1st 5 (6) |
29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Mixed form this season but she kept on for an encouraging fourth at Hamilton (1m5f, soft) four weeks ago and won this race both in 2022 (good to soft) and last year (soft); capable of playing a leading role back here and back up in trip. |

2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Not found her best form in 2026 but she's down in the weights and she came good with a pair of Ayr wins on slow ground last autumn; will be more appealing when back down in grade, though. |

11th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 7f 196y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Eight-race maiden but he was placed twice last year, at Ayr (1m7f, soft) and Musselburgh (2m, good); took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Redcar (1m6f, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie and visor) but he was able to dictate a steady pace; needs to build on that. |
16/1 |

4th 5 (2) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 218y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Seven-race maiden; ought to have coped better with the soft ground when beaten 55l on final start last season and was again tailed off when reappearing on AW last month; now sports first-time tongue-tie and visor; others have much less to prove. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Her form has been mixed on the Flat and over hurdles this year and she's hasn't been at the top of her game over hurdles of late; however, she won this last year (soft) and shouldn't be discounted. |
16/1 |
|
6th 7 |
7th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Gained all four hurdle wins over C&D; not at best this year and never really got competitive when tried over 2m4f here last month but wears a first-time tongue-tie and can't be ruled out off current mark. |
10/1 |
|
7th 9 |
15th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Four course wins (all over 2m); lacked the pace to challenge when third over that trip here (good; 4-1) early last month; finished down the field back on the Flat (1m2f) since; stablemate Follow Charlie has more to recommend. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Won off 2lb lower over 1m5f (good) here in May 2025; below best twice since promising seasonal reappearance at Roscommon but the drop to 0-60 company could spark a revival. |
18/1 |
|
7th 8 (10) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 0y |
11st 1lb |
Best on good ground and shaped nicely on seasonal return over 1m4f (good) at Roscommon when a 2.5l second; failed to fire at Ballinrobe on latest but didn't get her ground; could rebound on this more suitable surface. |
12/1 |
|
11th 16 (6) |
22nd Jun 2026 Yielding 1m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb
|
Started last season brightly with three placed efforts before a 1m5f Navan win; has also begun this season on a positive note when runner-up at Roscommon; only one win from 22 starts (along with six seconds); worth considering if getting a run; second reserve. |

1st Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Has several pieces of placed form (Flat/hurdles) for current yard but his losing sequence is mounting up; not the percentage call in this competitive affair. |
16/1 |
|
2nd 9 (5) |
23rd Oct 2025 Soft 2m 1f 208y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Runner-up on stable debut at Musselburgh (2m, good) in July and he's fine on testing ground; however, this 9yo has failed to threaten on his last two outings and needs something extra today. |
12/1 |
|
5th 6 (5) |
30th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won three Flat races at up to 1m7f when trained in France (including on heavy) and has since won three times over hurdles for Amy Murphy; good second on stable debut at Musselburgh in July (2m, good) but lesser run last time (2m1f, good to soft); each-way chance. |

24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
Hurdles winner two seasons ago; gained a first Flat win at Tramore in July on his third run for this yard, in first-time blinkers, scoring by 10l; some concern that he has been a beaten favourite in two small-field events (hurdles and Flat) at the same venue since then. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 5 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Bounced back to form when gaining a first Flat win on his third run for this yard over C&D last month in first-time blinkers, successful by 10l; hefty 12lb hike for that but interesting if headgear continues to work; just second over hurdles here on Thursday. |
5/2 |
|
2nd 1 |
13th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 for John McConnell; came back to form in first-time blinkers to easily win on the Flat here over 1m4f last time; has to be respected back hurdling assuming the blinkers have the desired effect again. |

30th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
8st 8lb |
Nine-race maiden; seems to stay 1m6f and is better than she showed than when 7.5l fourth at Thirsk last time (1m4f, soft); could go well. |
11/2 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
15th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 8y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Maiden; tailed off at Southwell last time (1m6f; not the best of runs) but two fair runs over 1m6f at Yarmouth (good) and over 1m4f at Wolverhampton prior to that; place chance. |
6/1 |
|
8th 11 (7) |
28th Jul 2025 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
8st 3lb |
3yo who has been consistent across her last three starts (including on Tapeta), finishing third of five at Yarmouth (1m6f, good) last month; needs something extra today but is lightly raced and might not be far away. |

29th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
9yo who was disappointing here 11 days ago but in good form previously, including a win here (1m5f, good) in July; his tally of four course wins includes this race in 2024 and he's versatile ground-wise; could bounce back. |
7/1 |

6th 10 (2) |
18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Posted course win number four when scoring over C&D (good) in July and he's run well in third at Hamilton (1m4f/1m5f, good/soft) on both outings since; could again be thereabouts. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 11 (1) |
2nd Sep 2026 Soft 1m 5f 16y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Finished third behind Perseus Way in this race 12 months ago and he is rated 5lb lower this time around; comes here on the back of three solid efforts, including a 1m5f win at Ayr, and holds each-way claims again. |

7th 7 (6) |
19th May 2026 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 6 |

Useful in Ireland in his younger days but been poor under both codes for this yard for a good while; tailed off behind two of these at Pontefract last time. |
50/1 |
|
7th 11 (11) |
21st Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 139y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
He's dropped to a basement mark but his sole win came in 2020 and this 9yo struggled to get competitive last year; first run since last October. |
