Six-time course winner, most effective at this trip; generally below his best since winning here last September; mild encouragement from his most recent run, but needs to reverse form with Comfort Line, Kitty Bear and Punk Poet; dropping in the ratings, now 9lb below last winning mark. |

On a long losing run but has run well from the front the last twice, most notably at Naas last time in a race he set up for closers; could be dangerous if allowed dictate but stall 16 is problematic. |

1-27 on the Flat; gained his first success in a 1m Gowran handicap at the start of the season but has lost his way more recently and hard to recommend on the back of a poor run at the Curragh last month. |

Is 3-34 on turf but no win in three years; okay run when fading into eighth at Leopardstown last month but couldn't build on that last time; cheekpieces go on. |

Third-place finish at Gowran was a rare positive recent effort (1m, yielding) on penultimate; didn't build on that in a similar contest there last time; three-time turf winner is well handicapped on his best form and cheekpieces go on now to try and recapture it. |
25/1 |

12th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 0y |

10st 2lb |
Has been in good form this season with wins at Killarney (1m, good) and Leopardstown (1m1f, good); placed in two of his last three starts; drops in class after a fine Curragh third when out of the handicap. |
8/1 |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Has been in good form this summer with wins at both Killarney and Leopardstown over slightly shorter; decent run at Ballinrobe afterwards, but Gowran effort on Wednesday was disappointing; 3lb out of handicap here. |

9th 4 (11) |
12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |
9st 12lb |
Has been highly dependable in recent months, two wins and three places from his last five starts; beat 21 rivals (including Medieval Night) at Leopardstown last month and has a good chance of reaching the money again following a Ballinrobe third that gives him an edge over Miss Crinshawn. |
