Recorded seventh career win at Limerick in June (good), some of earlier wins came in more testing conditions; recent runs well below best so needs to bounce back. |

Hard to win with (3-68); has run some fine races in defeat this year and does go well at this track so has to come into calculations for each-way players. |

Two of his four wins have come at this track over an extended mile; two fine efforts at the festival here three days apart (hampered last time); ground is fine and looks a big player. |

Goes well at this venue and was only reeled in close to home over 8.5f here on Tuesday; runs off the same mark now and nicely drawn so can't discount dropped back in trip; obvious chance. |

24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well backed on his stable debut at Nottingham in October (8.3f, heavy) but blew the start and finished tailed off; again slowly away when third over 1m2f back at Nottingham six days later; pulled up on hurdle debut 45 days ago; risky. |
10/1 |

He's struggled to get competitive for three different yards this year, despite tumbling in the weights; having only his second go for Ryan Potter today and finished 44l adrift six days ago when co-favourite here (1m, heavy) on first attempt for him, albeit after a slow start; not often seen over this far; it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

Veteran is an eight-time winner (1-6 on AW), the last of those at Fairyhouse in 2024; ran a good race from a wide draw at that venue on penultimate but not as good at Limerick since; handicapped to go close if running to his ability. |

Eight wins including once over C&D; some fine runs in defeat since winning at Naas on return this term; probably found the ground a bit quick at Leopardstown last time; is better here too but rain would help. |

Fine stalwart has won eight races, including seasonal return at Naas in March (7f, soft-to-heavy); below best of late but reduced mark now and soft ground so could improve on recent form. |

Has come down in the world a long way since 7f Listed win for Ger Lyons in 2022; started the season with an encouraging third in 1m2f Fairyhouse contest in June but both runs since not at the same level, not seeming to stay 1m last time; drops back in trip. |

9st 9lb |
0-9 for this yard and was never better than midfield at Ayr on last month's return from nearly a year off; entitled to be sharper for the outing but would need to see market support to consider on this belated AW debut with a first-time visor added to his regular tongue-tie. |
