11st 8lb |
Useful Flat performer, six wins, including two Listed and the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot, rated 108 at his peak; maiden hurdle winner 12 months ago, best effort when third behind subsequent Grade 1 winner Irancy in a 2m Grade 2 novice hurdle at Fairyhouse at Easter; struggled over a longer tip in a Punchestown Grade 1. |

11st 12lb |
Useful Flat performer who got his act together over hurdles when third (beaten roughly 2l) in the Grade 2 novice hurdle at Fairyhouse last month, form that received a timely form boost on Tuesday with Grade 1 success for Irancy; quite possibly more to come at this trip (half-brother's best form at 2m4f) and not one to put a line through. |

Mostly hurdling this year and has faced some stiff competition but acquitted himself well at times; sole win over fences came in 2020 and pulled-up last chase start in January. |

Won this in 2023 but hasn't looked the force of old this year and arrives on the back of a low-key effort. |

Has plenty of back-class and didn't run at all badly in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham; however, it was off level weights when just ahead of My Gaffer last time and will need to run better to win this, even with Finn Brickley taking off 7lb. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y |
11st 8lb |
Five-time hurdle winner; now 2-10 over fences having made all to score readily over 2m4f Listowel a month ago; won this race last year as a prelude to a fine effort in taking second place in the Galway Plate; faces a tough task this time, since he meets Daddy Long Legs on 12lb worse than handicap terms. |

11st 2lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who is 1-9 over fences, though was runner-up in last summer's Galway Plate; all the sharper for his comeback run when beaten 4l in a 2m4f Grade 3 at Killarney three weeks ago and he's a player on these terms. |

11st 0lb |
Five-time hurdle winner who is 1-8 over fences, though was runner-up in last summer's Galway Plate; his below-par run in a Grade 3 handicap only 12 days ago (after a lengthy break) dampens enthusiasm. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |
11st 0lb |
Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles, making all over 2m7f at Clonmel in April and fair fourth here following month (2m4f); return to longer trip to suit and yard going well. |

Dual chase winner who is rated lower over hurdles; won this last year and he returns on the back of a narrow win at Clonmel (2m7f); has to enter the equation. |

Two-time chase (including here) and hurdling winner has failed to exploit his lower hurdles mark on his last three starts; likes it here but remains 5lb above his last hurdles win and stamina to prove for this trip. |

11st 10lb |
Useful dual-purpose sort came back from a huge absence this term; well beaten over hurdles and fences on first two starts but back to form when a 20/1 winner of the Galway Blazers Chase; big player if repeating that. |

Dual-purpose sort has returned from a mammoth break with two poor runs and he is best watched. |

Dual-purpose sort had run well in defeat in some novice chases some years ago but remains best watched on second start off a huge lay-off. |
