13th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 7lb |
Placed twice over hurdles two seasons ago; moderate form over fences until much improved when second at Wexford in March on her stable debut; was well backed then, and recovered losses when even-money favourite at Tramor last month; excellent chance off a similarly low hurdles mark; stable in form. |
7/4 |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
10st 3lb |
Produced her best handicap run to date on stable debut in a Wexford chase (19.5f, soft) on latest when attracting market support; 3lb higher now but this shorter trip should suit on that evidence; chance. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
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 |

4th 4 |
26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 188y |
11st 8lb |
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. |

13th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 0y |
10st 13lb
|
First reserve; veteran is a four-time winner; consistent efforts over hurdles at Limerick and Tramore; 3m1f at Cork last time likely stretched him and this trip may do so again. |
|
|
6th 8 |
10th May 2026 Good 3m 0f 80y |
10st 13lb |
Veteran is a four-time winner; last win came here over 2m (yld-sft) in November;has mixed hurdling and chasing to no avail since and never won beyond 2m4f; others preferred. |
8/1 |
|
4th 5 |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
11st 0lb |
Veteran won in fine style over hurdles at Cork (2m, yld-sft) in November; however, he has a strike rate of 1-30 in chases and his last three runs in this sphere have not been encouraging. |

29th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 145y |
10st 3lb |
Impressive handicap chase win at Limerick on latest (22.5f, good); now looks to exploit 12lb lower hurdles mark but hasn't won in this sphere since September 2023; in form, though, and can't discount. |
3/1 |

1st 11 |
21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
10st 5lb |
Second runner for yard; 1-17 over hurdles and extended record to 0-22 over fences on latest at Tramore (2m), jumping mistakes proving costly but beaten only 4l; longer trip not an issue. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Two wins over hurdles in 2019 but nothing since and his recent Cork fourth (2m1f, yielding) was a pretty remote one; 10lb higher mark in this sphere and others make more appeal. |
11/1 |

4th 9 |
19th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 20y |
11st 6lb |
Veteran has a record of 2-26 over hurdles; lost his way for John Hayes in 2024; no run under rules for 615 days; never a factor in two point starts in November; new trainer. |

12th Jul 2024 Good 3m 0f 180y |

Once a useful sort but has been soundly beaten when last seen over hurdles and also on the Flat recently; others appeal more. |

Maiden; yet to deliver on promise shown in 3yo hurdles in 2024; badly out off form over fences and hurdles in 2026; not easy to make a case for. |

14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |

Promise as a 3yo hurdler but mixing hurdles and fences of late to no avail; now 17lb below her opening mark. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 6f 160y |
10st 0lb |
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. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 154y |

Took a step forward in a 2m3f handicap hurdle at Clonmel (soft) on latest, outpaced and rallying for a 7l third; way below that level over fences at Tramore last time (2m, yielding). |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |

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. |

Veteran; five-time chase winner including three over C&D; last won here last August off 99 and 3lb lower now; recent efforts have been underwhelming, however, and blinkers are reached for. |

6th 10 (14) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 4lb |
Old boy has won 12 races in all under both codes, mostly from the front; C&D winner in 2024 and was placed over 1m4f last year, but he's pushing on now and tailed off over fences last time. |
20/1 |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |

Veteran pulled up on first start for this yard at Clonmel in December but has a fine record here (four wins, three over fences) and is just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D last August; ground versatile and can't discount. |
