Chase, hurdles and Flat winner for Gavin Cromwell; makes AW debut here; hard to fancy on recent form. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Chase, hurdles and Flat winner for Gavin Cromwell; capable off this mark but needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat in a 1m Gowran claimer on debut for this stable. |

Versatile sort has won a chase, over hurdles and on the Flat; soundly beaten in final start for Gavin Cromwell at Thurles (2m, good) in October and off since; best watched in first run for new yard. |

10st 10lb |
Without a win for two years, but right back to form on his last two starts, especially when second wearing this headgear over 2m2f at Downpatrick last month; solid claims once more. |
5/1 |

2nd 6 |
31st Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 165y |
10st 8lb |
Six-time winner over hurdles and fences; somewhat in and out this year but was very much on a going day when narrowly beaten in a 1m7f handicap chase at Tramore last time; stable does well here and a clear chance if he can reproduce that; blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 |
16th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 140y |
12st 0lb |
Six-time winner, including over C&D in a novice chase two years ago; form has been in and out over the last 12 months but best effort in that time came over C&D when 4.25l second off 4lb higher in May; below form last twice, pulled up at Wexford 47 days ago; on a good mark if return to this track sparks him up again. |

One of his two chase wins came over C&D, that was in 2023; out of form this year and not easy to fancy at present. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 2f 110y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Three-time chase winner, latest at Stratford (extended 2m3f) in June, but 0-10 over hurdles; has left Shark Hanlon since a disappointing chase run at Uttoxeter last month but not out of this if reproducing his encouraging third off this mark at Market Rasen on penultimate start. |
6/1 |
|
8th 4 |
26th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
A third win over fences at Stratford last month (extended 2m3f) and it was only five days later when he was third off his lower hurdle mark; had 21 days off since but is 3lb higher than at Stratford in a race that should take more winning. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 3 |
5th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 139y Class 5 |
11st 12lb |
A third win over fences at Stratford on Tuesday and he's 9lb lower for this return to hurdling (0-9); has to be of interest with trip/ground ideal. |

30th Sep 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 110y |
8st 12lb |
Won on the Flat at Sligo earlier in the year and lots of decent runs in defeat since, mainly over hurdles; below form in that sphere at Listowel last time but one to consider back on the level. |
10/1 |

7th 3 |
24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
1-21 hurdles record is concerning; however, he has held his form well since winning on the Flat at Sligo in May; excellent run to take second in a valuable Galway festival event; similar display when runner-up at Cork only two days later; has had plenty of time to recover. |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 1f 165y |
11st 4lb |
Three hurdle wins; best effort this season was when just denied over fences at this track in July; not as good since and questions after being pulled-up on last two hurdle starts. |
20/1 |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 165y |
11st 2lb |
Pushed Lakefield Flyer all the way over 2m3f here last month but has since pulled up over hurdles at Galway and finished last of the four in a beginners chase; did face a tough task last time and this is more realistic. |
10/1 |

15th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
10st 12lb |
Maiden chaser last won in November 2022; went close in a handicap chase at Downpatrick last month off 104; pulled up over hurdles at Galway latest; likely up against it in this company. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 3f 61y |

Has won thrice over hurdles and once over fences; however, has been below form since his latest score at Downpatrick last year so has to get back to best. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 6f 28y |
11st 11lb |
3-20 over hurdles; shaped like the run was needed after six months off at Sligo on latest when 33-1; remains 2lb above last win and might need another run or two to hit top form. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 165y |
10st 13lb |
Fourth of 20 over hurdles on his penultimate start before a lesser show here over 2m6f; didn't run well in his last handicap chase either so not hard to have some reservations. |
12/1 |

15th Jul 2025 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 3lb |
Point-to-point winner yet to score under Rules; solid fourth at Punchestown (3m, gd-yld) on latest; nudged up 1lb for that and drops in trip; claims if he can back that up but that's not guaranteed. |

4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 4f 180y |

Three-time winner over hurdles and has a bit of chasing experience, but rated 99 in this sphere and won't be good enough here. |
25/1 |

25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 125y |
11st 6lb |
Last of three wins for Philip Rothwell came at Downpatrick last summer (2m3f); didn't land a blow but not entirely disgraced on yard debut in competitive handicap at Galway festival but good bit more likely required now. |

Last of three wins for Philip Rothwell came at Downpatrick last summer (2m3f); Clonmel claiming second in May his best recent run; debuts for new yard here. |
