30th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 3y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Ex-Irish 4yo; found one too good when favourite for last month's stable debut here (7f) but was evidently suited by combination of drop back to 6f and refitted blinkers when scoring at Windsor (also good to firm) 17 days ago; 4lb higher now but capable 7lb claimer Kyle McHugh is booked; can cope if the ground softens; good chance. |

Ran three times as a 2yo for Karl Burke before moving to Ireland, where he won a handicap at Dundalk (7f, AW) in March; joined this yard for 6,000gns and finished second at Yarmouth last month (6-5f; 7f); this is a belated first go at 6f but he has shown early speed. |

Ran three times as a 2yo for Karl Burke before moving to Ireland, where he won a handicap at Dundalk (7f, AW) in March; makes his debut for last year's winning stable having changed hands for 6,000gns this month; market useful. |

Sligo 5.5f maiden winner in 2024; has adapted well to this surface with creditable efforts in four starts; took a 2l third over C&D last time (nose behind Comfort Line); runs off the same mark and Keane rides again. |

24th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Five-time winner (5f-7f) when based in Ireland; below form in two runs for current stable and his stamina for 1m is still unproven after fading over C&D 18 days ago (went off fast). |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 216y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Five-time winner (5f-7f) when based in Ireland; attracted stewards' attention when never-dangerous seventh on last month's stable debut at Wolverhampton (5f, AW); might well come good for Richard Hughes soon but his stamina for 1m is unproven and he's quite tricky to weigh up at the moment. |

Proving consistent in handicaps this year; handled drop back to 5f at Down Royal 17 days ago, coming home well to grab third behind Dandy Land; shaped well that day from a less than ideal position, so capable of turning the tables. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Maiden hasn't built on early promise, but some good runs all the same between turf and AW; third in a big field at the Curragh two starts ago, but a lesser effort on soft over 7f here since; can do better. |

Competitive in 6f/7f handicaps on AW this season before posting a very promising third of 20 on her return to turf at the Curragh last time (6.5f, yielding); first-time cheekpieces worn that day retained; up 1lb. |

Sole win came over this trip at Tipperary last season off 5lb lower; not the clearest of runs when 1.5l behind Bella Colombia at Killarney latest; nudged up 2lb and wide draw not ideal, but weighted to reverse that Killarney form and enters calculations. |

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. |

Four-time AW winner at 7f/1m for Jennie Candlish with his last win coming at Southwell off 70 in August; not at the same level since, but the best of three runs for this yard came last time here over 5f when 3l behind the winner; into 0-60 company now and returns to winning distance. |
