2nd Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 109y |
10st 0lb |
Dual-purpose veteran; winner of nine races across both codes; bolted up at Sligo in May (1m6f, yld-sft) off 6lb lower; struggled the last twice however, and previous runs here have not been his best. |
11/1 |

Veteran gained the ninth win of his career when bolting up at Sligo on penultimate (1m6f, yld-sft); raised 8lb and couldn't follow up at Listowel (2m, good); drop back in trip a plus and has run well here before; place shout. |

0-10 on turf on the Flat; placed twice last season, over 1m6f here (soft) and over 13.5f (gd-yld) at Sligo; 2lb lower now and shaped okay in a Limerick maiden hurdle latest; cheekpieces on; could go well. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 40y |
9st 10lb |
Got off the mark when easily winning a Tramore claimer over 1m4f last time; has run well at this track before but likely to find this trip on the sharp side. |
12/1 |
|
1st 6 (3) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
8st 12lb |
0-14 overall (0-7 on turf) but wasn't beaten far at all in a 1m4f (gd-yld) claimer at Limerick on latest when an unconsidered 25-1 shot; also went close enough in a 1m4f Dundalk claimer in December; poorly treated on the figures but that was the case last time so could outrun likely odds again. |
20/1 |

9st 11lb |
Lightly raced maiden wasn't sighted in three maidens last year and last of 17 on handicap debut at Navan in October (upset in stalls), trained then by Michael Grassick; big step up in trip for seasonal/yard debut and best watched. |

8th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 30y |
10st 1lb |
Lightly raced maiden hasn't been sighted in three maidens, twice when slowly away; hood tried last time now discarded; hard to fancy on handicap debut on limited evidence so far but potential improver. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Well held in AW handicaps; improved in first-time hood on turf return in late May when chasing home hot favourite Ballyadam over this trip at Listowel (good); moderate run over 1m4f at Bellewstown last week; return to longer trip should help. |
10/1 |
|
8th 3 (6) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 37y |
10st 0lb |
Well held in AW handicaps but nicely improved in first-time hood on turf return in late May when chasing home a hot favourite over 2m at Listowel (good); contender if handling drop in trip and sharper track (good draw). |
15/2 |
|
2nd 12 (2) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 40y |
8st 13lb |
Six-race maiden has come up short in first three AW handicaps at 10.5f-1.4f; failed to beat a rival when last seen in January; hood goes on now upped in trip but others more likely. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |
11st 13lb |
Three wins last season and shaped nicely on return to hurdling at Bellewstown (24.5f, good) 10 days ago; never won off a mark this high but definite place shout dropped back in trip. |
11/1 |
|
4th 6 |
4th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 116y |
11st 2lb |
Dual-purpose performer is 3-21 over hurdles with all three gained in an eight-day period in August last year; has been ticking over nicely on the Flat without winning of late; could make his presence felt. |
16/1 |
|
6th 9 (9) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Two solid runs since return from winter break; 4l third at Dundalk (1m4f), then 0.5l behind Jurality when third at Down Royal (Synchronize fourth); 2lb rise for that seems a touch harsh, but place claims again. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 80y |
9st 7lb |
Gained reward for a string of solid efforts when winning at Navan (1m5f, good) last month and only narrowly failed to follow up at Bellewstown five days later, getting caught on the line over 1m7f after forcing it; up a total of 12lb for those efforts so more needed. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 3 (12) |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 1m 6f 109y |
9st 13lb |
Gained reward for a string of solid efforts when always well positioned and winning at Navan (1m5f, good) 25 days ago; 6lb higher now but rider's 2lb claim partly negates that; consistent sort is a big player again. |

8st 13lb |
A couple of her runs in 2024 suggested she could win a race but missed almost all of 2025 and heavy defeat on return from long layoff at Down Royal last month; cheekpieces go on and she's on a dangerous mark on her best form so check the market. |
28/1 |
|
10th 12 (7) |
29th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

10th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Winning hurdler returned to Flat recently to justify strong market support when hooded first-time in 2m Down Royal handicap under today's rider, beating Sunday's Navan winner Jurality with some authority; hit with 12lb rise but could well play a role. |
5/1 |
|
1st 13 (8) |
29th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Better hurdler, winning Sligo maiden (2m2f, good to yielding) in October, just okay run in handicap at Punchestown festival on latest; precious little of note on the Flat last year, tried hooded now on return and may improve. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Maiden gelding by Frankel; started his career with the Gosdens; has shown potential for a belated breakthrough in his two most recent races; recovered from interference at the start to finish fourth over this trip at Down Royal in May; leading contender based on his second to solid yardstick Jurality over 1m5f at Navan; same good 7lb claimer aboard now. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 14 (15) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Maiden produced one of his better efforts on latest when not far behind a couple of these rivals at Down Royal (2m, good); place shout if he backs that up, but overall profile suggests that's not guaranteed. |
9/1 |
|
4th 14 (12) |
29th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
8st 10lb |
Dual-purpose maiden showed some ability in maiden hurdles but has been poor in handicaps; of limited appeal back on the Flat. |

Verdict
Little strength in depth in this low-grade handicap. Recent winner Desert Friend and last week’s Leopardstown third Jurality hold strong claims, but MEPHISTO (nap) is on an attractive mark compared to the AW, on hist first turf start since October 2024. [Alan Hewison]
