Never worse than second in four starts for Paddy Twomey; Colin Keane booked for his first appearance for Joseph O'Brien; possibly best of a stable quartet. |

Lightly-raced 5yo won ordinary 1m4f maiden on last summer's debut before good second in 1m6f contest at Galway festival; 6-5 fav, visor went on for Killarney return earlier this month, couldn't get by similarly-rated rival who dictated a steady pace over 1m6f. |

Ex-Dermot Weld; came from the rear to make a winning start for this yard at this venue (1m2f, good) in May; always close up but had to be switched when neck second to War Rooms at Ballinrobe (1m5f) ten weeks later, looking capable of better still; missed a York engagement when the ground turned softish. |

All four wins, three on Flat and one over hurdles, came on soft; runner-up on last two starts in Cork Derby and when splitting a Willie Mullins-trained pair at Galway; not certain to uphold Galway form with Night Moon. |

First reserve; knows how to win and ran well over 1m4f at Galway before a midfield finish back at 1m; chance if getting a run. |

5-27 on turf; now just 1lb higher than when winning at Leopardstown last October (1m2f, heavy); best run of the season when fourth of 16 over 1m4f at Galway last month; trip-versatile, but probably best at around 1m2f. |

Dead-heated for third in this race last year; struggled in top company as a novice hurdler after a maiden win at Punchestown in February; needs to improve on what he has shown on the Flat this term. |

Fulfilled initial promise when comfortably justifying favouritism in a 1m2f maiden at Navan (good) and he looks a good bet to improve for going further now sent into a handicap; dangerously unexposed. |

26th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Has the form to win a maiden but he's had some chances now (0-9) and was entitled to run better than he did at Gowran two months ago; his previous second there was a career best on RPRs, though was flattered by his close proximity to a classy winner. |
7/1 |

6th 3 (4) |
25th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 110y |
9st 9lb |
Eight-race maiden has finished second in five of his races, including his last four; good effort in a four-runner C&D race on just his second turf run last time when 1.5l behind Trustyourinstinct, who has since won a Group 2; would receive 8lb from Summer Is Tomorrow in a handicap, so has work to do but he's consistent. |

11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 197y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Made up plenty of ground to lead close home at Galway festival (1m4f, yielding; same race she won the year before) on penultimate start but was herself pipped by a fast finisher; won starts either side, latest by a head off the same mark at Sligo (10.5f) four days later; this is a very different track but she has to be considered with her mark virtually unchanged. |

1st 5 (1) |
5th Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 100y |
8st 10lb |
Won narrowly at Roscommon in June and went very close to repeating last year's success in a 1m4f Galway handicap; due to go up 3lb for finishing a neck second; holds an obvious chance, providing this does not come too soon; last year's second in this event came after the same four-day interval. |

10st 4lb |
Won for the eighth time on turf when taking a 1m5f Ayr handicap last time and is also a C&D winner; raised 5lb for that but has won off a higher mark in the past and handles soft ground; player. |

18th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 26y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Won two in a row in July (1m2f/11.4f) and she's run pretty well in big fields on her last two starts, most recently fourth of 18 at Cork (1m4f); every chance that this extra furlong will be within range and she's won on ground from good through to heavy; this Irish raider could be in the mix. |

In new blinkers when staying on best at Galway (1m4f, yielding) and stamina appeared stretched by 1m6f when swamped late on at Killarney; tactically versatile and Reese Holohan's claim is well worth having. |

Did well to gain third win when powering home to get up by a neck at Galway (1m4f, yielding) 20 days ago; up 5lb but this trip could suit on that evidence. |

Useful Flat maiden (rated 77) and placed in all four maiden hurdles at 2m, most recently over C&D last month, mistake two out not helping his cause when beaten over 4l into third; has his chance again but is proving a bit frustrating. |

Sole win over hurdles came at Tramore in 2024, best of five runs on the Flat came when second at same venue in 1m4f maiden in July, didn't count over 2m there latest; others look more likely on handicap debut. |
