15th Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
French recruit showed promise on debut for this yard at Roscommon last July but didn't build on it in two subsequent runs; best form on good to soft and likely best watched on return. |

26th Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Ex-French filly bought for E62,000 in December; made encouraging stable debut at Roscommon earlier this month when fifth in first-time hood (1m2f, yielding); hood left off next time at Kilbeggan where she finished last (1m3f, yielding to soft); drops to 1m now and visor goes on. |

Ex-French filly bought for 62,000euros in December; made quite an encouraging stable debut at Roscommon (1m2f) and returning to further won't hurt; the hood tried last time is dispensed with. |

9st 13lb |
AW debutante; won a 1m2f Navan maiden in September 2024; sole start since a solid effort on handicap debut at Roscommon in July (10.5f, yielding); bred for this longer trip and could go well if handling this surface. |
11/4 |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 63y |

It wasn't a strong maiden she won at Navan (1m2f, good) last September but did well to overcome a slow start and still looked green; belated seasonal return but could well have more to offer entering handicaps. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Hasn't won since 2023 but the handicapper is relenting and he was only beaten 1l when fifth over 1m7f at Leopardstown last time; not beaten far over C&D in June off 4lb higher under this rider; in the mix. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 0y |
11st 5lb |
Four-time winner on long losing run; shaped okay when fifth at Naas on penultimate, but didn't build on that when beaten 7l over 1m5f here on latest; needs more upped in trip. |
11/1 |
|
5th 4 (3) |
16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |

Latest of four wins was over 1m4f three years ago, but he's on a good mark nowadays and came home well when around 3l fifth to Killyclogher Rose at Naas (1m3f); she's a lot less exposed though, and he might struggle to turn around that form. |

11st 2lb |
Flat winner is 0-11 hurdling but runner-up no less than five times (all at 2m), including seasonal return at Punchestown in June; Roscommon run since was below par but overall profile gives him claims. |
11/2 |
|
5th 1 |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 7f 204y |
11st 12lb |
His sole Flat win came at this track in 2024 and is now rated 71 in that sphere; lots of good efforts in 10 maiden hurdle runs including on comeback at Punchestown last time; penalised 8lb makes it difficult for him but should run well. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner's five wins include back-to-back successes earlier in the summer at Roscommon and Gowran; good run at former venue back at 7f on latest off this mark; should make a bold bid again. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 7 (1) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Decent strike rate of 5-22 (three wins here); back-to-back wins at Roscommon (7.5f, gd-yld) and here (9.5f, yld) in May-June; went up 10lb for those two victories but that wasn't the reason why she was pulled up at Down Royal on latest (lost action/scoped dirty); can only be watched after that. |
16/1 |
|
7 (1) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 96y |

Two wins last year, including over 1m at this venue; first two runs this term were moderate, including in a Sligo race in which Chico Guerrera was second; returning to form with a 7f win at Roscommon and backed that up over an extended 1m1f at Gowran with Chica Guerrera in third; can remain competitive despite an aggregate 10lb rise |

Runner-up in 1m4f handicap at Doncaster at three for Charlie Johnston; lightly raced for this yard, last of 7 on last month's comeback run on the Flat; reverts to hurdles for handicap debut having had three runs in 4yo maidens last year; market best guide. |

8st 10lb |
Won narrowly at Roscommon in June and went very close to repeating last year's success in a 1m4f Galway handicap; due to go up 3lb for finishing a neck second; holds an obvious chance, providing this does not come too soon; last year's second in this event came after the same four-day interval. |

2nd 8 (1) |
1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 12lb |
Four-time winner landed this race last season off 72; was running off that mark when winning at Roscommon on latest (10.5f, good); 6lb rise makes things tougher but she's got a nice low draw, ground is fine and should be in the mix again. |

Won three handicaps last season (one of them over C&D) and went up aggregate 18lb in the process; yet to hit form in three runs this term; now back on her last winning mark; worth considering. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |

1-21 on the Flat, although placed on several occasions; her C&D maiden hurdle run here (good) last time wasn't too encouraging; makes handicap hurdle debut now but others make more appeal. |

7th 4 |
12th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 166y |

Not a bad handicapper at around 1m1f/1m2f for Willie McCreery and fair form in three spins over hurdles, although tended to be too keen; picked up for 5,000euros in November; had a recent comeback run on the Flat. |

Likeable front running veteran goes well here; last won over C&D in May 2025 off this mark and was beaten a neck in this race last year, again off this mark; showed he retained ability when second at Fairyhouse in May; trip was too far on latest, could make a bold bid. |

Veteran won over 1m4f at Roscommon last year and was second at Fairyhouse in May; two Galway wins among his career tally of eight, so not a forlorn hope despite advancing years; second reserve. |
