Exposed 8yo who remains on a tough enough mark but did go close at Gowran three runs back, in a field of 16 over 1m; rarely seen at Dundalk these days. |

12st 2lb |
Gained a second win over this trip at Leopardstown last season and successful over 1m since; back to form with 1l defeat at Gowran in July but couldn't build on that a fortnight ago; should be suited by the surface and Patrick Mullins is an eyecatching jockey booking; interesting contender despite not looking particularly well treated at present. |

On a losing run but this Irish challenger arrives in good nick, not best drawn when sixth of 15 in 7f Galway handicap 24 days ago; in the mix again. |

Prolific veteran yet to score this season but has run well in defeat at times including a week ago at Listowel when staying on third over 7f; entitled to be thereabouts again, although this trip on the short side. |

18th Oct 2026 Good 1m 3f 150y |
9st 10lb |
Won easily at Down Royal (1m5f, good) and nicely on top last week at Roscommon (1m4f, yielding to soft) when defying a 9lb rise; now has the same hike to deal with in what is a stronger race; however, he is riding on the crest of a wave. |

First reserve; knows how to win and ran well over 1m4f at Galway before a midfield finish back at 1m; chance if getting a run. |

15th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 30y |

5-27 on turf; now just 1lb higher than when winning at Leopardstown last October (1m2f, heavy); best run of the season when fourth of 16 over 1m4f at Galway last month; trip-versatile, but probably best at around 1m2f. |

Two of her five Flat wins have come at this track; won a Tipperary maiden hurdle last year and not a bad Downpatrick handicap run last month; decent Sligo Flat run since; needs more on these terms. |

Last win was more than two years ago; lightly enough raced since then and showed when second at Galway two weeks ago that he is close to a winning mark again; should go well here off the same mark. |

A dual winner on good ground but has been below form in three runs this year and is unproven on ground this soft. |

30th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Gained his second career win and second win at Gowran off 4lb lower on penultimate (1m, good); ran on well for fifth off revised mark in the Sovereign Path (7f, good) latest; down 1lb and the return to 1m is a plus; considered. |

Both turf wins have come at Gowran, most recently last month over 1m off 80, having previously gone close here over same trip under regular rider; 4lb rise okay but draw is a negative and soft ground a concern. |

Most recent win came in this race last year from a 1lb higher mark (1m, good); has worn a hood on his last two starts, which has resulted in a pair of seconds at 7f/1m; chance returned to the scene of his win wearing the hood. |
