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. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Prolific winner at around this trip, latest in Gowran claimer nearly a year ago; 0-9 for current yard but Down Royal second to Faoladh puts him in the mix on ground he'll handle. |

8th 2 (6) |
11th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 35y |
10st 0lb |
Two wins last year on good ground, including at Roscommon off 80; bounced back to form with encouraging third at same track last month before backing that up under positive ride at Down Royal 13 days ago when 1.5l second to Faoladh; definitely capable off this mark but soft ground a concern. |

Two wins last year on good ground for different trainers, including 7.5f Roscommon handicap off 80; now 10lb lower plus talented claimer takes off another 5lb; got his favoured ground when eyecatching third of 14 at Roscommon from tough draw 18 days ago; big chance. |

10st 1lb |
Veteran winner of 14 races (11 on AW); shaped well in his opening two turf runs this year; second over 7f at Leopardstown (yielding to soft) and fourth over C&D (good); a bit below that level at Gowran on latest. |

Veteran has shaped very nicely the last twice at Leopardstown (7f, yld-sft) and Roscommon (7.5f, good); close third off 3lb higher over C&D last summer; big chance with the step back up to 1m sure to suit. |

9st 2lb |
Six-time winner, five of those coming on turf; ground-versatile and showed signs of returning to form when coming from the back for a 6.75l fourth of 15 at Leopardstown on latest; eased 2lb but has not run well on both previous visits to this venue. |

Five-time Flat winner is just 1-6 over hurdles; running just okay on the level recently and has stamina to prove for this trip now back over timber; others appeal more. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 37y |
9st 10lb |
Five turf wins at various trips, including over C&D last year off 57 (from stall one); good Leopardstown second (to Masego) in May wasn't backed up at Navan and has a wide draw to overcome here. |

Knows how to win and shaped as though her turn was near when running on well for second at Leopardstown (ahead of Jurality and Felicity Smoak); big chance if she backs that up off the same mark. |

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. |

8st 9lb |
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. |
