25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, one over C&D; beaten a head in this race on heavy going in 2022; produced a rather disappointing show in Ascot Group 3 three weeks ago but had Listed wins over Military Academy and Mount Atlas earlier this term and holds a major chance if returning to form. |

4th Oct 2025 Good 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s at 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including this race in 2022; also won 1m4f Listed races on last three outings, including in a good scrap involving Military Academy at Goodwood in June and when that rival disappointed at Chester three weeks ago; all of his turf starts in the last six years have been on softer than good; back up to Group 3 but with leading form claims again and a tremendous attitude. |

9yo who's won a hatful of Group 3s over 1m4f-1m6f in his long and distinguished career, including two Ormondes over the extended 1m5f here; also won 1m4f Listed races at the Curragh (yielding) last November and Goodwood (soft; by a neck from Military Academy at level weights) this June, which were his last two outings; all of his turf starts in the last six years have been on softer than good, so rain may be needed. |

24th Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Extremely reliable over the last two seasons, including for two Group 3 wins over 1m4f and one at 1m6f; also showed her form in the 1m2f Group 1 Pretty Polly on penultimate start, albeit 3l behind Stay Alert; unraced on firmer than good; should not be far away. |

22nd Jul 2023 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Three-time Group 3 winner; gained the latest of those at Cork last month and as good as ever when fourth in the Group 1 Pretty Polly here three weeks ago; very best form is over shorter trips on quicker ground but she's consistent and hard to rule out. |
4/1 |

Five wins last season, including two at Group 3 level; improvement sustained in Group 1 races, notably when just denied in Prix Jean Romanet at Deauville; good fifth in Qipco Fillies & Mares at Ascot, having forced the pace; made winning return in Group 3 event at Cork just over a fortnight ago; seemed to idle; should be better for the run. |

11st 5lb |
Group 1-winning Flat performer got off the mark at Punchestown on hurdling debut over this trip; ran creditably, though didn't jump fluently, in Mares' Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham over 2m; this trip will suit better. |

16th Mar 2023 Soft 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
High-class Flat stayer with Group 1 honours on the board and the recent rain is a blessing; however, has left it late to go hurdling and will need to jump with greater conviction than at Punchestown (2m4f, soft) where joined on the line by Ladybank; drop to 2m is a further cause for concern. |

Dual-purpose veteran has won 11 of his 39 starts under Rules but he's shown virtually nothing since a Listed Chester win on the Flat in September 2023; needs a revival. |

Capable of very useful form for Henry de Bromhead; however, record for current stable is far from convincing and latest defeat came in lower grade at Newcastle; hopes of revival are pinned on first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces worn the last twice). |

Won 1m maiden at Leopardstown as 2yo, when also placed in a Group 2, but he missed 2023 and has generally struggled in Britain this year; way down the weights and took minor honours at Carlisle (1m3f) and Chelmsford (1m6f; made most) on last two outings, but he needs to improve on that form. |
