11st 8lb |
Doubled his hurdles tally when successful by a neck at Roscommon last month (3m, good); rated 3lb below that winning mark over fences and he has placed on a couple of occasions from nine chase starts; one of the likelier candidates. |

Won a Punchestown handicap hurdle for Paul Nolan in 2024 off 90; 0-9 chasing for that yard but made the frame on several occasions; much improved display compared to stable debut when keeping on for third of 14 at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) last time. |

Maiden has been knocking on the door in recent starts; beaten 1l at Limerick (2m6f, soft) and a neck on latest at Roscommon (3m, good); nudged up 3lb, but this could be her day. |

0-18 (14 over hurdles) but went closer than ever at Limerick over 2m6f (soft) last time when beaten just 1l in second under today's rider; up 2lb but she's of definite interest. |

11st 8lb |
Faced a tough task in a maiden at the Galway festival; worth considering on a fair handicap run at Roscommon (beaten around 12l in third), but that was over 3m; hard to be sure if this trip will bring out the best in him; tongue-tie added. |

Improved efforts in final two maiden hurdles upon encountering good ground; rain-softened ground wasn't in his favour on handicap debut at Sligo (officially good) when fifth over an extended 2m4f; worth another chance on proper good ground. |

Maiden is in decent form; beaten just 5l when third at Kilbeggan on penultimate; weakened late into fourth at Roscommon (3m, good) on latest; worth another go at this trip on that evidence; place chance. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y |

Winless from 13 starts over hurdles but some good runs in defeat; bounced back from a poor Clonmel run at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding) when running on well to take third in the final strides; thereabouts off the same mark. |
6/1 |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |

0-17 but largely consistent in six starts in 2024 and 2025; was only beaten 1.5l into fourth off 4lb higher at Galway (3m, yld) in October; fell four out on return at Punchestown and weakened tamely at Clonmel last time; on a nice mark but needs more |

Steadily improving and good run when 1.5l second to Love Like This at Kilbeggan (3m, gd) last month; failed to back that up at Roscommon last time but strong claims if bouncing back in first-time cheekpieces. |

Best effort by far came on her third handicap start at Kilbeggan last time when a 1.5l runner-up (3m1f, good to yielding); that was positive and she's a player if she can keep it going. |

Dual hurdles winner in 2024, the second of them coming over this C&D (soft); has improved with each of her three runs this year and was a 6.5l third of ten at Listowel last time (3m, good to yielding); didn't travel with much verve that day but her mark is falling. |

Went closest to scoring when just denied in a Punchestown handicap over 2m in January (well-backed) on soft to heavy ground; raced keenly over 3m on return at the same track last month; 5-2 favourite at Clonmel last time but was a disappointing seventh; cheekpieces go on and Cobden rides for the first time so he must be respected. |
