10st 8lb |
Beaten around 7l in fifth when favourite at Ballinrobe last time; won at the same venue in July off 7lb lower than now; Cork run in between was too bad to be true; capable of making his presence felt. |

10st 9lb |
Was gaining a second win over hurdles when landing 2m3f Kilbeggan handicap last month (good); 0-11 on the Flat, although some decent efforts in the spring, albeit on softer ground; cheekpieces added here and not one to dismiss as clearly in good heart. |

Dual hurdles winner and has placed Flat form on turf; likes an ease, so first time on Polytrack is a query, but she's been handling better ground lately over jumps. |

Won a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle by 16l last summer (2m3f, good); put some underwhelming efforts behind her back at the scene of her win last time when a 3.75l runner-up (2m2f, good); can be hit or miss and up 2lb. |

Won a 2m1f Clonmel handicap in April off 91 back from a break; kept busy since; second over 2m1f at Wexford in July and fair third over 2m2f at Ballinrobe next time; bounced back from a poor Cork effort when a 5.25l seventh of 14 at Ballinrobe last time; could play a role. |

Off the track two years and progressed from Listowel reappearance to make late headway into fourth at Ballinrobe (2m1f, good) last month; unseated at first 15 days ago; chance if building on that Ballinrobe effort. |

Off the track for two years and caught the eye somewhat when fourth in a 2m1f Ballinrobe handicap hurdle last month; back up in trip here and interesting to see what the market makes of him. |

11st 2lb |
Won off 8lb lower at Cork in April (2m, yielding) on handicap debut; a few indifferent runs before coming back to form with a solid fourth at Ballinrobe in August; clear of the others when second in a five-runner contest at Ballinrobe later that month. |

Won off 8lb lower at Cork in April (2m, yielding); back to form with solid 2.25l fourth of 14 here over 16.5f (good) on latest; has weakened late on both previous starts at this sort of trip so stamina a concern. |

Shock winner at Cork in April (2m, yielding); mid-field off revised mark at Limerick later that month, when testing ground may not have suited; unplaced favourite in a novice contest at Downpatrick; moderate run at this venue last month, jumped untidily at times. |

Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; Galway fifth (2m, good to yielding) last October was best effort since joining this yard; should be better for his run at this track in May. |

Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle for Gordon Elliott in April 2024; no joy since but latest Galway fifth (2m, gd-yld) in October his best since joining this yard; dropped 3lb and sports a tongue-tie for return; could run into a place if fit. |

Much improved off lowly mark to win over 2m3f at Navan last month and followed up off 7lb higher at Gowran when made much more use of, fending off challengers over 2m4f; up another 6lb and upped in trip so more needed on what is likely to be softer ground. |

0-6 over hurdles and rated 94; good chance he'll make a chaser on breeding and in very good hands; market check advised. |

Showed glimpses of promise in maidens but has been poor in two handicap starts; can't be ruled out from this top yard but a tongue-tie will have to make a significant difference. |

Some promise in two maiden hurdles in 2024 but was disappointing when favourite on return at Tipperary early last season; pulled up on handicap debut last August; absent since; from a top stable, so not ruled out |

24th Jul 2026 Good 2m 2f 200y |

Has shown his best form at Clonmel but was pulled up there last month (2m1f, good); on the retreat when falling at the last at Ballinrobe last time (2m2f, good); blinkers go on now but recent form just moderate and this comes quick enough after his fall. |

Has shown his best form at Clonmel, but was pulled up at that venue on his most recent start; previous fourth at Limerick was no more than satisfactory. |
