30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 63y |
10st 1lb |
Too high in the ratings since a Gowran maiden win last autumn; however, he ran well over 1m4f here on latest, form boosted when runner-up Obscenity continued a good spell of form with a Gowran success. |
4/1 |

3rd 1 (10) |
18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |
10st 1lb |
Was hit hard by the handicapper for easily winning a restricted 9.5f maiden at Gowran on heavy in September; good run when fourth over 1m2f at Leopardstown last month and seemed to stay well enough when third over 1m5f at Ballinrobe, getting going a bit late; longer straight here will suit and any rain a plus. |

16th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 1f 168y |
10st 0lb |
Much improved this year, recording wins at Navan (1m2f), Ballinrobe (1m5f) and Limerick (1m4f); fair third at Killarney in July before finding the company too demanding in a Galway premier handicap; needs to bounce back from a moderate Leopardstown run; down in trip now; good 7lb claimer. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Much improved this year, recording wins at Navan, Ballinrobe and over just shy of this trip at Limerick in June; held off career-high marks last twice, trip possibly too far at Killarney and in Galway premier handicap; drops back in grade so respected, but this ground may be on the quick side. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 20y |
9st 8lb |
Ran twice at two; always prominent on debut over 7f at the Curragh; despite running green, maintained his effort to finish second to Thread Of Gold who has won two premier handicaps this season; third-placed Take Charge Star has developed into a smart performer; failed to build on that when fading late over 1m at Punchestown; gelded now, remains of interest. |

Always prominent on debut over 7f at the Curragh; despite running green, he maintained his effort to finish second in a race dominated by outsiders; third-placed Take Charge Star stepped up from his luckless run to win easily at Gowran. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 0f 30y |
9st 9lb |
Claimed after Naas success last September; pleasing yard debut when second in Leopardstown nursery; seemingly ridden to stay 1m2f trip on return at Roscommon in late June, staying on into fourth; did not get the best of runs when well supported at Galway; tongue-tie on now, leading chance. |

2nd Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 73y |

Claimed after Naas success last September and fine yard debut effort following month when second in Leopardstown nursery; seemingly ridden to stay 1m2f trip on seasonal return at Roscommon in late June, staying on into fourth under today's rider; back in trip here but softer ground will suit and can go well. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 153y |
11st 4lb |
Eight-time Flat winner (all turf wins on soft or worse); small signs of promise five hurdle runs; took third in a Musselburgh maiden hurdle in November (2m, good to soft) but last of 16 on handicap debut at Naas (2m, soft to heavy) when last seen in this sphere; recent Flat runs have been middling. |

Six-time winner on turf (including a premier handicap here over 1m in November off 10lb lower); sixth in Irish Lincoln on return when 1lb wrong; race possibly came too soon when below that level over same C&D six days ago. |

His win in last year's renewal on soft ground was his third C&D success; placed in his previous four starts before a rare below-par effort here last time; getting on in years, but could easily bounce back. |
10/1 |

7th 3 (3) |
18th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |

C&D winner; knocking on the door in recent starts; beaten 2.5l when third at Galway on latest; runner up over C&D in May off 2lb lower; frame claims again, especially if it rains. |

9yo a winner of seven races; won twice last season at the Listowel Festival on heavy ground and has shaped encouragingly on last two starts at Limerick and Galway; rain would boost claims. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Has recorded three of his seven wins at Listowel and also twice successful over C&D; out of form before signs of a revival at Limerick last month; still looks risky. |

8th Sep 2026 Soft 1m 0f 98y |

The ground was good to yielding when winning over Galway's extended 1m in July; could have run better at Dundalk as she has form there, but wouldn't put a line through her. |
12/1 |

9th 13 (2) |
15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |

Boasts C&D form figures of 211; roared back to form with a win over 8.5f (yld-sft) at the Galway festival on latest; 7lb rise makes things tougher and this is harder but has to be respected given her fine record at this venue. |

Heavy-ground winner at Gowran (1m1f) a year ago so rain would be welcomed and it was a solid enough run over 1m2f at the Curragh most recently; versatile trip-wise and considered. |

Won a Bellewstown maiden last year (1m, good); okay return in the Madrid at Naas (7f, soft) in March; not as good upped to 1m1f on latest at Leopardstown (soft); drops back in trip now and visor goes on; could rebound on this sounder surface. |

Maiden in ten runs but has threatened to break it the last two times when runner-up at Gowran Park (9.5f, soft) and Limerick (1m4f, yielding); unlucky last time having hit the front and nailed on the line; up another 3lb but ground will suit and can go close again. |
