8st 2lb |
Third of 15 on the Monday of the Galway festival last month (12.3f, yielding) and found a surge of improvement in a first-time hood to demolish a big field there (1m6f, yielding to soft) four days later; hit with a whopping 15lb rise but that may not stop him given his dominance last time. |

Steadily improved for handicaps and appreciated ease in the ground last twice when runner-up at Down Royal (1m2f) and Galway (1m6f); well-held both times but was behind very well-handicapped winner at Galway and finished 2.75l ahead of Lady Pimsoll; considered but probably best on ground with a give. |

Sole success came in Ballinrobe (9.5f, good) claimer last summer; never out of the three in last four handicap starts over a variety of trips; appreciated return to good ground when beaten 1.5l by Fianna three days ago at Roscommon; extra two furlongs no problem and big chance if backing up quickly. |

Running well in recent starts; good second at Limerick in June (12.5f, soft) and fourth of 18 behind easy winner at Galway latest (1m6f, yld-sft); eased 1lb, return to quicker ground no problem and she's an interesting runner for in-form yard. |

Recorded a third AW win in July; didn't run badly at Galway over 1m4f (yielding to soft) and his lesser effort there next time is likely explained by the fact it came a day later; hood on for hurdling debut and not ruled out. |

Likeable front running veteran goes well here; last won over C&D in May 2025 off this mark and was beaten a neck in this race last year, again off this mark; showed he retained ability when second at Fairyhouse in May; trip was too far on latest, could make a bold bid. |
