19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Four-time winner whose best form has on soft and heavy at around 7f; got those optimum conditions over C&D last time when third, finishing 1.75l behind Mickey The Steel and 6.5l behind Red Charlie; cheekpieces added to the tongue tie now, but may struggle to reverse form. |

9st 5lb |
Has recorded his only two wins over 1m at this venue; ground was heavy when he scored off this mark last October, his 2024 win was on good going; his record of finishing second ten times strikes a note of caution; below best in three 2026 appearances. |

Just 2-22 but has taken the runner-up spot nine times; won on heavy at Leopardstown in October off 5lb lower; decent enough return at Cork (7f, soft) when a 6l sixth; Vega's Muse appears to be stable number one. |

Lightly enough raced since his last win two years ago; well beaten over seven at the Curragh last week but had run quite well in handicaps over this trip on soft ground prior to that; career low mark today and no surprise should he be involved although ground might not be soft enough. |
10/1 |

Dual Listed winner at his best; ran well in defeat when sixth of 18 behind Rosato at Navan (6f, good to yielding) last time, doing best work at the finish; 2lb better off with that rival; veteran is a contender if the heavens open. |

Unbeaten in four runs at Sligo, most recently last month (third has won since) at 6.5f; 4lb rise okay but record at this track relatively underwhelming so needs to improve that. |
