11st 1lb |
2-4 over fences, though not seen in this discipline since well held in a Grade 3 at this fixture two years ago; he returns in excellent form, in recent weeks winning on the Flat (2m) and over hurdles at Cork (3m); could have a big run in him. |

11st 6lb |
Smart dual-purpose type won a nice Flat prize over 2m a fortnight ago; came off worse in a couple of 3m clashes with Happy Jacky last year, but not by much, including when beaten a head in the corresponding race; relishes good ground. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

Dual-purpose; signed off last season with a solid effort in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, gd-fm); may have needed the run over an inadequate 1m6f here last month; sharper now and moves up in trip; beaten in this last year off 8lb lower but respected nonetheless. |

29th Jul 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
10st 2lb |
Three flat wins for Michael Bell came at 1m6f on quick ground; ordinary enough hurdles form for current yard but fine run on the flat over this trip at the Curragh on Derby weekend back on decent ground, only losing second late on when 2lb out of handicap; down in grade here and tongue-tie tried; has to be respected. |

3rd 11 (1) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

Dual-purpose; 3-13 on the Flat for Michael Bell, all three wins over 1m6f on fast ground; has placed AW form at around this trip; modest form on easy ground over hurdles so far for this yard but return to quicker conditions on the Flat could revive; 2lb wrong. |

8st 8lb |
The lack of any win since a maiden hurdle in January 2024 (first run for Willie Mullins) is a concern but he's produced solid efforts on Flat over 2m2f, 1m6f and 2m on his last three starts and may well be an out-and-out stayer; no shock if he's on the premises. |
12/1 |

4th 7 (9) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

Second runner for yard; sole win on Flat came over 1m on AW in 2023 in France; may have needed the run when weakening over 1m6f here (good) on latest last month; ran well over 18.5f in Ulster Cesarewitch last September off 1lb lower; chance stepped back up in trip. |

9st 7lb |
Hurdle/Flat winner; ran in snatches when a 5l fifth in a 2m fast-ground handicap at the Curragh on what proved to be his final start for Donnacha O'Brien; that last run was his first on ground quicker than good and he does like the mud. |
7/1 |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

Dual-purpose; hurdle winner is 1-9 on the Flat; has come up dry since winning a Galway Festival maiden last July (12.5f, yielding); kept on nicely for third over 1m6f here latest (Delta behind); raised 2lb for that but should go well again up in trip. |
6/1 |

3rd 4 (6) |
24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |

Winner of a Galway festival handicap off 82 in July (1m5f, yielding), beating a subsequent Group 3 winner; added a hurdles win in a Punchestown maiden in January (2m, soft to heavy); never on terms on return to the Flat at Cork last time when seventh. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

One of two for yard that has won two of the last four renewals; useful hurdler was well held on return to the Flat behind Poetic Sound here on latest (1m6f, yielding) but was runner up in this last year on good ground off 1lb higher; dangerous to discount. |

Stayed on well to gain third career success off 8lb lower here on latest (1m6f, yielding); both previous runs at around this trip have not been his best so could be vulnerable upped in distance on quicker ground off career high mark. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y |

Won twice over 1m4f in 2024 and began last season in form of his life over 1m6f at Navan, touched off in handicap and fine third in Listed contest; last month's 1m4f Leopardstown comeback run was encouraging, could well improve enough from that to play a major role here back at 1m6f. |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |
8st 11lb |
Veteran; talented hurdler a latecomer to the Flat but showed promise in maidens and bolted up on handicap debut in this sphere at Listowel 26 days ago (2m, good); hiked up 9lb for that and this is a deeper race but he can't be discounted. |
9/2 |

1st 1 (4) |
31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 40y |

Good quality NH performer, including when good fourth in BetMGM Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham; took the runner-up spot in a Ballinrobe maiden (1m5f, good to yielding) last time when 7l behind the winner; must carry top weight for Flat handicap debut but big chance. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 4f 183y |

High-class NH performer, most recently good fourth in BetMGM Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham; two previous Flat runs were on the Dundalk AW, notably previous month when 2l third of 10 over 1m4f; ground no problem, not sure the tight track will suit. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

Fairyhouse maiden winner last season (1m4f); cracking run on seasonal return in big field 1m6f handicap at the Curragh in May; latest run over 2m back there disappointing (cheekpieces tried then are discarded) but capable of better, is rated 91 and Patrick Mullins is an eye-catching booking. |
9/4 |

10th 3 (8) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 76y |

1m4f Fairyhouse maiden winner last season (gd-yld); promising seasonal reappearance here 33 days ago, staying on for a 5.5l fourth of 24 over 1m6f (2l behind Kilmeaden in third); well worth a go at this trip on that evidence and mark unchanged; cheekpieces added. |

Got off the mark in a 1m4f Fairyhouse maiden in June having been third in a quality Navan Listed race the time before; heavy ground a possible excuse when disappointing off top weight at Listowel in September; gelded since and he went close on his seasonal return last year. |

Eight wins over hurdles and going for three in a row in this race, landing previous two renewals under this jockey; beat Reverend Hubert by a head last year; after eight months off, comeback third in Killarney chase was a good effort; quiet since but can't rule him out. |
8/1 |

Veteran has notched up nine wins over jumps but is 1-9 on the Flat and hasn't won in this sphere since 2024; however, he was a close third in this last season off 1lb higher on good ground so he's not dismissed; 1lb wrong. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 136y |
11st 12lb |
Prolific winner over hurdles (rated 144); did okay over fences last year and was fair third over 3m2f on his return to action at Killarney; stays 3m well, so this trip looks too short, plus he was disappointing when favourite for last year's Mayo National. |
