11st 13lb |
Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when runner-up at Down Royal (2m1, soft, 7-2 fav') in final start for Gary McGill in January; unfancied and well beaten in two runs for new yard; may go well back in 0-100 company now. |

Three-time hurdles winner returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January off 3lb lower; weak in the market for Ayr run last time, weakening quickly to finish last of six finishers; in the mix at his best. |

Has won three times, including over C&D two years ago when trained by current handler, who has taken over once more after eight starts for Gary McGill; returned to form when second of 11 finishers at Down Royal (2m1f, soft) in January and this Irish-trained challenger should be in the firing line. |

Maiden hurdle winner at Kilbeggan last year; back hurdling after failures in chases at Tramore and Ballinrobe; rarely at her best in the past year, apart from when second at Wexford (2m1f, good); first reserve. |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 48y |
10st 10lb |
Maiden hurdle winner (Kilbeggan) last year who bounced back to form with second at Wexford (2m1f, good) in May and solid run from out of the handicap at Listowel; favourite but never travelled when well held on chase debut in Tramore handicap last month, so definite concerns. |

Maiden hurdle winner last year who bounced back to form with second at Wexford (2m1f, good) in May; backed that up when beaten 6l into fifth at Listowel when out of the weights; below form when beaten favourite at Wexford lto; makes chase debut and appeals as the type with more to give. |

Won a Wexford handicap hurdle last summer off 78 (2m1f, good); bagged a handicap chase win at Tramore in May (2m6f, good); bounced back from a poor run at Wexford when third of 13 at Tramore last time (2m6f, good); reverts to hurdles now off a 12lb lower mark but was beaten 21l at Wexford when last seen in this sphere. |

Bolted up over C&D here in May (Fr Gilligansvoyage second) but pulled up in follow up bid off 5lb higher at Wexford; needs to bounce back but boasts course form figures of 221 so that's not impossible. |

Won over hurdles at this meeting last year and added a chase win at Tramore last time over 2m6f; the runner-up then has won since, so should be capable of going well off a 5lb higher mark. |

Has refused to race in the past; won two handicap hurdles this summer before a poor last run; could still be in fair form and he's a three-time Flat winner on turf, albeit a long time ago. |

2nd Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 40y |

Three-time Flat winner but has really come good over hurdles lately with two handicap wins at Wexford; hat-trick bid here but has a 14lb rise to contend with and seems to be very much a good ground performer. |

1st 12 |
7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 55y |
10st 9lb |
Has done most of his winning on the Flat in Britain, and has found a new lease of life over hurdles at his local track last month, following up a good second in a 2m1f handicap hurdle in early July by getting up on the line to land a similar handicap over the same trip three weeks later; up 6lb for those two efforts is far from excessive and he can be thereabouts once more with the step up in trip unlikely to be an issue. |

Maiden has mostly run well this year; beaten just 2l when runner up at Tramore in May; beaten similar distances on last three starts and needs to find a bit more to get her head in front; cheekpieces replace blinkers worn last time. |

7th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 180y |

0-21 but some reasons for hope in her runs this season; was a 2l second at Tramore in May (2m, good) and okay efforts at Cork (2m2f, good) when fifth of 23 and when third of ten over C&D last time (good); more needed to win but definite place possibilities. |
