Won this race last year but has been mostly below form this year over hurdles and fences; is still 3lb above last year's winning mark so has to return to best. |

Five career wins include this race in 2024 (off 101) and 2m6f handicap chase at this fixture last year; light campaign this year, pick being Roscommon claiming hurdle second, most recently beaten when unseating two out in 3m Galway handicap hurdle; has to be respected given 10yo's record here. |

11st 12lb |
Won at Bangor (2m7f, good) last month and another good run when second at Hexham (2m7f, good) last time; this front-runner can make another bold bid. |

2nd Oct 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Need not dictate to win but did enjoy having things mostly his own way in victory at Bangor latest (3m, good); 6lb rise to a career-high mark asks a stiff question, and rain might stir the pot further as he did not appreciate ground slower than good when last trying it a year ago. |

8th Sep 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 5 |

A fair 2m6f hurdles scorer for Eoin Doyle in Ireland in 2024; made a winning start for his current yard on the Flat at Thirsk in May and posted a good third back in this sphere at Worcester (2m4f) since; very much one to consider. |

Improving gelding has won two of his last three starts; scored off 89 at Kilbeggan over 24.5f and added another handicap hurdle off 95 at Wexford last week over 3m, both on good to yielding; up another 6lb and could be more to come but drop back in trip a concern. |

Eleven-race maiden is 0-4 in chases; his 3.25l third at Sligo (3m2f, good) won by Ballagh Star in October is a standout effort; 3lb lower now but he finished a long way behind at Wexford last time. |

Maiden posted decent runs on two of last three starts, at Tramore and Clonmel; off the same mark and yard is going well at present so can be involved with a repeat. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo who won Worcester maiden (2m, good) on stable debut in July and was respectable third of six from out of the weights in Perth handicap (2m, good) last month; effectively 4lb lower from correct mark here and promising conditional Lewis Sanuders claims a useful 7lb; could have a say. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Ordinary Flat winner in Ireland and was 0-21 there over jumps (including 12 defeats over fences); came good on yard debut in a maiden at Worcester (in none of the aids he sported for former connections) and could build on that; 3lb wrong at the weights. |

1-35 under all codes when based in Ireland, the win gained on the Flat in 2022; placed in a low-grade handicap chase this spring and the pick of his 2023 hurdling form gives him a good chance on these terms; interesting to see what Olly Murphy can do with him. |

Handicap debutante has shown ability in all three of her maiden hurdles, including one at this track (2m, yielding); outpaced and stayed on over 2m3f at Kilbeggan last time, shaping as though this sort of trip would suit; opening mark looks fair and has to be considered. |

Course winner is 2-24 over hurdles but no win since back to back victories in July 2021; yet to fire in six runs for Charles Coakley but one of his better efforts when beaten 10l in a handicap chase at Limerick last time; tongue tie and visor reached for again (pulled up last time he wore them); hard to fancy. |
