9st 10lb |
Second runner for in-form yard; won over hurdles at Killarney last month and was beaten a short head in this race last year off 3lb lower; difficult task in hot handicap hurdle at Galway latest and not discounted returned to the Flat. |

Dual purpose winner won for the second time over hurdles when narrowly taking a 2m4f Killarney handicap last time; needs more down in trip off 7lb higher. |

Dual Flat winner is only 1-18 over hurdles, but has put up solid runs the last twice at Downpatrick; the blinkers worn last time are retained and can be involved, but needs more to win. |

10st 7lb |
Won over hurdles and fences in Britain on soft/heavy; standout effort for current yard came over here last month when coming home strongly to be beaten a nose in 2m5f handicap hurdle, after being a bit short of room and having to be switched in closing stages; up 3lb for that but should go well. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 2m 1f 87y |
11st 9lb |
Has held form well since scoring off 14lb lower over 2m6f here in April; narrow defeats off revised mark at Cork (24.5f) and Listowel (23.5f) before beaten 2l in first-time blinkers (now discarded) at Killarney (20.5f); this shorter trip raises questions. |

3rd 6 |
16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |
11st 4lb |
Has been in fine form since the spring, winning a 2m6f Down Royal novice handicap before runner-up in Cork and Listowel handicaps over 3m; should be fine dropped in trip and blinkers replace cheekpieces; up 2lb; player. |
4/1 |

Point-to-point winner got off the mark in a 2m6f novice handicap (good) at Down Royal last month with an easy 7l victory; good run off 7lb higher under today's rider when beaten a head at Cork (3m1f, good); up another 4lb and enters higher grade, but big player with cheekpieces added. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 13lb |
Is 1-13 over fences with the win coming over C&D last summer off 91 (yielding to soft); hard to predict this term with some okay runs in defeat interspersed with poor efforts; his run at Galway was one of the latter when tailed off over fences but not a bad effort over hurdles here on penultimate; others preferred. |
15/1 |

10th 17 |
2nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |

Mixes it between chasing and hurdling; consistent last year including C&D second over fences; a little less predictable lately, but couple of good runs at Limerick and jockey booking is noted. |
14/1 |

11st 8lb |
Flat winner has shown much-improved form over hurdles this season, winning at Clonmel and Limerick the last twice over approximately this trip; another 7lb rise demands more, but he has to be on the shortlist. |
11/4 |

1st 4 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Won as a 2yo in Britain; failed to make much impression over hurdles last winner; different proposition now; has gone up 13lb for his improved performances (second, followed by a win) at Clonmel this season; sustained progress is feasible |
4/1 |

Flat winner ran his best race over hurdles when just denied over C&D last time, seemingly appreciating the livelier ground; is up 4lb but doesn't have to find much more to go one better. |

Nice pedigree and shrewd owners; first time to be a single-figure price when second to subsequent winner at Clonmel where he was staying on over 2m3f; probably wants to go this way, so given a pass for Killarney sixth. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |

Maiden was beaten 5l by today's rival Global Skies at Clonmel last time, his best handicap run; raised 2lb for that and, if he has progressed since, can run respectably again. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 11lb |
Won over C&D in May off 87 (good to yielding); bounced back from a poor Killarney run back here over 2m last time when denied by a neck (2m, good); up 3lb more now but the claimer negates that and he likes it around here. |

2nd 2 |
8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Went up 10lb for winning a 2m3f handicap hurdle here in May; has to bounce back from an ordinary effort at Killarney last month over this shorter trip but the booking of Jack Kennedy an obvious plus. |

Got off the mark in a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in May and a solid run in a Cartmel chase since; 5lb higher than for his win and is up in grade too, but can run well. |

Chase winner is 0-8 over hurdles; beaten similar distances over timber the last twice since falling in a Navan handicap chase back in March; not easy to fancy but can't be discounted given current form of stable. |

8th 5 |
16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |

Won a novice chase at Cork last October, but is a maiden over hurdles; well beaten in this sphere at Ballinrobe last time over 2m, but this trip could suit; is capable of better, so not ruled out. |

Won four-runner novice chase at Cork (16.5f, good) in October; 0-6 over hurdles but has run well in defeat; beaten 5.25l when fourth off this mark at Navan in September; fell in a handicap chase at Navan latest; not discounted back over hurdles. |

Has posted several solid efforts in defeat over hurdles, with best form coming at Clonmel; however, was pulled-up in a tongue-tie at Killarney last time but that is left off today so can rebound. |

16th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 85y |

Some decent efforts in defeat in maidens and handicaps in varying ground conditions; beaten favourite in a Clonmel maiden last time; steps up in trip today and a tongue-tie added; needs more but not ruled out. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |

The best of five hurdle runs came when a 1l runner-up in a C&D handicap in April; not as good at Limerick since in more testing ground; can run well but has a bit to find with the best of these. |
