16th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 6lb |
Bumper winner took a 2m4f Punchestown maiden hurdle last autumn but was then poor twice after; his yard is in better form now but he has plenty to find on chasing debut with some of these rivals. |

Ran well in defeat in multiple maidens and novices for Philip Rothwell; best efforts have come over 3m-3m1f so not sure this trip will suit but he's top rated at 112 and he should still go well on stable debut. |

Galway bumper winner for former yard; beaten favourite in his last two maidens (the latest here) but ran well both times and looks a winner waiting to happen. |

10th Aug 2025 Good 2m 5f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Winner of a Fairyhouse bumper on debut in November (yielding); some reasonable efforts in maiden hurdles at around 3m without winning; not so fluent at Kilbeggan last time when fading into second (24.5f, good to yielding); needs a bit more to win and needs to give weight away to most, but one of the leading contenders. |
11/4 |

Fairyhouse bumper winner; rating of 113 gives him every chance and he's posted decent efforts at around this trip on his last three starts; obvious chance in first-time blinkers. |

Rated 113; Fairyhouse bumper winner last November; looked short of pace when 10l third over 3m1f at Tipperary and last time when 2.5l second at Punchestown (2m7f); possibilities back up in trip |

Idaho gelding is a half-brother to a point-to-point winner; has struggled both starts in that sphere and can only be watched on racecourse debut. |

Dansant gelding is a half-brother to 2m6f hurdle winner Winding Roe; dam point winner, half-sister to useful 2m7f hurdle/3m2f chase winner Dance Island; yard 3-133 in maidens so probably best watched. |

Long odds and no impact in three maidens and similar story when beaten 72l off 89 on handicap debut at Sligo after five months off latest; steps up in trip; hard to fancy. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 3f 194y |
11st 3lb |
Shown very little at huge prices in three runs so far and has been off 133 days ahead of his handicap debut here; pedigree suggests return to further may suit on handicap debut and worth a market check; wears first-time cheekpieces and tongue-tie. |

Maiden hurdle winner who is 0-10 over fences; has placed form but he fell in March and his jumping lacked fluency at Wexford last time. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

5th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 50y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Showed only minor promise under rules in Ireland for Willie Mullins last year (five runs) and, having changed hands for 1,200gns in the autumn, was pulled up in a maiden point on British debut in January. |

9th Oct 2025 Soft 2m 4f 80y |
11st 12lb |
Midfield finish on bumper debut at Wexford; tailed off in two of three maiden hurdle runs, okay effort at Downpatrick when a 6.25l fourth of six (2m6f, good), sandwiched between two poor runs; little to recommend him other than the yard he hails from. |
6/1 |

5th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 100y |

Sent off 2-1 favourite for bumper debut at Wexford when a disappointing 13.5l seventh; tailed off over hurdles here following that (3m, good to yielding); better at Downpatrick last time when a 6.25l fourth; can improve again, but others bring more pressing claims; one of two for trainer. |

Rated 105 after four starts over timber; off for 469 days before posting modest efforts in maidens at Limerick and Punchestown on first two starts for this stable; best form on soft ground; hood now tried. |

Casamento mare; dam unraced sister to 3m/3m3f hunter chase winner Now Ben, from family of high-class staying hurdlers Bannow Bay and Mighty Moss; too keen when well beaten on Kilbeggan debut last month (3m); best watched for now. |
