6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Four-time AW winner; sole success on turf came in 2021; ran on well over 7f at Naas latest, beaten just 2l; step up in trip a plus on that evidence and runs off the same mark; place chance. |
11/1 |

1-25 on turf; two solid thirds over 1m on AW earlier this year, but below that form on turf last twice; needs more down in trip. |

10th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 3f 210y |
10st 2lb |
Filly with a good German pedigree; ran her best race so far when sixth in a 20-runner handicap over 1m5f at Navan in April, beaten only 3l and would have been closer with a clear run; several others have a stronger chance in theory, but perhaps unwise to rule out. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 12lb |
Seven-time winner; hold up sort has run respectably in three of his last four starts; stayed on well for fourth behind Lady Arwen at Ballinrobe latest; placed at this meeting over 7f in 2022; ground versatile and could go well granted luck in running. |

4th 1 (5) |
20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 135y |
10st 0lb |
Seven career wins and probably not as dependent on soft ground as he once was; consistent this season without really threatening to win and likely to run his race again. |

9st 11lb |
Four-time winner; scored on seasonal return at Cork off 8lb lower; chased home Bay Of Dreams off 2lb lower at Bellewstown on penultimate; never landed a blow behind Lady Arwen at Ballinrobe on latest; visor replaces cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

9th 2 (13) |
20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 135y |
9st 13lb |
Started the season with victory in a 1m handicap at Cork and has kept his form well since without winning; close second over that trip at Bellewstown last time saw him go up another 2lb; new headgear combination tried here and unlikely to be far away; draw is the main negative |

9st 10lb |
C&D winner for Joseph O'Brien; no impact over hurdles for this yard; modest effort in 1m4f handicap at Tramore on return from 98 days off latest; cheekpieces go on and drops into claiming company for yard with good record in these races. |
7/2 |

5th 1 (2) |
7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Two wins on the Flat (both 9.5f) last season for Joseph O'Brien; heavy defeats all four starts over timber since joining this stable; remains 7lb above last success and stamina to prove for this trip. |

9st 8lb |
One of three for yard; shed the maiden tag in a 9.5f handicap here (good) off 59 on his penultimate start; soundly beaten off revised mark at Galway, though trip/ground not ideal there; drawn wide and trip may be on sharp side. |

Two wins for Richard Hannon, both over 1m2f on easy ground; modest form so far over hurdles and on the Flat for this yard; soundly beaten in Ballinrobe claimer on latest; however, she met trouble in running and is probably capable of better. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time Flat winner, going up 11lb for a convincing success in a 1m4f handicap at Tramore last month; may have gone as far as he can on the Flat off his new mark and a good time to go back hurdling; claims on his third in a Punchestown maiden hurdle in June; one of two runners for the stable. |

29th Jul 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
9st 7lb |
Was gaining a third career win when scoring over 1m4f at Tramore early this month, winning convincingly under a hold-up ride; hit with 11lb hike takes him to a career-high but in-form claimer takes off 7lb. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Solid strike rate on AW (4-10) but just 1-17 on turf; that win came at Fairyhouse (1m2f, good) in May off 5lb lower; has struggled off revised mark in three runs since and handicapper slow to relent. |
28/1 |

Decent strike rate on the AW (4-10) but just 1-16 on turf; that win came over 1m2f (good) at Fairyhouse in May; struggled off revised mark twice since and wide draw to overcome here. |

12th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 100y |
10st 2lb |
Ran respectably in a couple of handicaps earlier this season; several less encouraging displays before winning a claimer at Ballinrobe last month; big weight here on stable debut, Sam Coen's 5lb claim will help. |
8/1 |

1st 8 (6) |
20th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 135y |

0-12 on turf on the Flat; ran respectably in a couple of handicaps earlier this season, but last three runs haven't been great; could do better now dropped into claiming company, but needs to leave behind recent form. |
