4th Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 209y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Regressive, ex-Irish mare who showed no benefit for five months off at Chepstow in June after a couple of poor efforts on the AW in the winter; little to recommend her this time. |

19th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Ex-Irish; only win was in a 7f claimer (AW) in December 2023 and she finished a tailed-off last in her final two runs (hurdle/Flat) last year; 2m may have been too far here last month but she needs a major revival back at this trip. |

23rd Apr 2024 Heavy 0m 7f 0y |

The most experienced of these after six starts and has won twice, on good and yielding to soft; struggled in Listed races the last twice and looks vulnerable should there be anything of that calibre lurking here. |

Has won two of her five starts and better than she showed when slowly away last time; still has to raise her game to be a factor here. |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fairly useful Flat racer with 2-6 strike-rate over hurdles; gave good account when third of eight at Kempton (2m, good) last month and is probably still on a workable mark but has something to prove on the much slower ground here. |
3/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Useful Flat racer who was 2-3 in novice/maiden hurdles for Paul Nicholls in the spring; tackles much stronger opposition on this handicap hurdle debut and his tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but, nevertheless, he's still very unexposed over jumps. |
5/2 |

14th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won Flat handicaps at about 1m1f (AW) and 1m4f (good; RPR 83) and he's found a new calling over hurdles judged by the way he won at Chepstow (dropped to 2m, good) recently; he shouldn't have a problem with this sharp 2m and is the one to beat. |

9th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 182y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Three wins when trained in Ireland; ran well for second on his stable debut (7f, AW) in July but not so good twice since; not sure what to expect but further rain certainly won't hurt his chance. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ought to have coped much better with the good to soft turf when down the field at Ayr (6f) three weeks ago but ran on well for second behind a next-time-out winner over C&D on stable debut in July and has good claims if judged on that performance. |

On a losing run but he made a good start for new yard (formerly with Stephen Hanlon) with second of 12 in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 11 days ago; up 2lb but not taken lightly. |

Third to Bella Colombia here over 1m1f before winning on her return visit (1m; first time in this headgear combination); 2lb lower now having struggled since, though deep ground was a feasible excuse last time. |

1st Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 195y |
9st 5lb |
Returned to form when strong-finishing third of 22 at Leopardstown (1m1f) before scoring at the same venue next time (1m); well below her best there on her latest start and she has no form in the mud; may struggle. |

Returned to form when strong-finishing third of 22 to Bella Colombia over 1m1f here early last month; built on that with a narrow C&D victory over Thrifty Of Digby, with Bella Colombia taking third; not much between the trio. |

27th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Was gaining a second win over hurdles when landing 2m3f Kilbeggan handicap last month (good); 0-11 on the Flat, although some decent efforts in the spring, albeit on softer ground; cheekpieces added here and not one to dismiss as clearly in good heart. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Dual hurdles winner and has placed Flat form on turf; likes an ease, so first time on Polytrack is a query, but she's been handling better ground lately over jumps. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |

Won a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle by 16l last summer (2m3f, good); put some underwhelming efforts behind her back at the scene of her win last time when a 3.75l runner-up (2m2f, good); can be hit or miss and up 2lb. |

Just 1-26, winning a Navan claiming maiden in 2023; lost her form on AW last winter and poor back there last time; handles soft but not easy to fancy. |

12th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Sole win from 25 starts came at Navan in a maiden claimer in 2023 over 1m; highly tried at this venue earlier this year with her best effort being a 1.75l third over 1m4f; poor in five runs at this track following that and tailed off when attempting hurdles for the first time at Cartmel last time; tongue-tie now added to hood. |
18/1 |
Verdict
The market can file the debutants into some pecking order, but a chance is taken on TACHOS who is the first foal out of a well-related winner at this trip. Thia’s experience will come in very useful given the testing conditions and he ran a nice race behind a well-touted Ballydoyle newcomer at the Curragh. He can no doubt step up again now raised further in distance and his stable has won the last two runnings of this, last year with Group-class Comhra. [Alistair Jones]
