Curragh Betting Odds

Suited by having a sound gallop to aim at when winning 15-runner handicap at Navan over this trip last month and defied a 9 lb rise to follow up at Bellewstown (15 ran, 5f) 8 days ago. Up another 5 lb but should go close to completing the hat-trick with Keane back in the saddle.

Improved to make successful handicap debut at Dundalk in February and ran well from a less-than-ideal position when fourth of 23 in handicap (9/1) at this course (7f, heavy) 22 days ago. Interesting dropped to sprint trip but low draw could be a negative.

Belied odds of 50/1 when opening her account in 1m Dundalk handicap in December and ran well from out of the weights tackling a sprint trip for the first time when fourth of 16 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (heavy) 16 ago and she can give another good account.

Latest win came at Naas in July and shaped very well when third at this C&D on penultimate outing last season. Below form over 7f here when last seen but makes return from 168-day absence from reasonable mark.

In the frame in 3 Dundalk maidens this winter and produced his best effort switched back to handicap company when runner-up there in March. Rallied late from off the pace when sixth of 15 in handicap (10/1) at Naas (5.9f, heavy) 28 days ago and he looks competitive on form.

Proved progressive and reliable in a 2025 season that garnered 3 wins. Rare poor effort when last seen at Dundalk but overall profile is very positive and she's respected returning from 6 months off.

Runner-up at Galway over 8.5f in the summer but ended 2025 with a brace of below-par efforts. Others are preferred having first try at sprinting in a first-time tongue strap.

Successful 3 times from 10 runs for George Boughey last year. Bit below his last in 2 starts at Dundalk for this yard but goes back on turf now below his last winning mark.

Runner-up 3 times at Dundalk after joining this yard but ran below form on turf debut when seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 35 days ago. Conditions unlikely to be as extreme here but needs to prove his effectiveness away from synthetics.

Down the field on all 3 starts in maidens but he shaped with some promise when seventh of 12 at Naas (6f) when last seen in September, weakening only in the final 1f having raced freely in front. Makes handicap debut.

Made a winning start for Aidan Melia at Bellewstown in October but subsequently disqualified after testing positive for banned substance. Ran well when third behind Alnofoor on return/stable debut at that same track last week and would merit respected from low weight if getting a run. RESERVE.

Capitalised on falling mark at Dundalk in September. Shaped as if better for the run when ninth of 12 in handicap (13/2) there (6f) 18 days ago, unable to sustain effort but others make greater appeal.

No better than mid-field in 3 maidens last year but opening mark looks fair and is probably worth a betting check returning from 9 months off without tongue strap.

Showed more than previously when second on nursery debut at Sligo (6f) in August but below form on seasonal return when fifth of 10 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft) 11 days ago. Others preferred.

Consistent performer in turf maidens with 3 fourth place finishes last season. Didn't shape too badly from a poor position when seventh at Naas (6f) on handicap debut last month but was tailed off here (7f, heavy) 3 weeks ago (found to be blowing hard post race). Hard to make case for from stall 1.

Produced his best effort in maidens when third at Navan in October, Market may prove best guide making handicap debut after 130 days off.

Third in a strong Navan maiden on sole start at 2 yrs but missed all of her 3-y-o season. Travelled well enough for a long way when ninth here on comeback and perhaps found next outing coming too soon only 2 weeks later. Interesting handicap newcomer sporting first-time tongue tie.

No better than mid-field in 3 maidens, returning from 6 months off when eighth of 16 at this C&D 35 days ago. Handicaps have seemingly been the plan so no surprise if he were to offer more here.

Fair form when mid-field in good C&D maiden on debut and had excuses on next 2 starts at 2 yrs. Shaped as if better for the run when eleventh of 15 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, heavy) 28 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time now.

Good fourth at Navan on penultimate start last year but rather predictable followed that with below-par effort here. Not the easiest to catch right and others preferred on return.

Won nursery at Navan in October during busy juvenile campaign for Michael Mulvany but yet to fire in 3 starts for current yard.
