8th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Used to make all but has become tactically versatile; all four wins have been at Chelmsford where he ran well from a wide draw 11 days ago; 0-6 on the AW here but three times a runner-up and much respected from stall 1. |

28th Aug 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 0lb |
Has been a trailblazer in the past, but showed he didn't have to lead when successful off this mark on his reappearance over C&D in May (all four wins here); should appreciate the return to this venue following three lesser efforts on turf and one for the shortlist despite the outside stall. |

Dual winner over this trip last season at Naas and Down Royal; gelded on the back of a couple of poor runs and return to 7f backfired at Fairyhouse on latest; questions to answer at this stage although handicapper quick to relent and 1lb below last winning mark now. |

Maiden has shaped promisingly in first two runs for this yard; beaten 2.25l at Cork (5f, good) and 4.25l when fourth of 19 at Naas (5f, good); same mark here and cheekpieces go on; considered but softer ground would be a query. |

Ran her best race on stable debut for a third trainer over 5f at Cork nine days ago when sent off the 11-4 favourite and keeping on late for second; that was a first run for 125 days, she's out again quickly but interesting if her supporters return. |

Won a Bellewstown handicap in October (5f, soft) off 2lb higher; running well in defeat this season, not least when runner-up behind her reopposing stablemate Dandy Land over C&D last time (good); 1.25l to find with that rival but better off at the weights; suited by softer. |
