10st 0lb |
Looked set for a big season after his Listed win at Cork but it hasn't materialised; upset in stalls when soundly beaten again upped to 6f at Naas latest; however, he has C&D form figures of 132, including a head second in this last year, so the return to this venue offers hope of a revival. |

Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit. |

Won a fillies' maiden here in July and she ran a good race when second in a 5f Dundalk contest last month; below her best when down the field in Listed company on the AW latest; didn't seem to see out this trip previously; handicap debut. |

Naas 5f winner in July; first-time blinkers didn't work the oracle when moderate fourth in Curragh Listed last time but did have Shamrock Breeze behind; work to do to get close to Saratoga Special on that form. |

9st 11lb |
One of three for yard and preferred by McMonagle; three-time Listed winner including over C&D last October; won another Listed at Chelmsford (6f) in May; out of form on turf recently but return to AW a big plus and nicely drawn; cheekpieces go on. |

20th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) for 50-1 win in Listed race at Ayr (5f, good) in June; needs to prove that level of form was no one-off and she was down the field in a Group 3 at Sandown (5f, good to firm) last time, but she's not written off back in a handicap. |

5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 11lb |
Clear promise as a 2yo and she didn't need to improve to win a Cork maiden on reappearance (5f, good) in April; took a big step forward with 50-1 success in Listed event at Ayr two weeks ago (5f, good; cheekpieces on for the first time); has to prove that wasn't a flash in the pan. |

17th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 6f 16y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Has raced at 5f, placing three times at Listed level since making all in a Down Royal maiden in June; not at her very best when fifth at Dundalk last time (final start for Jack Davison) but performed well enough to think she's effective on AW; a first ever runner for her trainer; this speedy sort will take plenty of pegging back if seeing out the extra 1f. |

Off the mark on first run for the yard at Down Royal in June; placed in Listed company three times since; likes to get on with things from the front but needs to improve to get the better of Powerful Nation and Saratoga Special. |

Off the mark on yard debut in 5f Down Royal maiden and three placed efforts in Listed races since, the best of which when beaten a head at Deauville a fortnight ago; likely pace setter and should be involved. |

Dual AW winner at 5f-6f; finished last of 8 on handicap debut at Dundalk off 88 but was only beaten 4.5l; beat one home on turf debut in a rated race at Cork (5f, good); rated 10lb lower on the grass and this stiffer test could suit; not without a chance. |

Smart handicapper has won three times at this trip and posted a solid return at the Curragh; his race-fitness helps and this ground is fine but has a fair bit to find with some of these. |
