Galileo 5yo is a dual Flat winner and landed Limerick maiden hurdle last year; would have needed first run of the year when never a factor on chase debut at Kilbeggan; jumped okay but probably best watched here. |

Dual Flat and a maiden hurdle winner at Limerick (2m1f, gd) last year; finished last season on a low note with a pair of underwhelming runs on the Flat and over hurdles; makes chase debut after 168 days off. |

Dual-purpose; bolted up in Sligo maiden hurdle last month (2m2f, good); previously soundly beaten over this C&D (gd-yld), extending his Flat record to 0-11; 3lb lower now but others appeal more. |

Decent form near the end of the season before last, winning a maiden hurdle at Clonmel and placed in a handicap at the Punchestown festival; fair form in handicaps last summer; subsequent form raises doubts. |

Hurdle winner is a maiden on the Flat but has posted some fine runs; however, has been poor in both codes last two starts so needs a return to form. |

0-8 over hurdles but has ability and was a good second in a mares' maiden hurdle over C&D (good) on penultimate; not as good upped to 2m6f on latest; the drop back in trip is a plus here but rated 88 so probably place claims at best. |

22nd May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 180y |

Fair form in bumpers early last season; best effort over hurdles yet when runner-up of 12 in course handicap (2m2f, good) two weeks ago, making most of the running; stamina not certain to hold out over this trip. |

Has improved markedly on last two starts, winning Ballinrobe handicap hurdles over 2m-2m2f; won by a wide margin last time and raised 11lb but has to be considered again despite a rise in class. |

25th Aug 2025 Good 2m 2f 60y |
10st 10lb |
Improver since entering handicap ranks, plenty keen when rallying second at Killarney (yielding-to-soft) and handled good ground well here earlier this month, leading early on, not fluent last but finding plenty run-in to win comfortably; type to keep improving (7lb higher) and slightly longer trip to suit. |

Improved from low-key handicap debut at Clonmel when second at Killarney last month; that run can be upgraded since he put in a few untidy jumps; good chance if he can improve his jumping. |

Off the mark on last start over timber at Kilbeggan (2m3f, gd-yld) off 96; hiked up 9lb for that and this trip and softer ground are queries; beaten off basement mark on the Flat here 23 days ago; a bit to prove in this tougher race. |

107-rated hurdler won a maiden in that sphere last summer; ordinary enough Flat form and doubt dropping back from last two runs over 1m4f will be the answer. |

Some good placed efforts in maidens on good ground; beaten just 0.5l on handicap debut at Galway in October (2m1f, yielding); never near to challenge on comeback at Naas in January (2m3f, yielding); solid fourth back in maiden company at Punchestown last time (2m3f, soft to heavy); form suggests a preference for better ground. |

Soundly beaten at big odds in handicap hurdles at this venue (11th of 12 finishers) and Sligo (last of 16) before showing dramatic improvement to win at Wexford last Friday; trainer suggested that the removal of a hood might have been a major factor; hard to find any positives in last season's form in Flat maidens; good Flat pedigree, unwise to discount. |

Not far off the pace when carried out at the second-last over C&D on latest, a race awarded to today's rival Qaasid on the disqualification of the offending Marian Avenue; it looked as if he was set to deliver a clear career-best; solid chance with that in mind. |
