10st 13lb |
Two wins on the Flat in 2025 but losing run over hurdles stretches back to a Grade 2 win at Cheltenham in December 2020; new yard now and has been off since October; may need this run. |

Veteran has had a good season on the Flat, recording 2m wins at Tramore and Clonmel; decent run back at 1m4f on latest and now reverts to hurdles for first time since January 2024 (Grade 2 Cheltenham novice winner in his day). |

10st 13lb |
Dual-purpose maiden had been placed over hurdles for Gordon Elliott but has been poor in two starts for this yard (both here) and needs improvement on her best form anyway. |

11st 1lb |
0-16 on the Flat; best effort over timber came in a 2m maiden hurdle here last year but was still beaten 13.5l in that contest; not obviously well treated for handicap debut and best watched. |

Regressive Flat maiden wasn't beaten far on hurdling debut last year before falling; will be better suited to handicaps. |

10st 10lb |
Took a step in the right direction when fourth at Sligo (2m2f, good); built on that when narrowly denied at Bellewstown (20.5f, gd-yld) on latest; nudged up 2lb but is 4lb below her last win and handles any ground; big chance. |

26th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 110y |

Five-time Flat winner has a record of 2-20 over hurdles, including a win over this trip; posted a decent run at Sligo last time over 2m2f and can be involved with the extra 2f to suit. |

Sole win came off 1lb lower at Down Royal (1m5f, good) last September; close third behind Anightaway and Eastern Wind at Sligo on latest and his good run over 1m5f here in June wasn't his first solid effort at this track (fourth in this last year); chance. |

Dual Flat winner but nothing since 2022; yet to score from 28 runs over hurdles; ran well over C&D in July when runner-up off this mark; pulled up over hurdles next time; he's better in this sphere, but long losing run drastically reduces his appeal. |

Second reserve; best efforts have come on good ground, including C&D second last season off 47; soft ground against him of late and similar scenario here. |

Wasn't beaten far here on penultimate start over further; didn't build on that at Sligo subsequently and tough race to break the maiden tag. |
