20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Showed good improvement for the addition of a visor at Dundalk in January when easily winning off 63 over 1m for former trainer Joseph O'Brien; okay efforts back there and at Leopardstown after that, but beaten 10.5l behind Harmani at Down Royal when last seen in May; Flat rating of 73 puts him in the mix on hurdling/stable debut. |

Nicely improved in first-time visor to handsomely win 1m Dundalk handicap in January (beating a subsequent winner); not clear run and hung right over same C&D 10 days later; not certain he stayed today's trip at Leopardstown last time (over 2l off Pierre Grosse at level); gelded since and visor back on (replacing cheekpieces worn latest). |

Nicely improved in first-time visor to handsomely win 1m Dundalk handicap in January off 63 (beating a subsequent winner); not clear run and hung right when only fourth over same C&D 10 days later off 12lb higher mark; cheekpieces now replace visor and upped in trip. |

Not beaten far in fifth on second of three 7f runs here at two; finished behind Enthusiastically in a claimer last November; open to improvement and of definite interest with Nicola Burns claiming 5lb. |

9st 6lb |
Sets a decent standard here off a mark of 85; beaten a nose over 7f at Dundalk on second handicap start in November and made a positive seasonal return at Navan in April when a 3l third of 18 (1m2f, good to yielding); Navan handicap debut last time was below his best (1m2f, yielding); evidence to date suggests this new trip is within reach. |

Handicap debutant; struggled on heavy on debut; beaten a nose over 7f at Dundalk in November; 3l third of 18 in C&D maiden on seasonal return, close up behind 83 rated rival; opening mark doesn't look a gift but very much respected. |

9st 8lb |
Has run to a similar level on both starts; 5.5l fifth of 14 on debut at Dundalk in November (7f); similar result on second start over this C&D (soft) last month; sharper for that and could run into the money. |

Starman gelding a 11,500euros yearling; fourth foal; dam 6f 2yo winner (RPR 88), half-sister to 1m4f-2m1f winner Mondain, out of unraced sister to 1m-1m2f Group 1 winner Manduro; showed some degree of promise on Dundalk debut in November over this trip; no surprise if he improved enough to play a major role in this weak affair. |

Had an off day at Dundalk last time; otherwise solid form in turf handicaps; withdrawn a week ago due to ground (good-to-yielding) so won't want much rain. |

Has held form well since sent handicapping; won off 6lb lower over 6f here in December; beaten 0.5l off this mark over 1m here in March; solid efforts over 7f and 8.5f at Fairyhouse the last twice; place claims at the very least. |

Won a 5f maiden here last December and several good runs in defeat since including Cork second and close fifth to Kerdos here last month (5f); never competitive in valuable Cork handicap latest when 3lb out of handicap; 4lb wrong here. |

Won his maiden over C&D last December and overall form figures here read 2313; not as consistent on turf this season; ran well at Cork in June but down the field on latest at the Curragh; another one that could potentially improve now returned to the AW, but he's 4lb wrong here. |

Sprang a surprise in a three-runner rated race at Dundalk in February (6f); has beaten few rivals in three runs since; some reasons to be hopeful are a recent gelding operation, a first run in 0-60 company and the presence of Browne McMonagle in the saddle for the first time. |

9st 9lb |
Good third at Fairyhouse in early July and backed that up when winning at the Galway festival later in the month (1m1f, yielding to soft); couldn't back it up in similar contest under a 7lb penalty two days later but was a creditable fifth; others are better weighted but he's in form. |

2nd Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 73y |
8st 12lb |
Eyecatching third at Fairyhouse and backed that up by winning over C&D on Friday in first-time cheekpieces, asserting late on on yielding-to-soft; major chance if making quick return under mandatory 7lb penalty, although wide draw to contend with. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Followed a good run against a much-improved rival at Down Royal by winning over 6f at Fairyhouse; another good run at the same venue over 7f; lost a shoe at Killarney last time, but has gone up 11lb in total and will need a career best effort here. |

6th 8 (7) |
13th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
8st 11lb |
All three handicap runs on good ground have been fine efforts; runner up at Down Royal (7f), won at Fairyhouse (6f, good) and kept on for a 0.5l second back there over 7f on latest; nudged up another 3lb and this is harder, but the step up to 1m could eke out more improvement, so not discounted. |

Confirmed promise shown at Dundalk last year when well backed and winning a maiden claimer at Roscommon in May (7.5f, gd-yld); not seen since, which is a slight concern, but should go well if she's ready to rock. |

Fine run on second handicap start at Fairyhouse in June (1m2f, good); tailed off at Down Royal on latest when favourite but soft ground may not have suited; 3yo surely capable of better than that and too soon to write off. |

A newly applied hood appeared to work the oracle at Fairyhouse last time (1m2f, good) when running his best race by far from five starts, beaten just a neck; 4lb rise for that seems a little harsh but chance if the hood continues its magic. |

Non-runners
Kenough, Nazario
Verdict
Nazario probably sets the standard, ahead of Fox In Flight, but a chance is taken on KENOUGH who looked impressive in winning a barrier trial for Diego Dias and now debuts for Joseph O’Brien in the Ethical Diamond colours of the H O S Syndicate. O’Brien also has Another Day Done so the market should be informative. Others to conside in a decent maiden are Now Maybe and Cosmic Motion. [Alan Hewison]
