J: Josh Williamson

T: Gordon Elliott

Unbeaten from two starts since joining this yard; well-backed to win a Kilbeggan handicap in April (2m1f, good to yielding) and followed up with today's rider aboard at Clonmel next time; made to work harder to win last time and is up another 7lb, but this step up in trip could unlock a bit more.

J: Josh Williamson

T: Gordon Elliott

Best effort for Noel Kelly when second of 12 finishers (beaten favourite) over 2m4f at Fairyhouse in January; flopped when favourite at Ayr in March; justified good support when winning easily at Kilbeggan on first appearance for Gordon Elliott; raised by 9lb, but Josh Williamson's 5lb claim could help him to follow up.

J: Darragh O’Keeffe

T: Henry De Bromhead

Lightly raced 6yo showed definite ability in bumpers for Dermot McLoughlin, notably in decent Navan contest (soft-to-heavy); returned from over year's absence for current yard last month when hooded in 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle, staying on third behind an odds-on shot (soft); hood left off here but rates a major contender.

J: Darragh O’Keeffe

Beaten favourite on racecourse bow when runner-up to Marlacoo at Down Royal May 2024; failed to build on that next time but fared better when beaten 7.5l into fifth at Navan 410 days ago in a good bumper won by Copacabana; first-time hood on hurdles debut and horses from this yard typically improve for obstacles.

J: Brian Hayes

T: Andrew McNamara

A 69-rated Flat maiden; struggled to make an impression in juvenile hurdles last winter and was a rank outsider in the Triumph; came good in a maiden at Down Royal early this month; won readily and left an impression that he can continue on the upgrade on summer ground.

A 69-rated Flat maiden; the best of four hurdle runs when beaten 15l in a Naas Listed juvenile event; beaten a long way in the Triumph Hurdle since; can go well but others look stronger.
