13th Oct 2025 Heavy 1m 4f 46y |
10st 2lb |
Four-time winner, latterly in 2023; continues to threaten now and again, as at Galway in August, but questionable whether he wants the ground this testing. |

Four-time winner for Andrew Slattery with last win coming in 2023; went close at Galway in August (1m4f, yielding) when Thatwilldoso won; posted another decent effort at Roscommon last time when third, behind Clear Quartz and Granite Bay; can go well again. |

The last of his four wins came in 2023; was just denied at Galway but was below that form at Chepstow five days later, both over this trip; 4lb higher but can run well if back to form. |

Six-time AW winner in Britain; first turf success at Ballinrobe (9.5f, good) in May, quickening well to score by 2.5l; not in the same form the last twice and drop in trip needs to spark a bounce-back. |

Four-time winner; modest efforts since joining this yard; has plenty of work to do to get closer to Lough Leane judged on latest Gowran run; would want it softer; others preferred. |

13th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 11lb |
C&D winner off 67 in December 2024, now 12lb lower; best run for some time when third to Without Love in January, a short-head off second-placed Doctor Grace; faces a renewal of more recent rivalry with Aingeal Dorcha and Storm Eric. |

9st 11lb |
C&D winner off 67 in December 2024; best run for some time off much reduced mark last month when third in three-way photo under today's rider, a short-head off second-placed Doctor Grace; one to consider off unchanged mark although draw not ideal. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Won over hurdles and on the Flat (12.5f) at Limerick last year; ran well over timber at Sligo on his penultimate start in a claimer but heavy defeat back on the Flat at Tramore (2m) on latest; well handicapped but needs to rebound back in trip. |
22/1 |

15th Aug 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Was in better form last year when winning at Limerick over hurdles and on the Flat (1m5f, good, rated 73); largely struggled in both codes since, although ran to his mark at Killarney last month when sixth (1m4f, good); took second in a Sligo claiming hurdle last time when well treated; others make more appeal. |

Dual AW winner whose turf win came over 1m6f on heavy at Listowel last year; back from hurdling campaign last season and stablemate of top-weight may just need this. |
14/1 |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 88y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time Flat winner has run well in defeat in maiden hurdles this year, including over C&D; below form in an Aintree handicap last time, but this isn't as competitive and he is one to consider. |

Three-time Flat winner; placed in three of four maiden hurdles at up to an extended 2m1f in Ireland this year but doesn't strike as being obviously well treated from an opening hurdle mark in the mid-120s. |

28th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 190y |
11st 2lb |
Very promising handicap hurdle debut last month at Kilbeggan, chasing clear leader throughout without landing a blow in 16-runner 2m3f contest (good); run here a fortnight later (2m4f) too bad to be true; takes a drop in trip and remains of interest. |

Three-time Flat winner and improving over hurdles. culminating in a decent second in a 2m3f Kilbeggan contest two weeks ago; trip is suitable and unlikely to be too far away. |

6th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole win came at Navan (1m2f, good) last April when trained by Joseph O'Brien; ran his best race since joining current stable when second of five at Carlisle (1m3f, good; first-time visor) last month but his task will now be to back that up. |
8/1 |

2nd 1 (2) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 39y Class 5 |
10st 9lb |
Won a Navan handicap for Joseph O'Brien last spring but suffered a succession of fairly hefty defeats on the Flat and over hurdles for this yard, including when beaten nearly 20l over C&D last month when back from a nine-week break; visor given a whirl. |
