28th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 81y |
10st 7lb |
3-26 over hurdles; runner up the last twice, off 5lb lower at Leopardstown and then off 3lb lower at Cork when 1.5l behind Onlymammycanloveme; weighted to turn that around but may be vulnerable to less exposed sorts. |

19th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 4f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Running consistently well over fences/hurdles this season; three seconds from four starts before a Limerick win; held her own when given a shot at a big prize at the DRF; runner-up at that venue on latest; in the mix again. |

5th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 113y |
10st 5lb |
Dual hurdles winner with his latest win being a C&D victory in January last year off 87 (soft) for Paul Hennessy; best effort for current yard was when runner-up behind a well handicapped rival here on heavy in February; hasn't matched that effort since. |
33/1 |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 157y |
10st 8lb |
Best effort for this yard when second behind a well handicapped winner over hurdles at Clonmel in February; reverts to chasing now (won over fences for Emmet Mullins in the summer of 2024); others preferred. |
40/1 |

16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 3f 60y |

Had been struggling to find his best form since joining this yard before an encouraging second behind a well handicapped winner at Clonmel in February; failed to build on that in two subsequent starts. |

17th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 188y |
10st 1lb |
A 250-1 Listowel maiden hurdle winner two years ago; added 2m Tramore handicap chase over the summer but two hurdle runs since a tad underwhelming, okay effort at Killarney latest; more needed. |
12/1 |
|
4th 8 |
4th Oct 2026 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 0lb |
A 250-1 Listowel maiden hurdle winner two years ago; won a 2m Tramore handicap chase last month, despite jumping left; beaten 14 in fifth when favourite for a handicap hurdle at Listowel nine days ago; still the most appealing of Eoin McCarthy's three runners. |

5th 12 |
25th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 0lb |
A 250-1 C&D maiden hurdle winner two years ago; was gaining his first win since when landing 2m Tramore handicap chase last month, despite jumping left; reverts to hurdles here off 6lb lower than chase mark and one to consider. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
Nine-race maiden but went close when beaten a head at Stratford on stable debut for Dan Skelton, his first attempt at 2m6f; was well backed and saw the trip out strongly, offering encouragement he'll stay this slightly longer distance; up 4lb but remains a leading contender. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 1 |
29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-8 over hurdles in Ireland but he finished third of 20 in a Cork handicap (2m, yielding) in April on his final run; left Shark Hanlon for 24,000euros since; now tries a new trip after a break but he needs a close look on his first run Dan Skelton. |
6/4 |

6th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 4lb |
Maiden's best run in four handicap starts was when third of 20 at Down Royal (2m1f, yielding) at Christmas; twice well held on more testing ground since; might go okay on likely better surface here. |

17th Oct 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 188y |
11st 9lb |
Progressive in four runs over C&D last winter, notably runaway win on heavy; solid run after a break here in March and reappeared at Listowel last month, running a bit in snatches, staying on late; that should have him spot on for this and has to be respected. |
11/2 |

6th 4 |
24th Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Progressive in four runs at Limerick last winter, having earlier finished sixth in this race on his Irish debut; seems significant that Eric McNamara has kept him fresh for this meeting which he is targeting with a lot of runners; definite chance. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 1 |
22nd Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 50y |
11st 12lb |
In fine form for local yard; won off 13lb lower over C&D (heavy) in November; career best off 103 when a 1.75l runner-up in a C&D Listed handicap hurdle in December, although form not working out so well; nudged up another 3lb but clearly loves it here and he's a huge player in this modest grade. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 157y |
10st 13lb |
Won here over hurdles in February (15.5f, heavy) and sent off favourite for 19.5f course handicap chase on latest when a never-threatening fourth; has a bit to find but the drop in trip should help. |

Best effort over hurdles came on penultimate at Kilbeggan but was still beaten over 7l into fourth of 13; didn't build on that run at Killarney last time; eased another 1lb and minor place chance on best form but needs more to win. |

Best effort yet on return from 131 days off at Kilbeggan (17.5f, gd-yld) when a 7.75l fourth of 13; should strip fitter now, eased 1lb and pedigree suggests that this trip might suit; not discounted. |
