9st 9lb |
8yo has won this race for the past two years on soft and yielding ground; soundly beaten in both starts in handicaps this term, but connections have likely targeted this race and could make a bold bid. |

Five-time winner has yet to score in a handicap; won a 1m6f conditions race at Galway for the second year running last August; poor run over 1m6f on seasonal debut; stable appears to have two stronger contenders. |

11st 8lb |
145-rated staying hurdler; good form in valuable handicaps at Aintree and Haydock in the spring; claimer-ridden when winning a 1m6f maiden at Killarney 13 days ago; could make his presence felt in his first handicap. |

Very smart performer; acquitted himself extremely well when second in very valuable handicap hurdles at Aintree and Haydock in the spring; just outpointed by the smart Gaoth Chuil in a similar contest at Leopardstown last month for this rider; the one to beat. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 179y |
11st 10lb |
Showed good form in 2024 with a trio of wins from 1m2f-1m6f; runner-up in three of last four starts last term; fourth to Holy See on seasonal return at Gowran in April (1m4f, soft); another solid display when third over 2m at the Curragh. |

Showed good form in 2024 with a trio of wins from 1m2f-1m6f and runner-up in three of last four starts last term; plenty to take from seasonal return at Gowran in April when fourth to Holy See (1m4f, soft), rallying again late on; one to consider. |

31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 5lb |
3-3 on the AW but effective on turf and won easily on return from a 107 day break at Leopardstown in May (1m4f, good) off 8lb lower; had excuse when third of 13 (1.75l behind This Songisforyou) off revised mark at the Curragh latest (fly leapt from stalls); well-drawn here and in the mix once he behaves himself at the start. |
14/1 |

3rd 5 (11) |
28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |

Three-time AW winner added a second turf win in decisive fashion on return from 107 days off on first try over 1m4f (good) at Leopardstown last month; ridden by 7lb claimer that day so effectively 15lb higher here; will need a big career best to follow up, but unexposed at this distance and can't be discounted. |

9st 4lb |
In fine form this term; 1.25l runner-up on seasonal return over C&D (sft-hvy) in March; raised 4lb and won over 2m1f (good) at Killarney; good second off revised mark here on latest (1m6f, yielding); nudged up another 4lb and should run well again, but needs to find a bit more to win off this mark. |

2nd 12 (8) |

Bumper winner has done well since returning to the Flat, second here over 1m4f and handled better ground to win 2m1f Killarney amateur handicap last month under a positive ride; 4lb higher but could have more to offer off this low weight upped in grade. |

11st 7lb |
Two from two in bumpers; gained a second win on the Flat when readily taking a 1m6f Gowran handicap in April (soft); raised 8lb for that; needs to reverse recent Faryhouse form with Tounsivator; any further easing of the ground would help. |

Two bumper wins and was gaining a second win on the Flat when readily taking 1m6f Gowran handicap in April (soft); 8lb higher and quicker ground to contend with (has won on good). |

No win since 2023; big chance off this mark on best runs over 1m6f/1m4f last season and though well beaten in both runs this term, they were over an inadequate trip; this distance much more suitable and Colin Keane takes over; interesting. |

Three-time winner on the Flat, including over C&D last October, but all four wins have come on soft and heavy ground; excellent second in the Cork Derby (1m4f, soft) when last seen in May; just 1lb higher here but needs rain. |

9st 13lb |
Very useful hurdler has come good on the flat of late on decent ground, winning Leopardstown maiden and following up in 2m1f Killarney handicap when allowed to dictate matters; up 7lb for that but can still go well. |

11st 5lb |
Has hit top form recently; followed up an easy win in a weak Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m2f, good) with success in a Sligo novice contest (2m2f, good); his rating of 120 over hurdles is the best on offer here but he must transfer it to fences on this chasing bow. |

Flat maiden easily got off the mark over hurdles (15th attempt) in a weak Downpatrick maiden over this trip last month (good), having gone close on several occasions in stronger company; major player. |

9st 6lb |
Gained second turf win at Roscommon in May (10.5f, yielding) off 4lb lower; has come up short twice since off revised mark but ran well off 1lb higher at this meeting last year over 8.5f so not dismissed stepped up in trip in first-time blinkers. |

12st 2lb |
Capable dual-purpose performer won a nice pot on the Flat at Killarney last August off 4lb lower; stepped forward from below-par seasonal return when a 4.75l fifth at Fairyhouse on latest (3l behind Not Just Any Eagle); eased 2lb and place chance. |

5th 6 (3) |
8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 200y |
9st 4lb |
Capable under both codes, both Flat wins coming in 1m6f Killarney handicaps, last summer off 72 before good second at Newmarket (2m2f); Curragh comeback run in late May was poor but more expected of here. |
