9st 6lb |
Maiden winner as a 3yo ended the Flat season with a rating of 95; didn't really take to hurdling over the winter but has improved back on the Flat this year, easily winning a Curragh premier handicap winner over this trip in June; however, wasn't as good at this level at Goodwood since. |

9st 0lb |
Didn't really take to hurdling but she relished the step up in trip in this code when easily winning a 13-runner handicap at the Curragh (1m4f, good) in June; she has to prove that brilliance was no one-off but it was certainly an impressive performance and she could have a part to play today. |

Down Royal maiden winner last June (10.5f, good); ran well in 1m2f handicap here last October and just 1lb higher here; shaped like coming back to form when keeping on from the back over 1m2f here latest; bred to stay this far; could go well. |

Won a big handicap at the Curragh in October 2024 (1m2f, good) which was his last success; beaten 7l into second back there in June but then found trouble at Galway and never had a chance from where he was early doors at Leopardstown nine days ago. |

Last win was in a premier handicap at the Curragh in October 2024 (1m2f, good); mark remains 4lb above that last success; made a pleasing start to Flat campaign with Curragh second; mid-division at Galway after meeting trouble; market could provide clues. |

Hasn't won since landing premier handicap at the Curragh in October 2024 (1m2f, good); remains 6lb above that last success but shaped as though coming back to form at the Curragh on latest and ran well at this meeting in 2023 and 2024; could go well. |

9st 8lb |
Five-time handicap winner, three on AW; latest win at Leopardstown (1m4f, good) off 7lb lower in May followed up with good run at the Curragh; always behind at Galway last time and tries new trip. |
12/1 |

31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 5lb |
3-3 on the AW but effective on turf and won easily on return from a 107 day break at Leopardstown in May (1m4f, good) off 8lb lower; had excuse when third of 13 (1.75l behind This Songisforyou) off revised mark at the Curragh latest (fly leapt from stalls); well-drawn here and in the mix once he behaves himself at the start. |

Three-time AW winner added a second turf win in decisive fashion on return from 107 days off on first try over 1m4f (good) at Leopardstown last month; ridden by 7lb claimer that day so effectively 15lb higher here; will need a big career best to follow up, but unexposed at this distance and can't be discounted. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |

Both career wins came over 10.5f and 1m5f at Down Royal last season; running well in defeat this season but handicapper very slow to relent; needs to find a bit more off current mark. |

2-13 on the Flat, both wins coming at Down Royal over 10.5f (good) and 1m5f (yielding) last season; consistent this season, never worse than fifth in five outings; looked unlucky in running when fifth of 18 at Galway, capable of getting in the mix. |

12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |

Seven-time turf winner; has never won on AW (despite 18 attempts) so it seems encouraging that he managed a second placing on his latest visit to Dundalk four weeks ago; that was prefaced by a second at Gowran earlier that week. |

1m4f Roscommon maiden winner went close in a valuable 1m6f handicap here in May off 10lb lower; not disgraced in a 1m4f Group 3 at Cork but hiked up 6lb and beaten 11l on return to a handicap over C&D latest; bit to prove off current mark. |

1m4f Roscommon maiden winner (good) shaped promisingly when a 1.5l second of 24 on handicap debut here in May (1m6f, good) off 10lb lower; not disgraced in Cork Group 3 (1m4f, good) on latest, but 6lb rise for that makes things tougher back in handicap company. |

Has the merit of being a C&D winner; stable won this race last year, when he took fourth place; fair run when fourth at Leopardstown two months ago; appeals as one who could make his presence felt at a decent price; each-way option in a very competitive race. |

9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |

Won off 5lb lower at the Curragh last season (1m2f, yielding); not a bad run over that C&D on seasonal return but struggled upped to 1m4f there on latest; eased 1lb, cheekpieces go on and this shorter trip more suitable so not dismissed. |

Group 3 winner ran a huge race in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket (2m2f, gd-fm) last October, beaten just 1.25l into second; just 1lb higher here but hasn't really fired in three runs this term and this trip looks on the sharp side. |

Navan maiden winner for Andy Oliver last September when 125-1; pipped on handicap debut next time (1m5f, yielding) but showed a semblance of that form only once (in first-time cheekpieces on penultimate start) in her four starts since; headgear is now removed and she's on a good mark granted a revival on debut for new stable. |

Shock 125-1 winner of Navan maiden last season, then placed on handicap debut at Down Royal (1m5f, yielding); caught the eye making late gains over 1m2f here (good) last month in first-time cheekpieces (retained); eased 2lb for that 4.75l defeat (0.75l behind Cloud Seeker) and she's an intriguing runner for her in-form stable. |

Won on handicap bow at Cork (1m4f, soft) last season off 14lb lower and then ran well in a Listed heat at Naas when a 3l second behind Carmers (1m5f, good); poor both starts this season, albeit heavy ground may not have suited on latest; could do better back on a sounder surface. |

Won on handicap debut at Cork (1m4f, soft) last April off 75; creditable second behind Carmers in a 1m5f listed race here (good) in May; 2m may have stretched him on return from a break at Dundalk last month; sharper for that and interesting back in a handicap. |

Progressive this season, winning at Navan off 65 and at this venue off 78; failing to maintain his form when well fancied to complete in a premier handicap at the Curragh contested by several of these rivals; that was too bad to be true, unwise to discount. |
