9st 6lb |
Four AW wins; sole turf win came at this course (7f); didn't count first two starts for this stable but failed to get a clear run late on when seventh of 15 at Limerick (1m) eight days ago (Bucaneer's Spirit third); interesting off career-low mark. |

9st 8lb |
Four AW wins, sole turf win came at Leopardstown (7f); didn't count on both runs last month for current yard under 7lb claimer but badly hampered by loose horse second occasion; senior rider takes over and don't rule out off career-low mark. |

Four AW wins, sole turf win came at Leopardstown (7f); late headway into midfield on recent yard debut at latter venue, remains unproven over this far. |

8st 7lb |
Not the easiest to win with, as record of 1-24 on turf illustrates; however, is now 2lb below that sole success and not beaten far in fillies' handicaps over C&D on penultimate or at Limerick on latest; place chance. |

3rd 3 (8) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
No win since June 2024 at this course (7f); third to Amemri in this race last year; standout effort last term a fine second in premier fillies' handicap at Leopardstown (1m, good to yielding); best run of the season at that venue eight days ago (1m1f, soft; Spanish Temptress fourth) when a staying-on third after a slow start; player. |

No win since June 2024; standout effort last year a fine second in premier fillies' handicap at this venue (1m, good to yielding); 5lb lower here but hard to fancy on this season's efforts and testing conditions also a worry. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Prolific winner at around this trip, latest in Gowran claimer nearly a year ago; 0-9 for current yard but Down Royal second to Faoladh puts him in the mix on ground he'll handle. |
12/1 |

8th 2 (6) |
11th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 7f 35y |
10st 0lb |
Two wins last year on good ground, including at Roscommon off 80; bounced back to form with encouraging third at same track last month before backing that up under positive ride at Down Royal 13 days ago when 1.5l second to Faoladh; definitely capable off this mark but soft ground a concern. |
8/1 |

2nd 3 (12) |
29th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Two wins last year on good ground for different trainers, including 7.5f Roscommon handicap off 80; now 10lb lower plus talented claimer takes off another 5lb; got his favoured ground when eyecatching third of 14 at Roscommon from tough draw 18 days ago; big chance. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y |
9st 3lb |
Last win came in a 1m Killarney claimer in 2024; fifth in a claimer last time at Bellewstown, only 24 hours after finishing fourth in a handicap at the same venue; overall handicap form has been satisfactory; needs to raise his game |
10/1 |

5th 8 (7) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 195y |
9st 9lb |
Locally trained; ran well over 7f at Down Royal on penultimate when a 1.75l fourth; midfield over an inadequate 6f at Fairyhouse last month; return to 1m a plus and last win came in a 1m Killarney claimer in 2024; fourth 6.10 here on Thursday. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 211y |
10st 2lb |
Four wins at up to 1m but 0-19 for this yard; good effort despite racing keenly when close fourth of 14 at Down Royal (7f, good) on penultimate; dwelt over 6f at Fairyhouse on latest; worth a market check for local handler with Colin Keane booked. |

10st 0lb |
Six-time C&D winner for John McConnell including this race in 2023 and 2024; modest efforts first two runs for this yard but is now 4lb below his last success and a big run would come as no surprise. |
18/1 |

8th 8 (12) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Six-time winner on the AW; back from nearly a year off the track when sixth of 13 here (7f) behind a couple of today's rivals on stable debut; yard's runners highly respected at this track and he's entitled to strip fitter; wide draw. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 50y |
9st 7lb |
Heavily-raced gelding; gained a tenth career win at Dundalk in April and seems to be holding his form well; 3l second at the Curragh and a fair fifth at Bellewstown 13 days ago; 0-11 record at this venue is a negative, placed three times. |

9st 7lb |
A 9yo with ten wins on the board and arrives here in good form, last time overcoming a slow start to finish second at the Curragh (7f); won't mind returning to further and he's firmly in the mix. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 9 (7) |
4th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Heavily-raced gelding recorded a seventh AW win recently; turf record is less persuasive (3-71), though some encouragement can be taken from last month's third of 20 at Leopardstown. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 183y |

Four-time winner over shorter trips and only just denied over 2m at Thurles on final start last season; recent hurdle run should have put him straight and not one to rule out. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |

Only had two runs over hurdles, last time winning a maiden on good ground at Tramore (first-time hood); good and bad on the Flat since then; lacks jumping experience for a race of this nature. |
