Nine-time winner, including five on turf; last won over 6f (good) here in May 2025; went close in a 21-runner 5f handicap at Naas three starts ago; faded late into fifth behind Sovereign Cry when favourite back at Naas last time. |

12th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
8st 8lb |
Six-time course winner, including twice over C&D, but his last four wins here have come over 6f; however, he did go close off this mark over C&D in May and should get a strong pace to aim at; not out of this. |
7/1 |

5th 6 (3) |

Six-time AW winner; was close up in third behind Clonmacash at Dundalk in April; second there on latest, reversing form with Clonmacash in the process; has the merit of being a C&D winner; definite chance for 10lb claimer who has made the frame in three of the five Irish races she has ridden in. |

Five of her six wins have come here; not easy to win with these days and on a near two-year losing sequence but she was only beaten a length over 5f here a fortnight ago and she should relish the step back up in trip. |

Three-time winner, at Fairyhouse, Laytown and Dundalk, during a very busy 2022 campaign; below her best at Dundalk on final three starts last year, same on first two turf runs this term; encouraging fifth over C&D last month, perhaps on the point of hitting form again. |

9st 9lb |
No AW win since March 2024; respectable showings, behind in-form rivals, over a range of trips (6f-1m) recently, without doing enough to suggest that she's primed to strike; drop back to 7f is helpful and she might have place possibilities; one of two for Iain Jardine. |
