Won here this time last year as a 2yo and series of solid efforts in handicaps of late put him in the mix; tends to race keenly which won't help his chances of seeing out this longer trip though. |

22nd Oct 2023 Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up in 1m2f Listed race in France last backend for former yard; some good runs in defeat this term, notably making up plenty of ground over 1m1f at Tipperary early this month on heavy (Walhaan and Saltonstall behind); drop in trip not ideal but top-weight a definite player. |

Seven Flat wins include over C&D, and more recently on the AW in December; trip inadequate on seasonal return here in April and has since been pulled up over hurdles; champion jockey booked but veteran appears vulnerable. |

Seven-time Flat winner won a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March 2023 (2m, good to yielding) but generally moderate form over hurdles since then; the same can be said of his recent outing on the level at Leopardstown last month. |

Grand servant whose nine wins include this race last year off 94; touched off at the Curragh on opening day of campaign but hasn't reproduced that effort off revised mark and has a bit to find with a couple of these on recent Tipperary run; 2lb lower. |

Third career win came on final start last season in 1m Listowel Listed in testing conditions under a positive ride (just a day after being well beaten in a handicap); failed to beat a single rival home in 1m4f Curragh Listed on return; balance of form is over shorter than this so others preferred. |

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. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |

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. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Multiple wins at 7f-1m in Ireland, including on Polytrack, but she hasn't looked well treated on turf in Britain; has a lower AW mark but still has enough to prove in her first run over 5f. |

Eight-time winner in Ireland but all over 7f/1m, and three starts over 6f/7f for this yard have yielded little; takes another drop in class but best watched for now. |

Eight-time winner in Ireland (7f/1m) who has yet to sparkle in two 6f starts for this yard, including when beaten 12l to finish last of eight at Windsor (good to firm) on Monday; this trip is more suitable so heed any market signals. |
