30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Modest 2-26 strike-rate and refused to race once in the autumn; however, he's often run well in competitive races, as when third of 19 at York (1m, good) last July and was hampered next time; creditable return for new yard at Redcar (first-time hood, cheekpieces now refitted) this month; involved. |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Successful twice (1m2f/1m) in Ireland earlier in his career; talented but failed to win in 14 starts for Iain Jardine, including refusing to race on his penultimate outing last year; it's possible a change of stable (same owner) could spark a revival but a watching brief is still the percentage call here; hooded first time. |

11th Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |

2-24 with both wins coming for Ger Lyons in Ireland (1m/1m2f); finished a close third of 19 behind Billyb here (1m, good) in July, but he refused to race at Ayr three weeks ago and has enough to prove after that. |

Has kept good company over hurdles since his last Flat run almost a year ago; that was in the Group 2 Curragh Cup; this is more realistic but he has plenty of weight. |

Has outrun his odds in graded company on a couple of occasions including this meeting last year when 3l behind Kargese; however, well held in Grade 2 at Fairyhouse last month and this is even tougher. |

Maiden after 8 starts has been generally consistent, including over 1m2.5f at Roscommon last time; visor worn then retained but will have to find a bit more for the longer trip. |

12th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Largely below par since scoring at Huntingdon (2m4f) last May but he wasn't disgraced when third of five in 2m2f Fontwell handicap last month; needs to build on it now. |
6/1 |

3rd 3 |
8th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 5 |
11st 10lb |
Three-time hurdle winner on good ground; arguably ran better than eventual 48l defeat suggests when third at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) last month, after a layoff, and has become well handicapped; could have a say if that recent outing brought him on. |
6/1 |
|
3rd 5 |
18th Mar 2026 Good 2m 3f 137y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won in a small field off 3lb higher at Huntingdon last May (2m3f) but mostly struggled afterwards in cheekpieces and latterly in a visor; clearly a form contender if he's all the better for a wind operation. |

11st 0lb |
Runner-up in two maidens over 7f/1m on the Flat for Michael Bell last year; creditable third on jumps debut at Killarney in July (2m, good) but poor effort on softer ground over C&D last time; cheekpieces tried; looks stable second string. |

25th Aug 2023 Good 2m 1f 0y |

Minor promise in Flat maidens in Britain; low-key run on the Flat on stable debut at Roscommon early last month; made a satisfactory hurdling debut when third at Killarney, splitting two of these rivals, Show No Fear and That's Jet; should improve a little |

Showed promise on sole start last year and made good on that when winning a Sligo maiden over 1m2.5f on return; is entitled to have improved from that run and take high rank today up in trip. |
