9st 6lb |
Won his maiden here and added a rated race at the Curragh two weeks ago (7f, soft); nudged up 3lb but for that but it seems a fair rise given the RPR he produced. |

Won a Naas maiden in testing ground over this trip on seasonal debut; placed in conditions races over 1m and 6f after but was poor after a break in a Roscommon handicap last time; questions now. |

Won a 7f Naas maiden in testing ground in March before a solid run at Cork (1m) behind a quality rival; 6f on fast ground didn't suit last time but back on an easy surface at 7f will and is respected on handicap debut. |

9st 13lb |
Sligo maiden winner on soft last year and was later runner-up in a Newmarket listed race, both over 6f; by far the best of three runs this term when second in a 6f Naas conditions last time; the blinkers worn then are retained but this trip is a question. |

Fully exposed 9yo with three wins apiece on turf and AW; second at Leopardstown in August, three starts ago; other than that, 2026 form does not amount to much. |

Five-time winner was busy early in the season, winning over this trip at the Curragh; stayed on late at Roscommon last time and should have improved from that; good draw and should go close. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 2lb |
Soft or heavy ground is crucial for him, and wisely was given the summer off after winning at the Curragh in April; twice beat Mercurial over C&D in 2024, including in this race; chance is dependent on how much rain falls. |

Four-time winner whose best form has on soft and heavy at around 7f; got those optimum conditions over C&D last time when third, finishing 1.75l behind Mickey The Steel and 6.5l behind Red Charlie; cheekpieces added to the tongue tie now, but may struggle to reverse form. |

Won this race in 2020 and again last year off 1lb higher; likely to have needed his latest outing when behind a few of these at Roscommon and Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching booking; looks to have been laid out for this; interesting. |

Back from a break with a C&D (soft) second 1.5l behind Earls early last month and same mark now; won her maiden over C&D on heavy and not a bad run at the Curragh latest; solid chance if the visor ekes out a little bit more. |

Won Roscommon maiden on heavy last season and very lightly raced since, returning from five months' absence with fine second at same venue early this month, up with pace throughout when second on soft; will appreciate any softening of the ground. |
