Weak maiden form; in rear in two handicaps; no appeal despite rider's valuable claim |

31st May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 150y |
12st 0lb |
Remote third on debut in a Clonmel bumper a year ago; beaten 68l and pulled up in two maiden hurdles since; off since January; a repeat of that debut run would give him a place chance in this weak race. |

26th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 145y |

Order Of St George 5yo cost 31,000euros as a 3yo; half-brother to four winners in France inc Devona (2m2f hurdle) and Vaheoz (2m3f-2m5f hurdle/chase); dam unraced half-sister to top-class 2m chaser Azertyuiop; market best guide but likely to be all the better for the run. |

Couple of fair efforts in bumpers last term, at Navan and when midfield at Leopardstown; by Kalanisi and out of a Definite Article mare so bred to appreciate decent ground and drops in class here. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 107y |
11st 2lb |
Big price in all three maiden hurdle outings; not a bad effort when 20l fifth at Ballinrobe on handicap debut; improvement needed in a first-time hood. |

3rd Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
11st 0lb |
Three wins for new stable last season (2m, heavy-good to soft) and he's continued in good form, beaten only 1l when fourth at Fakenham (2m4f, good) last month; the drop back in trip could help; firmly in calculations. |
7/2 |

4th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 1y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Three wins for new stable last season, the latest here (2m, good to soft) in March; might have been a shade unlucky when keeping-on third at Stratford (2m2f, good; denied clear run) last time and is unexposed over 2m4f but needs to maintain his progress to land this prize. |
12/1 |

3rd 2 |
28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 2f 148y Class 4 |
11st 13lb |
In fine form for his current yard and he got back on the up with 2m Fakenham handicap success 15 days ago; up 3lb but strong at the finish there so he holds excellent claims back over a longer trip. |

Axxos gelding cost 7,500euros as a foal; third foal; dam unraced half-sister to 2m4f-3m4f hurdle/chase winner Riverside City; pulled up on debut for Thomas Byrne in Lingstown point-to-point in March and beaten a long way on Clonmel bumper debut earlier this month, albeit not without market support; tongue-tie tried. |

15th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 159y |
11st 7lb |
My Dream Boat mare; dam bumper and 2m4f hurdle/useful 3m1f chase winner; none too fluent, tailed off on debut early last year in Navan maiden hurdle won by a better-fancied stablemate; from top yard so has to be respected on switch to bumper in what looks a modest enough contest. |

My Dream Boat mare; dam bumper and 2m4f hurdle/useful 3m1f chase winner, sister to 2m4f-3m hurdle/chase winner Backinthere and bumper/2m4f hurdle winner Kilnockin Lady, is granddaughter of 2m6f hurdle winner; tough ask for a newcomer. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 3y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
0-8 in bumpers and 0-4 over hurdles when based in Ireland but belied 200-1 odds when very respectable sixth of 19 in good-quality Naas maiden (2m, soft to heavy) on latest outing in December; should be okay on the much quicker ground here and new stable tends to do well with new recruits. |

Chased home a 15l winner in a bumper at Clonmel in May on debut; has failed to build on that in five subsequent starts; well beaten in sixth in maiden hurdles at Wexford and Gowran. |
