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. |

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. |

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. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Five-time winner won on seasonal return here in 2024 over 5f (heavy); couldn't repeat the trick last month when a 5.25l fourth of nine (6f, heavy); only raced twice last season, so encouraging to see him out again and comeback run is something to build on but must shoulder top weight. |

15th Mar 2026 Heavy 0m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Five-time winner and beat Stag Night off 3lb higher over 5f (heavy) here on seasonal return in 2024; only seen twice last season but can go well fresh and is well handicapped so he's worth a market check. |

2nd Nov 2025 Heavy 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Five-time winner including over C&D (heavy) early last year off today's mark; not seen since comeback C&D run in March when not disgraced after meeting trouble in running; dropped 7lb since and tried in blinkers on return; goes well fresh, rider claims 7lb and has his ground so could be a danger. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 25y |
10st 1lb |
Likeable veteran whose last four wins have come over 7f; not a bad run at Gowran latest and on dangerous mark but probably vulnerable to younger legs at this trip. |
10/1 |

4th 1 (15) |
5th May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

9st 1lb |
Sole win came on AW in February but struggled twice since and has been off 98 days; back on his winning mark and ground is fine so can't dismiss if he's tuned up. |

22nd Mar 2024 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Opened his account at 16th attempt with a comfortable front-running success in 7f maiden here last month but too keen back in handicap company since; return to 1m not an obvious play and others preferred. |

1st Mar 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Opened his account at 16th attempt with a comfortable front-running success in a 7f maiden here last Friday; previously, had often run well in defeat, in good company at times (has run in three Pattern races); 5f was too sharp here on his penultimate start; 1m should suit |
