23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Three-time AW winner, whose sole turf win came over 7f at Leopardstown; absent since November but ran well on seasonal return when third in this race last year (to Moltophino) off today's mark; 7lb claim could prove useful. |

Six wins but losing run stretches back to September 2022; not terrible efforts over C&D the last twice, but needs to find more to get his head back in front. |

11th May 2024 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Found a surge of improvement at Dundalk last autumn for Ger Lyons, winning 7f handicap, and after a big-money sale she ran respectably when seventh in Kempton Listed race (1m) last month; not ruled out completely but she needs to improve even on her best AW form now back on turf. |

Found a surge of improvement switched to the AW at Dundalk last autumn for Ger Lyons, winning a 7f handicap in October and creating a positive impression in a Listed event at 1m the following month, strong at the finish on her first crack at the trip; sold for 300,000gns in December; could well have more to come for her new connections; interesting despite a penalty. |

Four-time winner here including handicap over this trip on this card last year off 67; joined yard after second in C&D claimer in March but yet to run anywhere near his rating on turf, latest in Roscommon claimer; should appreciate return to AW. |
