3rd Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Gained the most recent of two 2m AW wins in February, back from a break with poor run at Tramore last month; 0-15 hurdling, though did finish second at Listowel last season off this mark. |

9st 7lb |
Gained the most recent of two 2m AW wins in February; turf credentials are relatively weak, placed only once from ten attempts; however, suited by a sound surface. |
8/1 |

Sole win from 37 starts (15 over hurdles) came over C&D in December 2024 from 4lb lower; ran well in a Listowel handicap hurdle on stable debut but lesser efforts last two times, including at this venue last time when tenth (1m4f). |

Four-time Flat winner has also won over hurdles; won over 1m7f at Leopardstown in July but has been below that level since off this mark and has to rebound. |

9st 8lb |
Likes a stamina test, last three wins at around this trip including at Leopardstown last month off 71; hampered start when never counting at same venue 9 days ago but that run can be forgiven and remains a player. |

Won two staying handicaps last year and added another one over C&D (gd-yld) two weeks ago; a 6lb rise makes things harder but another good run likely on the cards. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Made it 3-6 since joining Daragh Bourke when winning at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) ten days ago, when she idled in front and was value for more than the 0.75l winning margin; went close over 16.2f at Newcastle previously; she might still be ahead of the handicapper up 3lb for last time; a first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (8) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and has run well on all three starts since, runner-up over 1m3f and 2m on last two occasions; latest was quite a rare run in cheekpieces; should be bang there. |
7/2 |

2nd 4 (4) |
31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and ran another sound race when neck second at Carlisle last time (1m3f); fair efforts on previous tries at 2m; one to consider. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |
10st 8lb |
Three wins apiece over hurdles and on the Flat; best recent hurdle run came over 3m at this venue last month; would have a squeak if returning to that form. |
12/1 |

13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three handicap hurdles on the bounce at 2m5f-2m7f on good ground; generally struggled since and his latest two runs have been fairly dismal; returns to chasing for the first time since 2024, when he didn't set things alight in three beginners'. |
12/1 |

10th 2 |
4th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 210y |
11st 11lb |
Completed a hat-trick of handicap hurdle wins during a short time frame last August; went up an aggregate 23lb for victories at Wexford, Ballinrobe and Tramore; has tended to struggle since then; fair fourth at Bellewstown early last month, out of the money at Downpatrick and last week at Galway. |

10st 11lb |
Bumper winner; second of 16 at Cork (18.5f, good to yielding) off 93 on handicap debut in August for Denis Cullen; poor in two subsequent hurdle runs over further and no impact on debut for this yard at Dundalk last month; cheekpieces now tried and this ground will suit; check the market. |
