Progressed well last year over 7f, winning twice; resumed progress on return in March when defying top-weight at Dundalk off 84; drops in trip with cheekpieces now fitted; wants decent ground. |

Won C&D maiden last summer before following up over the same trip in Down Royal handicap; back to that level of form on latest when strong-finishing 1/2l off an all-the-way winner here over 6f in December; back up to career-high mark but return to 7f to suit and respected. |

9st 11lb |
Second runner for yard; four AW wins; 1-16 on turf; kept very busy on AW in recent months, on latest collared close home when runner-up over 7f off current mark; 7lb claimer takes over from Colin Keane; one to consider. |

Four AW wins up to an extended 1m1f, twice over C&D including in January off 74; kept busy since over various trips, most recently best work at finish after a slow start (stalls slow to open) when beaten 1.5l over 6f; return to 7f to suit and okay mark so one to consider. |

AW winner is 0-8 on turf and yet to trouble the judge; rated just 77 and beaten in a Limerick handicap on latest; surely out of her depth in this company. |

9st 2lb |
French AW winner; promise on debut for this yard at Leopardstown but blood in both nostrils when a beaten favourite for her next run at Navan; back on track after a break at Dundalk (7f) last month when a 1l third; chance off the same mark if backs that up. |

Debut AW winner in France at two and fair form first half of last season on softish ground; bought for 28,000euros in July and after promising yard debut at Leopardstown in September, reportedly had blood in both nostrils when running poorly at Navan following month; first AW run since August 2024. |

9st 4lb |
Narrowly denied on second start in a 7.5f Roscommon maiden (good) in August; no show in Goffs million over this C&D (soft) but off the mark on handicap debut at Dundalk (7f) in October; will strip fitter for comeback run back there in March when beaten 1.5l off revised mark; tongue-tie on. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Went close in Roscommon maiden last summer and off the mark final start on AW/handicap debut over C&D in October, coming home well when holding two stablemates in tight finish; 5lb higher now but type to keep progressing (will want 1m in time) and likely big player (yard had a winner here last week). |

Three wins for George Boughey (two on AW); signed off with a 6f AW second at Wolverhampton and bought for 21,000gns last October; unplaced in two Dundalk outings and no better than mid-division in two Curragh runs; tongue-toe added now. |

Three wins for George Boughey (two on AW), signing off with a 6f AW second at Wolverhampton; bought for 21,000gns in October and too keen on yard debut at Dundalk in March (7f); never dangerous back there later that month; improvement needed. |

Five-time course winner (four at this trip), most recently in December off 73; good second (not clear run) in quite valuable Newcastle handicap following month but needs to bounce back from underwhelming C&D effort three weeks ago. |

Lightly raced at two, getting off the mark (20-1) final start on AW debut in 6f handicap here in October, having shown plenty of speed from outside draw and asserting late; gelded since and likely open to more improvement at this longer trip; 2lb wrong but has to be considered. |
