6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Regressive maiden in Ireland (5f-1m) who ran well off this mark at York last July; makes his AW debut for a new yard back from an absence and would want to see some market confidence. |
8/1 |

Off the mark at the third attempt when battling on gamely to win a Navan maiden but was turned over when 11-8 over C&D last time (Snapdragon second); progressive previously and may resume progress. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Now a 17-race maiden but several good placed efforts, including Navan second (winner has won again since), most recently here a week ago when strong-finishing fourth over 6f, having not had a clear run; this trip her limit, should go well with a clear run and Billy Lee now takes over. |
11/2 |

4th 9 (6) |
1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |
8st 13lb |
0-16 but placed in three of her four runs this year; close third over 6f at the Curragh in May (winner won premier handicap last weekend); one place closer at Navan last time when headed in the final strides (5f, good); up 3lb but she's knocking on the door of her first win. |
9/2 |

2nd 12 (3) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 6lb |
15-race maiden, placed five times; last month's Curragh third was an encouraging display in a 20-runner field; will not need to improve much to win a handicap of this standard. |
12/1 |
