3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 3lb |
Mayo contender was a revelation for his new trainer last year; won three hurdles on decent ground here, latest over 3m1f; showed nothing in Flat maidens as a youngster, but he's a different model nowadays and could be very well in; has won off similar layoff. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
11st 0lb |
Speedily-bred but won back-to-back 2m4f handicap hurdles at this track early in the summer; found out by a higher mark since but ran well on chasing debut last time, both here; this trip is a question. |

Last three runs here; won consecutive handicap hurdles over 2m4f before a solid fourth over a similar trip; has a shout if jumping soundly on chasing debut. |

Scored over 3m2f here last May on good ground; placed again here over 25.5f in October off his revised mark; below best when last seen in January and this trip may be too sharp. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |

Got off the mark over C&D in May but has been well below that level twice since; had an excuse for the first occasion but has to improve plenty from last time. |

7th Oct 2025 Yielding 2m 6f 60y |

Breakthrough success at Sligo in May off 88; scoped dirty after heavy defeat off revised mark behind Boston Rajj back there on latest; best form has come on good ground so needs the track to dry out. |

12th May 2026 Good 3m 1f 172y |
11st 12lb |
Three-time winner over hurdles, the latest at Clonmel last November off 3lb lower (3m, soft); pulled up on latest but has run well here before so could rebound; place shout. |
10/1 |

5th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 15y |
11st 2lb |
Won at Clonmel in November off 3lb lower; bounced back to form after three poor runs with a 5l third of 10 over C&D 17 days ago (1.5l behind Toor Khov); not guaranteed to back that effort up but place claims at least if he does. |

Veteran improved his hurdles strike-rate to 5-60 with Clonmel victory on the 101st outing of his career in January off 93; generally unpredictable; pulled up on his three most recent attempts. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 131y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Just one win in 24, and Ffos Las near-miss on second outing for current handler likely owed something to the drop to 0-105 company (3m, heavy); limitations exposed again since and this is tougher still. |
16/1 |

31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 7f 32y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland where she was effective on good ground; conditions were heavy when going close at Ffos Las a month ago (3m) and she travelled strongly deep into that race; possibilities off 4lb higher. |
4/1 |

2nd 5 |
1st Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 191y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Had plenty of racing in Ireland, winning just the once; made a quiet start for this yard at Chepstow but in a Class 3 handicap over 2m3f and this is easier; should handle the ground and has form over this far. |

The last of his two hurdle wins came just over two years ago off 5lb higher; close third over fences here two starts ago but below that level since; has to rebound back hurdling. |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
11st 3lb |
Made all to win by 15l over C&D in August, her sole win; was well-held over fences since and has a 9lb higher mark to cope with today but a 7lb claimer helps so has to be considered. |
4/1 |

19th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 4lb |
Winner of fifth point start; two chasing runs under rules have seen him tailed off and pulled up; nonetheless, there is encouragement to be found in his recent hurdles form with back-to-back runner-up finishes before a wide margin victory at Sligo last time (3m1f, good); he is a huge player if he can bring that form to fences. |
6/1 |
|

20th Aug 2025 Good 3m 1f 118y |
10st 4lb |
Now 0-23 over hurdles but runner-up the last twice on good ground, clear with winner over 3m1f at Kilbeggan and similarly over 2m7f at Bangor last month in today's headgear combination; should again be thereabouts and yard in much better form now. |

10st 8lb |
Now 0-10 over hurdles but ran well before fading into third at Navan in December (3m1f, soft to heavy); failed to back that up when tailed off at Ayr; this trip looks a bit short; cheekpieces. |
12/1 |

24th Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 1f 80y |
10st 9lb |
Showed some ability in bumpers last year without winning; hasn't really kicked on over hurdles but was keeping on over 2m7f at Killarney last time; this trip should suit and can be a player. |
4/1 |
