9st 2lb |
Building up a useful CV and his comfortable all-the-way Group 3 win at the Curragh (1m2f, good/yielding) last month was a personal best; galloped on strongly that day and should stay this extra 2f; another plausible candidate for Aidan O'Brien. |

9st 3lb |
Dual winner at two is a useful colt but it's been tricky to find a spot for him this term; runner-up in Group 3 at the Curragh in May and placed in Listed contest at Deauville in August, both times over this trip, and not shamed in very valuable Grade 3 at Kentucky Downs last time when tried in cheekpieces (left off here); handles easy ground well and should be involved. |

9st 2lb |
Two easy 2yo wins (minor races) and runner-up in Group 3 Gallinule Stakes at the Curragh (1m2f, good to yielding) last month; however, he was no match for the winner and doesn't appear to be progressing; something to find. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Placed in Group 3/Listed races last year for Edward O'Grady and bolted up in handicap at Epsom (1m2f, good to soft) last month on second start for this yard; unable to reproduce that form in Listed race at Royal Ascot but maybe didn't handle the fast ground; could go well if conditions suit. |

10th 7 (8) |
17th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Placed at Group 3 and Listed level last year; recorded a really smart handicap performance when making his second start for Richard Fahey a winning one on reappearance at the recent Epsom Derby meeting (1m2f, good to soft), pulling 4l clear; a fairly quick turnaround is a slight worry after such a big effort but he's bang there on form; has raced only on going softer than good. |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Won Leopardstown maiden (1m, heavy) last April on debut for Edward O'Grady; minor honours in his two Group 3s and three Listed events, on last two occasions bang there on testing ground over about 1m4f in France (stable debut latest); starts new season gelded and needs a second look. |

24th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Heavy-ground maiden winner in April who raced rather freely in rear when fifth of 11 in Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (good to firm) on penultimate start; evens but not discredited, considering 1m2f, when his sights were lowered on latest; blinkers are turned to, however, for this handicap debut and he needs improvement. |
13/2 |
|
2nd 4 (3) |
13th Jul 2024 Good 1m 2f 40y |
9st 10lb |
Leopardstown maiden win in April came over this trip on heavy; highly-tried since, never landing a blow when slow-starting fourth in Gallinule at the Curragh and again when 61/2l off stablemate Illinois in 1m6f Queen's Vase at Ascot on fast ground; big-race entries remain over further so drop in trip here may not suit although clearly the one to beat on RPR's. |

Brother to Churchill; struggled in two Pattern races since making a winning start at Dundalk (1m) but he was never ideally positioned to challenge at the Curragh last time (1m); had three months off since then and probably capable of better. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo; overall record of 1-14 but he's been in good form for new yard this season, including second in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in May, with reopposing Flying Frontier back in fourth; bumped into a well-treated rival when runner-up again at Nottingham last time; likely to be on the premises under Oisin Murphy. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 4 (8) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo; overall record of 1-13 but he's been in good form for new yard this season and has been placed in Class 2 events (1m2f) in his last two starts; seems versatile ground-wise and he could make a major impact if this sets up for his closing style. |
4/1 |
|
3rd 17 (10) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 17y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
Rather disappointing for Dermot Weld in Ireland after winning a soft-ground maiden; has still not added to that 2024 win but he's been highly competitive in 1m2f handicaps on all three starts for new connections, runner-up to an unexposed rival in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (good to firm) 11 days ago; each-way claims again. |
11/1 |
