18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
10st 0lb |
Has recorded six of his eight wins over 5f, including last year's Rockingham Handicap here; proved that he is in good shape with a conditions race victory at Naas a fortnight ago; has run well in Listed events this term; trainer has a strong contender in Headmaster. |

1st 2 (5) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Seven-time sprint winner, landed a C&D handicap off 97 in April, making all to beat Indigo Dream by 2.5l; shaped well when third in Listed company over C&D in May (Likedbymike in fourth); beaten favourite 20 days ago when fifth at Cork (Likedbymike second) but wasn't disgraced and likely to bounce back at a track he enjoys. |
2/1 |

5th 2 (2) |

9st 9lb |
Multiple sprint winner who enjoys good ground and finished third (behind Gazelle d'Or) in his first Listed race at Naas last month despite an unfavourable track position; looks sure to go well. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Nine-time winner, including twice over C&D; no joy yet this season; ran better than the bare result from 10lb out of the handicap in the Rockingham; finished well in the recent Naas event won by Sovereign Cry; not ruled out. |
8/1 |

6th 2 (8) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Nine-time winner including over C&D; no joy yet this season but ran better than the bare result from miles out of the handicap at the Curragh last weekend; this more realistic and lurking on a dangerous mark. |
11/1 |

8st 8lb |
On a long losing streak (since October 2023) but shaped well on several occasions, including on seasonal debut at Leopardstown; less encouraging run over C&D next time and folded tamely at Navan on Sunday; the jury is out. |

On a long losing streak (since October 2023) but shaped well on several occasions, including on seasonal debut at Leopardstown; less encouraging run at Gowran dents confidence in her prospects of adding to her tally. |

9st 7lb |
Ready win in a Class 5 at Thirsk last month; similar form when second in a Class 3 at Doncaster last week; she will need more to come out on top today but she's arriving in top form. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 4 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 3 |
9st 5lb |
Some good efforts for her new yard this year prior to snapping a losing sequence with a win at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; that may have given her confidence a boost and she's respected back up 4lb. |
11/4 |
|
1st 2 (4) |

On a losing run but she comes here in decent nick for her current yard, third of seven at Nottingham (5f) 16 days ago; needs considering on a 2lb lower mark here. |

Solid form in four runs on turf since an unproductive spell on AW; needs to find extra on the evidence of last Saturday's third at Limerick; previous third at this venue was over 7f. |

5th 6 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 6f 150y |

Dual turf winner has shaped nicely enough in two runs since return from a two-month break; not beaten that far when fourth of 15 at Leopardstown latest (7f, good) and place claims if backing that up. |

Useful sprint handicapper on turf; sprung a 66-1 shock when beating Powerful National in a 5f Group 3 race at Dundalk last October; no sign of anything remotely comparable in four runs since February. |

11th Jul 2026 Firm 0m 6f 150y |
9st 13lb |
Three turf wins include one at Fairyhouse (6f) in 2024; high head-carriage proved his undoing when second off his reduced mark at the same venue on Wednesday; had excuses at the same track last week (upset in stalls, not clear run) when well backed in an apprentice handicap won by Monastere. |

2nd 13 (1) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Three turf wins include here (6f) in 2024; yet to hit form on turf this year but has taken a 14lb drop in the handicap and excuses here last week (upset in stalls, not clear run) when well-backed in an apprentice handicap; no form at this trip (from few opportunities) but not one to rule out. |

Some narrow defeats this term before convincing Navan win over this trip in August; raced on wrong side when sent off favourite there next time; below best at the Curragh (5f) latest but step back up in trip should be a help; goes on any ground. |

Gained fourth win of his career at Down Royal (5f, soft) last month; solid overall form this season; close fourth behind Sovereign Cry at Naas two weeks ago, form boosted by the third when scoring at Leopardstown on Thursday. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Did well for new yard last autumn, winning three times (5f, AW/good to soft), and he has run some solid races in defeat in 2026; this will be just his third run at 6f and others bring more pressing claims. |

Was in the form of his life around this time two seasons ago with back-to-back 6f wins for Michael O'Callaghan; signs of a revival when seventh of 21 at Naas last month; needs to provide further reassurance to become a betting proposition. |

Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 82 in March; best effort for some time when today's headgear tried in finishing never nearer fourth over C&D 17 days ago in testing conditions; 2lb lower now and Keane takes over; has to be respected. |

He did well after joining this yard last year and he's on a handy mark; he should get back on track sooner or later but this 10yo has failed to shine on his last three outings, over C&D on last two starts. |

Prolific AW performer gained a first turf success in emphatic fashion at Navan on latest (5f, gd-yld) under this rider, making virtually all for a 2.25l win; this longer trip fine but raised 10lb and this is a tougher race. |
