11st 10lb |
Won a heavy ground maiden hurdle at Limerick last Christmas; runner-up in a juvenile handicap here in January; mid-division but not disgraced in the Boodles at Cheltenham; tame effort on final start before a break but worth considering given the stable's form. |

Now 0-15 over hurdles after a recent run; 1-16 on Flat, sole win on soft ground at Roscommon two seasons ago; good apprentice, place chance at best. |

Sole win came on the Flat at Roscommon (soft) two years ago; 0-14 over hurdles but has placed five times; good effort when third off this mark at Clonmel (2m4f, yielding) in April; back from a break after two okay Flat runs. |

Won on the Flat at Sligo earlier in the year and lots of decent runs in defeat since, mainly over hurdles; below form in that sphere at Listowel last time but one to consider back on the level. |

1-21 hurdles record is concerning; however, he has held his form well since winning on the Flat at Sligo in May; excellent run to take second in a valuable Galway festival event; similar display when runner-up at Cork only two days later; has had plenty of time to recover. |

Good novice hurdler who went down narrowly in the Boodles at Cheltenham in 2023; subsequent form was disappointing however, last seen when well held on the Flat in the Spring; good bit to find on ratings here. |

Ex-Joseph O'Brien; Group 3-placed third (of six) behind Luxembourg in 2022 Royal Whip; placed once from nine starts over hurdles; potentially interesting on first run for Enda Bolger. |

Dual-purpose maiden was third at Killarney over 1m3f on heavy before a respectable hurdle run at Cork; the blinkers worn then are replaced by cheekpieces today; has been disappointing overall but should have a big chance if showing his form on this surface. |

Not far behind Zarak The Brave in a juvenile maiden hurdle last season; failed to improve on that; returned from a year off to win at Thurles on first start for this stable; pulled a shoe and finished lame when favourite at Cork five weeks ago; every chance if fully recovered; trainer also runs Tranquil Sea. |

23rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 2f 135y |

Generally dependable this year, including when second in a Flat handicap at Limerick in June; has won two of her last four hurdle starts; could go well despite 7lb rise for Kilbeggan success. |

3rd Sep 2026 Good 2m 3f 0y |

Three decent runs since winning over C&D (gd-yld) in April off 8lb lower, two over hurdles and when second on the Flat at Limerick; ground may have been a bit lively back over hurdles at Ballinrobe latest; return to this C&D a plus, as is the forecast rain; chance. |

10th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 109y |

Took a long time to win a race over hurdles but has been in fine form in recent months; deserved her breakthrough win at Kilbeggan; suffered interference when chasing home an easy winner at Limerick; transferred her form to the Flat when second at 25-1 in a 1m4f contest at the same venue; good chance off a light weight. |
