In-foal mare; won Killarney mares' Listed contest in May, relegating Shecouldbeanything to third; backed that up by beating Senecia at Listowel; can be fancied to uphold form with those two rivals on these terms and could go close. |

Useful hurdler though better known as a chaser who has often been campaigned ambitiously; pulled up in a Grade 2 chase at Gowran ten days ago; best performance this year when winning a Grade 3 chase at Killarney in May. |

High-class performer, and acts well around here having won over hurdles and a Grade 3 chase over this trip in May; found to have burst after unseating in the Galway Plate; back on comfortable territory here and keeps many of these out of the handicap. |

Ran well when third of six at Uttoxeter (2m, good) on latest visit to Britain in July but was well beaten when falling in a Downpatrick chase last week and is too inconsistent to rely upon. |

11st 6lb |
Dual-purpose sort is on a long losing run; in action on Flat and over hurdles since a good run over fences in the spring; blinkers added now; potentially interesting, though he needs to reverse Grand Annual form with Jasko Des Dames. |

16th Aug 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Dual-purpose sort is on a long losing run, well held in valuable 2m6f Galway handicap hurdle on latest; previous two Flat maiden runs were poor so seemingly fair bit to do off this opening mark but is unexposed in this sphere. |

One of three for yard; generally out of form in 2025 in chases and on the Flat; narrowly denied in this race last year off this mark and this may have been a long-term target so would be no surprise to see a revival; interesting. |

Dual-purpose sort has failed to fire in either code in 2025; well beaten last two starts on the Flat and pulled up on last start over hurdles; hard to fancy on recent showings. |

15th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 185y |

Dual-purpose; has won four on the Flat but has been below his best since a decent run over C&D last August; well behind Ragmans Corner at Navan latest; tongue-tie and cheekpieces need to revive. |

11st 12lb |
Won a valuable handicap hurdle at Galway last time (2m1f, good to yielding), under a good ride by today's jockey; that was a sixth hurdles win but none of those has ever come off a mark this high; not a surefire candidate to follow up. |

Placed in last year's Ascot Stakes and in the October Handicap at Naas; came back to form in style when winning the big amateur handicap over 2m at the Galway festival; favourite for a handicap hurdle later in the week, the run may have come too soon. |

Most recent of his five wins was in a valuable 2m handicap at Naas in October 2024; ran poorly when well fancied for this race last year, others seem more dependable; one of three in the field for his owner, Derek O'Connor rides. |

11st 4lb |
High-class staying hurdler, rated 155; 0-5 so far chasing this term but much more encouraging run on latest when second to the classy Oscars Brother in Grade 2 Ten Up Novices' at Navan last month; jumping still requires attention but is 13lb lower than hurdles here in first handicap chase. |

High-class staying hurdler, rated 155; now has serious questions to answer after his first four chase starts; remote seventh in Leopardstown event won by Koktail Divin (previously beaten by Oscars Brother at Punchestown); needs to jump a lot better than in 2m4f Gowran event; longer trip should be a help at least. |

Back from a long spell in the doldrums with improved efforts in hot handicap chases at Aintree (2m5f, gd-sft) and over C&D (yielding) the last twice; big chance now dropped in grade with talented claimer taking off a handy 7lb. |
