Won over shorter trip here in October; stumbled badly in the dip when only a length off Joya Del Mar over C&D on just her second outing of the year. |

11st 6lb |
Won a novice handicap over 17.5f (yielding) here in October; subsequently out of depth in grade 3 and tailed off on return from a break in a handicap at Perth in May; unproven over this far and needs to leave that last run behind. |

Always doing enough when making winning handicap debut at Downpatrick (2m1f; 9-4 favourite) last October; well beaten in a Grade 3 mares' novice next time, and absent since; no issue with this track, so mildly interesting to see how she fares off a BHA mark of 109. |

9st 8lb |
Hasn't won since 2023 but the handicapper is relenting and he was only beaten 1l when fifth over 1m7f at Leopardstown last time; not beaten far over C&D in June off 4lb higher under this rider; in the mix. |

Four-time winner on long losing run; shaped okay when fifth at Naas on penultimate, but didn't build on that when beaten 7l over 1m5f here on latest; needs more upped in trip. |

Latest of four wins was over 1m4f three years ago, but he's on a good mark nowadays and came home well when around 3l fifth to Killyclogher Rose at Naas (1m3f); she's a lot less exposed though, and he might struggle to turn around that form. |

Is best on good ground and shaped well at Cork on penultimate (2m2f, good) but didn't back it up over C&D on latest; needs to bounce back and the forecast rain is a worry. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
11st 4lb |
Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle last year for John McConnell; no show in opening two starts for this yard, but her runner-up finish at Cork last time was much better (2m2f, good); Jack Kennedy remains aboard and cheekpieces go on; not ruled out. |

Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle last year for John McConnell; no show in first two starts for this yard and pulled up over 2m4f (good) here on latest; others more convincing. |

10st 6lb |
Second runner for yard; has dropped in the handicap a fair bit this year but got back on the scoresheet in winning a Sligo claimer last time; has to be respected again off a low weight. |

1st 8 |
6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 193y |
10st 6lb |
Won a handicap off 111 last year, so has come down a lot in the ratings; has run in several claimers and was second of five in this last year; chased home Rich Belief at Wexford in May, held in handicaps since. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 55y |

Sole hurdles win came over a year ago at Clonmel (2m4f) off 111; tried several times in claiming hurdles this year, notably C&D second in May, reportedly found to have blood in nostrils last month when just fair fifth in Downpatrick handicap; has to be treated with some caution but down to a nice mark. |

Hurdle winner has twice run well in defeat at this track over fences this year, including over C&D; unseated at Galway last time but has a squeak on those better earlier runs. |

Promise in all three chase starts, including when a 2.5l second behind Giant Haystacks in a handicap at Wexford on latest despite not jumping fluently at times; nudged up 2lb and this is tougher but could go well if jumping better. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
12st 0lb |
Didn't go on over hurdles after big-priced debut win; has run well in both chase starts at Tramore, not beaten far in 2m handicap, and 2m6f may have stretched her in a beginners' last time; not sure about racing left-handed, but she does jump left. |

Dual-purpose maiden had been placed over hurdles for Gordon Elliott but has been poor in two starts for this yard (both here) and needs improvement on her best form anyway. |
