3rd Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 4f 40y |
11st 12lb |
Won a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan in August (2m3f, gd-yld); respectable run on handicap debut at Galway (16.5f, good), doing best work at the finish; this trip more suitable but may not appreciate the forecast rain. |

Built on an improved display at Ballinrobe when winning a 2m3f maiden at Kilbeggan a month ago; opening mark appears stiff, but further progress is quite feasible. |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 7f 0y |
11st 12lb |
121-rated hurdler who won 2m5f Navan maiden early last season (yielding) but struggled in handicaps, too keen when pulled up at Fairyhouse last time; half-brother to Grade 2-winning chaser Westerner Lady so fair chance he'll take to chasing. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |
10st 10lb |
With top yard but has failed to build on his September Navan maiden hurdle victory (2m5f, yielding); beaten 27l and then pulled up in first two handicaps at Leopardstown on contrasting ground; others preferred. |

27th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Wide margin winner of Limerick bumper in November; much improved on second attempt hurdling when clear second to a useful sort in Clonmel mares' event (soft) but has run poorly both starts since, found to have blood at both nostrils at Clonmel and (after 6 months' break) weakened tamely before last at Kilbeggan early this month; entitled to come on for latest but has questions to answer at this stage. |

11st 5lb |
Wide margin winner of yielding ground Limerick bumper in November; much improved on second attempt hurdling when a clear second to a useful sort in a mares' event at Clonmel (2m1f, soft); found to have blood at both nostrils when a disappointing favourite back at Clonmel last time; given a break following that; thereabouts. |

13th Feb 2025 Soft 2m 3f 0y |

Fulfilled earlier promise when running away with a Limerick bumper in November and much improved on second attempt hurdling when a clear second to a useful sort in 2m1f mares maiden here last month (soft), each time forcing it; should make a bold bid. |

10st 11lb |
Sent off at 9-2 on debut but outpaced and finished an 18l eighth of nine; half-sister to six winners and is surely better than she showed; cheekpieces may help sharpen her, but Townend prefers Eclipse Chaser. |

7th Jul 2025 Good 1m 7f 204y |

Half-sister to six winners including smart jumpers Super Duty and Grandads Cottage; dam unraced; likely contender for top yard that's won this three times since 2017. |

Standout effort a third in a 2m Listowel maiden (good) but was still beaten 14.5l; tailed off on handicap debut at Galway latest when a 66-1 shot; now visored. |

30th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 80y |

Has shown some ability in maiden hurdles but poor efforts in two chases and on handicap hurdle debut at Limerick (2m5f, heavy); cheekpieces go on but others more likely. |

Half-brother to six winners including Open Wide (5f/6f inc 2yo/AW; RPR 104), Katimavik (7f/1m; 90) and Kings Creek (1m7f/3m hurdle); bit novicey in jumping department when never better than midfield on Tipperary debut in May; can do better for top connections. |

Half-brother to six winners inc Open Wide (5f/6f inc 2yo/AW; RPR 104), Katimavik (7f/1m; 90) and Kings Creek (1m7f/3m hurdle); one of two for trainer so market check advised. |

Pulled up in a point-to-point and no show at huge odds in two maiden hurdles; unlikely to be the answer here. |
