30th Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Seven-time turf winner won twice in July and ran a decent race on latest off this mark when a 3.75l fifth of 16 at Galway; has won off higher ratings in the past so not dismissed with in-form claimer taking off 5lb. |
15/2 |

5th 18 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 4lb |
Seven-time turf winner on a hat-trick after back to back wins at Navan (1m2f, good) and Killarney (11.5f, good); has gone up 11lb for those wins but she has won off higher marks in the past; however, was unplaced in the 5.40 here on Thursday. |

Ground-versatile sort has hit form lately, winning over 1m2f at Navan and carrying a 7lb penalty at Killarney over just short of this trip; up another 4lb but has run well in defeat at this track and looks a player. |

Seven-time winner but hasn't scored since May 2024 and has been off since running well to finish third in a Ballinrobe claimer in July last year; record when fresh suggests he might need this. |

Thed last of his two wins came at Bellewstown in 2023; some decent runs in defeat this year but was poor at Fairyhouse last time and has to rebound. |

Got all the gaps down the inner when winning the big 1m handicap here on Tuesday, with seven of these behind; has loads of gears and likely to be ridden similarly from widest draw; 7lb penalty. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 0lb |
Won the Irish Lincoln last season; attempted to bring off the double at Doncaster and produced a fine effort to finish third of 22 behind Godwinson; has failed to prosper since third to Dunum in this last year; however, he is 8lb lower now and should be at peak fitness after a Curragh prep-run in a race dominated by Pierre Royal and Booyea. |

Won the Irish Lincolnshire over C&D in 2025 but no joy since; midfield at Limerick on latest (1m, yielding) and remains 2lb above last winning mark; best form on easier ground than this; others appeal more. |

Fairly treated on her back-to-back runner-up efforts over 7f on AW/turf in August but not quite at the same level in recent starts; Captain Parma is the more obvious of her prolific stable's pair. |

17th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 6f 3y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Ex-Irish soft/heavy-ground winner; 0-10 for James Owen since June; has posted some good efforts in defeat but struggles for consistency and it was one of her lesser efforts when fifth of seven at Chester (7f, good) on Friday; first run at 6f for over two years. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 1y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo who is 0-9 for James Owen since the spring; has posted some good efforts in defeat, most recently when third at Lingfield (7f, AW) last week, but her tendency to race too freely and/or start slowly is a nagging concern. |

Progressive sort has won both starts since moving to Charles Byrnes; won off 95 at Thurles (2m, good) and followed up off 111 at Navan (2m, yielding to soft); got hit with a 14lb hike for that and this is a much tougher task; will need a career best but he can't be discounted. |
