24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Looked set for a big season after his Listed win at Cork but it hasn't materialised; upset in stalls when soundly beaten again upped to 6f at Naas latest; however, he has C&D form figures of 132, including a head second in this last year, so the return to this venue offers hope of a revival. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 205y |
9st 9lb |
Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit. |

Last win was in 2022; encouraging signs lately, notably a good effort in a recent Listed race at Cork, not far off Likedbymike then; retains enough ability to be competitive in good company. |

3rd 1 (6) |
14th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Ran perfectly well off 96 in a Navan handicap last week (5f, good) but he's without a win since 2022 and looks vulnerable on these terms. |

3rd 2 (1) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

No win since 2022; hasn't looked like regaining the winning thread in three runs this term; behind The Highway Rat and Bodhi Bear at the Curragh (6f) latest; eased 2lb and the drop back to 5f is a plus, but the forecast rain is a concern. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Two good efforts for his new yard in May, beating 13 rivals in a Class 2 handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) off 3lb lower; only midfield in the Wokingham next time and he was left trailing by King Of Light at Windsor 12 days ago; others appeal more. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Has run all over the place for different yards and in good form for this one, finishing close up in a big 6f York race before winning at Thirsk (6f, good); had a very stiff task in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot where he did well to hang on to his lead for as long as he did on the wrong side of the track; this easy 6f will suit better; can go well. |
13/2 |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Exotic career includes races in the US, Britain, Ireland and on snow for various yards, but he comes here in fine form over 6f for this one, having finished close up at York (good; under 2l behind runner-up Binhareer) before winning at Thirsk; 1lb badly in under a penalty and has a harder task. |

Nine-time winner, including twice over C&D; no joy yet this season; ran better than the bare result from 10lb out of the handicap in the Rockingham; finished well in the recent Naas event won by Sovereign Cry; not ruled out. |

Nine-time winner including over C&D; no joy yet this season but ran better than the bare result from miles out of the handicap at the Curragh last weekend; this more realistic and lurking on a dangerous mark. |

One of two for yard; has won four times at 6f-7f and is 2-2 at this track; sole win last year came in a three-runner auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good); subsequently placed in Listed and Group 3 company; had a few of these behind when a 3.5l third at Cork (6f, soft) on seasonal return; sharper now but has never won over 5f and Billy Lee prefers Bonus Time. |

Four wins at 6f-7f with his best effort coming when unluckily denied by Art Power in a Group 3 (soft) at the Curragh last autumn; below form next time at Ascot but is rated 109 and this ground suits so can be a big player. |

3yo's sole success came in a 6f Naas maiden last October; placed in a listed race at Doncaster later that month (6f, soft) but two runs this season have been well below that level; well beaten off 96 in the Bold Lad latest; hard to make a case for. |

10st 0lb |
Mostly campaigned (without success) in Listed company since winning off 77 at Chepstow (5f, gd-sft) last August; remains 10lb above that last success but a repeat of her 3l Cork fourth on penultimate would give her a squeak back in handicap company and she'll be suited by a strongly run race. |

9st 6lb |
Unplaced in seven races (six of them Listed) since winning a Class 4 handicap at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) last August; ran okay on Sunday but she will need more to take this; blinkers the headgear of choice. |

Three-time winner in handicaps; has finished behind Keke in her last two races but wasn't too far away last time at Naas (Listed) despite fluffing the start; 80-1 that day but won't be anything like those odds here; could feature. |

Very promising start to her career, winning a C&D maiden in September 2024 before narrowly denied in Naas rated race on next start in June 2025; highly tried to no avail since but definite signs of life when not beaten that far in 5f Listed race at Cork last time (good) and wasn't disgraced in C&D Group 2 on penultimate; return to 6f a positive and could outrun likely odds. |

Yet to win this year but has been running very well in defeat; chased home Valiant Force over C&D latest (Black Forza and The Highway Rat behind); fine third in the 5f Group 2 Sapphire Stakes earlier this season; won her maiden here (6f) and she should be in the mix again. |

Went close in two early season maidens and bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when beaten a short head at Cork a fortnight ago; has shown plenty of speed, so 5f will probably be fine and she sets a solid enough standard on form. |
