14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Progressive last summer and again for this season's new yard, winning at Leopardstown and following up off 7lb higher over C&D in lady riders handicap; didn't run badly at Goodwood latest so not one to rule out. |

29th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Progressive last summer and again for this season's new yard when he won handicaps last month at Leopardstown (1m1f, soft) and the Curragh (1m2f Ladies Derby, good); tongue tied last three starts; needs the breaks from stall 1 but fine in big fields and another healthy step forward can't be ruled out. |

Last win came in a Navan handicap over 1m2f in October 2023 and remains 9lb higher; has run some competitive races in defeat since then and wouldn't be a bolt from the blue should she run well after a break. |

Losing run since 2023 but holding her form well on AW lately; at her best when she gets a good pace to aim at, which looks likely here but form of her recent Dundalk third has taken a few knocks and may be vulnerable to better treated rivals. |

AW winner, showed potential for turf success with several good Curragh runs last season; beaten favourite in races at Limerick and the Curragh this season for this stable; seems risky but could feature; competing from a new career-low, 23lb below initial mark after debut win. |

Last of two wins came here over 1m1f last summer off 74; seasonal-best came over same C&D a fortnight ago when strong-finishing third (from a wide draw) of 22 to Bella Colombia (fourth has won since); nice turn around in weights with that rival here and cheekpieces added; should go well. |

10st 13lb |
Won 4yo handicap hurdle at 2025 Cheltenham Festival and had a massive payday in last season's Irish Cesarewitch; down the field in three big handicap hurdles between late November and April; not much luck when unplaced favourite for the Chester Cup; flopped when well-fancied for the Ascot Stakes; questions to answer but could not be ruled out. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Won 4yo handicap hurdle at 2025 Cheltenham Festival and took a huge prize for Irish Cesarewitch on Flat at the Curragh (2m1f, yielding) last September, in the latter bursting clear 1f out and scoring with considerably more authority than the margin suggests; underwhelming over hurdles before last month's Chester Cup, in which he also had the widest draw, but he started favourite nevertheless and made some headway from the back to finish seventh of 15; he didn't have the rub of the green that day and is shortlisted even though connections also now resort to headgear. |

One of three for Joseph O'Brien; won 4yo handicap hurdle at 2025 Cheltenham Festival and also took a huge prize for last September's Irish Cesarewitch on Flat at the Curragh (2m1f, yielding); underwhelming in his three handicap hurdles in November-April, which is a concern, as is today's widest stall, but his Curragh win (bursting clear 1f out) was delivered with considerably more authority than the winning margin suggests; respected. |

Winless since rattling off a treble in 2023; however, her two recent runs over 1m suggest she is close to striking again, with a close second at Leopardstown and 1.5l sixth at Galway last time; probably doesn't want it too soft; new headgear on. |

Well handicapped on his wins at Bath (1m2f) and Epsom (8.5f) last year, but he hasn't threatened back on the Flat in his last two starts; needs to raise his game and it would be a concern if rain arrives (all wins have been on good/good to firm). |
