10st 0lb |
Won a Naas nursery over this trip last September and won over C&D off 1lb lower than today's mark in April; not as good at Cork next time but should be competitive if ready after an absence. |

5th 5 (9) |
19th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 4lb |
2-7 on turf; has returned in fine form this season; close third at Naas (5f, soft); went two places better at Bellewstown (5f, soft) on latest; raised 7lb and this is harder but the forecast rain is a big plus for him; dangerous to dismiss. |

Made all for Navan nursery win (5f, soft) last September; good third there next time from 6lb higher; led most of the way when 0.75l third at Naas (5f, soft) on return last month; good chance in receipt of 3yo allowance with the help of rider's 5lb claim. |

10st 5lb |
Dual C&D winner is now 1lb above last winning turf mark; prominent racer handles any ground; ran a couple of belters over C&D in the summer off higher marks; held lately but has to be of interest in this grade. |

8st 7lb |
Several good runs in a busy campaign; 3lb out of the weights but a repeat of his close fourth in a premier handicap here in June wouldn't see him far away; reportedly pulled a front shoe when below par last time. |

10st 2lb |
Four-time winner (three at this trip) on good ground; poor form shown in her last three outings but drops into this lower grade for the first time since April 2025, and that resulted in a victory, so don't rule her out. |

9th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |

Four wins have all been on fast tracks, including last year at Bellewstown (twice) and Down Royal over 5f; standout run this term at former venue when third (5f, soft); never counted in two most recent runs at Navan over 6f; opposable. |

One of two for yard; won off 9lb higher at Cork last season; no joy yet this year but shaped better than the result over C&D when last seen in June; eased 4lb, drops in class, yard in red-hot form and rain no problem; interesting. |

9st 6lb |
Four-time winner at 5f/6f on good and yielding ground; scored off 1lb lower at Navan in August (6f, good) but has come up short off revised mark twice since; probably wouldn't want to see much rain. |

8st 9lb |
Having a good season, recrding wins at Naas, Curragh and last month at Navan over this trip; drop back to 5f backfired at latter venue nine days later so will appreciate return to this trip; could go well. |

5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Won C&D maiden on yielding last year; three wins this season, including over 6f (good) here on latest, prevailing by a head; 2lb rise for that seems reasonable and the drop back to 5f no problem; should go well again. |

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. |

Thrown in on last year's Irish form; yet to shine for current stable and would appeal more over a shorter trip and with headgear on; only of interest if backed. |

Five-time winner on turf but 0-13 on the AW; won at Bellewstown (5f, soft) last October but he's struggled since, including in three starts for this stable (5f-1m); drops in grade but best watched. |

Won a Cork maiden over this trip for her former yard last summer in first-time blinkers; has been well below that level on soft ground since but should do better on this drying surface; blinkers left off; not ruled out. |

11th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 0m 5f 3y |

Cork maiden (5f, good) winner who was tailed off last over C&D on final start for Danny Murphy in October; never a factor over further trips since joining this yard; can't fancy unless market speaks; blinkers go back on. |
