Runners
| Pos | No. | Dr | Horse | Jockey | Trainer | Age | Wgt | Best decimal odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13th | 1 | 9 |
Nancy J (F)
Yet to add to 2-y-o debut success and probably worth taking on back from an 8-month absence on debut for new connections.
|
Ben Coen | J P Murtagh | 4 | 63.5 kg |
26
25/1
|
| 14th | 2 | 5 |
Sarahmae (F)
Won 3 times last year, including over 5f at this course last summer, but suffered a heavy defeat on recent C&D reappearance and she may need more time before coming to the boil.
|
J M Sheridan | D Hogan | 4 | 62.1 kg |
34
33/1
|
| 3rd | 3 | 16 |
Varshini (F)
[P1]
Winner of a 7f Gowran maiden on reappearance last spring but she's found things tougher since and hopes here pinned on first-time cheekpieces helping to eke out a bit more.
|
Seamie Heffernan | J A Stack | 4 | 62.1 kg |

12/1
|
| 1st | 4 | 8 |
Staysound Susie (M)
FAV
Resumed winning ways when landing a heavy-ground 5f handicap here in November. Stepped up on reappearance effort when third of 14 (again over 5f here) recently and she's high on the shortlist.
|
Jimmy Dalton | A Slattery | 5 | 61.2 kg |
3.75
11/4
|
| 16th | 5 | 15 |
Gloriously Glam (F)
[P]
Bagged a Gowran claimer and handicap at Navan last year. However, she ended that campaign on a low-key note and is entitled to come on for the run.
|
Ronan Whelan | A McGuinness | 4 | 60.8 kg |
34
33/1
|
| 6th | 6 | 2 |
Likedbymike (F)
Cork maiden winner at 2 yrs and twice went close in sprint handicaps off similar marks during the autumn. Ended 2025 with a couple of not-so-good efforts but will be a threat if on-song.
|
Colin Keane | M J Byrne | 4 | 59.4 kg |
8
7/1
|
| 8th | 7 | 13 |
Rion Rubette (F)
Successful at Limerick last summer but rather hit-and-miss thereafter and she's probably worth taking on back from a break here.
|
Paddy Harnett | M Butler | 4 | 59.4 kg |
29
28/1
|
| 7th | 8 | 6 |
Josh's Joy (F)
Placed first 3 starts in 2-y-o maiden before winning one at Naas (6f) when last seen in October. Mark for this handicap debut looks fair and she's one to consider.
|
Gavin Ryan | Donnacha O'Brien | 3 | 57.2 kg |
4.33
10/3
|
| 2nd | 9 | 1 |
Glory To Be (F)
[P]
Landed a 9-runner maiden at Navan (5f) in October, suited by way race developed. Failed to land a blow on subsequent handicap bow here on final start of 2025, though, and she's probably worth taking on.
|
Wayne Lordan | M C Grassick | 4 | 55.8 kg |
17
16/1
|
| 10th | 10 | 11 |
Asdana (F)
[V]
Winner at Cork last summer and, though below par next 2 starts, she wound up 2025 campaign by finishing 1¼ lengths second to Staysound Susie over 5f here in November. Merits respect.
|
Declan McDonogh | W McCreery | 4 | 55.3 kg |
19
18/1
|
| 12th | 11 | 4 |
Aurora Nova (M)
This mark is a workable one but record at this course stands at 0-6 having finished down the field in a 16-runner handicap here on her final start of last season.
|
Wesley Joyce | A McNamara | 7 | 54.9 kg |
34
33/1
|
| 5th | 12 | 3 |
Oh Cecelia (F)
[H]
Ended time for Jack Davison in fairly tame fashion during the winter but firmly back on track for new yard when landing a big-field Naas handicap (5f) 12 days ago. Up 7 lb.
|
Jamie Powell | K J Condon | 3 | 54 kg |
10
9/1
|
| 4th | 13 | 10 |
Bint Majestic Roi (F)
Belied odds of 50/1 when opening her account in 1m Dundalk handicap in December. Performed with credit when fifth of 12 over the same C&D next time but couldn't be sure that this drop to 6f is what she wants.
|
Andrew Slattery | A Slattery | 4 | 54 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 15th | 14 | 14 |
Goofy Gander (F)
[H]
Hinted at ability in a trio of maidens at 2 yrs and while a significant step forward will be needed on this return/handicap debut, she needs a close look in the betting given the connections she represents.
|
Patrick McGettigan | Mrs J Harrington | 3 | 54 kg |
29
28/1
|
| 11th | 15 | 7 |
Reimagined (F)
[H1]
Stepped up on 2-y-o debut when winning a 6f Windsor novice for Eve Johnson Houghton last summer but nearer last than first both subsequent starts. Hood enlisted for this stable debut.
|
Nathan Crosse | Daniel McLoughlin | 3 | 54 kg |
34
33/1
|
| 9th | 16 | 12 |
Tai Tam Bay (M)
Sole win from 27 runs was gained at Naas almost 2 years ago but she has finished in the money on several occasions since. Not without each-way hope.
|
Chris Hayes | E & P Harty | 5 | 54 kg |
