11st 9lb |
Last win came at Tramore in August but has lost form and struggling in claimers lately; cheekpieces. |

9th Jun 2026 Good 2m 2f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Two of her three wins over hurdles have come at Tramore; a long way below her best in a similar race to this at that course in April; hard to fancy following remote seventh behind Rich Belief at Wexford. |
8/1 |

7th 2 |
27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 8lb |
Two of her three wins over hurdles have come at Tramore; however, she was a long way below her best in a similar race to this at that course last month; that run was prefaced by weak form at Dundalk during the winter. |

11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 3y |
9st 11lb |
Second runner for yard; four AW wins; 1-16 on turf; kept very busy on AW in recent months, on latest collared close home when runner-up over 7f off current mark; 7lb claimer takes over from Colin Keane; one to consider. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 5 (5) |
27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Four AW wins up to an extended 1m1f, twice over C&D including in January off 74; kept busy since over various trips, most recently best work at finish after a slow start (stalls slow to open) when beaten 1.5l over 6f; return to 7f to suit and okay mark so one to consider. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |
9st 4lb |
Won this event last year, following several placed efforts during the summer; should be in peak form for her repeat bid after making a return to form at Navan a month ago, stayed on well after being denied a clear run; tongue-tie fitted for the first time, and Colin Keane aboard for the first time this season, underlining her chance. |

11th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 40y |

Got off the mark at Gowran (9.5f, good) last summer, two runs this term well below best; much more needed now, does handle fast ground. |
12/1 |

13th 7 (13) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 190y |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark at Gowran (9.5f, good) last August off 3lb lower; some decent efforts in defeat subsequently; may have needed latest run at Gowran (1m) after a 206-day break and this trip more suitable, so not discounted. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Laytown winner in 2024 and got her head back in front on turf this year; unproven at this trip though and it was a low-key effort back at Laytown earlier this month. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
9st 9lb |
The ground was good to yielding when winning over Galway's extended 1m in July; could have run better at Dundalk as she has form there, but wouldn't put a line through her. |
12/1 |
|
9th 13 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
8st 9lb |
Boasts C&D form figures of 211; roared back to form with a win over 8.5f (yld-sft) at the Galway festival on latest; 7lb rise makes things tougher and this is harder but has to be respected given her fine record at this venue. |

9st 9lb |
Four wins at Newcastle when trained in Britain and won over this trip at Down Royal last summer; two low-key runs on first two runs for this yard but showed more when sixth of 19 at Navan last time; on a good mark if he can build on that. |
7/1 |

9st 7lb |
Won over 1m3f at Down Royal last year and over an extended 1m1f at Gowran in June; unplaced on next two starts; came good again when scoring at the Galway festival on yielding-to-soft; could feature again despite being 7lb higher. |
6/1 |

1st 14 (6) |
30th Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |

Won over 1m3f at Down Royal last year and 9.5f at Gowran last month; not bad runs twice since but needs more off this mark. |
12/1 |

6th 7 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Both wins have come right-handed on yielding ground, over 1m3f last year and under a brilliant ride from the champion jockey over 9.5f at Gowran last month; has run well this way round, too; handled quick ground okay when ridden to get 1m4f (upped to this grade) at the Curragh last time; cheekpieces swapped for blinkers. |

10th 7 (3) |
8th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 30y |

Dundalk third early in the year hasn't been replicated, most recently after a summer break when dropping out quickly at same venue last month; 3lb lower turf mark but opposable. |
16/1 |

9 (6) |
19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 8lb |
10-race maiden who ran well for a long way when third over C&D in April; didn't build on that in two subsequent runs and was tailed off when last seen at Roscommon; probably best watched after 123 days off. |

Winner on soft at Sligo in 2023 and added 1m4f Dundalk AW win this time last year; recent runs at latter venue leave him with a fair bit to find however. |

9th 8 (11) |

His two wins include a C&D score last October; mixed form on turf this year and beaten nearly 7l over 1m2.5f here last week; this trip suits better but still needs more. |

Off the mark at the 14th attempt over C&D last month off 7lb lower; didn't count back on AW 13 days later but don't rule out. |

19th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Off the mark at the 14th attempt with a 1m2f success at Navan earlier this month; needs to prove she's at least as effective on AW now operating from 7lb higher. |
7/2 |

24 (7) |
6th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 10y |

Revelation since dropping back to this trip with the addition of blinkers, and being ridden forward, with wins both here and at Naas, only worn down late at latter venue also; dropped out tamely at the Curragh before a much livelier display here last week, third in a 6f event after making much of the running. |
