29th Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 7lb |
Sprang a 33-1 surprise in a Leopardstown maiden this time last year (7f, good) but hasn't built on that effort, most recently seasonal return at same venue early this month (hanging left late on); entitled to come on for that. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y |
9st 10lb |
Sprang a 33-1 surprise in a C&D maiden (good) last July; last of six in Tipperary listed race the following month; weakened on soft ground upped to 1m on handicap debut here when last seen in October; gelded, 4lb lower now and worth a market check on return. |

Surprise debut winner of 7f auction maiden here in July (second won next time out) making virtually all; too keen when similar tactics employed in Tipperary Listed following month but respected back down in grade here. |

Made all in back-end 1m nursery at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); unable to land a blow in 7f Guineas Trial at same venue last month, but finished not far off some useful types; sights lowered now after a Listed run at Naas; cheekpieces fitted; sole filly of her age in this race. |

Off the mark when making all in back-end 1m nursery at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); unable to land a blow in 7f Guineas Trial back there last month, but finished in close proximity to some useful types and she's bred to stay this far. |

4th Oct 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Maiden win at two came on heavy; has made the frame on her two most recent starts, C&D handicap fourth (good) and ran above her mark when third in Gowran conditions event over nearly 1m2f; absent for four months but respected. |

9st 11lb |
Bellewstown maiden winner (1m, good); not disgraced in Listed heat at Tipperary (7.5f, good); stayed on after being outpaced on handicap debut at Leopardstown (1m, yld-sft) in October; 3lb lower now and yard had first time out winner on Wednesday. |

Elzaam gelding built on promising debut when winning over this trip at Bellewstown (good); didn't land a blow in Tipperary Listed following month but not discredited when beaten 5l: drops in class and rider's claim a positive. |
10/1 |

8th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 100y |

Elzaam gelding built on his promising debut run at Down Royal (7f, good) when winning at Bellewstown (1m, good); clearly has a decent level of ability but this is much harder; needs to improve further. |

Some smart maiden form and fair fourth (first-time headgear) in 1m1f Leopardstown handicap last month; didn't land a blow over this trip at Naas last time; AW debut. |

10th 9 (11) |
3rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 184y |

Useful soft-ground form at two; Leopardstown fourth in first-time headgear has worked out well; was keeping on well then, but still has stamina to prove. |

C&D handicap winner in May; not beaten far in handicaps at Leopardstown in July and Doncaster 13 days ago; capable of holding his own in this company. |
5/1 |
|
5th 6 (5) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
A bit in and out but he won at the Curragh in May and showed his best form when second at Leopardstown (again 7f on good) in early July on latest outing; left with too much to do in the latter after a slow start, so might still do better. |

Solid in defeat in three maidens up to this trip before runner-up in 1m Killarney nursery off this mark; disappointed in first-time cheekpieces (replaced by blinkers here) when remote third at Listowel on heavy last time. |

Solid in defeat in three maidens up to this trip before runner-up to Extravagant in a 1m Killarney nursery; is 7lb better off for that 1.5l so there shouldn't be much between them today; cheekpieces added; handles soft. |

Some promise for Ger Lyons in Ireland last year but sent off at big prices and achieved little in five runs for his new stable; tumbling down the weights but not a solid option. |
50/1 |

7th 8 (8) |
31st Aug 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |

Ex-Irish maiden who's turned in four poor efforts at huge prices this year; Golspie looks his yard's best chance. |

Second in three handicaps; rider mistook winning post in narrow defeat to course specialist at Listowel latest; 5lb higher, but likes an ease and certainly one to consider. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 4 (12) |
21st Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Claimed after Naas success last September; pleasing yard debut when second in Leopardstown nursery; did not get the best of runs when well supported at Galway on his second start this year; disappointing in a conditions race at Killarney last month; tongue-tie discarded now. |
8/1 |

6th 6 (3) |

Claimed after Naas success last September; pleasing yard debut when second in Leopardstown nursery; seemingly ridden to stay 1m2f trip on return at Roscommon in late June, staying on into fourth; did not get the best of runs when well supported at Galway; tongue-tie on now, leading chance. |

Inconclusive form in maidens and opening two nursery efforts have been ordinary (6f trip inadequate latest); step up in trip here will need to bring improvement. |

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

Inconclusive form in maidens; fair sixth at the Curragh on handicap debut; closely matched with Luna Mia; needs to find extra in first-time blinkers |
12/1 |

6th 5 (1) |
28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Second runner for yard; best effort came second time up when beaten 5.25l into fourth in a strong Leopardstown maiden in May (7f, good); gelded after a below par run at Gowran in June (7f, soft); potentially well treated and worth monitoring in the market on handicap debut. |

Maiden on the Flat but has threatened, as was also the case on his second run over hurdles when pushing the favourite close here a month ago (first run in a tongue-tie; cheekpieces now added); considered. |
5/1 |

2nd 4 |
28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 87y |
10st 12lb |
Maiden on the Flat but rated 75 and has ability; sent off at 9-2 for hurdling debut at Ballinrobe but finished well beaten behind Nicky Larson; new tongue tie needs to have a dramatic effect. |

6th 2 (14) |
5th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 27y |

Some promise in maidens but well held on handicap debut and hard to fancy from this sort of mark on the back of last week's run in a maiden claimer at Navan. |
16/1 |
