7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
Seven-time winner over hurdles/fences; won twice at this venue last July; likely to show the benefit of a recent hurdles run at Limerick; noteworthy on account of his ability to handle the track; good chance with a top claimer aboard. |
6/1 |
|
6th 5 |
16th Apr 2026 Soft 2m 5f 100y |
10st 9lb |
Seven-time winner over hurdles/fences and hasn't been out of the first three in his last six starts around here; three wins over fences last year; disappointing favourite over hurdles at Cork but returns from a break racing from 14lb lower hurdles mark; should go well. |
3/1 |

2nd Nov 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
10st 12lb |
Winner of seven races including three this year; those three wins have come in handicap chases, including a 3l victory at Limerick (2m3f, yld-sft) on latest off 109; rated 103 in this sphere and 2m is fine so can't be discounted on return to hurdling. |

21st May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 176y |
10st 10lb |
Wexford handicap hurdle winner (2m1f, soft) for Brendan Walsh in 2024 off 87; beaten a short head in a five-runner contest at Catterick (2m, good to soft) on final start for Gavin Cromwell in December; creditable runs in defeat in both starts for new yard, distant third at Killarney last time; not ruled out. |

3rd 12 |
11th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 100y |

Had five runs over fences for Gavin Cromwell, just denied over 1m7f at Catterick in December; ran okay back from a break over hurdles on last month's stable debut. |

6th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |

Fair performer in handicap hurdles for Brendan Walsh, winning off 87 at Wexford in 2024; had five runs over fences for Gavin Cromwell, just denied in two-miler at Catterick in December; off since and new trainer fits cheekpieces insted of blinkers. |

31st Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 70y |

Two-time winner has failed to complete all four starts since returning from a 496 day layoff; on last winning mark now but a risky proposition. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 7f 165y |

Dual winning hurdler has returned from a 496-day break with letters representing her three form figures since; pulled up at Punchestown before falling here when in midfield (2m5f, yielding to soft); pulled up again at Punchestown last time; best watched for the moment. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 155y |

Dual-purpose; 1-15 over hurdles and rated 99; not many positives to glean from two starts over fences; others preferred. |

23rd May 2025 Good 2m 2f 185y |

Hasn't taken to fences the last twice but those were after some underwhelming runs on the Flat and over hurdles; bit to prove right now. |

Won over C&D in August on good ground; poor run at Listowel next time but a fine run at Killarney since even though he finished lame; should be a player again. |

1st Oct 2023 Yielding 2m 6f 180y |

18th Sep 2023 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Veteran mare has tended to reserve her best form for Wexford; poor recent chase run there dents any confidence; new headgear combination at the age of 12. |

Ex-Irish 8yo; ran big race from the front when close fourth over C&D (good) on stable debut in October but was beaten when falling on next outing and was pulled up when last in action; needs to have been refreshed by 139-day break. |
