8st 13lb |
Won a 6f Dundalk maiden in December and solid runs next three starts, 5f and 6f; poor Navan run in May possibly came too soon after his previous start; showed useful form in making all to beat Nakamura at Fairyhouse; not much between the pair and Joyful Tidings who dead-heated for fourth. |

Won a 6f Dundalk maiden in December and solid runs next three starts between 5f and 6f; his poor showing at Navan last time might have been due to the week turnaround from Naas; can go well if rebounding. |

10st 1lb |
Nine-time turf winner, including a 6f Group 3 in 2023; has also won at Listed level and was once rated 108, so has dropped a long way; good efforts over this trip and 6.5f here recently and even better at Galway last time when a close second of 15 (7f, yielding); had things in his favour that day but should remain competitive off 4lb higher. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Narrowly beaten in a 6f Dundalk maiden in April before winning over 5f there 13 days later; definite merit in handicap debut at Naas, close up until reportedly hitting a ridge over a furlong down, before rallying; went close in a C&D handicap before a solid third over 6f on latest; likely to make her presence felt. |

Narrowly beaten in a 6f Dundalk maiden in April before winning over 5f there 13 days later; definite merit in handicap debut at Naas last month, close up until reportedly hitting a ridge over a furlong down, before rallying; went close over the minimum trip here last time; worth considering. |

Wins in his turn, albeit five of his six victories have been on AW; below par at Ayr last time, but solid runs in 6f turf handicaps earlier in the summer; this is start number 16 of the year. |

The bulk of his winning has been done on AW but he did win a 5f handicap at the Curragh last August; recent efforts need bettering but he would seem likely to give his running. |

3rd 4 (7) |

Much stronger record on AW (5-30, placed nine times) as opposed to turf (1-25, placed four times); two of his last three starts on grass have been satisfactory; probably superior to stablemate Apache Outlaw. |

Useful form in two runs in decent company last summer (both over 6f; good); second of 13 at this venue; not quite as good but respectable nonetheless when third at Naas; coped with easier ground when making a winning reappearance here early this month; opening mark seems fair; strong chance. |

2-7 on the AW but is 1-13 on turf (win came on yielding); won at Dundalk in March off 3lb higher; the best of three turf runs since then came over 7f at Cork on penultimate; not as good dropped back to 6f at the Curragh on latest; moves back up in trip now and might prefer an ease in the ground. |

6th 2 (13) |
27th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

Progressed well last year over 7f, winning twice; resumed progress on return in March when defying top-weight at Dundalk; towards the rear over C&D before more like his best when fifth of 15 over 7f at Cork 13 days ago; probably lacks the pace of several of the 6f winners in this field. |

Won 7f Leopardstown maiden at two; respectable effort on comeback in 3yo handicap at this venue, weakening late over 7f; won with plenty to spare over a little further than this when apprentice-ridden at Listowel; up 7lb and no claim this time, may be vulnerable. |

Won his maiden over C&D last December and overall form figures here read 2313; not as consistent on turf this season; ran well at Cork in June but down the field on latest at the Curragh; another one that could potentially improve now returned to the AW, but he's 4lb wrong here. |
