10th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 60y |
11st 8lb |
Has regressed sharply since winning on the Flat for Karl Burke and nothing positive to report so far over hurdles, including last week's handicap debut (33-1). |

2nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 110y |
10st 12lb |
AW winner for Karl Burke early last year; regressive in turf handicaps; hinted at handicap potential at Naas in March on his third maiden hurdle start, beaten 28l in sixth behind a Willie Mullins-trained odds-on chance in a 20-runner contest. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Disappointed in this race last year and the form of his close third over C&D that September has not been matched; second of six at Ascot on penultimate start was his best show this term but he needs better than that. |
20/1 |

3rd 3 (3) |
24th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
Won the Shergar Cup Stayers handicap over C&D last August and he was back to that level when second over 1m6f here (good to firm) a fortnight ago; remains on a competitive mark and needs respect. |
3/1 |

2nd 2 (1) |
11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Made good strides last season and scored twice at up to 2m, latterly at this track (good to firm); shaped encouragingly on 2026 return (1m2f); failed to build on that at Windsor (11.4f) nearly ten weeks later but takes another step back up in trip today; well handicapped if he returns to his best. |

3rd May 2025 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Made the frame in two bumpers and, after a modest spell on the Flat, didn't run badly when third on last month's hurdle debut at Newcastle (2m4f, good), albeit no match for the first two; could run into a place now back down in trip in first-time blinkers. |

Four-time hurdle winner; had few chances on the Flat but her recent handicap debut saw her finish eighth of ten when a 50-1 shot; has new combination of accessories today but others appeal more for win purposes. |

7th Jul 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Fine record of 3-5 on the AW for Andrew Balding; 0-3 on turf on the Flat for that yard and hasn't troubled the judge in three runs over hurdles since joining this stable; pulled up over timber at Listowel after break latest; questions to answer. |
9/4 |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time AW winner on the Flat; okay efforts in maiden hurdles at Navan and Limerick last autumn without really threatening to win; will qualify for a handicap mark after this. |

Triple AW winner over 1m2f for Andrew Balding before being sold for 48,000gns; was beaten 26l on debut over hurdles at Navan and has to improve loads. |

Minor promise in a 1m3f Southwell novice after Christmas; unable to make the drop in class pay when finishing remote in a 1m4f classified there since but the drop in trip might work better for her. |
