9st 9lb |
Useful dual-purpose sort, 3-35 on Flat and second on 10 occasions; his only two stakes race wins from 29 attempts have been in the 1m2f Naas event in which he was third of eight on return; well beaten in the Vintage Crop on latest but will be more suited by testing conditions. |

Third career win came on final start last season in 1m Listowel Listed in testing conditions under a positive ride (just a day after being well beaten in a handicap); failed to beat a single rival home in 1m4f Curragh Listed on return; balance of form is over shorter than this so others preferred. |

11 wins in all, and seven of them at stakes level; C&D winner on heavy in April and Listed winner over extended 1m4f on soft at Limerick in June; held in Leopardstown Group 3 on quicker ground last time; second to Carmers over 2m at Down Royal back in May and now 4lb worse off. |

His record now stands at 11 wins and 16 places; he celebrated his 50th outing by winning a Listed race on his favoured soft ground at Limerick in June, his seventh stakes win; would benefit most from a marked deterioration of ground conditions. |

Hasn't won since Group 3 C&D win over two years ago; pick of four runs this term when unlucky in running fifth (beaten only 1.5l) here over 1m4f; hood didn't work at Galway latest and now left off. |

Former Group 3 winner who isn't handicapped out of contention and he didn't get the breaks when fifth to Fleetfoot at the Curragh most recently; could be dangerous in the new hood. |

One of two for yard; enjoyed a purple-patch in 2023 when winning three in a row (including a Listed race over C&D); lost way subsequently but signs of life when beaten just 3.25l here last month (1m2f, good); promising rider takes off 7lb; likes quick ground; could go well. |

Won twice last year including a 1m1f handicap at this track; later finished a fine fourth in a 1m2f Listed race; returned to action with a career-best effort under a big weight in the Irish Lincoln; this trip might be a bit short but is still a major player. |

9st 1lb |
Ex-Irish 5yo; 0-8 this term for new yard but is proving consistent, creditable third when favourite at Hamilton (1m1f) most recently; this may be the day to catch him, with tongue-tie worn for the first time. |

11th Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 1f 35y Class 3 |

Sole win came at Cork (1m2f, soft) in April 2024 when trained by Dermot Weld but has posted some good efforts for this stable, including when fourth of 11 at Ascot (1m, good to firm) last month; now steps back up in trip with each-way claims. |

0-13 since winning in April 2024 on his second start and the drop back to 1m poses a question; only sixth of nine at Sandown three weeks ago but running well previously; might have an each-way chance if bouncing back. |

20th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 2f 0y |

Dual winner at two is a useful colt but it's been tricky to find a spot for him this term; runner-up in Group 3 at the Curragh in May and placed in Listed contest at Deauville in August, both times over this trip, and not shamed in very valuable Grade 3 at Kentucky Downs last time when tried in cheekpieces (left off here); handles easy ground well and should be involved. |

9st 2lb |
Two easy 2yo wins (minor races) and runner-up in Group 3 Gallinule Stakes at the Curragh (1m2f, good to yielding) last month; however, he was no match for the winner and doesn't appear to be progressing; something to find. |

Fourth in last year's Irish Oaks and bounced back from a lesser run when getting the better of Layfayette in a Listed race at Leopardstown in October; lightly-raced 4yo who we may not have seen the best of yet but others preferred with race fitness on side. |
