8st 12lb |
Cheap purchase out of Ed Bethell's yard; has found his level since coming down from a peak Irish rating of 56; runner-up over C&D in January, solid third over 1m last month and similar when second two weeks ago; Sadhbh Tormey has ridden two winners for the stable this month and has prospects of another now. |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Generally consistent round Dundalk in recent times, in various forms of headgear, but expensive to follow; trainer always to be respected with runners here but this is the furthest this one's been and he'll need to settle if his stamina is to hold. |

Win at Down Royal in 2024 his sole success from 23 starts; however, he handles this surface and ran up a sequence of third placings before finishing fifth here 12 days ago, a run that matches him closely with Comfort Line, Kitty Bear and Punk Poet |

AW winner is 0-10 on turf and yet to trouble the judge; best efforts on grass have come on heavy ground, so the forecast rain is a plus, but others appeal more. |

One of his three wins came over C&D and has often run well in defeat here, too; second to well-treated types at Galway and Dundalk in later months of last year; well supported into 10-3 when third to Kitty Bear at Gowran last month. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Three-time turf winner and often placed but 0-22 on AW and placed only three times; hard to make a strong case on recent AW form; however, he is so much more effective on turf that a good showing is not out of the question. |

Most recent of her six wins gained at Laytown last September; 1-17 at this venue; given plenty to do finishing strongly for neck second last month, with Alex Belardo 2l back in fourth; that rival turned the tables on her two weeks ago. |

Six-time course winner, most effective at this trip; generally below his best since winning here last September; mild encouragement from his most recent run, but needs to reverse form with Comfort Line, Kitty Bear and Punk Poet; dropping in the ratings, now 9lb below last winning mark. |

9st 7lb |
Back to form when recording a tenth win under rules' at Dundalk last month (7f); 6f perhaps a bit sharp back at Dundalk last time and was hampered turning in; she was a C&D winner last June off 5lb higher, so a few things in her favour back on turf. |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 50y |
9st 8lb |
Had been on a losing run of over 2.5 years before a short head victory at Gowran last time provided her fourth career turf win (1m, soft); runner-up hasn't done much for the form in the meantime; still on an attractive mark compared to her previous wins if continuing on an upward curve. |
