It was never in much doubt when impressively off the mark in a 1m maiden at Killarney in May; absent since and returns in a tongue-tie, but he's dangerously unexposed; market useful with the stable also running Vega Magnifico. |

Shaped well on debut for Johnny Feane in a 6f maiden at Naas last November, staying on late for fourth after starting slowly; confirmed promise at Sligo on seasonal debut; had plenty to spare when winning a 1m Killarney maiden in May, form boosted by the second with an 8l win at Listowel; unexposed sort, holds a leading chance. |

Lightly raced 4yo was having first run since July (gelded) when staying-on second to an improver at the Curragh last month (7f, yielding-to-soft) in first-time visor; yet to race in testing conditions but good chance he'll handle it and one to consider. |

Late-developing colt; placed at Limerick and this venue (beaten even-money favourite) before hacking up in a maiden at Listowel early last month; interesting in first handicap, though mark is not obviously lenient. |

11st 4lb |
Flat winner who is 0-6 over hurdles but he won on chase debut at Fakenham (2m, good) in May before a creditable third at Uttoxeter 11 days ago; did well to hang in there after being pestered for the lead last time and he's been an improved performer since switched to fences; respected. |

Low-grade Flat winner; 0-6 over hurdles but made a successful chase debut at Fakenham when too good for Getaway Jewel and one other finisher; this is deeper and he's up 5lb. |

Won a low-grade Flat handicap last summer but has modest record over hurdles and was well beaten at Taunton (2m, good) last month, after a layoff; might be aided by refitted cheekpieces on this chasing debut but is not bred for fences; risky. |

Has has improved significantly since blinkers were added, completing a Dundalk hat-trick (1m-1m4f) in December /January and even better form when second of 12 to Penzance over 1m2f at Lingfield five weeks ago; there's nothing wrong with that form so he's yet another who has to enter the reckoning. |

1st Mar 2024 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Lightly raced on AW in Ireland but he has improved significantly since blinkers were added, most recently running away with a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January (taking him to 3-3 in headgear); no issue with the longer trip (won over 1m4f on penultimate start) but a 13lb rise for last time (raised a total of 28lb for the three wins), allied to significantly stronger opposition, could leave him vulnerable; his tendency to hang sharply right won't be an asset here either. |

Kept on well to score off this mark at Chepstow (2m, good to firm) in July and also has a soft-ground success on his record but both runs last month were below par and conditions are probably not ideal for him today. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Has very low mileage for an 8yo and has Flat form figures of 221 since the tongue-tie went on; unraced over this far but he looks all about stamina, having finished second in an Irish Cesarewitch (2m1f) and one better in last month's Chester Cup (2m2f, good; has run well on faster); that latest race went like clockwork from his low stall but he seems very uncomplicated, and this was nominated as his next target straight after that win; big player. |

1st 2 (1) |
8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |

One of three runners for the yard; lightly raced 8yo who was second in the 2m1f Irish Cesarewitch in 2024 and also in non-handicaps over 10.5f and 1m6f on his latest two starts this year; will probably be in good form but needs a career best. |

3rd Apr 2026 Soft 1m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Second runner for yard; three-time Flat winner was second in the 2024 Irish Cesarewitch; has had his issues since but despite being very weak in the betting, ran a lovely second at Dundalk in February (ahead of Dallas Star); entitled to improve but unproven on soft. |
