10st 7lb |
Progressive handicapper scoring back-to-back wins at Cork over the summer (good) and solid run after aggregate 15lb rise when third at Killarney last time; more needed and softer ground may not be ideal but still respected. |

Point-to-point winner got off the mark hurdling at the 12th attempt when scoring over C&D last month, making much of running and finding plenty for pressure from last in a first-time hood; 7lb rise seems fair and another big run expected. |

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. |

Won back-to-back handicap hurdles at Thurles (2m) and Cork (2m4f) late last year; 2026 form is less persuasive, though the form of his Sligo fourth was boosted significantly by the winner Timurshah in winning twice at the Galway festival. |

Back to form with close third under a positive ride at Leopardstown (1m7f) in July; another good effort to secure second place when out of the handicap at Tramore (2m); folded tamely at Navan a fortnight ago but big drop in class and dangerous if allowed to dictate from the front. |
