5th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Contested some good maidens and runner-up three times before decisive win at Gowran (beating Iceford) in May over this trip; creditable handicap debut against his elders at Cork when racing away from the pace; rider's claim a positive back against his peers. |

Contested good maidens; runner-up three times before decisive win at Gowran last month; form franked but 11lb rise makes this hard for the only three-year-old in the race taking on battle-hardened handicappers. |

Second to Ballydoyle-trained colts (notably Monday's Tetrarch Stakes winner Officer) on his first two starts before a fourth behind one from the same yard at the Curragh last year; strong in the betting when second of 16 at Naas (7f, soft to heavy) on return; leading contender on this contrasting surface. |

9st 4lb |
Was 3.25l behind Glen To Glen over 6f on seasonal debut before winning a C&D handicap; not bad runs at Ascot and Naas after but was below form on soft at Galway; the various headgear is left off today and is a player. |

Off the mark over this trip at the Curragh in May, okay run since at Ascot, most recently last of three in Naas conditions event when having to force it; blinkers now replace cheekpieces; others preferred although rider's claim a positive. |

Was 2-4 in early 3yo hurdles last season, including over C&D; absent after finishing second at Punchestown in October until fair Flat comeback at Galway in July; respectable display back over hurdles when third behind two older rivals at Kilbeggan early this month. |

Improved to finish a close third to today's rival La La Lucrative at Roscommon in June and might just have been in front long enough when collared on the post by Phoenix Pairc over the same C&D three weeks ago; just 1lb higher now and good chance that she can improve enough to prevail here; cheekpieces left off today. |

Returned from 182-day break and made stable/handicap debut over C&D in November but finished tailed off; same story next time over 6f; stable's sole runner of the year thus far won at 28-1; worth a market check in first-time blinkers. |

Three runs at this trip; raced keenly at Naas; slowly away when eighth of 17 at the Curragh; slowly away again at Gowran on latest when stable's second string; will need to break better but could be ready to slot into handicaps at this modest level. |
