Enjoyed a productive winter at this course in 2024/25, making it 3 wins from 4 starts when landing 11-runner claimer (6f, 7/2) 11 months ago. Off since ahead of first run since leaving P. J. F. Murphy.
|
Doubled her tally at Galway in September. After 4 months off, probably needed the run when eighth of 9 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 2 weeks ago, so she could fare better back down in grade.
|
Three-time winner last year, with latest success at this C&D in November. Not seen to best effect when sixth of 9 in handicap (9/1) here 2 weeks ago, not ideally placed, and she's now back down to last winning mark.
|
Thirteen runs since last win in 2023 and has offered little at this C&D in 2 starts this year, last of 9 in handicap (33/1) on latest outing 2 weeks ago. Has enough to prove at present.
|
Left previous efforts behind making handicap debut when winning 14-runner contest (40/1) at this C&D 23 days ago, readily. This is tougher up in grade, but she could still have more to offer.
|
Much improved when ending last year with back-to-back victories at this C&D. Ran at least as well upped in grade when fourth of 14 in handicap here (8f, 6/1) 38 days ago, so he enters calculations.
|
Only win at this course (6f) a year ago. Not seen to best effect when eighth of 14 in handicap (9/1) over C&D 5 weeks ago, not ideally placed, and his mark has eased further as a result.
|
Won big-field handicap at the Curragh in May last year but ended the campaign out of form, losing all chance at the start when last of 12 at this course (8f, 16/1) in November. Hard to catch right.
|
Fifteen runs since his sole success back in 2024. Making first start since leaving Tim Easterby, finished well held when thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 50/1) 3 weeks ago. Others preferred.
|
Eleven runs since last win in 2024 and, in first-time tongue strap, was unable to capitalise on drop in grade when third of 12 in claimer (9/2) at this C&D 3 weeks ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark, though.
|
Four-time C&D winner and scored over 8f here in November. Lesser effort when fifth of 12 in claimer (15/2) at this C&D 3 weeks ago, but no surprise to see him bounce back with blinkers reapplied.
|
Fair form for Charlie Appleby last summer but little impact in 3 starts for current yard, eighth of 13 in maiden at this course (5f, 40/1) 23 days ago. Back up in trip with cheekpieces reapplied.
|
Successful twice over 10.7f here last year when trained by Charles Byrnes. Remained in good heart for Denis Hogan, in first-time blinkers when second of 12 in claimer (7/2) at this C&D 3 weeks ago, and he's a major player on stable debut.
|
Improved when fourth of 13 in maiden at this C&D in December, but failed to build on that effort when third of 14 back here (15/2) 28 days ago. Could yet do better as he goes handicapping.

Ohailbhic (5/2), Porsche Lad (9/2), Royal Impact (6/1), Lahore Da King (6/1), Mehmar (13/2), Oiche Rua (7/1), Rockbury Lad (7/1), Thaloria (15/2), Notforalongtime (20/1), Amemri (25/1), Fly To Glory (28/1), Ransom (33/1), Zabriskie Point (40/1), Lady Arwen (50/1), Electric Beauty (66/1), Heart Of Eternity (66/1), Hosanna Power (100/1)
PORSCHE LAD has developed a good record at this venue, coping well with the drop back in trip when runner-up over C&D last time, and he could be up to making a winning start for his new yard. Heading the list of dangers is Lahore Da King, who has shown improved form at this course of late, ahead of Notforalongtime.
