16th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 40y |
9st 3lb |
Breakthrough win at Cork (1m, soft) on latest, outpaced before coming from the back to score by 0.5l; looked better the further he went so this longer trip should suit; this is harder but should go well again off 5lb higher if handles quicker ground (brother won on good to firm). |

3rd May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Promise in maidens last year at 7f-1m; left disappointing seasonal return behind to finish 1.75l behind Arctic Assassin at the Curragh (1m, soft) two weeks ago; should get closer on these terms; big chance. |

29th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 109y |
9st 3lb |
Twice beaten favourite in maidens following promising 2yo debut; more like it on handicap debut early this month when good second in Cork apprentice event over a mile; shapes as though this longer trip will suit. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (6) |
3rd May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Placed in two of three maidens; beaten 5.5l on debut when runner up at Navan (6f, soft) behind Charles Darwin; 3-1 favourite but faded when beaten 7.75l on seasonal return in a Gowran maiden (7f, soft); sharper for that and should get 1m on breeding; could go well on handicap debut. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 3 (8) |
8th Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
The best of two runs last year came on debut at Navan over 6f; seemed not to stay 7f 110yds at Roscommon next time; however, that was 11 months ago and will be a stronger horse now so this trip should be fine; a player. |

28th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up in Down Royal nursery for Johnny Murtagh and has returned with two solid efforts for current yard without convincingly staying the mile trip, at the Curragh and when weakening late at Cork, both times on soft; drop back in trip and better ground makes him a major player. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 5 (7) |
3rd May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Best effort last season a 1.5l second on handicap debut at Down Royal (7f, good); 4l behind Arctic Assassin on seasonal return at the Curragh; weighted to close the gap to that rival and should strip fitter but might prefer quicker ground. |
11/1 |

4th 5 (12) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y |

First of two nursery starts brought a promising second at Down Royal; faded in a 7f contest at this venue on final start; has changed stable but Ben Coen keeps the ride. |

19th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Lightly raced 3yo won 6f maiden here last September (yielding-to-soft) and has acquitted himself creditably in two handicap runs this season, latest when not quite getting home (rider dropped whip) over 1m in finishing fourth here early this month; down 2lb but remains 3lb out of handicap proper; don't rule out with drop to 7f to suit. |
11/2 |
|
4th 1 (11) |
3rd May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Course winner last season at 6f (yld-sft); respectable run in 1m Newcastle novice (AW) in February and pleasing return to turf on handicap debut at the Curragh two weeks ago (7f, soft); step back up to 1m a plus; cheekpieces retained; big player off 1lb lower. |
7/1 |

6th 15 (12) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 1lb |
Stepped forward to land a 6f Cork conditions event on his second start in September (yielding to soft); form of that had multiple boosts in behind; took time to settle at Newcastle when failing to justify favouritism last time (1m); cheekpieces go on and drop back in trip should suit. |

9st 8lb |
Promise in maidens last season, including when fourth of 16 over C&D (yielding); two maiden runs this term below that level and now switches to a handicap for the first time; yard in form and potentially well treated on the form of that C&D run last year; check the market. |
12/1 |

6th 11 (8) |
22nd Apr 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Three promising runs last year on yielding to good, beaten 3.5l into fourth behind dual Group 1 winner Precise at Cork in September over 1m; below that when beaten 7.5l into eighth on AW 47 days ago; chance if coming on for that; stable in form. |
7/1 |
|
8th 9 (15) |
6th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Midfield behind subsequent dual Group 1 winner Precise at Cork on debut in August before taking third at Gowran, both over 7f; finished a head off the now 93-rated River Ara when fourth at Cork (1m) in September; dam 1m AW winner; could take some beating on return despite wide draw. |

Didn't really count on recent handicap debut over a mile at Cork; longer trip may suit but lots to find with Harmani on that run; cheekpieces tried. |

3rd May 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |

Handicap debutante's best maiden run her latest at Leopardstown (1m, gd-yld) but was still beaten 11l; likely best watched here unless the market suggests otherwise. |

9st 2lb |
Modest form in maidens and similar story on handicap debut at Naas last September (1m, soft) when an 11l sixth of 16; met trouble in running when clipping heels and unseating on return at Limerick eight days ago; yard in form and too early to write off. |
16/1 |

25th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 50y |

Not a threat in three maidens; beaten 11l on handicap debut at Naas when last seen in September (1m, yielding to soft) but did receive a bump at a cruicial stage; down 3lb and could yet improve. |

9st 12lb |
Left ordinary maiden form behind to win a 1m Curragh handicap (soft) by 0.75l on seasonal return two weeks ago, beating a couple of these rivals in the process; 9lb rise partly negated by useful rider's 4lb claim; should go well again. |

Modest juvenile form; has a similar profile to stablemate Pass The Buck; gelded now, first time cheekpieces. |
