8th 9 (3) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |
9st 7lb |
Won over 1m3f at Down Royal last year and over an extended 1m1f at Gowran in June; unplaced on next two starts; came good again when scoring at the Galway festival on yielding-to-soft; could feature again despite being 7lb higher. |
6/1 |

9st 10lb |
Won over 1m3f at Down Royal last year and 9.5f at Gowran last month; not bad runs twice since but needs more off this mark. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have come right-handed on yielding ground, over 1m3f last year and under a brilliant ride from the champion jockey over 9.5f at Gowran last month; has run well this way round, too; handled quick ground okay when ridden to get 1m4f (upped to this grade) at the Curragh last time; cheekpieces swapped for blinkers. |

9st 1lb |
Two-time winner on easy ground, including on latest at Gowran (9.5f, yielding); won over 1m3f (yielding) at Down Royal last season; 3lb rise for latest success seems reasonable and worth a try at this trip but could probably do with some rain. |

12th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 100y |
9st 8lb |
Landed 1m3f Down Royal handicap in September before disappointing favourite on the AW next time but had excuses; returned with encouraging fourth at Navan (1m2f, gd) 48 days ago, travelled well; set to come on for that and big player. |
7/1 |
