15th Apr 2026 Good 3m 0f 58y Class 2 |
11st 7lb |
Useful hurdler in Ireland; beaten in a match over fences on stable debut (first-time visor); this return to hurdles is welcomed but he appears to have developed some of his own ideas; had wind surgery. |

17th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 10y Class 3 |
11st 6lb |
Very useful handicap hurdler in Ireland when on song but not at same level on his three chasing attempts, and looked very unenthusiastic when third in four-runner beginners' event at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good) in July; swaps blinkers for first-time visor on this stable debut; will probably need to travel with much greater zest. |

11th Jul 2025 Good 3m 1f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Rated 139 over hurdles, two of three wins having been at Bellewstown; ran well on chase debut when second in Galway beginners' last summer but didn't count at Tipperary more recently; not easy to assess back chasing. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Four hurdle wins at different trips, most recently over 3m at Clonmel in November; respectable fourth here behind Ad Caleum last month but may not have been suited by tight Ballinrobe track latest; others with stronger claims. |
12/1 |

26th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 131y |
11st 8lb |
Dual-purpose course winner; 9.25l behind Ad Caelum and Dartan at Kilbeggan latest, weakening after being hampered at the last; is 8lb above his last win but his yard is in form and he could go well dropped slightly back in trip. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |

Very useful handicap hurdler on his day but yet to make any further progress over fences since winning Listowel beginners' chase last season; went close at Perth last time, faces a much harder task in a handicap of this standard. |

10st 9lb |
Two-time hurdles winner but on losing run since November 2024 success at Navan (2m4f, gd-yld); below best in handicap chase when last seen at Kilbeggan in August and Sean Flanagan seemingly prefers Hgranca De Thaix. |
12/1 |

9th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 38y |
11st 2lb |
Sole win over fences came in a 2m6f beginners' at this venue; mostly been hurdling recently but ran respectably on return to chasing in the Connacht National at Roscommon on his latest start; that 3m1f trip stretched him, this distance is more suitable; should go well. |

9th Jun 2025 Good 3m 1f 24y |

Over two years since his sole win over fences but this is only his fifth attempt and he was placed over hurdles last time off 5lb higher (3m, good); prone to mistakes in this discipline but could go well if finding some fluency. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 4m 2f 74y Class 1 |
10st 5lb |
10yo who's had 70 races (only one of today's rivals has managed even half that) and won 11; latest was the 3m5f cross-country at Cheltenham Festival, comfortably holding off Favori De Champdou for career-best form off the same mark as today; having taken so well to that discipline (he also won there in December) and produced his best performances away from soft ground, he has to be considered seriously. |
25/1 |

11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
10st 9lb |
High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) in December, winning quite comfortably by just over 4l; weakened into fifth in soft-ground C&D contest won by Favori De Champdou in January but ran well for a long way and ought to be better suited by the less testing conditions today; each-way claims at least. |
7/1 |

5th 2 |
24th Jan 2026 Soft 3m 5f 56y Class 2 |
11st 12lb |
High-mileage 10yo who took very well to this C&D (good) last month, leading from the ninth fence and beating J'Arrive De L'Est quite comfortably by over 4l; went up 9lb for that, though, and may not be ideally suited by the slower ground today. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Won consecutive handicap hurdles in 2024; hit and miss since and one of his best efforts was runner-up at Downpatrick in June; below that twice since and needs a repeat. |

8th 2 |
14th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Out of form this year but his run at Downpatrick in June was a positive when a 1.25l second of nine (2m2f, yielding to soft); didn't build on that at Galway last time when well beaten (2m1f, good); different headgear combination tried but needs to bounce back. |
18/1 |

2nd Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 175y |

Got back on track with a 1.25l second of 9 at Downpatrick (2m2f, yld-sft) last time out off 119; raised 1lb for that but rider's 5lb claim negates that; well beaten in this last year but claims if backing up that last run. |

11st 3lb |
Peaking at the right time, having recorded a career-best RPR with game win under Niall Moore in Listed handicap at Leopardstown (3m, heavy) last month; however, doesn't seem to be crying out for this drop back in trip. |

2nd Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 19y |

Only a 2m4f Cork maiden win to his name but arrives on the back of a career-best third to Champagne Kid in valuable 2m5f handicap here at Christmas, staying on well from the last after hitting a flat spot turning in; 3lb wrong but step up in trip could well bring improvement, providing he handles the conditions; each-way value. |

His three hurdle wins came at Fairyhouse on good ground at 2m4f-3m but nothing since late 2024; some cracking runs in defeat though, including when third off this mark at Cork (3m, yielding); challenging for the lead when unseated at the third last at Wexford last time; down to an attractive mark. |

Bumper runner-up who returned from a long absence to win a maiden at Newcastle (2m1f, good to soft) in February on her fourth hurdle start; takes a big step up in trip on handicap debut but she's in top hands and her dam is a sister to Midlands National winner Goulanes; could go well. |
