Four-time Flat winner was placed in a maiden hurdle last season; big improvement needed from his first two handicap attempts at Navan and Fairyhouse. |

Four-time Flat winner ran well in a few maiden hurdles without winning, including at this track; however, has been well beaten on the Flat and in a h'cap hurdle lately so needs a return to best. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 29y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
With Denis Hogan when winning a Tramore maiden (2m) in April; followed up on Flat on debut for this trainer and has since been runner-up twice on Flat and a good third of 12 in Class 2 handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (2m1f, good); unraced beyond that but no way is he ruled out. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 4lb |
With Denis Gerard Hogan when justifying favouritism in a Tramore maiden (2m, good to yielding) in April; joined this trainer the following month for £26,000 and has been kept ticking over on the Flat (form figures 122); noteworthy he's pitched into a Class 2 for GB handicap hurdle debut; interesting. |

Signed off in Ireland with a maiden hurdle win; narrowly won over 1m4f at Kempton (AW) on yard debut before chasing home a clearcut winner over C&D; same mark here and could be vulnerable. |

Sole success came in a Ballinrobe claimer over 9.5f last summer; hasn't been out of the first three in her last six starts, including over 2m1f at Clonmel last time; needs more. |

Sole success came in Ballinrobe claimer (9.5f, good) last summer; never out of the first three in last five handicap starts over a variety of trips; no match for impressive winner when second at Killarney (14.5f) on latest but likely to be on the premises once again. |

AW winner in 2022; in moderate form over jumps before finishing last back on the Flat here 20 days ago; 7f would have been inadequate but still has serious questions to answer. |

No impact in maidens but strung together three decent handicap efforts including a 0.5l second at Down Royal (10.5f, good) off 62 on penultimate; below par at Navan off revised mark latest; more needed back in a maiden. |

Only 1-27 but twice placed here during the summer (7f/1m1f) and might have won on another day last time at Listowel where she didn't get the clearest of runs; (1m1f, yielding); stays this far; considered. |

Maiden ran well when a 3.75l fourth of 16 at Roscommon in May for this rider but hasn't backed that up; beaten 15l when down the field at Fairyhouse (1m4f, good) on latest. |

Dual-purpose maiden ran her best race at Roscommon last month when fourth of 16 (1m4f, yielding to soft); unseated on her second hurdles start at Ballinrobe next time and well beaten at Down Royal back on the level over 2m last time; this trip suits better. |
