Five hurdle wins to her credit, including this race last year; not seen since running respectably behind Duke Silver at Leopardstown in December; 10lb higher than last year with an eight month absence to overcome. |

Course winner has been in good form lately, winning a Killarney handicap over this trip and finishing third at Listowel over 2m4f; however, she has a bit to find with some of these but not ruled out. |

Five-time winner but quite lightly raced in recent times over hurdles and fences; mid-division over C&D in July and his forays over this sort of trip have not convinced; others preferred. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 180y |

Capable handicap hurdler back in the day (won here in 2022 over 2m4f); series of absences in recent years, most recently good run in the circumstances when hampered by loose horse in finishing fourth in 2m4f Ballinrobe handicap chase in May; first run over hurdles in three years (11lb lower here). |

11st 5lb |
Useful five-time winner for Peter Fahey; changed hands for E25,000 in November but unseated at the first on stable debut at Galway eight days ago; tongue-tie and cheekpieces left off now; enjoys nice ground and definite claims. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |
10st 9lb |
Signed off for Peter Fahey with an emphatic win over hurdles at Punchestown (16.5f, gd-yld) in October; bought for E25,000 in November and this course winner is worth a market check on debut for shrewd yard with a tongue tie and cheekpieces applied. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 26y |
11st 3lb |
Bumper and maiden hurdle winner before regressing for Gordon Elliott, and new yard hasn't arrested that decline; after a break, never involved over this trip at Galway and well held over longer trips last twice. |
20/1 |

8th 10 |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 80y |

Bumper and maiden hurdle winner for Gordon Elliott; two runs for his current stable and probably failed to see out the 3m2f at Ballinrobe last time; others preferred. |

10st 8lb |
Point-to-point winner; 0-6 hurdling in Britain for Ben Brookhouse, yard debut (after long absence) in 2m6f Downpatrick handicap last month was encouraging enough and worth another shot at this trip, especially on better ground. |
10/1 |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 208y |
11st 6lb |
Came good in emphatic style when running out an 8l winner over C&D in July; raised 11lb, again won emphatically at Roscommon (3m, yielding to soft) under a cool Philip Enright ride; 7lb claimer offsets some of the further 11lb rise; entitled to go well again against her own sex. |
3/1 |
|
1st 13 |
4th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 210y |
11st 3lb |
Fair placed form in points last season, though not progressive; hinted at winning potential with a staying-on sixth behind today's rival Sallap at Limerick early last month; came good in emphatic style when running out an 8l winner from Smackwater Jack (second reserve) at Ballinrobe two weeks ago; raised 11lb, may remain competitive. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 200y |
11st 10lb |
Second over extended 2m4f last year; made all to beat 116-rated rival in 2m3f maiden here last month, and talented claimer negates good chunk of 8lb rise; trip an unknown, but some stamina on dam's side of pedigree. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |

Chased home a clear winner in 2m5f Roscommon maiden a year ago and best effort since in similar contest early this month, tracking leaders and every chance when falling two out; definite player. |

Listowel maiden hurdle for Willie Mullins; much better effort at Galway last time on his second run for the stable; more needed again but not impossible to see him involved. |

2nd Aug 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 60y |

Maiden hurdle winner for Willie Mullins ran well in some handicaps; pulled up on yard debut after some 14 months' absence at Sligo recently; probably best watched for now. |

10th Jul 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Beat a useful type when winning a bumper and early hurdling efforts were promising; on third start after a year off, back to form when second (winner ran well off 115 since) over 2m4f at Listowel where he looked likely to drop away but plugged on; tongue-tie added. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 8 |
30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Bumper winner on good to yielding; 0-5 over hurdles and rated 113; leading claims on the form of his maiden hurdle runs at Naas and Navan last year but bitterly disappointing in both starts in handicaps in 2026; huge chance if he can rediscover best but comes with risks attached. |

10st 11lb |
Left modest form behind upped to 2m4f at Wexford (good to yielding) for second handicap, still in contention when unseating at the final flight; backed into favouritism on that occasion (85-40, previous shortest price was 25-1); well bred and could be the answer. |

10th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 0y |
10st 9lb |
Modest form in maidens and his fourth on handicap debut at Clonmel (2m, heavy) was a remote one; pedigree suggests this longer trip will suit and it's still early days for this well bred gelding; dropped 1lb and not discounted. |

4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 200y |

Mixes hurdling and chasing; has won three races but inconsistent and hard to predict; second over extended 2m6f at Limerick in July, but not matched that since. |
