Irish Stallion Farms EBF Red God Handicap (Premier Handicap)

Ended 2025 with a pair of 1m/1¼m wins and bettered that form when placed in large-field handicaps at Cork in April and the Curragh in May. Ran poorly in valuable event at York last time, though, and needs to bounce back. Makes all-weather debut.

Dual winner in 2025 who bounced back to form returned to soft ground when second of 9 in handicap at Down Royal in June but was below form on quicker ground last time. Return to this track will suit, having won over C&D as a 3-y-o, and yard back among the winners of late.

A 4-time Dundalk winner who has been merely ticking over on the turf this summer. Will be suited by the return to this venue but has a career-high mark to defy in this sphere.

Veteran who has been in decent heart of late, twice finishing runner-up, including when chasing home Fixation in handicap at Gowran last time.

Useful form for George Scott in 2025. Maintained his level of form this season, 5 lengths eighth of 18 to Thread Of Gold in handicap at Galway last time.

Still capable of useful form but remains winless in handicaps. Wears first-time cheekpieces on debut for new yard.

Won this race last year from 1 lb lower mark. Has produced some creditable efforts in defeat in some good staying races this season, finishing runner-up at Killarney before shaping as if still in good form when 6¼ lengths tenth of 18 to Thread Of Gold at Galway last time.

A 7-time winner, including 4 times at this course. Has yet to fire this season but has now dropped below last winning mark and hinted at a revival at Leopardstown last time. Makes plenty of appeal.

Resumed winning ways at this course in March and has finished in the frame 4 times since off higher marks, including when 5½ lengths second of 5 to Teologia at Down Royal on latest. Cheekpieces worn last time now removed.

Useful form when winning first 2 starts in 2024: Hasn't been at that level since but has shaped with a bit more encouragement of late, ridden more prominently when 2½ lengths third of 13 to Thatwilldoso at Roscommon last time. Visor replaces cheekpieces worn last time.

Took a step back in right direction when fourth of 11 in handicap won by Admiral Will Brown at Navan last month but disappointed in similar event at Ballinrobe last time

Dual C&D winner last year who has struggled on turf this summer but shaped a bit better when 2¾ lengths fourth of 6 to Loughrea at Leopardstown last time. Looks well treated now returned to a track and trip that will both suit.

Dual C&D winner who proved better than ever when winning 13-runner handicap at Galway in July by 1¾ lengths from Zaraahmando, suited by strong pace. Up 7 lb in a stronger race now, though.

Has progressed with each run to date. Won a 10-runner handicap at Roscommon in June by 2½ lengths from Vantage Code and then backed that up despite being sent for home too soon when 1½ lengths fourth of 15 to Madbadanddangerous at Galway last time. Races from 3 lb out of the handicap.
