9st 9lb |
One of two for yard; has won four times at 6f-7f and is 2-2 at this track; sole win last year came in a three-runner auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good); subsequently placed in Listed and Group 3 company; had a few of these behind when a 3.5l third at Cork (6f, soft) on seasonal return; sharper now but has never won over 5f and Billy Lee prefers Bonus Time. |

Four wins at 6f-7f with his best effort coming when unluckily denied by Art Power in a Group 3 (soft) at the Curragh last autumn; below form next time at Ascot but is rated 109 and this ground suits so can be a big player. |

Won a rated race over 5f on heavy ground at the Curragh in April but has been well beaten since; best run in a while at Down Royal latest; handicapper relenting and was second over C&D from 6lb higher early in the year so don't completely rule out; rain would be welcome. |

7th 6 (4) |
14th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Some good form in stakes company last year and on third start this term won 1m4f Limerick Listed, improving markedly for the step up in trip; denied a clear run back at 1m2f on latest in Group 3 at the Curragh so certainly not one to rule out back at this trip. |
13/2 |

20th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |

Third runner for yard; off the mark at stakes' level in a 12.5f Listed heat at Limerick on good ground last month (Lemsairbat behind); solid efforts both previous starts at 1m2f in a Group 3 at Deauville (gd-sft) and in a Listed race at Compiegne (heavy); booking of Moore a plus and ground versatile; place chance. |

9st 9lb |
Ex-Irish gelding whose good spell in 2024 featured a Group 3 win and who ran creditably a few times last year; seemed to need the run at Doncaster on stable/seasonal debut but has work to do to reverse placings with Aramram and Jasour. |

28th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 2y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Previously trained by Ger Lyons in Ireland; best efforts in 2025 when runner-up in Listed event and Group 3 at the Curragh (both 6f, good); changed hands for 250,000gns in the autumn; major player if cherry ripe on his first start for new connections and needs watching carefully in the market. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |

Enjoyed a purple patch at the backend of last season which included a win in this race; had been running well in defeat this season until failing to fire in the Group 1 Sprint Cup at Haydock; may be able to get back on track in these calmer waters, especially with rain forecast. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Sole win in 26 Flat starts was over 1m1f in lower-grade contest here last August; that is possibly his optimum trip, although only beaten half-a-length over 10.5f on AW in December; after five months off, not a bad run at Roscommon lately. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 63y |

Just one win from 28 attempts, but has been knocking on the door in recent starts here; fourth over 10.5f in November before taking third spot next two times; squeezed out when one-paced upped in trip over C&D last time; this trip may not be his optimum. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Prominent racer started his campaign with back-to-back handicap wins at Newmarket (5f, good) and York (5f, good); yet to score at Pattern level but huge runs the last twice in the Group 2 Temple Stakes at Haydock (5f, good) and when a 1.5l fifth of 26 in the King Charles III (5f, gd-fm) at Royal Ascot; fourth in this last year and should be in the mix again. |
9/2 |

5th 6 (23) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
3-30 turf strike-rate doesn't do justice to his ability and he confirmed his recent improvement when a highly creditable fourth, again from the front, in a Group 2 at Haydock (good to soft; acts well on good) in May; this stiffer track and tougher opposition are likely to count against him. |
25/1 |
|
4th 5 (7) |
23rd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
He's got back on track in a major way in 5f handicaps this spring, winning at Newmarket then impressively making all in a big field at York last week (both on good ground; effective on soft early in career); back up in grade this afternoon but this thriving 5yo could be capable of another bold bid. |

Latest of three Flat wins for Jessica Harrington was off 84 last summer; improved of late over hurdles; mild promise when sixth at Bellewstown and then 22-1, dropped in grade to beat geldings at Wexford; needs proper good ground and trainer admits she's unpredictable. |

Well handicapped on last year's Irish best; has not made a big impact in three runs for Stephen Hanlon (single-figure price on each occasion) and cheekpieces didn't help over 7f three weeks ago; dropping down the weights and new headgear is tried but there are risks attached. |
