9st 3lb |
Quietly fancied and seemed to improve for this trip when placed in Leopardstown handicap on his return, and that can be marked up because he was on the slower ground up the straight; most of the Harrington string are coming on for their first runs, too, so lots to like. |

Naas auction series final sixth was an improvement on his maiden runs before that; not too far off Madbandandangerous on that running on these revised terms and longer trip should suit. |

9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some good runs in defeat in four maidens, including when beaten a head by Madbadanddangerous over C&D last month (yielding to soft); couldn't justify 5-6 favouritism at Thurles three days ago (1m, good to yielding) and McMonagle jumps off now. |

4th 1 (1) |
9th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 44y |
9st 9lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown before hitting the frame in 7f Galway maiden; headed late on when narrowly denied at Naas (7f, yielding to soft) in first-time tongue-tie (retained) three weeks ago; the third bolted up at Killarney on Monday; sets a good standard up in trip. |

9st 7lb |
Encouraging debut at Leopardstown when beaten roughly 6l before hitting the frame in a Galway maiden over this trip (beaten roughly 2l); form has a solid look to it and he's a big player if he takes to the first-time tongue-tie given that we know he'll handle conditions. |

9st 5lb |
One of four for trainer; some debut promise at the Curragh and stepped up on that run (albeit beaten odds-on favourite) when just going down in a prolonged duel over 7.5f at Roscommon in August; sent off odds on again at Tipperary later that month (7.5f, yielding) where he finished behind both Redemption Road and Madbadanddangerous; McMonagle jumps ship now |

Some debut promise on Curragh debut and stepped up on that run (albeit beaten odds-on favourite) when just going down in prolonged duel over this trip at Roscommon; has to concede weight but sets the standard and major player. |

2nd 4 (6) |
19th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 111y |
9st 5lb |
Second runner for yard; sent off at 40-1 on debut in a strong maiden at the Curragh (7f, good) and wasn't beaten all that far in eighth, running on nicely from the back; preferred by the stable jockey and a very interesting runner. |

1st Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 120y |
9st 8lb |
Rated 92 after five starts; respectable runs in Goffs Million and valuable auction series final at Naas; 6.75l sixth of 8 in Leopardstown Group 3 in October; beaten favourite on seasonal return at the Curragh (7f, heavy); gelded since; big chance on the figures but stamina to prove; due to run 3.50 Listowel on Saturday. |

28th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |

Ran creditably in two valuable conditions races last season, tenth of 30 over C&D in the Goffs Million and fifth in a Naas event; ended the season with a run at Group 3 level in the 1m1f Eyrefield Stakes at Leopardstown, appeared not to stay; first time in a maiden now; official rating of 95 may flatter him, but he could be good enough here; tongue-tie on. |

One of four for trainer and appears the pick of them on jockey bookings; didn't get a clear run but ran on well on Down Royal debut (7f, good) when handled considerably and running green; Lucia Molloy was in front of him that day but with that run under his belt he can do better now. |

Ghaiyyath colt; cost 17,000eur as a foal and 30,000eur as a yearling; half-brother to 6f/7f winner American Star (including 2yo; RPR 93); dam unraced half-sister to winners Lilbourne Lad (6f Group 2 2yo) and Bobbyscot (Group-placed 7f/1m2f); trip should suit this interesting newcomer and worth a market check for yard that can ready one. |

1-5 as a two-year-old, the win coming in a 7.5f (yielding) Tipperary maiden in August; huge step forward on latest when running on nicely for a 3.25l third in a Leopardstown Group 3 (Geryon and Iron Lily behind); step back up to 1m looks sure to suit; go well if handling this quicker ground (half-brother won on good to firm). |

Close second in Tipperary maiden (7.5f, yielding) on debut; off the mark on next start in 7f Naas maiden (soft); 2l third in valuable auction series final over same C&D (soft); narrowly denied on seasonal return/handicap debut at Leopardstown latest (10.5f, gd-yld); reliable and in the mix again off 3lb higher. |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |

Decent level of form in three outings in second half of last season, notably getting up late in 7.5f Naas auction event and slightly shorter trip against him at same venue final start when staying on third in valuable auction series final; good chance he'll improve for this step up in trip and on an okay mark. |

Made a positive debut at Tipperary over an extended 7f to go down by just 0.5l behind Redemption Road; won over C&D latest on yielding to soft ground, keeping on well; should be thereabouts again but likely wants further in time. |

Useful form on easy ground last autumn; Killarney maiden winner in early October and won a valuable restricted contest over 7f at Naas six days later; unplaced in a handicap on her seasonal debut; conditions race at Cork last month; well held by Drop Dead Gorgeous on running in a Group 3 fillies' event here last time |

Not so promising maiden runs before some okay efforts in handicaps but his mark of 67 leaves him with a lot to find at these terms; cheekpieces on. |

Outran his odds of 50-1 on handicap debut at Killarney (1m, good) when beaten 1.75l into third; didn't back it up at Naas (1m, soft) last time, weakening late; a bit to prove now dropped back to 7f. |

Only 4.5l behind Composing on debut and some decent efforts recently including at Down Royal last time in a lesser quality race than this; unable to win off 74 in a handicap here on penultimate (1m, yielding to soft); others more likely. |

18th Sep 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Promising debut at the Curragh despite odds of 66-1 but disappointed when favourite at Leopardstown second time out; ran with credit from the front in a Navan maiden claimer (1m, yielding) since but doesn't look particularly well treated now handicapping and has stall 15 to negotiate here. |

Some promise in her three maiden runs last term; always behind on handicap debut at Naas last time (6f, soft); perhaps the added tongue tie can get more from her. |
