9st 10lb |
Entering legendary course specialist status after adding a tenth win at the venue in a Listed race last time (6f, good); prior to that he won a C&D Listed contest in March (soft to heavy) when seeing off East Hampton by 1.5l; got closest to subsequent Group 1 winner Comanche Brave when a 2l second in a 6f Group 2 here on penultimate (good); always a danger around here and should go well again. |

9st 10lb |
Gallant grey veteran is an eight-time course winner and no signs of slowing down this season; won Listed race here in March (7f, sft-hvy) and another cracking run when runner up in the Group 2 Greenlands Stakes here in May (6f, good, Fregada 2.5l behind); goes on any ground, was fourth in this last year and another big run likely on the cards here. |

Splendid veteran showed he retained enthusiasm when winning the 7f Gladness Stakes in March, his ninth Curragh win on his 50th visit; found 5f too sharp at Naas last time; runs in this event for the fourth consecutive year, second at 25-1 in 2023, ninth in 2024, third behind James Delight at 33-1 last season; asking a lot now in a strong edition. |

Looked set for a big season after his Listed win at Cork but it hasn't materialised; upset in stalls when soundly beaten again upped to 6f at Naas latest; however, he has C&D form figures of 132, including a head second in this last year, so the return to this venue offers hope of a revival. |

Smart 2yo who nearly won a Group 3 over 5f and a Listed winner this season; dropped his guard of late, though did contest the Group 1 Flying Five last time; this is a belated first try at 6f but it might suit. |

9st 7lb |
Two good efforts for his new yard in May, beating 13 rivals in a Class 2 handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) off 3lb lower; only midfield in the Wokingham next time and he was left trailing by King Of Light at Windsor 12 days ago; others appeal more. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
10st 1lb |
Has run all over the place for different yards and in good form for this one, finishing close up in a big 6f York race before winning at Thirsk (6f, good); had a very stiff task in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot where he did well to hang on to his lead for as long as he did on the wrong side of the track; this easy 6f will suit better; can go well. |

Exotic career includes races in the US, Britain, Ireland and on snow for various yards, but he comes here in fine form over 6f for this one, having finished close up at York (good; under 2l behind runner-up Binhareer) before winning at Thirsk; 1lb badly in under a penalty and has a harder task. |

9st 13lb |
Beat course specialist Big Gossey when winning the Bold Lad Handicap here last September; no luck in running in two handicaps this term; won a Fairyhouse conditions race for the third time in four years before a fine second to Big Gossey in a Listed race here last time, a whisker in front of Bodhi Bear. |

Beat Big Gossey by 0.5l when winning the Bold Lad Handicap here last September but was in receipt of 10lbs; slow start to this season but back on song in Fairyhouse median auction race latest, winning it for the third time; unlucky in running when down the field in this last season; will like this ground. |

Won the first two renewals of this race in 2023 and 2024 and was runner up behind the talented King Cuan last year; won the Bold Lad (6f, yielding) last September and was then runner up in listed company at Naas; below best in two handicap starts this term but could bounce back. |

Back on song when convincing winner of a 6f Listed event at Naas (yielding) last October; unable to get involved in two runs at that level in 2026 but he was badly checked back at Naas in April and in better form than the 5l defeat suggests; however, he has more to prove back on this track with good to firm ground quicker than ideal; regular cheekpieces are discarded. |

Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |

Won a 6f Curragh handicap on debut for this stable in August; came up short in stakes company since, though wasn't beaten far staying on for fourth in a 6f Naas Listed latest; 0-2 on AW, drawn wide and not sure the drop to 5f will suit. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 205y |

Progressed well for Ralph Beckett, holding her own at Group/Listed level; impressed in a 6f Curragh handicap on stable debut but below that level since when soft ground was no excuse; good chance of staging a revival in an easier race here. |

6th 9 (1) |
28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Ran some fine races in defeat at 6f-7f in stakes company last season for Ralph Beckett; back to winning ways on debut for this yard off 101 in a C&D handicap on seasonal reappearance in August; too keen stepped back up to 7f in a Doncaster Group 3 latest; capable of better if she settles. |

10st 0lb |
Mostly campaigned (without success) in Listed company since winning off 77 at Chepstow (5f, gd-sft) last August; remains 10lb above that last success but a repeat of her 3l Cork fourth on penultimate would give her a squeak back in handicap company and she'll be suited by a strongly run race. |

9st 6lb |
Unplaced in seven races (six of them Listed) since winning a Class 4 handicap at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) last August; ran okay on Sunday but she will need more to take this; blinkers the headgear of choice. |
