9st 8lb |
Beat Methgal by a short head at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) to gain his second win from 29 starts; raised a fair 3lb for that but overall form suggests he's not certain to back it up. |

1st 14 (10) |
15th Apr 2026 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Record of 1-28 is off-putting; posted an excellent display from 6lb outside the handicap at Naas on seasonal return when second of 15; let favourite backers down at Navan next time when never better than midfield; hard to trust. |
6/1 |

1-27 record is off-putting but potentially interesting now after an excellent display from 6lb out of the handicap at Naas on his seasonal debut; kept on well to challenge the well-fancied winner Noble Nation with a useful yardstick in third; this track is similar in character to Naas. |

First reserve; made the breakthrough in a 7f Dundalk handicap in March and followed that with runner-up finishes over the same trip back at Dundalk and on turf at Leopardstown (yielding to soft); below his best at the Curragh last time. |

Made the breakthrough in a 7f Dundalk handicap in March for this rider; runner-up on his next start and maintained the improvement when second at Leopardstown 19 days ago, beaten a short head after making most; strong chance. |

Made the breakthrough in a 7f Dundalk handicap last month off 55 under a 7lb claimer and good effort to take second off this mark next time; in good form and capable if bringing his best to turf. |

Both wins came as a juvenile for Charlie Hills at 5f/7f on different ground types; has plunged in the ratings and took third (0.5l behind Exceeding) at Leopardstown (7f, yielding to soft) in April; unplaced favourite at Gowran next time, but took the runner-up spot at Roscommon (7.5f, good to yielding); in the mix. |

Both wins came as a juvenile for Charlie Hills at 5f/7f on different ground types; has plunged in the ratings and profited from a drop in grade when third at Leopardstown on his penultimate start; unplaced favourite at Gowran last time. |

Both wins came as a juvenile for Charlie Hills at 5f/7f on different ground types; has plunged in the ratings and profited from a drop to this grade when third at Leopardstown last week; likely contender with Reese Holohan's useful 7lb a help in easing his burden. |

Veteran has shaped very nicely the last twice at Leopardstown (7f, yld-sft) and Roscommon (7.5f, good); close third off 3lb higher over C&D last summer; big chance with the step back up to 1m sure to suit. |

Signs of progress on handicap debut at Leopardstown (7f) where she was never closer than in the finish; can probably improve again if overcoming her wide stall. |

Outran 125-1 odds on her third maiden start at Tipperary last May (7f, yielding to soft) when a distant third of 12; makes handicap debut now but it doesn't look like the handicapper has taken any chances. |

Improver this year, all three wins under this rider, most recently over extended 7f at Roscommon last month, coming home strongly after being switched to the outer in straight; hit with a 10lb rise for that however and upped in grade now; not sure the drop in trip will suit. |
15/2 |

1st 1 (4) |
11th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |
10st 2lb |
Placed just twice from her first 16 starts but has improved, winning twice under this rider including by 3l over 7f at Gowran last month; the runner-up bolted up over 1m at same track six days ago, when this filly found herself too far back after a tardy start, keeping on late; should come home well if not too free down the hill here. |
5/1 |

Gained just second win from 39 starts when springing 50-1 shock in 7f course claimer in December; creditable efforts in two handicaps here since for new yard; below best on softish ground at Leopardstown eight days ago but player back on this surface. |

No wins from 21 races; sent off the 9-2 favourite at Gowran for stable debut under today's rider but weakened inside the final furlong to finish sixth of 16; perhaps capable of more with that run under his belt considering his strength in the market that day. |
