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. |

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. |

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. |

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. |

Four-time winner at 7f/1m, the last two at Listed level over 1m on heavy ground in the Knockaire Stakes at Leopardstown, the scene of his best form; beaten only a neck in this race two years ago, tenth behind Dunum last year; drawn low. |

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. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo; 0-8 this term for new yard but is proving consistent, creditable third when favourite at Hamilton (1m1f) most recently; this may be the day to catch him, with tongue-tie worn for the first time. |
4/1 |

3rd 6 (3) |
11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Sole win came at Cork (1m2f, soft) in April 2024 when trained by Dermot Weld but has posted some good efforts for this stable, including when fourth of 11 at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; now steps back up in trip with each-way claims. |
8/1 |

4th 10 (3) |
25th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
0-13 since winning in April 2024 on his second start and the drop back to 1m poses a question; only sixth of nine at Sandown three weeks ago but running well previously; might have an each-way chance if bouncing back. |
