12st 0lb |
Four wins over hurdles, the most recent coming in this race last year off 2lb lower on yielding to soft, his second win over C&D; out of depth on the Flat last time, but this is more suitable and acts on good ground; player. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 71y |

A winner of six races (four over hurdles and two on the level); however, a Flat rating of just 40 leaves him with heaps to find on these unfavourable terms. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |

Dual-purpose; 4-33 over hurdles; last won at Killarney off 4lb lower last July (20.5f, yld-sft); good ground is fine but lacks a run and overall record when fresh suggests he'll come on for this run. |
