31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 100y |

Rated 129 over hurdles and probably ran to about that mark when runner-up in a Wexford handicap hurdle earlier this month; makes his chasing debut here and clearly respected if his jumping holds up. |

Four-time Flat winner is 1-4 hurdling, with the victory coming in a Galway maiden hurdle in 2024; 9.25l fourth of eight over C&D (soft) when last seen over hurdles in March and hasn't been at his best in three Flat runs since then; others preferred. |

Record of six wins form 27 Flat starts; uneven form in a busy campaign since a 2m win at Dundalk in January; hard to fancy against that background. |

Dual Flat winner was in good form at Dundalk last year, winning 1m4f handicap and touched off by Irish Cesarewitch winner Magellan Strait in 2m conditions race; never sighted on comeback run at the Curragh last month, more expected of here. |

Dual Flat winner was in good form at Dundalk over the winter, winning a 1m4f handicap and touched off by Irish Cesarewitch winner Magellan Strait in a 2m conditions race; off since February; each-way chance at his best but this is highly competitive. |

Off the mark at the third attempt in maidens when landing a 1m2f contest at the Curragh (runner-up has boosted the form); respectable handicap debut when placed at Roscommon and likely improver on AW debut. |

9st 5lb |
Three-time winner at this venue in handicaps at 7f-1m on good and soft ground; saw out 1m2f well when a 1.5l second over C&D in the Northfields premier handicap last season; just missed black type when fourth in a Listed at Navan (1m, good) on penultimate; rated 94 so unlikely winner but could challenge for a place. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Last year's winner off 76; Good runs here include second in a premier handicap last September (1m2f, good); easily won from a 5lb lower mark here in March (1m, soft); outran odds of 66-1 in a Navan Listed event when 3.25l fourth of 12 last time; likeable sort. |

Fourth in the Lincoln on return; produced career-best when easily winning Curragh handicap (1m, soft) next time off 90; made little impression in two handicap starts since, although had a troubled passage on latest; tall order in this company. |

8st 9lb |
Loves it when the mud is flying, just as it was when she won off 9lb lower at Gowran in October (1m4f, heavy); has run respectably on all four starts on her favoured ground this term and has gone well here before but this ground will surely be too lively for her. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 96y |

Only two wins from 29 starts, but placed 12 times; met trouble in running at Sligo last time, two early-season Curragh runs were encouraging. |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 2f 158y |
9st 10lb |
Had looked fairly exposed but found more improvement last term and has carried that on with two excellent runs at the Curragh this spring, latest when third behind two progressive sorts over 1m2f; ground not being as soft as she'd like is one concern, as is a poor strike-rate for one of her ability. |

Dual-purpose sort is 1-10 on Flat turf; won on the AW at Dundalk (1m4f) off 3lb lower in January and ran well at that venue following that; well beaten back on turf at Gowran 11 days ago (1m4f, yielding); suspicion he's not as effective on this surface. |

Last won over hurdles here (2m1f, yld-sft) in August 2024; went close over C&D off 6lb higher in April 2025; below that level in just three runs since, including when beaten 26l here on latest (16.5f, good); needs a revival. |
