27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Sole success came off 2lb lower at Roscommon (1m4f, yld-sft) in May; well held since and would probably prefer some cut in the ground. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 3m 0f 100y |
11st 11lb |
Four hurdle wins at different trips, most recently over 3m at Clonmel in November; respectable fourth here behind Ad Caleum last month but may not have been suited by tight Ballinrobe track latest; others with stronger claims. |
12/1 |

11th 2 |
26th May 2025 Good 2m 6f 131y |
11st 8lb |
Dual-purpose course winner; 9.25l behind Ad Caelum and Dartan at Kilbeggan latest, weakening after being hampered at the last; is 8lb above his last win but his yard is in form and he could go well dropped slightly back in trip. |

23rd Aug 2026 Good 1m 3f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Won over hurdles and on the Flat (12.5f) at Limerick last year; ran well over timber at Sligo on his penultimate start in a claimer but heavy defeat back on the Flat at Tramore (2m) on latest; well handicapped but needs to rebound back in trip. |
22/1 |

7th 1 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
10st 4lb |
Was in better form last year when winning at Limerick over hurdles and on the Flat (1m5f, good, rated 73); largely struggled in both codes since, although ran to his mark at Killarney last month when sixth (1m4f, good); took second in a Sligo claiming hurdle last time when well treated; others make more appeal. |

10st 2lb |
Won a Cork 3yo handicap last summer off 1lb lower for Joe Murphy (1m4f, good); pushed wide off the bend when a keeping-on fourth here on seasonal return (1m4f, good), Highway Sixty One 4.5l ahead; close fourth at Killarney next time and raised 3lb for her head defeat at Gowran eight days ago (1m5f, good), shaping like this trip was worth a try; new cheekpieces on. |

2lb lower than for last summer's win at Cork (1m4f) and wasn't far away 23 days ago at Killarney (second run in tongue-tie); thereabouts. |

Sole win came off 1lb lower at Down Royal (1m5f, good) last September; close third behind Anightaway and Eastern Wind at Sligo on latest and his good run over 1m5f here in June wasn't his first solid effort at this track (fourth in this last year); chance. |

9st 6lb |
Recorded his second 10.5f AW win in January and is rated 15lb higher on that surface; fine effort over just shy of this trip at Killarney last month, beaten half a length by in-form mare with Tassarolo a length behind him in third. |

Has won twice on AW; most recent success in January; 0-15 on turf; however, two runs this term not without promise but plenty more needed; tries a new trip. |

15th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 4lb |
Fine run on second handicap start at Fairyhouse in June (1m2f, good); tailed off at Down Royal on latest when favourite but soft ground may not have suited; 3yo surely capable of better than that and too soon to write off. |
8/1 |

9th 11 (5) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 96y |
8st 11lb |
A newly applied hood appeared to work the oracle at Fairyhouse last time (1m2f, good) when running his best race by far from five starts, beaten just a neck; 4lb rise for that seems a little harsh but chance if the hood continues its magic. |

AW winner is 0-14 on turf; fine run off 1lb lower over 1m5f (good) here in June but has failed to fire twice since; beaten 19l over 1m2f here on latest; step back up in trip needs to spark. |

Dual Flat winner but nothing since 2022; yet to score from 28 runs over hurdles; ran well over C&D in July when runner-up off this mark; pulled up over hurdles next time; he's better in this sphere, but long losing run drastically reduces his appeal. |
