Fourth in handicaps at Clonmel (extended 2m) and when favourite over extended 2m4f here last month; no extra in straight then, and drop back in trip might help. |

Posted some okay efforts in maiden hurdles last summer; tailed off on handicap/stable debut in May, but much better at Clonmel when a 3.5l fourth (2m1f, good); shaped like a return to this sort of trip would suit better that day. |

Sole Flat win in Roscommon maiden (1m4f, soft) in May 2024; 1-19 over hurdles, that win gained when making all to score decisively at Kilbeggan in April; second in course handicap hurdle on latest but tough mark back on Flat. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 200y |
10st 1lb |
In good form; runner up here over 21.5f (soft); breakthrough win on latest at Kilbeggan (2m3f, gd-yld), making all to score decisively by 8l; raised 8lb but should make another bold bid; big player. |
6/4 |
Betting Forcast
12/1 Long Gone, 10/1 Secret Rock, 7/1 Figero, 8/1 Go To Town, 8/1 Ripsnorter, 12/1 Houndsworth, 16/1 Fremantle Doctor, 8/1 Le Diablo, 20/1 Atlantic Gamble, 33/1 Final Decision, 4/1 Koeur A Prendre, 33/1 Brave Crogha, 10/1 Theanniversary Man, 7/2 Chemdawg
Verdict
The McKiernan stable struck on the Flat last week and can score here with CHEMDAWG who transferred her useful hurdles form to the Flat with a good second at Limerick in June. An obvious danger is the Mark Molloy-trained Koeur A Prendre, runner-up on both handicap hurdle starts. Ripsnorter is a possibility in his first handicap. Go To Town has a solid chance if forgiven last week’s Sligo run. [Alan Sweetman]
