Hard to knock this season and only went up 3lb for his narrow defeat of Morehampton at Roscommon (extended 7f, yielding); he was fair value for that winning margin. |

Second runner for Ado McGuinness has had a good season; winner over 7f at Leopardstown in June and has run well off revised mark since, when fourth to stablemate Eddie G at Galway and on ground faster than ideal over 1m at the Curragh. |

Strong in the finish when third over 7f at Gowran and looked sure to win at Roscommon (extended 7f) only to be reeled in late on by Goal Exceeded; should be fine over this far and firmly enters the reckoning. |

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. |

Far better known for finishing second or third than winning; runner-up in a handicap here in May and a close third at Roscommon last month; can be thereabouts again; fourth in this race last year. |

3rd 12 (5) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |

Plenty of ability but very hard to win with; sole Irish success came at the Curragh in April 2024; later that year, twice second to Merisi Diamond over C&D; again ran well here on seasonal debut and when second at Listowel later in May; possibly needed the run here last time. |

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. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |

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. |

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. |

Five-time winner was busy early in the season, winning over this trip at the Curragh; stayed on late at Roscommon last time and should have improved from that; good draw and should go close. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 2lb |
Soft or heavy ground is crucial for him, and wisely was given the summer off after winning at the Curragh in April; twice beat Mercurial over C&D in 2024, including in this race; chance is dependent on how much rain falls. |
9/1 |

1st 12 (10) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |

Four-time winner whose best form has on soft and heavy at around 7f; got those optimum conditions over C&D last time when third, finishing 1.75l behind Mickey The Steel and 6.5l behind Red Charlie; cheekpieces added to the tongue tie now, but may struggle to reverse form. |

Eight-race maiden but has caught the eye on occasions and the stewards asked questions after latest run at Roscommon (tried cheekpieces); there's a strong suspicion that her turn will come. |

6th 9 (1) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |

Made many an 'eyecatcher' list when flying home in valuable 1m fillies' handicap at the Curragh in May; never involved over 1m1f back there next time; unseated early at Galway; failed to take advantage of good opportunity when beaten at a short price in AW maiden last time; headgear. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y |

Good 2yo maiden form at this trip and just denied on seasonal return in valuable Curragh fillies handicap over 1m in May; clipped heels when unseating at Galway latest but on overall form has leading claims here; good draw too. |

9st 10lb |
One of his two wins as a juvenile last year came over 6f at this venue; bits and pieces of form this season and now 12lb lower than at the start of the season; needs to defy the worst of the draw but has been given a chance. |
8/1 |

7th 7 (9) |
31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 6lb |
Has run some good races in handicaps this term, notably his fifth of 20 in the Scurry Handicap at the Curragh, but nonetheless hasn't lived up to market expectations on several occasions; discarding the headgear backfired when he was never travelling over 6f at the Curragh last time; now blinkered and steps up in trip. |
8/1 |

7th 7 (12) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |

A little bit hard to figure him out but, to be charitable, probably still learning his trade; unlucky fourth to Chicago Pope early in the season; staying-on fifth of 20 in the Scurry here was a good effort; ridden 2f out and just stuck on one-paced when third at Naas latest; visored last twice, now goes unaided. |

Two wins last year on soft/heavy included this race off today's mark; back to form latest two outings last month on better ground, just failing to get up at Cork and again finished well, having had to wait for an opening, when second at Listowel; seemingly in good shape for repeat win. |

Won handicaps over 7f and 1m on soft ground last year; inconsistent this season, but gave it a good go last time at Cork when just missing out (1m, good); he's 3lb higher now and they claimed 5lb last time, so has more on his plate. |

Mainly kept to AW at 2, winning Wolverhampton maiden on debut and went close in a Dundalk nursery; gelded following comeback run in July and much improved third at Leopardstown last month under a positive ride (7f, good-to-yielding); unchanged mark and can go well if handling the conditions; unplaced at Roscommon on Tuesday (5.55). |

Expensive breeze-up purchase won AW maiden and second in AW nursery; improved from seasonal debut when third over 7f at Leopardstown, only beaten a length having led from halfway; up in grade here, so needs to find more, and unproven on easy ground if rain comes. |

Breeze-up purchase cost £205,000; justified favouritism on debut at Wolverhampton (6f); failed to build on that in two subsequent outings in Britain; runner-up on the second of two Dundalk nursery outings; may improve from his turf/seasonal debut at Naas last month; second reserve. |
