10st 2lb |
Worked his way up the placings from third at Bellewstown to second at Down Royal before winning here last time, all over 5f on good; had a few of these behind him when winning; up 7lb but Paddy Harnett is entitled to use his 3lb claim this time, so that helps; in the mix. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Improving in handicaps, keeping on to take third at Bellewstown before being beaten 0.75l by Viamonte at Down Royal 17 days ago; had some of his main rivals behind him that day, so should be in the mix off 2lb higher. |

10st 1lb |
Returned to form over the summer, runner-up at Fairyhouse and Limerick before breakthrough C&D win in late July, always up with the pace and battling on well; 4lb rise okay, not sure this softer ground will be in her favour. |

24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
19-race maiden but is starting to find some consistency having finished runner-up the last twice at Fairyhouse (6f, gd) and Limerick (7f, gd); looked a winner in waiting last time 13 days ago beaten 0.75l by Rappell, pulling clear of Whatswrongnow and I'm Spartacus behind; should go close off 5lb higher back in trip. |

9st 12lb |
One of two for red-hot yard; bolted up off basement mark at Naas (5f, good) 13 days ago but handicapper took a dim view and hit her with a 10lb rise; softer ground fine and could be more to come from this 4yo so can't discount. |

1st 16 (18) |
23rd Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Won a Bellewstown handicap in October (5f, soft) off 2lb higher; running well in defeat this season, not least when runner-up behind her reopposing stablemate Dandy Land over C&D last time (good); 1.25l to find with that rival but better off at the weights; suited by softer. |

8st 11lb |
Maiden has twice gone close in AW handicaps; went well from the front at Naas in April, but ran a couple of stinkers here in early summer; back from a break when behind Irish Rumour at Navan, had no chance from his track position; third runner for Ado. |
33/1 |

Maiden has placed twice on the AW but yet to trouble the judge in nine starts on turf; ran okay at Naas in April but gone wrong way since; hard to fancy in current form. |

Decent maiden runs over 7f at Dundalk last year but has been below that level twice this term and has to return to form for new yard after a break. |

Handicap debutante; weakened late in all three maidens at 7f-1m; opening mark doesn't look overly generous; watch unless money comes. |

9st 8lb |
Ran her best race when staying-on sixth in a C&D fillies' maiden last year; poor since but some positives in her 5.5l seventh of 12 at Cork (5f, good) last time; down 3lb but others preferred. |

Hasn't been beaten that far on his last three starts, including when a 3l sixth of 21 over C&D three runs back; is now 8lb lower and ran well in a better race than this at the Curragh 20 days ago; enters calculations. |

Got off the mark at Tipperary a year ago over this trip; hasn't added to that, short of room when last seen at Naas in late June; handicapper giving him every chance (1lb wrong). |
