1-35 over hurdles with the win coming at Kilbeggan in June (3m1f, good to yielding); some placed efforts over fences following that but tailed off over hurdles at Sligo last time (2m5f, good); hard to be confident in given her overall profile. |

Course specialist has won six chases in total, four of them here at 2m4f-2m7f on yielding to soft and good ground; runner up in this last season off 140 and same mark here; chance once a fall over the banks at Punchestown hasn't dented his confidence. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y Class 5 |
10st 11lb |
Ex-Irish 8yo; didn't get home after racing too freely over 3m on stable debut in June but was evidently well suited by drop to about 2m2f (if additional yardage is included) when scoring at Market Rasen (good) last month; could easily have more to offer for new yard; must be considered. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |
10st 6lb |
0-18 under rules but he was an easy winner of an Irish point in May; well held back over regulation fences at Uttoxeter (3m, good) last month but he took a strong hold and ran well to a point in that race; could benefit from this drop back in trip and it wouldn't be a surprise if he was in the mix. |

Ex-Irish maiden; not beaten that far when fifth of seven here (2m5f, good) three weeks ago and might be better suited by today's trip but others in this line-up have much more obvious claims. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 3m 0f 41y Class 4 |

Placed in a 3m point at Loughanmore for Tom Dreaper last October; badly hampered and unseated rider on stable debut, but left toiling behind Passengerontheship (beaten 78l) over 2m4f here 18 days ago; tough to consider on that evidence. |

No closer than 20l in five defeats over fences and was pulled up back hurdling last time; testing ground was no excuse as he enjoys the mud. |

C&D winner off 94 in December 2024; enjoys the mud; jumping issues evident in five poor chase attempts this season; needs to do better but a return to hurdling should help. |
