Four-time AW winner and 1-22 on turf; second of 16 at Gowran last time (good to firm; has form on slower) and didn't quite see out the extended 1m1f; considered. |

10st 2lb |
Two wins in 2024 but has been in the handicapper's grip since; not a bad run at Fairyhouse latest (1m2f, good) but still beaten 8l and didn't look to be crying out for this longer trip; down in grade but others appeal more. |

Useful form in 2024, winning over a mile at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year and lots to find on two efforts this term; tries this longer trip again. |

17th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Beaten 16 times since a Dundalk maiden win in October 2024; series of good runs this summer, including tried in blinkers at Ayr last week, but he has work to do with Runninsonofagun on that evidence. |
11/2 |

8th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Sole win in 7f AW maiden at Dundalk as 3yo; slightly frustrating for this yard as he's been involved in some tight finishes for them, including in this race last year and when just behind Supreme Clarets at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) in July, but fitting blinkers could help; solid chance, if so. |

10st 1lb |
Won a 7f Dundalk maiden on his second start but beaten 14 times since; went close at Musselburgh (7f, good) last month though and a subsequent lesser effort can be partially excused by him getting upset in the stalls. |

11st 12lb |
Dual 1m AW winner for former yard and went close on yard debut at Dundalk in November; modest form in five attempts hurdling, most recently when beaten 47l in a 2m2f conditions hurdle here three weeks ago; tough task giving weight to all. |

Two-time 1m AW winner for former yard; went close on debut for this stable on last Flat start at Dundalk (10.5f); no impact over hurdles last thrice and 0-7 record on turf on the Flat doesn't inspire confidence; drawn wide. |

Has shown improved form on the Flat lately, winning handicaps at Ballinrobe and Tramore before runner-up at the latter track; now rated 81; was a 2m maiden hurdle winner at Thurles last November; can be competitive. |

Up a total of 13lb for back-to-back wins at Ballinrobe (1m5f, yielding) and over C&D (good) when 2.75l ahead of Marmeladova (that rival 3lb better off now); finished last at Gowran last time (1m5f, good to firm), which is not fully explained by her new rating; can do better back here. |
