11st 9lb |
Has run only three times since her 50-1 win in this race in 2024 for this rider, also aboard for an emphatic victory over Smooth Tom in a 1m4f conditions event at the Curragh last October; lack of a prep-run could be a drawback. |

Two middle-distance wins in France; had this rider aboard for 50-1 win in the big amateur handicap at Galway (2m1f, yielding) in 2024; should be sharper now following a mid-field run in the Irish Cesarewitch; this trip probably short of optimum/ |

Eight wins (four on Flat, four over hurdles); ended last season with a Curragh second behind Sirius; confidence dented by recent form over jumps. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Grand sort has won four hurdles, including two small-field contests here last year; returned with a spin over fences in May; 2m3f is the farthest he's gone, so stamina for 3m is the concern. |

Classy hurdler 4-11 in that sphere and rated 140; ground versatile; off since decent Flat run at the Curragh in October; returns with yard in form and his half-brother Royal Hollow has won for this stable over fences; could prove hard to beat if fit. |

28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 132y |
10st 7lb |
Admirable dual-purpose veteran is a winner of 14 races; 6-34 over hurdles but time may be catching up with him based on the evidence of his last two runs and was well beaten in this in 2024 off 2lb lower. |
40/1 |

10th 7 |
4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Fine dual-purpose performer won this last year (beating Helvic Dream) off 9lb lower; won twice on Flat afterwards, back from a break when well held back over hurdles at DRF in February; 13yo probably needs a career-best over hurdles to follow up here. |
16/1 |

Winning hurdler-chaser for Willie Mullins; good fifth in the Kim Muir on his stable debut in March; well beaten in the Midlands National here last month on his latest start; has a similar mark over hurdles and a very interesting runner at his best. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 1f 80y |

2nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 90y |
11st 12lb |
Decent performer at his best for Willie Mullins, winning 2m4f Naas beginners' chase last season and ran well for a long way in 4m Scottish National; struggled back hurdling earlier this season before let go for 16,000gns in January; surpassed expectations (125-1) on yard debut in 3m Kim Muir at Cheltenham when beaten under 10l in first-time cheekpieces; can't be ruled out on banks' debut. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Registered his highest rating in 1m6f Listed race on soft ground last April (his only time front-running); always prominent when strong finish took him to a handicap win at the Curragh (1m6f, yielding) this term and, although he wasn't discredited over 2m later in June, this trip on softer than good may well be the best fit; wears headgear for the first time. |
20/1 |

7th 1 (10) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |
10st 2lb |
Stayed on well to gain third career success off 8lb lower here on latest (1m6f, yielding); both previous runs at around this trip have not been his best so could be vulnerable upped in distance on quicker ground off career high mark. |
100/30 |
|
1st 6 (1) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Won twice over 1m4f in 2024 and began last season in form of his life over 1m6f at Navan, touched off in handicap and fine third in Listed contest; last month's 1m4f Leopardstown comeback run was encouraging, could well improve enough from that to play a major role here back at 1m6f. |

11 wins in all, and seven of them at stakes level; C&D winner on heavy in April and Listed winner over extended 1m4f on soft at Limerick in June; held in Leopardstown Group 3 on quicker ground last time; second to Carmers over 2m at Down Royal back in May and now 4lb worse off. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
His record now stands at 11 wins and 16 places; he celebrated his 50th outing by winning a Listed race on his favoured soft ground at Limerick in June, his seventh stakes win; would benefit most from a marked deterioration of ground conditions. |

8yo has won this race for the past two years on soft and yielding ground; soundly beaten in both starts in handicaps this term, but connections have likely targeted this race and could make a bold bid. |

Has modest 2-36 strike-rate over fences but is largely consistent and has been as good as ever this season; not beaten far when seventh in competitive Leopardstown handicap (2m1f, good to yielding) just after Christmas and should be fine over today's longer trip; ought to be on the premises. |
