11st 12lb |
Scored on second handicap hurdle start over 2m3f at Clonmel in March (soft) off 99 when dropped in grade; moderate on the Flat at Roscommon 12 days ago; this is a tougher task than his win but can't be dismissed. |

Veteran's sole win came at Gowran in January 2022 for Conor O'Dwyer; signs of life this season, especially on latest when runner-up of 16 at Clonmel (2m3f, soft); each-way possibilities from the same mark. |

Veteran's sole win came at Gowran in January 2022 for Conor O'Dwyer; signs of life when sixth of 20 at Down Royal in December; attracted market support at Thurles last month, never threatened; more like it when 8l fourth of 11 at Gowran last time. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |

Took a step forward over hurdles when third at Clonmel in March (2m3f, soft); well below that over fences at Tramore next time; headway into midfield when falling two out in Kilbeggan hurdle latest. |

One of three for yard; took a step forward in a 2m3f handicap hurdle at Clonmel (soft) on latest, outpaced and rallying for a 7l third; drop back to this trip for her chase debut is not an obvious move on that evidence. |

11st 8lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt over hurdles at Clonmel in February; raised 7lb and came up short back there on latest, though the 2m3f trip may have stretched him; could go well dropped back in distance for his first handicap chase. |
11/4 |

26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 188y |

No show in maidens; solid fourth on handicap debut at Listowel last September (2m, good to yielding); detached at Thurles next start; runner-up of 14 here in January, 23l behind an impressive winner; went one place better four weeks ago with a 7l success; 7lb rise is not particularly harsh. |

10th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 80y |
10st 2lb |
Hinted that this sort of trip might suit when staying on for a 12l fifth of 16 at Clonmel (2m3f, soft) in March; poor over 2m4f at Tramore latest, however, and has to prove her effectiveness on good ground. |

Well held so far in handicaps, although not discredited on latest of two runs for new yard at Clonmel when staying on late after an awkward start; may yet have more to offer off this lowly mark. |

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. |

Six-time winner in Britain and gained her first Irish win in game fashion over 2m4f at this venue in January 2024 on her third and final start for Marie Harding; at the veteran stage now but made a promising reappearance under Joanna Walton (aboard for all seven wins) over 2m at Naas recently; each-way prospects. |

Maiden took a nice step forward over this trip at Punchestown a fortnight ago, well clear of the remainder when outstayed by all-the-way winner Oogum Boogum (good); 3lb better off with that rival now so has her chance. |

Veteran finally made the breakthrough in 2m1 Bellewstown handicap in April and duly followed up at Down Royal early this month off 5lb higher under today's rider, produced late for cosy success; hit with another 8lb rise but in the form of his life and ground remains in his favour. |
