24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Well backed on his stable debut at Nottingham in October (8.3f, heavy) but blew the start and finished tailed off; again slowly away when third over 1m2f back at Nottingham six days later; pulled up on hurdle debut 45 days ago; risky. |
10/1 |

29th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
11st 6lb |
He's struggled to get competitive for three different yards this year, despite tumbling in the weights; having only his second go for Ryan Potter today and finished 44l adrift six days ago when co-favourite here (1m, heavy) on first attempt for him, albeit after a slow start; not often seen over this far; it will be interesting to see if his backers return. |

Five-time winner including twice this season; stayed on well to see off Elusive Duke at Ballinrobe (9.5f, gd-yld) eight days ago (Loingseoir fourth) and raised 7lb; has gone well here before but very wide draw not ideal. |

Gained a first win for almost three years in a 1m Gowran handicap in April; failed to cut much ice in two efforts since; might just prefer it softer these days. |

12th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 100y |
9st 6lb |
Snapped lengthy losing run when landing 7.5f handicap at this track in April, beating Miss Americana by a short head; ran just okay off 4lb higher at Limerick since but dropped a further 2lb after; 3-7 here and enjoys soft ground so can't be dismissed. |

Seven-time turf winner won twice in July and ran a decent race on latest off this mark when a 3.75l fifth of 16 at Galway; has won off higher ratings in the past so not dismissed with in-form claimer taking off 5lb. |
15/2 |

5th 18 (6) |
1st Aug 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 180y |
9st 4lb |
Seven-time turf winner on a hat-trick after back to back wins at Navan (1m2f, good) and Killarney (11.5f, good); has gone up 11lb for those wins but she has won off higher marks in the past; however, was unplaced in the 5.40 here on Thursday. |

Ground-versatile sort has hit form lately, winning over 1m2f at Navan and carrying a 7lb penalty at Killarney over just short of this trip; up another 4lb but has run well in defeat at this track and looks a player. |

Listowel maiden winner had struggled in handicaps until much more encouraging comeback run at Bellewstown recently, only caught late over 1m after forcing it on heavy ground; drop back in trip could suit and likely major player. |

Frequent Wolverhampton winner who's 0-12 on turf, including in his Irish days (has 4lb lower mark than on the AW); very consistent, though, and should get the good pace he wants, so every chance he gets involved again. |
