22nd Mar 2025 Good 2m 3f 123y Class 2 |
11st 10lb |
Dual Flat winner and was a smart juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, winning twice and competitive at the top level; handicapped accordingly and left Joseph O'Brien under a bit of a cloud, albeit when highly tried; if as good as he was and not held back by his fitness after 233 days away, he'd go close; unraced over this far as a hurdler but stayed well on the Flat. |

1st Aug 2024 Good 2m 0f 11y |

Two wins on the Flat and a good juvenile hurdler two seasons ago, including winning the Grade 2 Adonis at Kempton; no match for Daddy Long Legs at Punchestown and down the field in the Ascot Stakes; others preferred. |

18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Grade 1 placed as a juvenile hurdler in April 2023 and won a 1m6f Flat handicap at the Curragh that June; while his hurdles performances in December and this April were satisfactory, he appears to be much more interesting today away from soft ground (ran on good to firm just once, creditably) and with this new stamina test, which could be just his cup of tea. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 110y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Made most for two game wins in four-runner C&D races (good to firm) last summer, latterly in this race off 2lb higher than today; second to Baileys Khelstar over C&D on latest outing was in just a three-runner race but easily his best Flat effort this year, so he could be on his way back. |

23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Comes into this off the back of winning a three-runner race over hurdles at Fontwell, but he is equally adept on the Flat with two wins in four-runner contests over C&D (good to firm) last summer, including this race off 1lb lower; respected. |

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 |
8st 11lb |
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. |

14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Won last year's 2m2f Ulster Cesarewitch and never better than when second in the C&D Trial three weeks ago, setting sail for home 4f out but unable to shake off Grand Providence; rarely seen on softer than good (had some soft-ground form in 2021); otherwise looks set to go well. |

23rd Sep 2023 Good To Firm 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Won last year's 2m2f Ulster Cesarewitch; ran creditably twice at the Curragh this summer before strong-finishing second to Extensio at Clonmel; held up for those runs but last year's success came when ridden much more prominently; may need a new personal best but she has proved her stamina and makes plenty of appeal. |

Six wins include this event back in 2021; ran well in C&D handicap back in March but nothing since on turf; definite chance if reproducing March run here. |

No threat on his last two Flat starts last August/September but was third of 16 in this 12 months ago (good to firm) when 1lb lower; ran well at the Cheltenham Festival in March; holds each-way claims once more. |

Sterling all-purpose type who hasn't won since late 2023 but has been involved in strong events on the Flat, including at Royal Ascot, over hurdles and fences since; ran as well as he ever has when a close fourth in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham (2m, good to soft) last month; solid claims in refitted cheekpieces. |

Hasn't won on the Flat since a 1m4f success on turf back in 2021; ran okay over 1m4f here a fortnight ago on all-weather debut and well worth another go at this trip. |

Again failed to convince with his stamina for this far when down the field in a premier handicap at the Curragh most recently; 1m4f looks more his trip and the forecast rain isn't welcomed. |

Did not stay 1m6f at this venue last time; better judged on his previous 1m4f third at Leopardstown but others appear to have stronger credentials. |

12th Jul 2023 Good 1m 6f 32y |

Any rain a major plus when both her wins have come on soft ground; ran well in a Listed event on reappearance and probably found the ground too quick when running well below expectations in a premier handicap at the Curragh. |

23rd Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 43y |

Third runner for yard; won twice over 1m4f on soft ground last season and made a bright start to this term when third in a 1m6f Listed race at Gowran; beaten 25l on good ground in a Curragh handicap since and will need rain to arrive. |
