9st 11lb |
Best known for AW exploits, also effective on turf; second to Bodhi Bear in a 5f handicap at Navan; visor now replaces blinkers following a below-par Dundalk run last Sunday. |

9st 13lb |
Back on song when just failing to reel in the winner at Navan on latest; four C&D wins to his name, including a Group 3, and is 5lb better off for a 1.75l defeat behind Valiant Force in a rated race here in February; third in this last year and should go well again. |

Five-time AW winner; both turf wins have come over this C&D on yielding and soft ground; pleasing seasonal return over 6f at the Curragh last month, not far behind Bodhi Bear; eased 1lb, yard in fine form and leading claims. |

10st 4lb |
Struggling on turf this season but won his last start over C&D in February and, overall, he has won five times at this venue over a variety of trips; second behind Eclairage in this last season; a return to form would come as no surprise but David Egan prefers Ipanema Queen. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win on turf in the 2023 Norfolk Stakes; has won five conditions races at Dundalk since, the most recent over 5f in February; has struggled since then; drop in class after contesting a Listed race and C&D Group 2 in May; was 20lb higher at his peak; still an entire. |

Sole win on turf in the 2023 Norfolk Stakes; has won five conditions races at Dundalk since, the most recent over 5f in February; has struggled since then, most recently last Sunday at Naas; out of his depth here. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Reserve; won 6f Group 2 at Goodwood (good to firm) as a 2yo; sparingly raced with mixed results since and has plenty to prove after a low-key Listed run on reappearance at Naas (5f); no aids latest; has worn blinkers, first-time cheekpieces today. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Winner of a Goodwood Group 2 in 2024; sparingly raced last year, well beaten in a Curragh Group 3 (6f, good); some better efforts twice at Dundalk but more needed here and lacks a run. |

24th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Won a Goodwood Group 2 last year before a 5.75l fourth of 6 in the Middle Park Stakes; sparingly raced this year, well beaten on return in a Curragh Group 3 in August; better effort over C&D latest (behind Songhai) but this demands more. |

12th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Speedy filly has an excellent strike rate over C&D (4-6) including this race last year off 2lb lower; went close behind Howd'yadoit at Navan in May but has failed to fire in three runs since; return to this track offers hope of a revival and cheekpieces are added; bold bid likely from plum draw. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Has only won on the AW but nearly put that right in a 5f handicap at Navan last month; not suited by the rain-hit ground when well beaten in the Dash at Epsom; failed to maintain a strong gallop in a Cork Listed race in which Likedbymike and Erosandpsyche were placed. |

9st 4lb |
Has only won on the AW but nearly put that right in a 5f handicap at Navan last month and probably resented the rain-hit ground when well beaten in last week's Dash at Epsom; has bit to find on these terms, though. |

9st 11lb |
Yet to win this year but has been running very well in defeat; chased home Valiant Force over C&D latest (Black Forza and The Highway Rat behind); fine third in the 5f Group 2 Sapphire Stakes earlier this season; won her maiden here (6f) and she should be in the mix again. |
10/1 |

6 (6) |
14th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Yet to add to her 6f debut win at this venue; running well in defeat in stakes company this season and her rating of 98 might underestimate her ability; the return to this venue is a plus and she should go well. |
