20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Multiple wins at 7f-1m in Ireland, including on Polytrack, but she hasn't looked well treated on turf in Britain; has a lower AW mark but still has enough to prove in her first run over 5f. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Eight-time winner in Ireland but all over 7f/1m, and three starts over 6f/7f for this yard have yielded little; takes another drop in class but best watched for now. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Eight-time winner in Ireland (7f/1m) who has yet to sparkle in two 6f starts for this yard, including when beaten 12l to finish last of eight at Windsor (good to firm) on Monday; this trip is more suitable so heed any market signals. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 110y |
8st 9lb |
Three-time AW winner is 0-22 on turf but has placed on multiple occasions; not beaten far on last turf start at Leopardstown last month (1m, good) and kept on steadily for a 3.5l sixth of 14 over 10.5f at Dundalk latest; eased another 1lb and becoming well handicapped; chance. |

6th 12 (5) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
8st 11lb |
Two-time C&D winner, most recently last November off 2lb lower; running okay in defeat on turf in recent starts over inadequate trips and this hold up sort could get a nice pace to aim at on return to the AW; not out of this. |
10/1 |
|
4th 5 (5) |
16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Three wins on AW, but 0-21 on turf; did well at Dundalk over the winter and carried that form through to soft-ground contests in the spring; second over 7f at Naas and fourth over 1m2f here in April (strong form); not so good since; likes to come from off the pace, and there wasn't enough on when he was fourth (only 7-2) at Killarney on Monday. |

8st 10lb |
0-7 on turf but has races in her; placed on handicap debut and seasonal return at Naas off 5lb higher (7f, soft); below best twice since, however, and faster ground a concern here (unraced on quicker than yielding). |
18/1 |

6th 8 (5) |

Lightly-raced filly; second twice in maidens and made a bright start in handicaps when third of 12 over 7f at Naas in March; something seemingly amiss when favourite here in April, though vet's report revealed nothing; may bounce back now. |

Four consecutive places, the latest from a good draw when second to Cala Bonita at Galway (yielding to soft); looks on the right sort of mark but his stable couldn't be in better form. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 127y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Formerly trained by Jessica Harrington in Ireland where he won a Galway maiden; sold to join current yard for 33,000gns last month and made an immediate impact by winning over C&D (good); has been raised 7lb and has an outside draw but may still have more to offer. |

25th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 127y Class 4 |
10st 2lb |
Competitive in some of his handicaps in Ireland after winning a 7f maiden at Galway a year ago; left Jessica Harrington for 33,000gns; should pay his way for new connections off this sort of mark. |

6th 7 (11) |

Galway maiden winner last July (7f, yielding); promising start in handicaps on easy ground this term but progress stalled on quicker ground at Cork on latest in first-time cheekpieces; may prefer softer ground. |

Two respectable Flat runs last month; 0-11 over hurdles; comes into the reckoning following an improved display that saw him finish fifth of 21 in a stronger race than this at Fairyhouse. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 2lb |
Soft or heavy ground is crucial for him, and wisely was given the summer off after winning at the Curragh in April; twice beat Mercurial over C&D in 2024, including in this race; chance is dependent on how much rain falls. |
9/1 |

1st 12 (10) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |

Four-time winner whose best form has on soft and heavy at around 7f; got those optimum conditions over C&D last time when third, finishing 1.75l behind Mickey The Steel and 6.5l behind Red Charlie; cheekpieces added to the tongue tie now, but may struggle to reverse form. |

Goes well at this venue and was only reeled in close to home over 8.5f here on Tuesday; runs off the same mark now and nicely drawn so can't discount dropped back in trip; obvious chance. |
100/30 |

2nd 5 (6) |
28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |

Two-time C&D winner on heavy off higher marks; went close again over C&D in October, again on heavy; caught the eye when short of room and not beaten far at Killarney on latest (1m, good); softer conditions would be preferable but he's got plenty of decent form on this sort of ground and his yard targets this meeting; chance. |

10st 13lb |
Useful Flat maiden (rated 77) and placed in all four maiden hurdles at 2m, most recently over C&D last month, mistake two out not helping his cause when beaten over 4l into third; has his chance again but is proving a bit frustrating. |
11/8 |

3rd 12 |
23rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 150y |

Useful Flat maiden, runner-up in four maidens and rated 77 in that sphere; placed in three maiden hurdles, latest at Roscommon (2m gd) 17 days ago when beaten 6.25l into third, shaping well as was unsuited by slow pace; should be winning one of these soon and the one to beat. |

Useful but frustrating Flat maiden for Ger Lyons; solid efforts in maiden hurdles at Sligo and Limerick; was ahead of Luker's Tipple on latter occasion and should confirm that form on 2lb worse terms. |

Course and distance maiden winner on this card last year; improved plenty for seasonal return when beaten 0.5l into third in Curragh handicap 19 days ago, hitting the line much better; up 2lb but still well-treated back up in trip and enjoys soft ground. |

13th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y |

Fine stalwart has won eight races, including seasonal return at Naas in March (7f, soft-to-heavy); below best of late but reduced mark now and soft ground so could improve on recent form. |
