30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y |
8st 11lb |
All four maidens runs at 7f, twice placed; roughly two lengths in front of third-placed Paradise Perfect when runner-up at Fairyhouse three weeks ago; possible that longer trip will help his cause. |
8/1 |

2nd 11 (11) |
9th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
A fine effort on debut last year behind a subsequent Group 3 winner but regressed next time on soft; returned with a solid effort at the Curragh when 1.75l in front of Lope De Rueda; should have improved from that and a big player with cheekpieces added. |

8st 12lb |
The last of his four wins came in a C&D premier handicap in June 2024; some cracking runs in defeat since, including a close sixth in this race last year and runner-up over C&D in June; not as good behind Kalir last time. |
14/1 |

8th 1 (9) |
9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Last win came in a valuable C&D handicap in June 2024 off 88; best run for almost a year came in the same event here last time in first-time blinkers (retained), with 3l back to Playin Cool; 5lb rise for that is perhaps a tad harsh but winner ran well twice at Galway; firmly in the mix. |

3rd 1 (1) |
30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Placed twice over this trip (at Navan and Cork) before front-running 1m maiden win at Cork, beating Cuban Dawn who ran respectably off 91 in the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot; makes handicap debut off 90 here and sets a good standard. |
4/1 |
|
1st 14 (2) |
23rd May 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Two good runs this season both over 1m2f; strong chance if equally effective at this trip; slight concern that his second on heavy ground at Navan was better than his third on good-to-yielding at Cork, though he was beaten under 2l; a stable outsider was too good for Cuban Dawn last week. |

Flat turf winner for Noel Meade but she has failed to fire in two runs for this yard; beaten 7.25l in a claimer over 10.5f here on latest; not an obvious candidate for this trip and others hold more pressing claims. |

11st 9lb |
Below form on the Flat three weeks ago and now 0-13 since joining Iain Jardine but was second to Alvesta over C&D (good) on latest hurdling start and is also suited by slower ground; no surprise if he features. |
8/1 |
|
8th 2 (13) |
8th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Did well to finish third after stumbling at the start at Carlisle (1m1f, good) last month and has since run well over hurdles; no issue with track, trip or ground conditions and has possibilities for a trainer who has won this three times since 2021. |
12/1 |

0-10 over hurdles but made the frame on last three attempts, losing out only by a short head on one occasion; placed twice on the Flat lately will be suited by today's trip/ground; good chance. |

Won 7f Galway maiden in first-time cheekpieces; solid first run of this season (no cheekpieces) when chasing home a 10l winner in Naas rated contest over 1m2f; again second over 1m at Listowel with tongue-tie as well as cheekpieces; looks the pick of two runners for the stable. |

Second over 1m at Bellewstown; always prominent and rallied well up the hill to win useful 7f maiden at the Galway festival; not seen since and headgear left off; big step up in trip but dam 1m winner out of half-sister to 1m4f Group 1 winner and running style suggests he'll stay. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 5 |

Predictably struggled in good-quality Irish Flat maiden last month and is now 0-30 under all codes; has much more realistic assignment now back in a low-grade handicap hurdle for new stable but still makes only limited appeal. |

5th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Multiple winner at up to 8.5f on good or slower; on the slide in three starts this season but this combination of a drop in grade and new headgear may prompt a resurgence; return to shorter is also a plus; shortlisted. |
7/2 |

12th 6 (14) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
10st 13lb |
Five-time winner on a handy mark but it's been a quiet start to this season and, even if back on song, looks vulnerable to stronger stayers over this far; the return of a visor might be no bad thing. |
14/1 |
|
8th 2 (10) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
C&D scorer who made a promising return from a poor draw when seventh of 22 in 7f York handicap four weeks ago; figures on a handy-looking mark now and he's interesting. |
