1st May 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 45y |
11st 11lb |
Well held in handicap hurdle outings; added a second win over timber in January when landing a Cork rated novice hurdle (2m1f, yielding to soft); followed up on AW to notch a second Flat win; cheekpieces go back on after he was tailed off in a Fairyhouse novice handicap hurdle last month (2m, yielding to soft). |

11st 12lb |
Well held in his two previous handicaps as a jumper but has since won a Cork novice and a staying handicap on the AW; others are a bit more intriguing, however; cheekpieces removed. |

10st 4lb |
Dual-purpose type; had been a runner-up in two previous visits to this venue before going one better over C&D five days ago with a ready 3l success; that win came on the back of a Cork novice hurdle victory last month; shoulders a 7lb penalty now but could have more to offer. |

Only two of 10 wins have been on turf but rated 80 so has to be respected in this grade. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Course regular (8-35) who is now at the veteran stage; no faulting his two runner-up efforts over 1m4f/2m here this year; always behind in valuable 1m2f Lingfield contest at Easter; solid claims back at his favoured venue. |

14th 4 (9) |

9st 7lb |
Dundalk regular (8-35) who is now at the veteran stage; no faulting his two runner-up efforts over 1m4f/2m this year, but he may be vulnerable to younger legs back down in trip. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 6lb |
Both career wins have come here, the latest in this race last year off 1lb higher; has run well in defeat over much further on turf a couple of times this term and soft ground wouldn't have suited at Galway latest; should be doing his best work at the finish. |
11/1 |

31st Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Two-time AW winner is 0-9 on turf; stayed on well for a 2.75l second over 2m1f at Killarney last time and closely matched with The Kingstonian on Chester form in May; may need more of a stamina test. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 1 (5) |
14th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 185y |
10st 0lb |
Premier handicap winner over 1m2f at Dundalk last season; upped in trip this year to decent effect; good third in the Chester Plate in May; made no impact in the Northumberland Plate last time but will appreciate the calmer waters here. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 6lb |
Has lost way since winning at Gowran in July of last year; way below best on turf when last seen in April and has been gelded; cheekpieces tried now on first start since rejoining yard; probably best watched unless backed. |
25/1 |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 50y |
10st 0lb |
Classy 2yo won a three runner race Gowran last July, his third win on turf; has failed to fire since and was never sighted in the Irish Lincolnshire last time, although heavy ground may not have suited; sliding mark but others appeal more. |

9st 0lb |
Smart juvenile in 2022, winner of the Group 2 Beresford Stakes; has come down in the world in recent seasons and has been competing over longer trips on AW; makes little appeal despite career-low mark. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 4lb |
Won on handicap bow at Cork (1m4f, soft) last season off 14lb lower and then ran well in a Listed heat at Naas when a 3l second behind Carmers (1m5f, good); poor both starts this season, albeit heavy ground may not have suited on latest; could do better back on a sounder surface. |
40/1 |

11th 6 (9) |
30th Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 6f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won on handicap debut at Cork (1m4f, soft) last April off 75; creditable second behind Carmers in a 1m5f listed race here (good) in May; 2m may have stretched him on return from a break at Dundalk last month; sharper for that and interesting back in a handicap. |
7/1 |

5th 3 (5) |
6th Feb 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Second runner for yard; won a 1m4f Cork handicap (soft) last April before posting a solid effort in a 1m5f Listed heat at Navan (good); below best when last seen at Leopardstown in June and has been gelded; probably best watched on first try at 2m. |

Well beaten in two bumpers, only glimpses of form on the AW and pulled up after poor round of jumping on hurdles debut at Limerick in May for Eoin Griffin; yard debut. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

Well beaten in two bumpers; weak form on his last three Dundalk visits after hints of ability on his first two runs at that venue; no hurdling experience. |

6th Mar 2026 Standard 2m 0f 0y |
10st 11lb |
Well beaten in two bumpers; has shown glimmers of promise in a couple of 1m4f course maidens; never a factor on C&D handicap debut last month; cheekpieces are now tried. |
33/1 |
