29th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 3f 58y |
11st 4lb |
Made good start in the autumn, winning the first academy hurdle (Cork) and following up in 2m1f maiden here (heavy); better form on quicker ground when third in 2m Fairyhouse 4yo contest and when fifth of 22 in Fred Winter at Cheltenham last month in first-time cheekpieces; tries a new trip here and a contender if staying. |

11st 4lb |
This dual winner (on good/soft to heavy) has had his limitations laid bare the last twice, though they were classy juveniles he bumped into last time at Fairyhouse and that was probably his best performance (he didn't look out of his comfort zone deep into the race); legendary Irish trainer Jessica Harrington rarely brings one over without a degree of optimism; cheekpieces added. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 10lb |
Flat winner is 0-7 over hurdles but has run well in defeat and is rated 116; off since a below par run in a Fairyhouse novice handicap in April (2m, yld-sft); was only beaten 2.5l off 118 in a Listed handicap hurdle at Limerick in December; leading claims if ready after break. |

11st 2lb |
1m4f winner; 0-6 as a hurdler but was third off this mark at Christmas and then ran into the smart Proactif here in January; the concern is his ordinary run last time at Down Royal (maiden). |

Flat winner; has made the frame in all five starts over timber; third to the useful Quinta Do Lago in a Punchestown maiden hurdle in November; another positive run in a Listed Limerick handicap hurdle; 12l fourth behind Proactif (beaten favourite for the Triumph) at Fairyhouse two months ago. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 130y |
11st 0lb |
Won three of his six races (at up to 1m4f) for Roger Varian; 0-6 over hurdles; has failed to build on a third-placing in a Naas event in which the top-class Saratoga was second; twice a beaten favourite since then (including in a 4yo handicap at Ascot) and looks vulnerable. |

26th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 13y |
11st 0lb |
Won three of his six races (at up to 1m4f) for Roger Varian and was useful; 0-5 over hurdles but bar one blip it's been a promising start; placed in three of his four starts over hurdles in Ireland, including a Naas event in which the top-class Saratoga was second; hung badly right when failing to justify support in a juvenile handicap hurdle at Ascot. |

29th Mar 2026 Good 1m 7f 157y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won three of his six races (at up to 1m4f) for Roger Varian and was useful; 0-4 over hurdles but bar one blip it's been a promising start; he was facing testing ground for the first time in his life when third at Naas in the race that yet again provided the winner of the Fred Winter and conditions were again slow when third in a big-field maiden last week at Navan; suspicion there's more in the locker that could be unleashed now handicapping, especially back on a drier surface; big player. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Didn't really take to hurdling but she relished the step up in trip in this code when easily winning a 13-runner handicap at the Curragh (1m4f, good) in June; she has to prove that brilliance was no one-off but it was certainly an impressive performance and she could have a part to play today. |

Down Royal maiden winner last June (10.5f, good); ran well in 1m2f handicap here last October and just 1lb higher here; shaped like coming back to form when keeping on from the back over 1m2f here latest; bred to stay this far; could go well. |

Consistent last season; ended with C&D second behind today's rival Retracement on handicap debut; jumping let her down in juvenile hurdles; sharpened for return to the Flat by a handicap run at the Punchestown festival. |

Maiden hasn been getting closer of late, close fourth (0.5l off Earthsong) at Navan and similar distance off Quiz Test when fourth at Galway last month (1m4f, soft); place claims. |

8th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 50y |
11st 12lb |
250-1 academy hurdle winner for Richard Morrissey; form otherwise poor but has joined a shrewd yard ahead of handicap debut and notable that trainer rides (2-5 this season, 12-27 last season); market check advised on return from six month break. |

11st 0lb |
Won an academy hurdle at 250-1 in December (2m1f, soft to heavy) after being tailed off in his first two starts; never in contention when raised in class at Fairyhouse, fell two out; would be a surprise winner against his elders here. |

14th Jan 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 0lb |
Became one of the longest priced winners in Irish racing history when winning a Naas academy hurdle at 250-1 last month (2m1f, soft to heavy); had been tailed off in his opening two runs, but kept on nicely for his win; remains to be seen whether he can repeat the trick. |
