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. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Six-time course winner with his last win coming over 7f here in March last year off 72; modest 3-71 strike-rate on turf but excellent third of 20 over 1m at Leopardstown 11 days ago, headed in closing stages; big player in current mood under 10lb claimer. |

10st 0lb |
Six-time Dundalk winner with his last win coming over C&D this time last year off 72; one of three runners for the stable; hard to be confident given his modest turf win record (3-70). |

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. |

3rd 15 (17) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |
9st 6lb |
Two wins last year included this race off a mark of 80 when trained by Stephen Thorne; 8lb lower now, talented claimer takes off another 5lb and gets his favoured good ground for the first time this year; drawn wide but dangerous to dismiss. |
10/1 |

28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Veteran has won 12 of his 81 starts including five wins on turf; best form is on good ground, though he wasn't beaten that far over C&D on testing ground last October; has had a pipe opener at Dundalk and could outrun odds off 4lb lower. |

26th May 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Behind Buddy Batt and Lethimfly here in March but later posted a career-best RPR when winning over 6f back here in April and can be forgiven his subsequent defeat at Chester; hard to leave out of calculations. |
7/1 |

9th 4 (1) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 17y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Fully exposed 5yo but he recorded the best RPR of his 50-race career when winning at Dundalk last month (6f); while effective on turf, he looks high enough in the weights now returning to grass; well drawn but others appeal more for win purposes. |

Won over 1m at Dundalk in December but seems to have lost his way in his last few starts; needs first-time tongue-tie to work the oracle. |

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. |

Useful form in 2024, winning over this trip at Punchestown and Dundalk; failed to prosper last year; not a bad 7f run here on seasonal debut and may improve over the extra furlong. |

Punchestown handicap winner in September 2024 off this mark (1m, good) and added an AW win at Dundalk later that year; struggled on turf last season and not many positives in his 8l tenth at Dundalk when last seen in November. |

Won an ordinary 7f maiden at Dundalk in January; struggled in couple of turf handicaps of late before coming good in Gowran claimer (7f, good) last month; needs to find extra back in a handicap. |

8th Oct 2025 Yielding 0m 5f 180y |
10st 2lb |
Maiden whose form has featured a fine second of 23 over a slightly longer trip at the Curragh in June; not far off veteran stablemate Only Spoofing when fifth at Fairyhouse last month; interesting now after last week's Cork fifth when she ran on well after losing a prominent position at a crucial stage; blinkered for the first time. |
7/1 |

5th 12 (9) |
30th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 9lb |
0-10 but has often run well in defeat; good second at the Curragh (6.5f, good) in June off 2lb higher; not beaten far off this mark at Fairyhouse (6f, yielding latest); new cheekpieces need to eke out a bit more. |
11/2 |
|
5th 10 (2) |
22nd Sep 2025 Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
No wins in nine but was second in 23-runner Curragh handicap in June so has a race in her off this 2lb lower mark; latest effort there needs forgiving, though. |
12/1 |
