| Race | Horse | Form | Odds | Rating | Weight | Age | Jockey | Trainer | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13:55 Punchestown | 1st (1) Amangani |  | | | | 2 | Dylan Browne McMonagle | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Plenty of promise when finishing fifth in a Dundalk barrier trial back in July; was 7-2 for her racecourse debut at Gowran Park and she ran a very pleasing race to finish a 1.75l third of 14 behind Greatest Drama (Mint Candy second); open to improvement and leading claims. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (2) Annie M | | | | | 2 | Adam Caffrey | Adrian McGuinness | Has failed to beat a rival in first two starts at 80-1 and 150-1; should qualify for a mark after this run. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | 3rd (3) Beyond Dreams | | | | | 2 | Chris Hayes | D K Weld | Eleventh foal; half-sister to five winners inc Zoustar (Australian 5.5f-7f inc 2yo/Group 1; RPR 117), Emperor Of The Sun (1m 2yo/1m6f Listed; 113), Kondo Isami (1m2f 2yo/1m4f; 96) and Ciarlet (Australian 5.5f/6f); dam Australian 6f winner; impeccably bred daughter of Wootton Bassett makes plenty of appeal on paper; watch for market support. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (4) Its All Peachy | | | | | 2 | Colin Keane | M D O'Callaghan | A 100,000 euros filly was sent off at 25/1 for a Leopardstown maiden won by subsequent Listed scorer Chantez last month; displayed some signs of greenness and ought to improve for that experience; could go well with Keane taking over in the plate. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | 2nd (5) Joyful Princess | | | | | 2 | Shane Foley | Mrs John Harrington | Was a 22-1 shot for her debut at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) and she ran a nice race to finish fifth, just 2.5l behind subsequent maiden winner Jaliyah (New Wave 2l behind); she was slow away and green that day before staying on late and she should be more streetwise now; the form of her debut is strong and she is another with big claims. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (6) Kilgharrahs Love | | | | | 2 | Wayne Lordan | Thomas Cleary | Not a bad effort at 125-1 on racecourse debut at Gowran last month but will need more to trouble the judge here. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (7) Mint Candy | | | | | 2 | Ryan Moore | A P O'Brien | Improved on debut fourth when going down by a nose in a Gowran Park maiden two weeks ago; had Amangani 1.75l behind in third that day and there shouldn't be much between them again; Ryan Moore gets the leg up now for the first time and she ought to be thereabouts again. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (8) Murray's Castle | | | | | 2 | Seamie Heffernan | Paul John Gilligan | A 15,000 euros yearling; tenth foal; half-sister to five winners inc Sopran Basilea (Italian/US 1m1f-1m3f inc Group 2; RPR 112) and Power Best (French/Italian 5f-6.5f inc 2yo/AW; 98); dam Italian maiden, half-sister to two Italian sprint Group 3 winners; Irish Rover filly has a nice pedigree but yard not known for 2yo winners; best watched. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (9) New Wave | | | | | 2 | Rory Cleary | J S Bolger | Sent off at 66-1 when beaten 10l on her debut at the Curragh (7f, good to firm); was 2l behind Joyful Princess that day and while she should improve for the run, it is hard to see her turning that form around; however, it was a strong maiden and she could sneak into the frame at a decent price. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (10) Perfect Base | | | | | 2 | W J Lee | Miss Natalia Lupini | 55,000 euros 2yo; ninth foal; half-sister to five winners inc Broken Stones (Group-placed 6f 2yo; RPR 107), Piecederesistance (1m 2yo/1m2f; 93), Usra (5f 2yo; 85) and Dana Forever (6f; 76); dam placed 1m3f (67), granddaughter of 1m2f Group 3 winner; Acclamation filly related to 2yo winners and in-form yard can ready one first time up; market check advised. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (11) Princess Peggy | | | | | 2 | Gary Carroll | Gordon Elliott | Triple figure odds for both starts and beaten a combined distance of 50l; others preferred. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (12) School Of Athens | | | | | 2 | Shane B Kelly | J P Murtagh | Showed a bit of promise in a 7f Dundalk barrier trial; similar story when she was keen on racecourse bow at Tipperary; finished sixth of 13 that day, beaten 5.25l (7.5f, good to firm); if she settles better, she could sneak into the frame. |
| 13:55 Punchestown | (13) Sweet Zaroline | | | | | 2 | Declan McDonogh | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Tongue tied for debut (retained) at Gowran where she finished well behind Mint Candy and Amangani at odds of 12-1; needs a big jolt of improvement to be involved at the finish. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (1) Desmond Castle | | | | | 2 | Declan McDonogh | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Well-beaten on debut and unseated rider at the start next time; more encouraging at Galway last week behind a smart rival but still beaten 13l. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (2) Expert Analysis | | | | | 2 | Ronan Whelan | W Ross | Well beaten on debut at Galway but a better effort at the Curragh since; can run respectably but likely to be better suited to handicaps. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | 1st (3) Genealogy | | | | | 2 | Ryan Moore | A P O'Brien | Cost 400,000Gns as a yearling; finished ahead of some of these rivals when runner-up to a better fancied stablemate on debut at the Curragh; should have improved since and is a major player |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (4) Hibernate | | | | | 2 | Dylan Browne McMonagle | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Seventh foal; brother to several winners incl' Al Hamdany (1m-1m4f inc AW 2yo/KSA; RPR 101) and Schwartz (1m5f-2m inc AW; 78); dam unraced; a 38,000euros yearling was a 45,000gns vendor buyback at a breeze-up sale; sixth in a Leopardstown barrier trial recently but looks stable first-string; difficult draw. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | 4th (5) Land Of The Giants | | | | | 2 | W J Lee | Miss Natalia Lupini | Seventh foal; half-brother to winners Spartan Warrior (1m2f/1m4f; RPR 75) and Silky Warrior (US 1m-10.5f); dam 1m2f winner (99), from family of Arc' second Mubtaker; 16,000gns yearling made 30,000euros at a breeze-up sale; by a useful sire and could run well. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (6) Lord Byron | | | | | 2 | Wayne Lordan | A P O'Brien | Eighth foal; half-brother to five winners incl' Shamida (1m4f/1m6f inc Group 3; RPR 109) and Shajak (Listed-placed 12.5f Flat, 99; 2m hurdle); dam 1m4f winner (80); by a leading sire and will appreciate this trip; yard second-string but can run well. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (7) Micasso | | | | | 2 | Seamie Heffernan | Donal Kinsella | Beaten 22l on Curragh debut last month and can't be fancied on that form. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (8) Mocking | | | | | 2 | Shane B Kelly | J P Murtagh | Beaten 11l on recent debut at the Curragh and will have to improve a fair bit on that. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | 3rd (9) Starry Desert | | | | | 2 | Shane Foley | Mrs John Harrington | Has improved with each start though beaten approx' 4l on all of them; was just ahead of a subsequent smart winner when second at Galway last time over this trip; a major player. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | 2nd (10) Storm Piece | | | | | 2 | Colin Keane | G M Lyons | Related to plenty of winners and dam a Group 1 scorer; finished a close second on debut in a well contested Curragh maiden over 7f; this trip should be fine and, with improvement to come, can be a major player today |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (11) Trubshaw | | | | | 2 | Gabriella Hill | Henry De Bromhead | Beaten nearly 20l on debut at Tipperary and can't be fancied on that evidence. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (12) Wackestone | | | | | 2 | Chris Hayes | Gordon Elliott | Won a barrier trial in July at Dundalk; beaten 9l on debut at Gowran over 7f but can improve from that up in trip. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (13) Faerie Tales | | | | | 2 | Gavin Ryan | P G Fahey | Beaten a long way on debut at Leopardstown and can only be watched today. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (14) Whywhywhy Delilah | | | | | 2 | Nathan Crosse | David Marnane | Beaten approx' 6l on both starts and will have to find significant improvement today. |
| 14:25 Punchestown | (15) Pallatine Hills | | | | | 2 | Eddie & Patrick Harty | Reserve; beaten 10l on Tipperary debut and will have to improve loads on that | |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (1) Lust | | | | | 6 | Sean Bird | Michael Mulvany | Listed winner for Ger Lyons in 2022 but has fallen a long way since then; is off an attractive mark in theory but still needs to do more than lately. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | 3rd (2) Passionate | | | | | 4 | Andrew Slattery | Andrew Slattery | A wide-margin winner of a Killarney handicap on soft ground earlier in the season but was well beaten on good at Gowran since; might need rain on return |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (3) Mooretown Lad | | | | | 4 | James Ryan | M D O'Callaghan | Got off the mark over 1m1f at Leopardstown and mightn't have stayed 10.5f at Naas last time; can be involved down in trip. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (4) Trethorn | | | | | 3 | Shane Foley | Mrs John Harrington | Showed some ability on one of three maiden runs this year, all over 1m2f at the Curragh; cheekpieces on for handicap debut down in trip; check the market. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (5) Big Island | | | | | 7 | Scott McCullagh | W J Lanigan | Dual-purpose winner whose best Flat efforts have come with an ease in the ground; beaten a long way on Roscommon return and best watched for now. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | 2nd (6) Stormie Outlook | | | | | 5 | Seamie Heffernan | E J O'Grady | Won handicaps over this trip at Gowran and Killarney before decent efforts in defeat at Galway and Cork; can be in the mix again. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (7) Pillar Of Hope | | | | | 6 | Robert Whearty | C Moore | Four wins in UK but has been regressive since moving to Ireland; a better effort when not a clear run at Galway last time; down 2lb and a chance on debut for a new yard. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (8) Amanirenas | | | | | 5 | Danny Sheehy | M C Grassick | Won a Bellewstown claimer over this trip in July but has been poor twice since and has to bounce back; cheekpieces left off |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (9) Gandolfo | | | | | 3 | Colin Keane | Noel Meade | Some good maiden runs last year but hasn't gone on from that this term; however, best effort came when just denied in a Gowran handicap over this trip last time; up 3lb but should still be a player. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (10) Sportingsilvermine | | | | | 3 | J M Sheridan | Denis Gerard Hogan | Maiden has run well in defeat at times; was too keen over 1m2f at Naas last time and could be suited by this drop in trip; one to consider. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | 1st (11) Proleek Prince | | | | | 4 | Dylan Browne McMonagle | M M Rice | Some promise in maidens; best handicap effort came when third over 1m2f at Naas last time; this shorter trip can suit better as he weakened late on that day. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | 4th (12) Avatar Jet | | | | | 3 | Gary Carroll | Mark Fahey | Won at Killarney but was poor at Galway next time; solid runs twice since but 1m2f might have stretched him at Down Royal last time; has a shout off the same mark. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (13) Purple Sky | | | | | 3 | Gabriella Hill | J S Bolger | One of two runners for yard; best effort when fourth under this rider at Gowran but a lesser effort at Galway a week ago; a chance if bouncing back. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (14) Seurat | | | | | 3 | Chris Hayes | W T Farrell | Beaten a long way in three maidens and will have to improve plenty even dropping to handicaps. |
| 14:55 Punchestown | (15) Naisiun | | | | | 3 | Rory Cleary | J S Bolger | Reserve; won a 7f Naas handicap on heavy earlier this year; hasn't been as good since and tongue-tie will need to have an effect. |
| 15:25 Punchestown | 1st (1) Star Harbour | | | | | 6 | Adam Caffrey | Adrian McGuinness | Has been in good form this year, winning twice including a 1m4f Curragh premier handicap and a Tipperary conditions race over this trip; just denied on AW last time off a mark of 105; will be very difficult to beat on these terms. |
| 15:25 Punchestown | (2) Acotango | | | | | 4 | Jack Cleary | Gerard O'Leary | AW winner over a mile in UK for Harry Charlton was 3rd over that trip on final start there; sold for 30,000Gns since; has a bit to find on these terms; due to run at Laytown 7.05 Monday. |
| 15:25 Punchestown | 3rd (3) Akecheta | | | | | 4 | Shane B Kelly | Kevin Thomas Coleman | Won a Tipperary maiden over 7f on debut before a fine second in a Gowran conditions event over this trip; just denied over 1m2.5f at Roscommon last time, probably outstayed; this trip can suit better; tongue-tie added. |
| 15:25 Punchestown | 2nd (4) Gesture | | | | | 3 | Shane Foley | E J O'Neill | Dual AW winner in the spring was well held twice on turf after; gelded and back from a break, so best watched on these unfavourable terms. |
| 15:25 Punchestown | 4th (5) Our Town | | | | | 4 | Ronan Whelan | Mark Fahey | French winner over 1m2f (sft) last year was well beaten in two starts in UK and best watched on Irish debut after a break. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 4th (1) Coul Dreamer | | | | | 3 | W J Lee | W McCreery | Well-backed on debut at Gowran and ran a fine race behind his stablemate to finish third (Ard Na Mara and Powerful Hook Head behind); drop in trip not ideal when well-beaten at Bellewstown latest and the step back up in trip should suit; not without a chance if repeating his debut effort. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 5th (2) Genoah | | | | | 3 | Colin Keane | M D O'Callaghan | Disappointing first two runs on turf at Leopardstown and Gowran; much better last time switched to the AW at Dundalk, beaten just 2.75l into second; given a rating of 75 and has been gelded since; place chance if he reproduces his Dundalk form back on turf. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 13th (3) Lost Soul | | | | | 3 | Gary Halpin | Kevin Prendergast | Tenth foal; half-brother to five winners inc My Sapphire (French 5f 2yo; RPR 90), Cristal Breeze (6f-8.6f inc AW/Australia; 88); dam 1m AW winner (71), half-sister to useful 7f/1m winner Musical Rain; Awtaad debutant probably best watched but is worth a market check. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 3rd (4) Molto Amichi | | | | | 3 | Seamie Heffernan | Eoin Griffin | An 8,000 euros 2yo; fourth foal; dam 1m4f winner (RPR 80), half-sister to 2m Group 3 winner Patkai and 1m4f Group 3 winner Modun, out of unraced sister to 1m2f-1m4f Group/Grade 1 winner Islington; Caravaggio gelding best watched on debut. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 2nd (5) Mythical Rock | | | | | 3 | Luke McAteer | Alan McIntyre | Best effort in four starts came over this trip at Ballinrobe in June when beaten a head; 3.75l behind Ard Na Mara when sixth of 22 over 10f at the Curragh last month; beaten 6l latest start over 1m at Bellewstown; needs more to win this but has a place chance back up in trip. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 8th (6) Powerful Hook Head | | | | | 3 | Dylan Browne McMonagle | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Was 8-1 for debut at Gowran when finishing fifth (behind Ard Na Mara and Coul Dreamer); should improve plenty for that run and the tongue tie he wore is retained; he makes the shortlist. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 12th (7) Vadali | | | | | 3 | Ronan Whelan | M Halford & T Collins | Ground versatile colt has gone close on his last two starts; beaten just 0.5l over 8.5f at Galway on latest, shaping like this sort of trip could suit; rated 78 and should run another solid race but probably needs to find a little bit more to win. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 1st (8) Ard Na Mara | | | | | 3 | Rory Cleary | J S Bolger | Split Coul Dreamer and Powerful Hook Head when fourth on debut at Gowran Park; built on that with another fine effort behind Fighter at the Curragh (1m2f, good) and he franked the form in the Petingo Handicap at Leopardstown on Saturday; leading claims. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 10th (9) Binneas | | | | | 3 | Gabriella Hill | J S Bolger | Tenth foal; closely related to 7f-10.6f AW winner Heavy Weight (RPR 82), half-sister to winners Glor Na Mara (Group-placed 1m inc AW; 113), Cirin Toinne (1m1f/1m2f; 97) and Wexford Opera (6.5f-1m; 93); dam unraced daughter of US 7f stakes winner; Parish Hall debutante looks stable second string. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 14th (10) Blathnaid | | | | | 3 | Gary Carroll | Cian Hughes | An 8,500 euros foal; eighth foal; half-sister to four winners inc Rasheeq (6f inc AW 2yo; RPR 97), Smiling Jayne (1m2f; 85) and Warm Words (Greek 5.5f-7f); dam unraced half-sister to 1m/1m2f Listed winner Moneycantbuymelove, out of 1m2f winner; Belardo debutante probably best watched. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 11th (11) Onlyinyourdreams | | | | | 3 | Nathan Crosse | Mrs John Harrington | Solid effort on debut at Tipperary when beaten 3.5l into fourth on soft to heavy; failed to back that up on quicker ground at Bellewstown when tailed off; can only be watched after that tame effort; Shane Foley prefers Yes Oui Si. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 7th (12) Storm Averted | | | | | 3 | Wesley Joyce | Michael Mulvany | 30,000gns yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to 5f AW 2yo winner Aussie Stormer (RPR 78) and KSA 1m winner Galileo Boy; dam Listed-placed 5f/6f 2yo winner (inc AW; 97), out of half-sister to 6f Listed winner Danehill Destiny; Inns Of Court filly is speedily bred and best watched. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 6th (13) Strolling | | | | | 3 | Chris Hayes | D K Weld | An 82 rated filly ran her best race to date last time when narrowly denied at Tramore (12f, yielding); the visor worn that day is discarded and blinkers go on; she didn't look the most straightforward of rides the last day and this drop in trip and quicker ground raises question marks; however, she can't be fully discounted. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | 9th (14) Yes Oui Si | | | | | 3 | Shane Foley | Mrs John Harrington | Is 0-5; rated 77; her best runs have come over further; standout effort came in June at the Curragh over 1m4f; beaten 10l at Tramore on latest and shaped like dropping in distance would suit; Shane Foley prefers her over Onlyinyourdreams and she can't be written off in first-time cheekpieces. |
| 15:55 Punchestown | (15) Good Time Jonny | | | | | 9 | Mrs C O'Leary | First reserve; won the Pertemps at Cheltenham in 2023; struggled on all three Flat starts and will be of more interest when tackling handicaps. | |
| 15:55 Punchestown | (16) Perfect Reel | | | | | 3 | Danny Sheehy | M C Grassick | Second reserve; sent off at big odds on debut and failed to beat a rival home; others preferred. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | 4th (1) Perfect Poise | | | | | 4 | Colin Keane | G M Lyons | Sole win came over 1m at this track last year; lots of fine runs since in varying ground conditions; looked ready for a step-up in trip at Navan last time and should go well. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | (2) Glen Princess | | | | | 3 | Patrick McGettigan | J P Murtagh | Both wins have been at Gowran over 1m, including a comfortable claimer win last time; blinkers worn then retained; disappointing both handicap starts and needs to do better up in trip. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | (3) Sli Na Ghealai | | | | | 3 | Rory Cleary | J S Bolger | Two wins last year over 7f; solid in defeat last twice over similar trips to this at Galway and Leopardstown; raised 1lb and can go well again. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | 1st (4) Shavasi | | | | | 3 | Dylan Browne McMonagle | Joseph Patrick O'Brien | Killarney maiden winner over a mile on fast ground was beaten 4l on handicap debut at Sligo over 1m2f when 2lb out of the handicap; drop in trip could suit and should be a player. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | (5) Tachos | | | | | 3 | Chris Hayes | D K Weld | Gowran handicap winner over this trip in June and solid in defeat since up to 1m2f; blinkers could eke out a bit more improvement so one to consider. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | (6) Counterculture | | | | | 3 | W J Lee | W McCreery | Got off the mark on testing ground at Roscommon but handles this surface too; steps up up in trip for handicap debut; can be keen so will need to settle to get home. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | 3rd (7) Darkdeserthighway | | | | | 6 | Seamie Heffernan | M D O'Callaghan | Three-time winner was a close fourth at Gowran but was poor at Leopardstown since and has to bounce back; unproven over this trip. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | (8) Nahori | | | | | 4 | Andrew Slattery | Thomas Gibney | AW maiden winner on debut last year; hasn't progressed since though not a bad effort last time at the Curragh; tongue-tie worn then is left off; not ruled out. |
| 16:30 Punchestown | 2nd (9) Presence | | | | | 3 | Shane Foley | Mrs John Harrington | Won a Ballinrobe maiden over a similar trip to this and a fine handicap run at Galway since over an extended mile; ground-versatile and can be a player. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | 4th (1) Lady Arwen | | | | | 5 | Jake Coen | Conor O'Dwyer | Is 3-24; last win came off 72 at Gowran in September 2023 (1m, good); on a nice mark if she rediscovers her best but this trip is a concern and she has been in poor form so far this season. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | 2nd (2) Church Mountain | | | | | 6 | Daniel King | Denis Gerard Hogan | Four-time winner shaped as though he was coming to hand when beaten 2l into fourth at Cork last time; is 13lb below his last winning mark and he has place claims at least if backing up his last effort. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | 1st (3) Rockbury Lad | | | | | 5 | Jamie Powell | M D O'Callaghan | Sole win to date came on the AW; 0-20 on turf but didn't run too badly when meeting traffic problems over 7f at Leopardstown last time; can't be fully discounted upped in trip but others look more likely. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (4) Jarvis Brook | | | | | 4 | Donagh O'Connor | Paul Nolan | Off for 502 days when running a huge race to finish second behind Polemon on his handicap and stable debut at Gowran last month; the winner has gone in again since so a 4lb rise shouldn't be insurmountable; chance once he doesn't bounce. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (5) Harseva | | | | | 4 | Gary Halpin | Gerard Keane | Eye-catcher on her handicap debut at Leopardstown and backed that up when beaten just 2l into third at Navan where 1m2f and the stiff finish possibly stretched her stamina; should go well again off 1lb higher dropped slightly in trip. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (6) Roderick | | | | | 8 | Patrick McGettigan | C Moore | Is 4-22; last win came in a claimer in July 2023 at Killarney for James McAuley; didn't show much in three runs for H D McGuigan and now has his first run for another new yard; best watched with cheekpieces worn last time discarded. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (7) Tartaraghan | | | | | 3 | Siobhan Rutledge | John C McConnell | Is 0-14 on turf but has gone close a few times this season; was beaten just 1.5l into second off 56 at Down Royal last time and given a 3lb rise for that; solid place claims again. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | 3rd (8) Skontonovski | | | | | 7 | Rory Cleary | Adrian McGuinness | Won for the third time on turf off 53 at Fairyhouse at July (7f, good); solid efforts on his last three starts and is only 1lb higher than he was for his last win; however, he has never won over this far and that has to be a worry. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (9) Marians Gal | | | | | 4 | Nathan Crosse | Kevin Michael Smith | Ran well on her handicap debut at Dundalk last December; beaten 16l in both handicaps on turf; others preferred. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (10) Dazzling Spirit | | | | | 6 | Rory Mulligan | Mrs Denise Foster | Shaped well at Leopardstown in June over this trip when beaten 3.25l off 56; failed to fire over 1m4f and 7f the last twice and is now down to a mark of 50; well-handicapped, returns to her best trip and if she reproduces that Leopardstown run she could outrun her odds. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (11) Adhuil | | | | | 5 | Rebecca Parsons | Aidan Anthony Howard | Is 0-17 on the Flat on turf but has posted some decent efforts this year for this 10lb claimer; third, beaten 3.25l on soft ground at Tipperary last time (1m1f); however, he may need softer ground than he is likely to encounter here. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (12) Dark Treat | | | | | 5 | Mikey Sheehy | Timothy Doyle | Beaten around 9l in first two tries in handicaps; shaped ok at Gowran (9.5f, good) last time out when sixth of 13; is 4lb wrong at the weights here but it is still relatively early days for her and she could outrun her likely odds. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (13) Leviosa | | | | | 7 | Danny Sheehy | Seamus Fahey | Is 1-18 but that win came back in 2021; placed at Limerick and Roscommon earlier this season but her last two runs, over hurdles and on the Flat, have not been as good and she needs a revival; blinkers go back on. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (14) It's A Gamble | | | | | 3 | Killian Leonard | Brian Nolan | Best effort in maidens came when beaten 11l at Limerick; ran poorly on handicap bow in first-time hood which is discarded; may need more time and is 2lb wrong. |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (15) Hopkins | | | | | 5 | Timothy Doyle | First reserve; good run over 11.5f at Limerick on penultimate start when shaping as though in need of further; beaten out of sight at Tipperary last time; can only watch after that. | |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (16) Designer Cailin | | | | | 6 | Patrick Martin | Second reserve; only beaten 2l off 47 at Gowran (9.5f, good) in July; failed to back that up at Dundalk last month which is a worry as has won there before; 0-25 on turf and probably best watched if getting a run. | |
| 17:00 Punchestown | (17) Kampala Beach | | | | | 5 | M Halford & T Collins | Third reserve; Leopardstown winner in August 2023 off 47; off since below par run when 6-4 favourite for a 10.5f Dundalk handicap last November; best watched on return from 300 day absence. | |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (1) Wrist Art | | | | | 7 | Sam Coen | Timothy Doyle | Won twice last year, including a division of this race off 47 by 4l; subsequently won at Thurles (8f, soft) off 58 and got a 12lb hike; back down to 64 after a couple of below par efforts this term and jockey takes off 10lb; return to this C&D a plus and could outrun his odds. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (2) Limestone Red | | | | | 4 | Scott McCullagh | M Halford & T Collins | AW winner is 0-10 on grass but he produced his best turf run to date when beaten 0.5l at Cork last month (1m1f, good to firm); up 2lb for that effort but should be competitive again; place claims if repeating that last run. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (3) The Cola Brasil | | | | | 8 | K W De Oliveira | Michael J Browne | Is 2-13 on turf; back from 151 day break with quiet run at Galway; well beaten on sole try at this sort of trip and all his best form is over shorter; others are preferred. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | 1st (4) Keilah | | | | | 4 | Nathan Crosse | W McCreery | Has improved since moving to Willie McCreery; best effort yet when beaten just 0.5l at Navan last time out off 52 (1m2f, good); this slight drop in trip should suit on that evidence and she has place claims again off 3lb higher. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | 3rd (5) Kiki Roberts | | | | | 3 | Mikey Sheehy | Noel Meade | Ran well in a Gowran Park claimer last time out (1m, good); beaten 3.25l off 64 on last handicap start at Leopardstown in August; assessor has given her a chance but she probably needs more to win in first time cheekpieces. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (6) Bride Tree | | | | | 4 | N G McCullagh | Sarah Dawson | Is 0-10 on turf; has won on the AW and posted a fine effort at Dundalk on last start, beaten 1l off 59 over 1m; 5lb lower mark on grass but her best form has come on softer ground; probably needs rain. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | 4th (7) Finsceal Annie | | | | | 3 | Jamie Powell | Ciaran Murphy | Running really well in handicaps in recent weeks; won off 48 at Tipperary in August over 7.5f; just failed to follow up over 1m1f back there last time when arguably unlucky; up another 5lb but that may not be enough to halt her progression; cheekpieces go on; leading claims. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (8) Simple Endeavour | | | | | 3 | Siobhan Rutledge | Mrs John Harrington | Prominent racer has to contend with a wide draw here; has gone close the last twice, beaten 0.5l at Tipperary off 56 and 1.25l at Navan off 57; jockey's claim a plus and she should make another bold bid. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (9) Pomeriggio | | | | | 3 | Shane B Kelly | Peter Fahey | Won a claimer for Jessica Harrington in December; poor form since moving to current stable; hard to fancy on recent showings. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (10) Glencullen | | | | | 4 | Rory Cleary | Ms Joanna Morgan | Standout effort came at Fairyhouse in July, beaten 2.75l off 48; hung left last time when attempting to make all at Clonmel; blinkers are now reached for and others are preferred. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (11) Hale Bopp | | | | | 6 | Danny Sheehy | R Donohoe | Back to form when sixth of 28 at the Curragh last time out (7f, good to firm); has never won beyond 1m and his best recent form is on the AW at Dundalk; probably up against it but can't be fully discounted if repeating his last effort. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (12) Tall Story | | | | | 6 | Jack Cleary | Ross O'Sullivan | Is 0-39 but has hit the frame on multiple occasions; poor effort at Leopardstown last month but went close off 47 at Fairyhouse (7f, good) on his penultimate start; 2lb wrong but 7lb claimer negates that and he could bounce back; place claims. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (13) Ballinahulla | | | | | 3 | Conor Maxwell | Conor David Maxwell | Looked of little account until almost springing a surprise at Down Royal eleven days ago, beaten a short head off 49 at odds of 50-1; that was over 1m5f and not sure this drop in trip will suit. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | 2nd (14) Dynamite Defense | | | | | 3 | Killian Leonard | Denis Gerard Hogan | First-time blinkers (retained) seemed to bring about an improved performance last time at Tipperary but he still finished ninth of 13; needs more to feature at the business end here and may need more time. |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (15) Dumb Love | | | | | 4 | Gerard O'Leary | First reserve; dual purpose filly has run well over hurdles on her last two starts; solid effort on the Flat over this trip at Leopardstown in June off 62; 3lb lower now and could go well if she gets a run. | |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (16) Cousin Shay | | | | | 5 | John C McConnell | Second reserve; in good form at Dundalk earlier this year; back from 136 day break with a poor effort at Bellewstown; 0-4 on turf and others hold stronger claims. | |
| 17:30 Punchestown | (17) Gudrun Genberg | | | | | 5 | Aidan Anthony Howard | Third reserve; 0-14 on turf and best efforts have come on soft ground; back from 201 days off with moderate effort at Navan (1m5f, good to yielding); 7lb wrong and passed over. |
