9st 12lb |
Clicked last summer with a Fairyhouse hat-trick over 6f on nice ground; touched off at Naas two starts back and couldn't get in the clear until too late when beaten just over 2l in premier handicap at the Curragh last weekend. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
8st 9lb |
All three wins at Fairyhouse last season came at this trip on decent ground; back to form on favoured ground at Leopardstown early this month when beaten a short-head in three-way photo; 3lb rise takes him back to a career-high mark but capable 7lb claimer booked. |

3-20 on turf, all three wins at Fairyhouse last season; almost sprang a 33-1 surprise on seasonal return at Dundalk (6f) last month; 7f too far at Leopardstown on latest; not beaten far off 3lb higher over C&D last July; in the mix. |

10st 0lb |
Won a 6f Navan maiden early last season and made a bright start to the season when just denied over same trip in Fairyhouse all-aged handicap last month; bit disappointing back against his peers in Naas rated race since, too keen; step up to 7f not an obvious route, clearly needs to settle better. |

Won a 6f Navan maiden early last season and second over 6f at Dundalk six months later on only other juvenile start; made a bright start to the season when second in a recent 6f handicap at Fairyhouse. |

Green when winning a 6f Navan (good) maiden on debut and only beaten roughly 1l in follow up bid on AW; entirely unepxosed and warrants respect for a yard in flying form. |

Two of four wins have come here; recent C&D run behind Smoke Them Out leaves him with a fair bit to find but previous Fairyhouse run was solid and can't be ruled out; cheekpieces belatedly tried. |

9st 7lb |
All wins have been at 6f on AW or a sound turf surface but encouraging attempt at today's trip in premier Leopardstown handicap last month, not quite getting home after racing keenly when under 4l off stablemate Rahmi; could go close here if settling better. |
7/2 |

9th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 10lb |
Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap (good) on this card in 2024 and he's just 1lb higher now; solid effort over 1m at Bellewstown latest (soft); should get a strong pace to aim at here and not discounted. |
9/1 |

2nd 1 (14) |
11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 7f 205y |

Four-time AW winner is 1-19 on turf; is 2lb below that last turf win which came at Naas (5f, good) in May 2024; handles an ease but this trip may just stretch his stamina. |

21st Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 82 in March; best effort for some time when today's headgear tried in finishing never nearer fourth over C&D 17 days ago in testing conditions; 2lb lower now and Keane takes over; has to be respected. |

4th 6 (8) |
4th Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 0y |

Nine-time winner, most recently over C&D (soft) off 6lb higher in March; well behind Gerrit's Gem at Cork on latest; new headgear combination needs to spark a revival, well-treated if it does. |

First reserve; five-time winner loves the mud and solid placed form over 6f/7f early in the season; has had a break since unplaced run at the Curragh. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Useful sprinter who is suited by soft conditions; third in opening two 6f runs this season here (heavy) and at Naas (soft); upped in trip when runner-up over C&D last time; was 4.75l behind winner Red Charlie that day but now 14lb swing at the weights, although he had race-fitness on his side that day. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 7 (15) |
28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Useful sprinter in this grade; suited by testing conditions; worth a shot at 7f after two good runs at 6f in the last fortnight; third here with Merisi Diamond back in sixth; same place at Naas with Eichan San among those behind, not guaranteed to uphold that form. |

21st May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 16y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Turf winner (5f, good) in Ireland who scored at Southwell (6f, AW) on his stable debut in November; that 40-1 success hasn't been built on but this represents a drop back in grade; not confidently ruled out. |
3/1 |

9th 9 (7) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Quite useful on turf in Ireland; kept almost entirely to AW since moving to this yard in the autumn but he might well have been involved in the finish at Leicester (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago but for being pushed nearly over the rail a furlong out; interesting to see what he comes up with here. |
7/1 |
|
13th 13 (2) |
25th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Won on stable debut at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) in November and he's posted some solid efforts since then; hard to rule out another good run but this is a step back up in grade and sole turf win was 19 months ago. |

9st 13lb |
Three wins include twice over C&D last October; promising C&D comeback second in March, stiffer task in Listed company last time; one to consider back in handicap company, especially given his record here. |

Smart handicapper has won three times at this trip and posted a solid return at the Curragh; his race-fitness helps and this ground is fine but has a fair bit to find with some of these. |

Seven-time AW winner in Britain for Michael Appleby; no success since 2024, and Flat mark has dropped to a lowly 42; jumped badly and pulled up on his hurdling debut at Punchestown two weeks ago. |
