9st 7lb |
All wins have been at 6f on AW or a sound turf surface but encouraging attempt at today's trip in premier Leopardstown handicap last month, not quite getting home after racing keenly when under 4l off stablemate Rahmi; could go close here if settling better. |

Has 15 AW wins to his name and been running well in defeat lately, including behind Daamberdiplomat; below his best in a C&D claimer last time so will have to improve upon that. |

Has 15 AW wins to his name, including eight at this venue but none since October 2023; did well to get within 3/4l of Valiant Force over 5f here in October and again took second behind that useful sort over this trip three weeks ago; stable 6-24 here this year; excellent chance at these weights. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won at Dundalk (6f, AW) in January but he's not come close to that form since and was was well held on recent stable debut; now goes back up in trip but he's 1-19 on turf and others are preferred. |

Dundalk regular who's done most racing over further, usually ridden prominently, and been off for three months; would want to see some market confidence for his new yard. |

Most recent of three wins came here nearly two years ago (6f, good-to-firm); has never run over this trip; hard to make a case for him. |

Last win came nearly two years ago (6f, good-to-firm); Curragh comeback run leaves him with a lot to find although is down to a career-low mark. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
10st 1lb |
Flopped at Chepstow 15 days ago but he had been in good form beforehand, including a near-miss over C&D (the winner has scored again since); looks the type to bounce back quickly. |

Ex-Irish filly who made a winning stable debut at Wetherby in April (7f, good to firm); added another front-running success at Chester in June (7f, good) and her latest second at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) represented further improvement; no obvious reason why she wouldn't be in the thick of it again. |

26th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
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. |
25/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 0m 5f 1y Class 4 |

Veteran whose form has dipped in last two outings, latest over C&D eight days ago; doesn't look as if he's about to improve his poor strike-rate (long time between drinks). |

Good turf spell in the autumn included a winning yard debut at Haydock (good) and a close second over C&D (soft); has run well on AW since but looks to have his share of weight; trainer runs five and won this in 2024. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 63y |
9st 13lb |
Beat course specialist Big Gossey when winning the Bold Lad Handicap here last September; no luck in running in two handicaps this term; won a Fairyhouse conditions race for the third time in four years before a fine second to Big Gossey in a Listed race here last time, a whisker in front of Bodhi Bear. |

Beat Big Gossey by 0.5l when winning the Bold Lad Handicap here last September but was in receipt of 10lbs; slow start to this season but back on song in Fairyhouse median auction race latest, winning it for the third time; unlucky in running when down the field in this last season; will like this ground. |

Won the first two renewals of this race in 2023 and 2024 and was runner up behind the talented King Cuan last year; won the Bold Lad (6f, yielding) last September and was then runner up in listed company at Naas; below best in two handicap starts this term but could bounce back. |
