3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 63y |
10st 1lb |
Three-time course winner over 5f/6f on varying ground; most recent run this term was a step in the right direction (considerately-handled never nearer sixth) and could reverse form with a couple of these with top rider replacing inexperienced 10lb claimer; down to a career-low mark. |

6th 1 (8) |
4th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Three-time course winner over 5f/6f on varying ground; poor return to action in March over C&D on heavy; better over 7f last time for this 10lb claimer; trainer has a more obvious chance with Iff In Doubt. |

27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 205y |
9st 0lb |
One of three for yard; five-time winner, the most recent over C&D (yielding) in October 2024 off 4lb higher; shaped as though in need of the run last time at the Curragh and should be much sharper now; interesting. |
20/1 |

7th 9 (13) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 5f 0y |
9st 1lb |
One of three for yard; five-time winner including three 6f victories at this venue; on losing run since winning at Naas in October 2024 (6f, yielding); no joy last season but did run well in defeat at times and returns 3lb below his last winning mark; record fresh suggests he might need this. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition. |
12/1 |

9th 1 (5) |
27th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Marvelous veteran showed he retained all his ability when winning for the eleventh time in the Listed Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, sft-hvy) a month ago; however, has come up short in the last three renewals of this race and 5f probably sharp enough for him these days. |
10/1 |
|
1st 3 (3) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Splendid veteran with eight Curragh wins to his name; thoroughly deserved his career highlight when beating a subsequent Classic winner in this race last year; has also produced many good displays in defeat here; showed plenty of zest with Dundalk second in December; eased when beaten on reappearance in the Irish Lincoln. |

Won a Chester handicap on heavy ground in September 2024 but mainly below form since (finished last of seven over C&D last week); well handicapped but has plenty to prove. |

23rd Mar 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |

Seven-time winner (including four at this track); has looked regressive the last couple of years and was beaten out of sight at Naas last month; hopes rest on a return to the AW from a falling mark; wide draw doesn't help. |

Three-time winner on turf at 6f-6.5f with all three victories coming on soft or heavy ground; has gone well on good ground, however, including when beaten a neck in this race last year off 11lb higher; below best latest but may have needed that and he could go well at a price. |

7th Mar 2025 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Rated in the 100's in his prime in Britain; resurgent of late off much reduced mark, gaining second win from last three starts when running out a decisive scorer over 7f a week ago; up an aggregate of 21lb for those two wins so needs to step up again off highest mark in 18 months; first AW attempt at 1m. |

Rated in the 100's in his prime in Britain; holding his form at a much lower level nowadays, hit with a 10lb rise for C&D success last month and better again when second to a stablemate off this mark since; should be thereabouts. |

Four-time course winner (three C&D); won here on last season's return from 4lb higher and has the benefit of a recent AW run this time; excuse when 7th on AW latest (blindfold off late) and could go well back here despite his advancing years. |

Grand old servant who is stuck on a 16-race losing streak; disappointed at Gowran this month but stamina was stretched over a mile on the day; he's well treated now and has won around here in the past but the percentage call is to oppose. |

Useful sprinter who is suited by soft conditions; third in opening two 6f runs this season here (heavy) and at Naas (soft); upped in trip when runner-up over C&D last time; was 4.75l behind winner Red Charlie that day but now 14lb swing at the weights, although he had race-fitness on his side that day. |
