Diamond Exchange (F)

Gained a third win of 2026 at Naas early last month. Ran too badly to be true in the midst of an excellent season there (11f, good to firm) since but can bounce back quickly (successful only previous…

Largely consistent sort who finally got off the mark in 12-runner course maiden in May. Only sixth of 8 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good to firm) 8 weeks ago and hopes pinned on a step up in tri…

Had eased in the weights and having attracted support, bounced back to best when head second of 11 to Diamond Exchange at Naas (11f, good) early last month. Of obvious interest again from the same ma…

Capitalised on a drop in grade when ending long losing run in a Limerick claimer in June before following up back in a handicap at Ballinrobe (1¼m) later that month. Unable to continue the good work …

Pavilion End (G) FAV
Has only a C&D maiden success to his name but arrives in top form, third of 11 at Leopardstown (13f, good) most recently. Surely capable of defying a mark in the mid-70s so one to take seriously.

Ran well here last winter, scoring over C&D in February. Hasn't been in same form back on turf since but could fare better returned to this track.

Trishuli River (M)

Four-time course winner who was in good form here last winter. Hasn't looked close to capitalising on lower turf mark in recent starts, though. Better showing anticipated back on synthetics.

Placed here back in the spring but last seen pulled up in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe 4 months ago. Handicapper given him a squeak but others more appealing on balance.

Celtic Druid (G)
Scored twice over C&D on first 2 starts this season. Has continued in good heart since, seventh of 11 at Leopardstown (13f, good) last month. Respected back here.

Direct Approach (G)
Promise on final outing for Donnacha O'Brien 12 months ago but only bits and pieces of promise from his hurdling exploits this summer. Makes Flat handicap debut but increasingly looks one to avoid.

Fair hurdler who won at Downpatrick in June. Shaped as if needing the run back there last month and made little impact ridden in customary fashion when eighth of 13 at Down Royal (18.6f, good) a fort…
