26th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Several good runs in a busy campaign; 3lb out of the weights but a repeat of his close fourth in a premier handicap here in June wouldn't see him far away; reportedly pulled a front shoe when below par last time. |

Specialist at this distance, seven-time winner, the latest at Dundalk in May; has been kept busy since then; third at the Curragh on his most recent turf outing, a neck in front of the progressive Prairie Girl |

9st 4lb |
Promise over C&D in the spring; the visor has sharpened him and got the job done nicely here in August; now 8lb higher, but yard in form and has to enter calculations again. |

1st 12 (8) |
29th Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Is 0-7 but produced his best run yet when a 0.5l second of 12 in first-time visor (retained) at Sligo (6f, yielding) 24 days ago; nudged up 2lb but seems to act on most ground and rider takes off valuable 7lb; shortlisted. |

Career win number ten when successful over C&D last month (good), but hardly ideal being 9lb out of the weights in a race this competitive. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 180y |
9st 3lb |
Three of her four wins have come over 5f at the Curragh, including race for second successive year last month when making much of running; another good run off 6lb higher in similar contest 11 days ago when beaten under 2l: stiff 6f here probably not ideal. |

4th 1 (1) |
16th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
10st 2lb |
Three of her four wins have come over C&D, including for second successive year last month when making much of running in beating Harry's Hill 0.5l on good-to-firm (Happy Henry fifth) under today's rider; 6lb rise but has to be respected given her record here. |

9st 8lb |
Won four for Richard Hughes (three on turf) at 5.5f-7f; promising start for this yard at Navan in June but never figured when failing to beat a rival back at Navan on latest; needs to bounce back. |
12/1 |

11th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 180y |
10st 2lb |
Three wins last year, at 5.5f and 7f, final start on firm ground at Bath; encouraging yard debut here last month when close fourth over conventional 5f; slightly longer trip here should suit so considered off same mark. |

25th Sep 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Only victory came in a 7f nursery here in December; turf form of late is not too bad, finishing fourth in a big-field Curragh handicap and third to Cafu Zafeen at Fairyhouse on Monday; consistent sort with the assistance of arguably the best apprentice around; should be a contender. |

Won at Down Royal over this trip (sft) in June but not as good twice after on better ground; was a C&D runner-up last year; needs a return to her best. |

Several placings last year; off the mark on seasonal return over this trip on soft ground at Down Royal in first-time cheekpieces; got upset in the stalls in the Navan race dominated by several of these rivals. |

9st 12lb |
Pipped in this (later awarded race) on soft a year ago; comes here at the top of her game and got her head in front for the first time when winning decisively off 45 at Naas; ran perfectly well off this mark at Navan since. |
7/4 |

3rd 8 (17) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

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. |

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. |
