25th Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 1lb |
Curragh maiden winner; chased home A Boy Named Susie (unlucky in the Irish Champion Stakes) in the Royal Whip at the Curragh and was a creditable third in the Group 2 Solonaway Stakes at Leopardstown; could improve more, but probably overshadowed by the two principals here. |

3rd 8 (1) |
12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won a 6f Cork maiden last year before a poor run in a Fairyhouse Listed race; returned from a 328-day absence with a decent runner-up effort in the 1m2f Royal Whip Stakes at the Curragh; has to take a significant step forward from that today. |

16th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |

Useful form in juvenile maidens, culminating in a 6f Cork win on yielding-to-soft last September; found to be lame when an unplaced favourite for a 6f Listed race at Fairyhouse later that month; makes a belated return; may outrun his 89 rating but faces a huge task |

Maiden winner over 6f last year had been running mostly in stakes company until making his handicap debut at Cork last time (5f, good to firm) when eighth of 11 and behind a few of these; dropped 3lb but more needed. |

Went close at both Gowran and Roscommon over the summer before second career win last month when scoring over 1m at Listowel under a positive ride (Eddie G a closing third); 8lb rise but rider now takes off 5lb so should remain competitive. |

Dual Irish winner last term but he's not got going for his new yard this year; last turf start hinted he might be finding his level but he was beaten 10l on AW five weeks ago; well handicapped if this return to grass proves a positive. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 1y Class 5 |

Two sprint wins in Ireland as 2yo, including when making all at the Curragh (6f, good) last August; well handicapped on that form but he's struggled since and has form figures of 89089 for his current yard; lost to prove. |

Has contested Listed races over this trip at the Curragh and 6f at Fairyhouse since debut fourth behind the useful Kansas (rated 101, second in the Flying Childers) in a decent 5f maiden at Tipperary in July; rated marginally superior to Bad Boy Rizz and Ennoble. |

Decent efforts both starts, in a 5f Tipperary maiden (good) and a 5f listed heat at the Curragh (good) last month when a 7.25l fourth; gelded since and needs to find improvement to get involved here. |

3yo filly; won on debut at Gowran (7f, good) last September and close third in Listed race over this C&D (yielding) the following month (Howd'yadoit fourth); run may have come too soon when soundly beaten in Curragh Group 3 six days later; 18-1 and no show on seasonal return in Gowran handicap (7f, soft); needs to leave that behind. |

Course and distance maiden winner on debut last year; ran big race when beaten under a length in Listed company at Fairyhouse afterwards; below that form when well-held in Group 3 206 days ago but that may have come too soon; stiff opening mark but open to improvement; one of three for yard that have won four out of the last five renewals. |
