13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner off 67 in December 2024, now 12lb lower; best run for some time when third to Without Love in January, a short-head off second-placed Doctor Grace; faces a renewal of more recent rivalry with Aingeal Dorcha and Storm Eric. |

3rd 5 (13) |
20th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner off 67 in December 2024; best run for some time off much reduced mark last month when third in three-way photo under today's rider, a short-head off second-placed Doctor Grace; one to consider off unchanged mark although draw not ideal. |

C&D winner off 12lb higher in December 2024; well handicapped but mostly out of form in 2025 and beaten 10.5l on return from 109 days off here last month; revival required. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 7lb |
Two-time Flat winner; makes handicap debut over hurdles after not showing a whole lot in qualifying runs; potential improver and needs checking in the market for shrewd yard. |
20/1 |
|
3rd 4 |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 6f 31y Class 4 |
11st 2lb |
Two 1m wins at Dundalk for his previous yard; only seventh of 12 in a 2m6f maiden at Downpatrick but the RPR he recorded that day firmly puts him in the mix. |
5/1 |

11st 12lb |
Did well on AW for Danny Murphy, two wins over 1m at Dundalk; second over 10.5f on stable debut when last seen in November; tailed off sole run over hurdles last summer. |

11-wins include five here, including in March claimer; most recent run at the Curragh in August was a solid one and has to be respected given his record here. |

9th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 10lb |
11-wins winner, 6-38 on turf; winner of four of his seven 2025 starts, best on AW, though won at Cork on penultimate start; 0-15 record at this venue is a possible negative, placed four times. |
8/1 |
|
9th 9 (11) |
13th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 4lb |
An 11-time winner, 6-37 on turf, including three over C&D; winning favourite in a six-runner contest last month, supplementing three Dundalk wins gained in the opening months of the year; 5lb higher than last time, but still 5lb below AW mark. |

Nothing like her best form in ten races since a 1m2f Ballinrobe win last June; unappealing in a sprint handicap at this stage of her career, although she won a maiden at around 6f at two. |

26th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Flat winner has shown a bit of promise in maiden hurdles; worth a market check on handicap debut with talented claimer easing his welter burden. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 100y |

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. |

5th 8 (9) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 195y |
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. |

Dam won five races from 7f to 1m4f, out of an unraced sister to the dam of Group 1 winner Zambezi Sun; newcomer faces a tough task against some very experienced rivals. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win came here over 7f in October 2024 and twice second here over 1m in opening months of 2025; no worthwhile form yet this year and has never raced beyond the mile; others preferred. |

10th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
10st 1lb |
C&D winner in October 2024 and twice second here in the opening months of 2025; probably need the run here in January and should be close to peak fitness now after a recent Curragh run. |

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 |
10st 0lb |
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. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Irish wins came on turf and his record on Polytrack at Dundalk wasn't great; poor this spring and goes without the usual blinkers for his new yard; would want to see support before factoring him in. |
16/1 |
|
8th 5 (5) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
One of two for yard; kept busy last year and four wins included one over C&D (good) in September off 77 and just 1lb higher here; subsequently won off revised mark of 84 at Bellewstown in October; badly out of form so far this year, however, and needs a revival. |

Five-time winner at 5f-6f on good and soft ground; is 2lb lower than when winning at Bellewstown in October but has struggled badly in both starts this season; others arrive in better form. |

9st 13lb |
Triple course winner over 1m-1m2f, including on firm; placed elsewhere over 1m4f; 1lb higher than when winning a 0-60 here last month; claims if repeating that effort but has a bit to prove after his last three starts. |
7/1 |

6th 2 (2) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Front-runner who has won three times at Bath (1m/1m2f) since the start of last month, but he didn't get home when fourth of nine over C&D (good to firm) nine days ago; may not face too much competition up front so could still be dangerous. |
9/2 |

4th 4 (1) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner; modest overall strike-rate but not in recent weeks having won three of his last five races, all victories at Bath (1m-1m2f); still on a fair mark and good to soft ground was a feasible excuse at Chepstow last Monday. |
