A 1m4f winner at Fairyhouse last year; however, has been poor both starts this year and needs a revival; trip looks a bit sharp. |

Fairyhouse winner over this trip last summer (good) before C&D second off 66, trained then by Sheila Lavery; poor comeback run (keen) at Naas last month so plenty of improvement needed. |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 84y |
10st 0lb |
Returns from a break/makes stable debut; consistent last year and winner of a Fairyhouse handicap last June off a mark of 56 (1m4f, good); 2.25l second at Galway and 3.75l third at Tipperary both over 1m4f on her final two starts last year mean she is now 13lb higher than her win. |

Fair on the Flat when based in Ireland but unplaced all five hurdling starts there; made low-key stable debut (on the Flat) last month and has quite a bit more to prove than some of these. |

9st 8lb |
Bagged back-to-back wins at Roscommon and Gowran in October last year on softer conditions; back to form at Gowran on heavy ground when reeled in late last time (1m, heavy); 4lb hike for last run seems harsh but cheekpieces on now and can go well. |

Was gaining a 12th win (five in claimers) on the Flat when taking Ballinrobe handicap last month in some style under today's rider; two days later folded quite tamely once headed over shorter trip at Naas, that race may have come too soon; veteran respected. |

11 time winner on the Flat; some good runs for Rebecca Menzies, highlighted by a selling handicap hurdle win last December and two placed efforts over 1m4f at Catterick in April; his stable debut 12 days ago at Limerick was okay when seventh of 12 (1m3f, good); declared to run in 7.50 Ballinrobe on Monday. |

Two wins in claimers on turf in May 2024; out of form at Dundalk until winning an apprentice handicap there at the beginning of last month; broke slowly at Leopardstown but finished to good effect, beaten under 3l in a 23-runner field; definite chance. |

6-11 over 10.7f-1m4f at Dundalk, including winning his last three under Rory Mulligan; 4lb higher mark and different track pose questions, but not opposed lightly. |

Bidding for a hat-trick after wins over the extended 1m2f (beating today's rival Daonethatgotaway) and this trip, accounting for Voice Of Reason, with Benavente back in fourth; capable of making his presence felt despite 12lb aggregate rise. |

Added his second course win in December when making virtually all over 1m4f and made light work of a 6lb rise when comfortably scoring over C&D last time, with Black Gem 3l behind; hit with a 7lb hike, but he may not be finished improving. |

On yard debut took a 1m2f Naas handicap under today's rider in June and ended a poor run of form with unlucky nose defeat by Longseoir over C&D last month, not clear run and allowing winner first run before running on really strongly at the finish; good chance of overturning that form give a clearer run if handling conditions. |
