27th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 96y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Has won here twice already this month, taking his course record to 112311; all those races were over the extended 1m, so this race asks a slightly different question but he grabbed control well over 1f out last time, is back in career-best form and highly respected. |

12th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Prevailed by half a length last week, taking C&D record to 11231; successful in this race for the last two years and commands respect, even under a 4lb penalty, kept to his ideal scenario. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Acts on good to firm and soft ground; overall record of 3-38 but his last two wins have come over C&D and he returned to form with a front-running third here 11 days ago; remains well handicapped off 2lb lower than for his last success and he could make another bold bid. |

31st May 2026 Good 2m 0f 59y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
Won a low-grade Flat handicap last summer but has modest record over hurdles and was well beaten at Taunton (2m, good) last month, after a layoff; might be aided by refitted cheekpieces on this chasing debut but is not bred for fences; risky. |
14/1 |

9th 2 |
22nd Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 104y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Won over a mile on the Flat last summer but has yet to transfer that ability to hurdles, last seen pulling up at Plumpton (2m, good to soft) in October on handicap hurdle debut; returns from a 184-day break off 3lb lower, but still with a bit to prove. |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
Won on the Flat this summer (wore cheeklpieces) and belied 66-1 odds when fourth in Stratford maiden hurdle (2m, good; no headgear) last month; well beaten on recent handicap hurdle debut, though, and difficult to enthuse over after that performance; cheekpieces refitted. |

9st 11lb |
Twice second for this yard after being acquired from a claimer last summer; went close over this trip at the Curragh in October; never involved on her comeback there over 7f; needs to bounce back after a below-par run at Sligo; hooded now. |

Twice second for this yard after being acquired from a claimer last summer, including a near-miss over 1m at the Curragh in October; never involved on her comeback there over 7f; up in grade and was well beaten in this two years ago; headgear. |

Runs well when fresh, second at this venue on her first start of the 2024 season and won a claimer on seasonal debut last year; worth considering on the form of her final two starts of the campaign. |

20th Jul 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Three-time winner at this venue in handicaps at 7f-1m on good and soft ground; saw out 1m2f well when a 1.5l second over C&D in the Northfields premier handicap last season; just missed black type when fourth in a Listed at Navan (1m, good) on penultimate; rated 94 so unlikely winner but could challenge for a place. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Last year's winner off 76; Good runs here include second in a premier handicap last September (1m2f, good); easily won from a 5lb lower mark here in March (1m, soft); outran odds of 66-1 in a Navan Listed event when 3.25l fourth of 12 last time; likeable sort. |

Fourth in the Lincoln on return; produced career-best when easily winning Curragh handicap (1m, soft) next time off 90; made little impression in two handicap starts since, although had a troubled passage on latest; tall order in this company. |

Unplaced in nine starts and seemingly regressive in handicaps but more encouraging run at Leopardstown last month when fifth of 21 (beaten roughly 4l); wide draw not ideal but place claims in new headgear combination. |

18th Jul 2023 Yielding 1m 0f 30y |

Not a factor on debut in a bumper here in May; unusual prep for a 1m Flat maiden; hard to assess but cost E100,000 as a yearling and bred to be much more at home in this sort of race. |

Sixth foal; half-brother to useful 1m winner Qatar Dream; dam 6f-9.5f winner including runner-up in the French 1000 Guineas; half-sister to listed winners over 1m3f and 1m2f; very well bred candidate for top Flat trainer; fascinating that he is starting out in a bumper and is a player. |
