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. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
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. |

9th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
10st 13lb |
Dual 1m AW winner for former yard and went close on yard debut at Dundalk in November; modest enough form in four attempts hurdling, most recently poor Flat effort at Galway last month; seemingly lots to find. |

15th 13 (8) |
1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 7lb |
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. |

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. |

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 |

A winner of seven races on AW and three on turf; last turf success was in 2022, but this season's overall form provided a fair amount of encouragement; a three-time runner-up at this venue, including in June; had plenty of horses behind him at Leopardstown ten days ago. |

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. |

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. |

On a losing run but this Irish challenger arrives in good nick, not best drawn when sixth of 15 in 7f Galway handicap 24 days ago; in the mix again. |

9st 6lb |
Five-time winner on turf but 0-12 on the AW; has struggled since winning at Bellewstown (5f, soft) last October and well beaten in his two starts since joining this stable; back up to 1m; best watched. |

6th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 4 |

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. |

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. |

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. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 5 |

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. |
