9st 8lb |
C&D maiden winner; 1m6f win (good) at Navan on seasonal reappearance in April off 91; below par in three runs since but is now 1lb lower than for that last victory; return to AW might spark a revival. |

13th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 100y |
9st 11lb |
Made winning seasonal debut over 1m6f at Navan in April; below-form when favourite at Cork for 1m4f event won by Ascending; tailed off behind the same horse in the 2m4f Ascot Stakes; has won over 1m4f and 1m2f. |

17th Jun 2025 Good 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Most starts on good ground, unraced on firmer; lightly raced 5yo who had 282 days off before emerging from off the pace to win narrowly at Navan (1m6f) in April; below-form favourite behind Ascending at Cork (1m4f) six weeks ago but going beyond 1m6f for the first time is interesting and he holds possibilities if that latest run is forgiven. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
A bit tricky to settle and he was hooded for first time in a Flat race in 18-runner handicap at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) nine weeks ago, coming with a relentless run from mid-division to lead final 1f and score with great authority; has an 8lb higher mark today and a longer trip, but he made up a lot of late ground to take fourth in the 2m1f County Hurdle at Cheltenham in March and the best of him on the Flat is probably still to come. |
11/2 |

1st 18 (7) |
20th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Tricky to settle but fourth in this race last year (good to firm) off 2lb lower and the same this March in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham; ran respectably in his latest hurdle race too and this is his first time hooded in a Flat race; considered. |
4/1 |

12th Apr 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
11st 12lb |
Easily won maiden hurdle at Punchestown (2m, heavy) in February and highly creditable fourth in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m1f, good to soft) last month; effective on good ground on the Flat; could have more to offer in this code and he's a major player up 1lb for last time. |

Four-time winner; last victory came on penultimate start at the Curragh off 80 (1m, good); no impact off revised rating back there on latest start (2.25l behind Narmar); remains 3lb above his last winning mark and others have more pressing claims. |

10st 7lb |
Well beaten over 2m here on stable/hurdle debut in May and ran to just a fair level when placed over that trip on next two outings; however, last year's useful Irish Flat form over middle-distance/staying trips in headgear offers hope he can improve over hurdles now he's upped to 2m4f with a visor refitted; interesting. |

8th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 168y Class 4 |

Fairly useful on the Flat in Ireland; quiet on hurdle/stable debut and although he ran better to be second at Worcester (2m, good to soft), that was a modest race; likely to need more here. |

Five-time AW winner is 0-11 on turf but has run well in defeat; excellent efforts last twice at Leopardstown (a neck behind Cloud Seeker) and here, both over 1m2f on good; this is his optimum trip and he holds leading claims. |

Five-time Dundalk winner with the last four wins coming over 1m4f; cracking run behind Cloud Seeker at Leopardstown (1m2f) earlier this month; up 1lb but may have more to give for his new yard and not ruled out, despite ideally needing a bit further. |
