11st 7lb |
Hit form over the summer, winning a Downpatrick maiden hurdle, Sligo novice before making a winning chase bow in a Tramore novice; took a backwards step when poor in a Flat handicap; 9l fifth in 2m5f hurdle at Downpatrick on Friday. |

Finally got head in front after 19 attempts when landing course maiden (2m2f) in July and has since followed it up with a novice hurdle and chase victory; tailed off on the Flat at Killarney on latest; first try at this trip but could go well. |

Finally got head in front after 19 attempts when landing Downpatrick maiden hurdle last month and has since followed it up with a novice hurdle and chase victory; needs to prove as effective on the Flat but didn't run badly in 1m3f maiden in April on ground softer than ideal; could be on a decent mark. |

Front-runner has not totally convinced with his jumping on his initial runs over fences despite finishing second last twice; can get away with it over these small fences and sure to give a good account from the front. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |

Dual-purpose sort; rated 112 over hurdles; was in the process of running a cracker when returning from 745 days off on his chasing debut at Wexford before falling at the last; pulled a long way clear with one other at Roscommon 13 days later when runner-up (2m1f, soft); this is another run relatively quickly but he looks like he has improved for fences. |

Dual-purpose sort; rated 112 over hurdles; was returning from a 745 day layoff at Wexford 13 days ago when making his chase debut and was in the process of running a cracker before falling at the last; sharper for that and can go well once this doesn't come too soon. |

11st 0lb |
Capable hurdler with a mark of 119 but finished a remote third on her switch to fences at Tramore (1m7f, good); the cheekpieces tried there are removed; bit to prove on the back of that effort. |

13th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |
11st 5lb |
Bagged back-to-back mares' handicap hurdles in January/March at Down Royal and Leopardstown at 2m1f/2m3f on soft ground; form has dipped in three runs since, including when beaten 18.5l at Galway last time (2m1f, good); cheekpieces return and the tongue tie is new; one of the top rated over hurdles for this chasing bow but needs to bring her best. |
8/1 |

Competitive form in 2024 and missed the following year; won two soft-ground handicaps for new yard earlier this year but she's fine on good and latest run at Bellewstown was after three months off; now visored. |

20th Sep 2026 Good 2m 1f 150y |

Dual winning hurdler but has been soundly beaten in three chase runs lately and lots more is needed from 5lb out of the handicap even with a capable claimer aboard. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
10st 6lb |
Two-time winning hurdler has finished well beaten in novice chases at Killarney (2m1f, gd-yld) and Tramore (15.5f, good); unproven over this far and forecast rain a concern, so probably best watched in first handicap chase. |
22/1 |

Won back-to-back handicaps at Cork (2m1f, good) and Tipperary (2m, good to yielding) in August/October; hasn't hit same heights since; unplaced in points and switch to chasing didn't bring improvement at Killarney last time when beaten 28l. |

Never looked at ease at Tramore last time but much better judged on his victory in a competitive 2m2f handicap chase here at the festival; likely to fare much better, although the trip is a small question |

13th Aug 2026 Good 1m 7f 120y |
11st 9lb |
Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences for the first time at the eighth attempt at the Galway festival (2m2f, good); 4lb penalty for that could prove pivotal and his overall form doesn't suggest that a follow-up is guaranteed; trainer won this race last year though. |

Two wins over hurdles for Gavin Cromwell; 0-7 over fences and has a tendency to jump left at times; ground conditions will suit but soundly beaten over hurdles on latest and others make more appeal. |

Flat winner is 1-11 over hurdles, having been successful in a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March (2m, soft to heavy); good runner-up finish to the smart Switch From Diesel in a Punchestown novice hurdle in June was his best run since (2m1f, good); makes chasing debut now and his hurdles rating of 115 gives him a shout but his recent runs have been a bit below his best. |

Leopardstown maiden hurdle winner (2m, soft) in March and runner-up to the smart Switch From Diesel in a Punchestown novice, his best run since; 2m6f may have stretched him last time, back in trip now. |

14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 5f 185y |

Leopardstown maiden hurdle winner (2m, soft) in March and runner-up to the smart Switch From Diesel in a novice two runs back; only seventh in a handicap since then but was beaten far; every chance on these terms. |
