10st 11lb |
A six-time winner under rules (three over fences) with her last win coming in a Limerick mares' chase in May when odds-on (2m4f, good); recent form well below best, including C&D handicap last month; tongue-tie added here and hard to see her featuring. |

Dual AW winner; a long time since she ran on the Flat but has developed into a useful chaser and she'll handle the conditions. |

22nd May 2025 Good To Firm 2m 3f 176y |
11st 2lb |
Has been running in some hot contests including the Grade 2 mares' chase at Cheltenham when sent off at 100-1; her penultimate run at Cork when finishing third in a handicap chase was pleasing; this is more her level and she is a live contender. |

Four-time winner, latterly in 2023; continues to threaten now and again, as at Galway in August, but questionable whether he wants the ground this testing. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 15y |

Four-time winner for Andrew Slattery with last win coming in 2023; went close at Galway in August (1m4f, yielding) when Thatwilldoso won; posted another decent effort at Roscommon last time when third, behind Clear Quartz and Granite Bay; can go well again. |

The last of his four wins came in 2023; was just denied at Galway but was below that form at Chepstow five days later, both over this trip; 4lb higher but can run well if back to form. |

10st 0lb |
Campaigned mostly over hurdles since joining Adrian Keatley; was booked for second-place (at best) when taking a late fall at Southwell three weeks ago; switches back to the Flat in a newly applied visor; was previously effective on the AW at Dundalk, but difficult to know what to expect. |

7th Sep 2023 Good 1m 7f 182y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Won a Market Rasen handicap (2m, good) on his second run for this yard and was a close second there (soft) next time; his form cooled at Perth (2m4f) 19 days ago but he didn't seem to get home at that new trip and has leading form claims back in a 2m novice; respected. |

19th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
Very capable on the Flat and he won his last start in this sphere when landing a Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m3f, good) in April 2024; patchy form in nine starts on the Flat since and he refused to race on both outings when last seen in October; stable debut. |

19th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Tardy starts have been a common theme this season but he took even more drastic action at the Curragh last time when refusing to race; generally poor efforts this year but he finished a close third behind subsequent Ascot Stakes winner Ascending at Cork in May (1m4f, good); risky proposition. |
25/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y |

Tardy starts have been a recurring theme for this C&D winner (heavy); very slowly away again on latest at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); can't afford to miss the break badly at this trip; capable but risky; cheekpieces left off. |

Admirable mare will be having her 108th start under rules; 1-21 over fences but has run well at this venue on multiple occasions; lost form since shock win in a 2m listed handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse in March 2024; hard to fancy on recent showings but can't fully dismiss. |
