9st 6lb |
Winner this year over shorter at Dundalk and Fairyhouse and better again over 1m1f at Leopardstown six days ago when beaten a neck off this mark in 22-runner contest, having had every chance; not at best on only previous attempt at this longer trip so bit to prove. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |

Winner of two of his five starts since April; possibly unsuited by the 1m4f trip at Fairyhouse on latest; this trip is probably closer to his optimum. |

Four-time winner with two of those coming here, including last week (1m2f, good) when keeping on well to win off 6lb lower under today's rider; tries this trip for the first time and should be competitive. |

C&D winner in the winter and has added two wins on turf; likes a bit of space, so draw is okay, but she might be high enough in the handicap now. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 195y |
9st 13lb |
Keeping herself busy; came home strongly under Orla Tynan to win at Roscommon (7.5f, good) but went up 10lb for that and was only midfield at the Curragh, albeit over 6.5f that was probably too sharp; others might be better in. |

Improver this year, all three wins under this rider, most recently over extended 7f at Roscommon last month, coming home strongly after being switched to the outer in straight; hit with a 10lb rise for that however and upped in grade now; not sure the drop in trip will suit. |

Strike rate of 1-32 on turf; sole success came on heavy ground over 7f at Naas in 2024; fair form at a modest level lately, needs to raise his game in new headgear combination; third reserve. |

Heavily-raced gelding; gained a tenth career win at Dundalk in April and seems to be holding his form well; 3l second at the Curragh and a fair fifth at Bellewstown 13 days ago; 0-11 record at this venue is a negative, placed three times. |

A 9yo with ten wins on the board and arrives here in good form, last time overcoming a slow start to finish second at the Curragh (7f); won't mind returning to further and he's firmly in the mix. |

Heavily-raced gelding recorded a seventh AW win recently; turf record is less persuasive (3-71), though some encouragement can be taken from last month's third of 20 at Leopardstown. |

Generally consistent sort gained a second handicap win at Down Royal (7f, soft) two weeks ago off 58; in form but most of best turf form is on softer ground so probably needs rain. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win came over C&D in 2024 but has been running consistently in defeat on AW; beaten just a neck at Wolverhampton 18 days ago off 2lb lower; may build on that back at scene of his win, but with his 1-25 strike-rate caution is advised. |

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. |

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. |

Was in the form of his life around this time two seasons ago with back-to-back 6f wins for Michael O'Callaghan; signs of a revival when seventh of 21 at Naas last month; needs to provide further reassurance to become a betting proposition. |

Four-time winner for Ed Dunlop; lost his way in Ireland but bounced back to make a winning start for Tony Carroll at Chepstow (1m2f, good to soft; fine on faster) last month; possibly found the run coming too soon when only fifth over 1m at Brighton six days later; probably stays 1m4f and retains handicapping scope on his best form. |
