Irish challenger whose sole success came in a Limerick maiden on his hurdles debut in May 2024; placed five times last term and returns to this discipline after a couple of unsuccessful runs over fences this month; win record is offputting. |

Sole success came in a Limerick maiden hurdle in May 2024; placed several times since and made a promising debut over fences when fourth of 12 at Wexford (2m, good to yielding) 16 days ago; should win races but up against a serious rival here. |

Finally got off the mark over hurdles at Downpatrick (2m2f) last May; tried chasing again last month but well below par in handicaps (up to 2m2f) at Wexford and Limerick; needs this return to hurdling to spark a resurgence. |

Dual-purpose; 4-33 over hurdles; last won at Killarney off 4lb lower last July (20.5f, yld-sft); good ground is fine but lacks a run and overall record when fresh suggests he'll come on for this run. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 100y |

Best of six point starts was a 5l third; tailed off in two maiden hurdles before outrunning his odds of 125-1 to finish a good fourth at Cork last time (2m2f, good); that was a big improvement on all previous form and hard to know if he can repeat it. |

Got third hurdles win at Wexford in March off 104 (2m, good to yielding); some reasonable runs since then on the Flat and over hurdles; didn't jump fluently at Down Royal but still managed a 5l eighth (2m1f, good to firm); has won on soft and heavy, so ground of no concern. |
