Having a good time of it of late on the AW, recording a third win there last month off 55; balance of turf form is on decent ground so could struggle in these conditions. |

Second runner for yard; dual-purpose; 3-26 over hurdles and rated 98; in good form on the AW in recent weeks and ran well on his only previous visit to this track; goes on any ground, notable jockey booking and not without a chance. |

25th Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 28y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Made it 3-6 since joining Daragh Bourke when winning at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) ten days ago, when she idled in front and was value for more than the 0.75l winning margin; went close over 16.2f at Newcastle previously; she might still be ahead of the handicapper up 3lb for last time; a first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. |
5/1 |
|
1st 1 (8) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 6 |
10st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and has run well on all three starts since, runner-up over 1m3f and 2m on last two occasions; latest was quite a rare run in cheekpieces; should be bang there. |
7/2 |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Winner at Ayr (1m5f) and Musselburgh (1m4f) in June and ran another sound race when neck second at Carlisle last time (1m3f); fair efforts on previous tries at 2m; one to consider. |

AW winner at three and dual winner over fences last year; couple of first-fence falls in March and quiet since; okay run at Navan in June; second to Stepdance over C&D last July, off this mark, and now meets her on a whopping 25lb better terms; only second time to wear blinkers. |

Dual-purpose Flat winner; 1-6 over hurdles and rated 120; promise in first two chase attempts, earning a rating of 117; beaten 17l into second of 12 behind talented Supersundae here (22.5f, gd-yld) in April; 9l fourth of 10 at Killarney (2m5f, gd-yld) 22 days ago; leading claims. |

1m4f AW winner is 0-15 on turf; beaten a head over 1m6f here last October on soft off 2lb lower; 1m was inadequate on seasonal return at Gowran; should come on plenty for that and not discounted back up in trip. |

20th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Sole victory from 21 starts came in a 1m4f handicap Dundalk in December 2024; slipped up at Dundalk on her final 2025 start after an excellent second in a 23-runner handicap at Navan; however, that was 1m6f, and this trip may prove inadequate. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 55y |
10st 9lb |
Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 150y |

Five-time Flat winner is 0-15 over hurdles but he took second over C&D (good, 20-1) earlier this month; chance if he builds on that but his overall form suggests he might not. |

Dual-purpose maiden went closest to scoring when just denied in a 2m6f novice handicap here last October (yielding) off 1lb higher; absent since December but on a nice mark and any market support could be significant, although drop in trip could be an issue. |
