27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 20y |
9st 12lb |
Landed back-to-back 1m claimers at Bellewstown and Killarney in July and recorded a third claiming win at Gowran 15 days ago under a positive ride; 3lb rise for latest but in great heart and one to consider back in handicap company. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Landed back-to-back 1m claimers at Bellewstown and Killarney in July when beating a few of these; couldn't do three in a row at Ballinrobe when third; didn't transfer that form to handicaps at Galway last time; dangerous in these races though; drawn wide. |

First reserve; went close in Down Royal handicap in May (7f, soft) off 2lb lower; in excellent form in claimers, winning at Bellewstown and Killarney then second at Ballinrobe; poorly drawn but can't discount in current form. |

9st 8lb |
In good form lately in races in this category; won with plenty to spare over 1m4f at Tramore and then second to a well-fancied rival over 1m at Killarney; this trip should be fine. |

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. |

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. |

Maiden produced her best run to date when staying on for a neck second in a 1m4f (gd-yld) rated race at Tramore and had a few of these behind; step up in trip here could suit now back in handicap company and Keane booked; not discounted. |

Saxon Warrior filly has been disappointing since entering handicaps; fair fourth in a Killarney claimer last month; led before backpedalling in the straight at Galway; hasn't raced beyond an extended 1m; dam's half-brother won Group 3 over 1m5f. |

Off the mark at Ayr in May when landing a 1m1f handicap off 63; some decent runs since, most notably when 1l behind Minaun View in a Ballinrobe claimer in July; finished further behind that rival at Killarney next time and posted a moderate effort in a Naas handicap latest. |

Four-time AW winner; sole success on turf came in 2021; despite negatives attached to her turf record and a hefty burden, holds a definite chance on her second in a 22-runner handicap at Leopardstown 12 days ago. |

Four-time AW winner; sole success on turf came in 2021; ran on well over 7f at Naas latest, beaten just 2l; step up in trip a plus on that evidence and runs off the same mark; place chance. |

Off the mark at 11th attempt in 1m1f Ballinrobe maiden in May but hasn't made much of an impact in handicaps; decent effort when fourth at Bellewstown over this trip but weakened into ninth in claimer at Killarney 30 days ago; could bounce back now given more of a chance by the handicapper. |
