10th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
11st 11lb |
Got back to winning ways at Gowran last month (7f, good); soundly beaten off revised mark twice since, but has been eased 6lb for those two tame efforts, so is just 1lb higher than his last win; has run well on the AW so not dismissed. |
7/1 |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 180y |
9st 12lb |
Just denied by Jon Riggens over C&D in June, more recently made all over 7f at Gowran; five days later awkward start and soon beaten in a similar event under 7lb penalty; capable 5lb claimer now booked so don't rule out. |

10st 0lb |
Carries a 7lb penalty due to his C&D victory five days ago; that win came following a good third at the Galway festival (7f, yielding) but he's not the most consistent overall, so not guaranteed to reproduce his winning form. |

9st 10lb |
Lightly-raced maiden was touched off on handicap debut over 7f at Gowran, most recently showed plenty of speed but didn't quite get home over 7.5f at Roscommon; drops in trip now up against some seasoned sprinters. |

Lightly-raced maiden was touched off on handicap debut over 7f at Gowran (just in front of third-placed Morehampton); too free early and never involved when disappointing over C&D earlier this month. |
12/1 |

13th 5 (7) |
18th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |

Well backed and found just one too good on handicap debut at Gowran 11 days ago; 3lb rise for that pleasing effort negated by rider's 5lb claim; could go one place better now. |

Beat Punica Granatum in a Gowran maiden last year and ran well in a soft-ground winners' race over C&D on next start; seemingly too high in the handicap this term, but never-nearer third at speed-favouring Gowran was a much better effort and showed he's now on a competitive mark; headgear returns. |

9st 1lb |
Two wins on AW; has been running quite consistently this season; however, she has managed only one success from 32 starts on turf, and has been a beaten favourite in two of her last three starts; hard to be confident. |

6th 12 (3) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Course winner off this mark last year over 7f; zero luck in running when a close sixth over 1m here on latest; yet to run over this far a trip but her dam was a 1m4f winner so decent prospects of staying the trip; big chance if she does. |

9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 4lb |
AW winner has yet to score on turf but plenty of good runs in defeat, notably at Leopardstown and Limerick over the summer; recent Gowran effort wasn't a bad one, showing plenty of speed (7f); drop in trip could suit. |

AW winner has yet to score on turf but plenty of good runs in defeat including when ahead of a couple of these in a Limerick rated race on penultimate; ground not ideal at Galway latest; place chance back on sounder surface. |

3yo shed the maiden tag at Fairyhouse (7f, good) in May off 3lb lower; struggled on soft at Leopardstown then didn't get home upped to 8.5f back at Fairyhouse on latest; drop back to 7f looks a big plus and preferred by Foley. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 160y |

Improved for switch to handicaps and good ground when second at Roscommon (7.5f) and went one better over 7f here next time; claimer negated his rise for the win at Limerick last time, but soft ground a possible excuse for his poor showing; chance back at this track on this ground. |

Six-time winner, most recently here at last year's festival over 7f; Roscommon third on penultimate start offered encouragement after a sequence of runs that saw her handicap mark reduced; however, she ran dismally at the same venue last week. |

3yo; definite potential in a couple of maidens including one here over 1m; didn't quite see out 1m at Naas on latest and now drops back to 7f for her handicap debut and could be on a workable mark; yard in fine form but Foley prefers stablemate. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |

Promise on debut at the Curragh last June (7f, good) and again on seasonal return at Gowran (1m, gd-yld); poor on yielding ground upped to 9.5f back there on latest but the drop back to 1m and return to better ground are causes for optimism here. |

6f Windsor novice winner for former yard; three turf runs for this yard have all been at that trip and yet to get closer than 4l to the winner; mark sliding but unproven on this surface, and others make more appeal. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |

Won a Windsor maiden (6f, good) for Eve Johnson-Houghton; never involved for this yard at the Curragh (6f, soft to heavy); better effort over C&D (good) in this headgear when not getting a clear run before running on for third; can do better again off 3lb lower. |
