27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Grade 2 bumper winner at Leopardstown the season before last, and third in the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at Punchestown; got off the mark over hurdles on fourth start at Fairyhouse; raced too keenly and paid the price when fading late into fifth in a novice contest at the Punchestown festival; capable of being in the mix in this company. |

Showed ability in bumpers last season for Pat Doyle; started this season well with an emphatic bumper win at Limerick in November on heavy; kept good company in two races in winners' bumpers for this stable (last of seven in Grade 2 at DRF); well held by Newbrook Diamond on the form of hurdles debut at Punchestown. |

Showed ability last season for Pat Doyle and successful return when making all for runaway win at Limerick in November on heavy; switched yards and again made plenty of use of but came up short over C&D at Christmas on better ground, albeit solid run; return to testing conditions should suit but this looks a tougher task again. |

May be flattered by mark of 123, which he got after chasing home a subsequent Grade 2 winner/Grade 1 runner-up at Cork; should come on from latest sixth at Fairyhouse which was his first run for four months; pedigree suggests this longer trip will suit. |

Third in a point-to-point at Dromahane last April; respectable fourth on hurdling/stable debut at Limerick; did best of the remainder in a Punchestown maiden dominated by the subsequent Royal Bond winner Koktail Brut and Colcannon; form of his Cork second to subsequent Grade 2 winner and Grade 1 second Kazanksy suggests he may cope with Colcannon now. |

Promise on debut in Listed Limerick bumper (2m, soft); stayed on for a 25l sixth of 25 in much stronger maiden than this at Naas (2m, yielding) in January; very disappointing at Fairyhouse latest, however; cheekpieces and tongue tie go on for first start on good ground (brother City Island won three times on good ground). |
