27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Dual-purpose veteran and a multiple winner in both codes; won off 3lb lower at Sligo in May (1m6f, yld-sft); well beaten over hurdles at Galway on latest but is 9lb lower than when a 2.5l third over C&D last summer so not written off. |

20th Oct 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Placed at Dundalk on her penultimate start; now back on the mark off which she won over 1m4f at Roscommon in May; has won over this trip but probably more effective over further these days. |

3rd 3 (10) |
18th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 8lb |
Five career wins include two over C&D in 2023; also has finished second here on three occasions since last December; has lost form on turf since 1m4f win at Roscommon in May. |

4th Sep 2026 Good 1m 2f 145y |

Five career wins include over 1m5f here last summer and over 1m4f at Roscommon in May; well below best of late, so needs to bounce back. |

Wins last year came at Killarney and Dundalk; light campaign this year, most recently just denied over 1m5f at Tipperary in late August; 3lb higher so more needed. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
11st 2lb |
Dual-purpose; 1-29 on Flat; 0-6 over hurdles; her sole Flat win came over three years ago, but she had fair form in 2025, including when second in a 1m5f handicap at this venue; well clear of the remainder when chasing home an easy winner at Tramore on New Year's Day. |
5/1 |
|
6 (5) |
22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 55y |
9st 10lb |
Record of 1-27 with her win coming three years ago doesn't inspire hugely, but she has been running well in defeat recently; beaten a head at Down Royal in first-time cheekpieces off 62 in July (1m5f, good); creditable runs at Galway and Killarney following that (a neck behind Ehteyat at Killarney); interesting. |
8/1 |
|
5 (1) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |
9st 11lb |
No win since 2022 but went agonisingly close to ending the drought at Down Royal last month (1m5f, good) in first-time cheekpieces; merit in Galway fourth since so remains of interest. |

27th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Off the mark at second attempt for new yard when scoring over 1m4f at Roscommon last month in this headgear combination; that was after a four-month absence so quite possible she can back that up off 6lb higher. |
8/1 |
|
1st 15 (1) |
18th Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 48y |
9st 0lb |
0-8 last year for Willie McCreery; modest enough start for this yard when beaten 14.5l at Gowran (13.5f, soft); eased 1lb and new headgear combination needs to spark. |
20/1 |
|
7th 2 (6) |
22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 5f 160y |
9st 13lb |
Placed once in seven starts for Willie McCreery; her new trainer appears to have a better chance with Bhean Saibhre; tongue-tie for the first time |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 80y |
9st 6lb |
Six-time winner, landed successive handicaps at Bellewstown (1m6f) and Down Royal (1m5f, good); 6lb rise and muddling pace found him out at Gowran Park last time; extra distance will help and he can bounce back. |
9/1 |
|
8th 6 (3) |
7th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 100y |
11st 0lb |
Career wins number five and six last month when prevailing narrowly at Bellewstown (1m6f) and Down Royal (1m5f, good); has another 6lb rise to contend with but he's running well, unlike some in here. |
4/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
17th Jul 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Five wins, two of them on turf, including 25-1 success over extended 1m6f at Bellewstown earlier this month; needed every yard that day, and his previous win was over 2m; got an 8lb rise, which is likely to prevent a follow-up; placed once in seven previous runs here. |

1st Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 77y |
9st 6lb |
C&D second on soft a year ago; quite consistent but only 1-30 on the Flat, placed seven times; every chance of being in the money. |
4/1 |
|
6th 5 (15) |
4th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 194y |
9st 6lb |
Sole win came in this race last year off this mark; eyecatching efforts on both recent starts, at Sligo and when coming from way back to finish fourth behind Miss Australie at Navan last week; looks primed for a bold repeat bid. |

24th Aug 2025 Good 1m 2f 110y |

Tough task at the weights in a claimer last time and was third in a handicap at Gowran (extended 1m1f) the run before; rarely wins, though. |
25/1 |

2 (1) |
6th Aug 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 129y |
10st 2lb |
Record of 3-40 but has a mark of only 43 and can be opposed at these weights. |
