Six-time winner, landed successive handicaps at Bellewstown (1m6f) and Down Royal (1m5f, good); 6lb rise and muddling pace found him out at Gowran Park last time; extra distance will help and he can bounce back. |

Five wins, two of them on turf, including 25-1 success over extended 1m6f at Bellewstown earlier this month; needed every yard that day, and his previous win was over 2m; got an 8lb rise, which is likely to prevent a follow-up; placed once in seven previous runs here. |

Four wins over jumps for previous yard; 0-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current stable but remains in form and has a fighting chance off current mark provided he takes well to the surface on belated AW debut. |

2nd 2 |
14th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
Ex-Irish gelding who's looked high enough in the weights since returned to hurdles for his current yard; well held off a 3lb higher mark at Sedgefield last time and needs to improve on that, albeit he's been found a weak-looking race. |

Won this last year off 4lb lower; some good runs since and ran a solid race when beaten 2.25l into sixth over 1m7f at Leopardstown 15 days ago; 2-4 here so has to enter calculations. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 0y |

Capable dual-purpose performer won a nice pot on the Flat at Killarney last August off 4lb lower; stepped forward from below-par seasonal return when a 4.75l fifth at Fairyhouse on latest (3l behind Not Just Any Eagle); eased 2lb and place chance. |

Capable under both codes, both Flat wins coming in 1m6f Killarney handicaps, last summer off 72 before good second at Newmarket (2m2f); Curragh comeback run in late May was poor but more expected of here. |

12st 0lb |
Four wins over hurdles, the most recent coming in this race last year off 2lb lower on yielding to soft, his second win over C&D; out of depth on the Flat last time, but this is more suitable and acts on good ground; player. |
8/1 |

6th 5 (3) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 71y |

A winner of six races (four over hurdles and two on the level); however, a Flat rating of just 40 leaves him with heaps to find on these unfavourable terms. |

8th 4 |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |

Dual-purpose; 4-33 over hurdles; last won at Killarney off 4lb lower last July (20.5f, yld-sft); good ground is fine but lacks a run and overall record when fresh suggests he'll come on for this run. |

12st 0lb |
In fine form after blinkers were added in early summer, winning at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) and Hexham (3m, good), before disappointing at Market Rasen last month when reportedly unsuited by the track; retains chase potential and could prove up to this mark if bouncing back. |

6yo who made it 4-10 over fences when completing a double with his late thrust at Hexham (3m, good) last month; up 3lb but he's been as good as ever in his last two starts and he's strong stayer as this trip; key player. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three handicap hurdles on the bounce at 2m5f-2m7f on good ground; generally struggled since and his latest two runs have been fairly dismal; returns to chasing for the first time since 2024, when he didn't set things alight in three beginners'. |

Three-time chase winner, including at Killarney in May (3m2f, good to yielding) is 0-6 over hurdles so has a 24lb lower mark in this discipline; hasn't contested a hurdle race since 2024 and never for this yard so he looks like a huge danger to all off this mark but this trip looks tight for him. |
