6th Aug 2026 Good 2m 1f 193y |
11st 2lb |
Was in better form last year when winning at Limerick over hurdles and on the Flat; struggled over hurdles subsequently and this will be his first run over flights since October; regressive on the level this year, although fair effort last time at Killarney. |

Has done plenty of racing since a Limerick win last summer; generally modest form this season, with the exception of a Navan third; others look more likely. |

2lb lower than for last summer's win at Cork (1m4f) and wasn't far away 23 days ago at Killarney (second run in tongue-tie); thereabouts. |

Winner over this trip on good ground at Cork last summer for Joe Murphy; tongue-tied on recent yard debut when staying on late into fourth (third has won since) at Tramore, having not handled track; potential improver. |

Dual AW winner is 0-6 hurdling, never counting in 2m4f Sligo handicap last month; 3lb lower but big improvement needed. |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 4f 116y |

Dual AW winner was fourth behind an easy winner on his second handicap hurdle start at Wexford in May (2m1f, good to yielding); never better than midfield on the Flat at Down Royal later that month. |

11st 10lb |
Versatile mare scored on the Flat at Tramore (2m, good) on her latest outing; her sole win from five chase starts came in in this race last year (good) off 107; 5lb higher here but arrives in form and can't be discounted. |
11/2 |

Three-time hurdles winner (also chase winner); 0-22 on Flat; fair placed form last season, though beaten 11l when third in this race 12 months ago; needs to step up on this term's outings at Gowran and Limerick. |

5th Aug 2026 Good 1m 5f 56y |
9st 6lb |
Winner over this trip last year; has mixed Flat racing with hurdling this year; decent fifth, less than 2l off Deluca Chop, at Navan in June and good run over hurdles a week later; not as effective lately; ground-versatile. |
16/1 |

12th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 90y |

Best hurdle run came when third at Downpatrick last time in this sphere, but was poor on the Flat since, so has to put that effort behind him. |

9st 6lb |
Added his second course win in December when making virtually all over 1m4f and made light work of a 6lb rise when comfortably scoring over C&D last time, with Black Gem 3l behind; hit with a 7lb hike, but he may not be finished improving. |

Dual course winner at 1m4f, including on latest when making virtually all to score under this rider, with Power Of Prayer back in fifth; first crack at 2m so has stamina to prove. |

23rd Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Fourth in this last year before winning handicaps at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) and Down Royal (3m, good to firm); pulled up on seasonal return at Clonmel in June (2m7f, good) but much more promising was her 8l third of 18 at Limerick last time (2m7f, good), despite making a bad mistake; interesting. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 3 |
2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 120y |

Won handicaps at Downpatrick (2m6f) and Down Royal (3m) last August; not as good at Listowel in September; pulled up on return at Clonmel (2m7f, good); needs to come back to her best. |

15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 103y |
9st 1lb |
Low-grade maiden has posted solid runs in three starts this year, most recently chasing home a 10l winner over this trip at Tramore eight days ago (third has won since, Vervain fourth); should be in the mix and good draw. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 7 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Promising fourth on his stable debut/seasonal return at Dundalk over 1m4f; met some trouble in running when sixth at Fairyhouse; fair chance of turning the tables on Chopsticks (fourth) and of upholding form with Magna Gee Gee (sixth). |

7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Maiden gelding by Frankel; started his career with the Gosdens; has shown potential for a belated breakthrough in his two most recent races; recovered from interference at the start to finish fourth over this trip at Down Royal in May; leading contender based on his second to solid yardstick Jurality over 1m5f at Navan; same good 7lb claimer aboard now. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 14 (15) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 5f 0y |

Maiden produced one of his better efforts on latest when not far behind a couple of these rivals at Down Royal (2m, good); place shout if he backs that up, but overall profile suggests that's not guaranteed. |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |
10st 11lb |
Dual Flat winner is 0-27 over hurdles; pulled up when last seen in this sphere at Sligo in May (found to be lame post-race); positive efforts on the Flat since, second at Tramore over 2m last time; strike-rate is off-putting but he has a place chance if bringing his best back over obstacles. |
10/1 |

2nd 12 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |

Placed over 1m4f on fast ground for David Marnane in 2024; moderate hurdles form and two recent flat efforts have been poor; others hold stronger claims. |

13th 14 (8) |
15th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 103y |

Best effort when second over 1m4f on fast ground for David Marnane in 2024; moderate hurdles form and faded tamely in straight (hung left) on Flat return at Leopardstown last month; hard to fancy. |
