19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 161y |
11st 7lb |
Gained his sole hurdles success in this event in 2024; unconvincing Flat form this summer makes him hard to fancy; however, he showed fair form over hurdles in the first half of 2025. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 40y |
9st 2lb |
Sole Flat win came in 2023 although has mostly been competing over hurdles in recent times; improved markedly over poor Navan seasonal return when fourth at Roscommon (1m4f, good), staying on after slowly away; below that at the Curragh last time; on career low mark. |

Three wins apiece over hurdles and on the Flat; best recent hurdle run came over 3m at this venue last month; would have a squeak if returning to that form. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three handicap hurdles on the bounce at 2m5f-2m7f on good ground; generally struggled since and his latest two runs have been fairly dismal; returns to chasing for the first time since 2024, when he didn't set things alight in three beginners'. |

4th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 210y |

Completed a hat-trick of handicap hurdle wins during a short time frame last August; went up an aggregate 23lb for victories at Wexford, Ballinrobe and Tramore; has tended to struggle since then; fair fourth at Bellewstown early last month, out of the money at Downpatrick and last week at Galway. |

Won at Down Royal last time in a tongue-tie, his second win over hurdles; 7lb rise looks plenty but still respected; handles soft so could be fine on this ground. |

Sole win from 31 starts came at Sligo in May off 7lb lower; ran a nice race over C&D when a 1.5l second in July but below best twice since; needs to bounce back. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 161y |

Inconsistent sort; won off 7lb lower here in May; down the field on her next two starts; a clear second, 11l in front of today's rival Granlahan, at Kilbeggan on penultimate start; failed to reproduce that form at the same venue two weeks later. |

Made the breakthrough at Sligo in May (2m2f, good) off 84; soundly beaten in two runs following that but her runner-up finish here last time (2m3f, good) is evidence that she could yet add to her victory. |

29th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |
10st 10lb |
Point winner who scored over fences at Newcastle (about 3m, good to soft) in March and made all over C&D (good) last month; had Blazing Court, Path Of Stars and Judicial Review close behind that day but a 2lb nudge is no reason to dismiss him. |
4/1 |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 34y Class 5 |

One of two to pull clear of the others when opening account at Newcastle (2m7f, good to soft) in March, and both subsequent fourths (3m/3m1f; latter was here) were perfectly respectable; may benefit from this drop back in trip; no surprise if he features. |
