25th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 5y |
11st 5lb |
Three-time course winner, twice over fences in 2023 and won over hurdles here in April; struggled in a better race than this over C&D latest; this easier and can't be dismissed given his liking for this venue. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
10st 0lb |
Kilbeggan specialist with a couple of handicap chase wins in 2023 (including this race) and landed 2m2f handicap hurdle in April; fair third off higher chase mark at Ballinrobe since; 3lb wrong here but respected given his record here. |

3rd 7 |
26th May 2025 Good 2m 3f 136y |
10st 10lb |
Gained his tenth success (and first for this stable) when taking a handicap hurdle over 2m2f at Kilbeggan a month ago; most recent chase run saw him finish second to Flash De Touzaine at Limerick on stable debut; good chance he can reverse that form and go close in the process. |

Off the mark over C&D earlier this month when coming late for neck success in novice handicap (yielding) on return from chasing; up 4lb but respected off a light weight. |

7th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 60y |
10st 13lb |
0-8 over hurdles; fine run here over 16.5f (good) off 1lb lower on penultimate; didn't fire over fences at Listowel on latest but return to this sphere a plus and he's hinted that this sort of trip might suit before; not out of this. |

26th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 3f 100y |
11st 9lb |
Has been running well in defeat over hurdles including a 5l fourth of 20 at the Galway festival on latest (16.5f, good); eye-catching jockey booking for chase debut and handles easy ground; could go well. |

8th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 5f 180y |
11st 11lb |
Has achieved his best form at this venue, namely when twice second (in a maiden and a handicap) in the first half of 2025; moderate form last summer; always behind at Down Royal on return from a break; appears to be the trainer's second string. |

17th Mar 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 86y |
11st 13lb |
One of two for yard; some fair efforts in defeat last year but pulled up on heavy ground when last seen in November at Fairyhouse; these conditions more suitable, capable off this mark and not dismissed dropped in grade. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 92y |

Fair form earlier in the year, notably when twice runner-up at Downpatrick; more recent efforts have left a lot to be desired; moderate third in a maiden at Downpatrick in August; down the field in a handicap at the Listowel festival. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |

Lightly-raced 8yo; Fair fifth at Kilbeggan on penultimate start off the same mark; workmanlike winner of a maiden hurdle last time at Downpatrick (2m3f, good); this will be just his second run in a handicap so he is entitled to continue improving. |

11st 7lb |
Irish challenger whose sole success came in a Limerick maiden on his hurdles debut in May 2024; placed five times last term and returns to this discipline after a couple of unsuccessful runs over fences this month; win record is offputting. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 61y Class 3 |

Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here. |

Three-time hurdles winner on good to yielding; finished 0.75l behind Spick And Span at Clonmel (2m4f, yielding) before stepping up in trip at Tipperary last time to record a very easy victory (23.5f, good to yielding); up 7lb now and drops back in trip. |

Won a 2m handicap in 2024 for Henry de Bromhead; back to form in November on first run for this yard and not discredited next time but, with tongue-tie fitted after wind surgery, she pulled up lame on chase debut in January and was well beaten when upped to an extended 2m3f three weeks ago; this trip is a big step into unknown territory. |

Veteran is 3-38 over hurdles, the last win coming at Punchestown (2m4f, good) in November 2024 off 84; decent fourth at Clonmel (2m4f, heavy) before dismal effort at Punchestown next time (2m3f, heavy); bounced back with rallying runner-up finish at Clonmel last time (2m, heavy); on career low mark and can't be ruled out. |
