Off the mark over this trip at the Curragh on yard debut last month under a positive ride in testing conditions by a diminishing margin; good effort at Gowran from 7lb higher a fortnight ago when runner-up (well-backed); not certain to replicate that form on AW. |

Progressive in 2024, winning three handicaps, showing a liking for good ground; failed to score last year and now back on last winning mark; hard to be confident after a poor run over hurdles last month; should be sharper now. |

Last year's win in this race came off 1lb lower (soft); winning hurdler has been running okay on the Flat of late but good bit more needed and draw hasn't been kind. |

Three-time Flat winner; last success was in 2021; hard to take any encouragement from his Flat/hurdles form this year. |

Three-time Flat winner is just 1-32 over hurdles; fourth at Wexford in April but has been below that twice since and others make more appeal. |

Five-time Flat winner is just 1-6 over hurdles; running just okay on the level recently and has stamina to prove for this trip now back over timber; others appeal more. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 37y |
9st 10lb |
Five turf wins at various trips, including over C&D last year off 57 (from stall one); good Leopardstown second (to Masego) in May wasn't backed up at Navan and has a wide draw to overcome here. |
10/1 |

Knows how to win and shaped as though her turn was near when running on well for second at Leopardstown (ahead of Jurality and Felicity Smoak); big chance if she backs that up off the same mark. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up in maiden hurdles at Clonmel in May and Punchestown last month; failed to match that form at Wexford last Friday; interesting that he makes a quick reappearance with Colin Keane booked; turf Flat form is modest but not without a chance if reproducing last winter's best AW form. |
7/1 |
|
6th 1 |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 50y |
11st 12lb |
Modest on the Flat but has shown an aptitude for hurdling; runner up in both completed starts at Clonmel (19.5f, gd-yld) in May and Punchestown (23.5f, gd-yld) 26 days ago; in between those runs unseated early at Kilbeggan; big player. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 3 |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 116y |
11st 12lb |
0-18 on Flat but promising introduction to hurdling at Clonmel when staying on well to take the runner-up spot despite suffering interference (2m4f, good to yielding) and the winner easily followed up next time; unseated at the second when saddle slipped at Kilbeggan; worth another chance, although trip is an unknown. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |

Winless from 16 career starts, six over hurdles; bounced back after being pulled up at Tramore to take a close fourth back there next time (2m, good); needs to build on that but hard to trust on overall form. |

10st 6lb |
Just one Flat win since 2021 but was only beaten a neck on soft by Tassarolo at Killarney last month; form knocked since and his better recent runs have come on softer ground than what's likely here. |

2nd 16 (3) |
16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 103y |

First reserve; five wins in all codes; has been running consistently in defeat on the Flat lately including at Limerick four days ago; needs more but easy ground might help. |

Got off the mark at Tipperary over a bit further than this but was poor at Roscommon 11 days later, a run which might have come too soon; previously ran respectably in three AW maidens; chance if rebounding. |

9th 9 (13) |
19th Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 46y |

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. |
9/2 |

1st 3 (1) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y |

Dual course winner at 1m4f, including on latest when making virtually all to score under this rider, with Power Of Prayer back in fifth; first crack at 2m so has stamina to prove. |
5/2 |

10th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Course winner over 1m4f; C&D form figures of 322 and this rider has been on board for both his previous wins; not beaten that far on latest and he is considered dropped in grade. |

Got a win on the board over 1m6f at Navan in August but well held afterwards, and is probably going to need this first run of the year. |
