8st 11lb |
Reeled off a hat-trick last summer at around 1m and better again when second in C&D conditions event in September; two poor runs this term however so hard to be confident in and wants easier ground. |

9st 1lb |
Five wins for Joe Murphy, latest of them over 1m1f at Tipperary in October; big prices and has shown little in four starts for this yard; mark tumbling, but prefers it soft and will be of more interest when the rain returns. |

9st 12lb |
Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; yet to find his form for this stable; reduced rating now (4lb below his last winning mark) but needs to show some spark before becoming a betting proposition again. |

Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; tailed off on debut for this stable in the Irish Lincoln; again struggled when dropped in class at Limerick; trainer/rider combined for a win at Limerick last Friday. |

20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Exposed mare who is 6-45 on turf; beaten in claimers on final two runs in Ireland in May and was well held in an Epsom handicap (6f, good; 33-1) on recent stable debut; has something to prove and all of her wins have been over further. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Exposed mare who was 6-44 on turf in Ireland; beaten in claimers on her two starts last month (7f and 1m, turf/AW) so it will be interesting to see how she goes in the market on this first stab at 6f since her only attempt over three years ago; stable debut. |
20/1 |

9st 10lb |
Eight wins, two of them here; latest success was over 7f at Naas in March and ran well in big-field contest at the Curragh next time; disappointed when odds-on for Gowran claimer last week, but picked up a few grazes and she's better than that. |

9st 3lb |
Has a record of 3-5 at this track and ran well enough over 1m2.5f in a premier handicap last time; probably didn't get home over that trip after a wide passage and can do better today. |

15th Aug 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Three course wins over 1m; best run this term when third at Leopardstown last time over 1m1f; this trip is a query but can be involved if staying. |

9st 5lb |
Hat-trick of wins here this winter, including two over C&D; upped 19lb for those wins and never counted when favourite in conditions event before okay effort in C&D handicap two weeks ago; has a bit to find on these terms. |

9st 11lb |
Hat-trick of wins here this winter; upped 19lb for those wins and disappointingly never counted when favourite in rated event won by front-running Carolina Jetstream on latest; bit to find off current mark. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 10lb |
One of two for trainer; in fantastic form since joining this yard, winning his last three handicap races here; won over 1m in November, and again in December when beating Carolina Jetstream by 1l; dropped back to C&D last time when seeing off Big Gossey by 1.25l; worse off with that rival now but likely to put in a bold show once again. |

11st 7lb |
Rated 73 on the Flat and a three-time winner in that sphere; good second on seasonal return in a Cork maiden hurdle (2m1f, good); promise in his two Flat runs following that; one of the main players. |

Three-time Flat winner over 1m1f on a sound surface; third of five behind subsequent Grade 1-winning hurdler Hello Neighbour on last Flat 2024 start at Roscommon; runner-up in a maiden hurdle at Cork last month on first run after a break; same placing on the Flat at Naas eight days later; has an edge over Instant Appeal; strong chance. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
8st 11lb |
AW and two-time turf winner whose last success came over C&D (good) last August off 9lb lower; may have needed latest run over 1m4f here after 105 days off so may take a step forward now dropped back in trip with that run under his belt. |
20/1 |

8th 6 (6) |
15th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Three wins have been over shorter trips, including here last summer (1m1f, good); only caught late over this trip on AW over the winter so has to be considered on turf return. |

8th 4 (2) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Course winner at 1m was reeled in close to home in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; well held by Genoah and Take Heart on previous start over 10.5f; could get closer at this distance with rider taking off 10lb. |

9st 4lb |
Gained her second AW win off 72 in February, but just 1-28 on turf; good fourth of 20 over 1m at the Curragh last time; best form over 7f/1m, and just one inconclusive run over this trip here last year; yet to finish in the first three in five visits to this venue. |

Dual AW winner gained her sole turf win from 27 starts over 7f at this venue last year; soundly beaten on last three starts and needs a return to best. |

Won a 7f handicap here last year, also won at Dundalk in February; not the most consistent and finished behind Highbury See See; closely matched with Navagio. |
