28th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 210y |
9st 7lb |
Eight career wins include twice here at 1m4f; probably needed recent Roscommon comeback run, more expected of here with ground in his favour. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |
8st 12lb |
Front-runner loves it here; won this last year and caught late when second over C&D in August; lack of a prep run is the concern, because his record fresh is not good. |

20th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 100y |
9st 10lb |
Bagged eighth career win at Roscommon in May (1m4f, good); back down to winning mark when a neck second back at that track on his penultimate run; underwhelming at Galway most recently when well behind (1m4f, soft); three of his wins have come at this distance but he may not appreciate the ground. |

20th Jan 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 33y |
11st 2lb |
Dual-purpose; 1-29 on Flat; 0-6 over hurdles; her sole Flat win came over three years ago, but she had fair form in 2025, including when second in a 1m5f handicap at this venue; well clear of the remainder when chasing home an easy winner at Tramore on New Year's Day. |
5/1 |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 6f 55y |
9st 10lb |
Record of 1-27 with her win coming three years ago doesn't inspire hugely, but she has been running well in defeat recently; beaten a head at Down Royal in first-time cheekpieces off 62 in July (1m5f, good); creditable runs at Galway and Killarney following that (a neck behind Ehteyat at Killarney); interesting. |
8/1 |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |

No win since 2022 but went agonisingly close to ending the drought at Down Royal last month (1m5f, good) in first-time cheekpieces; merit in Galway fourth since so remains of interest. |

20th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 107y |
11st 8lb |
Six-time winner over jumps (five of those coming over hurdles); getting on in years now, but holds a good chance on current form; not a bad effort on the Flat at Tramore before two decent handicap hurdle runs, third over 2m3f at Kilbeggan and second over 2m1f at Wexford. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 180y |

Six-time winner over jumps (five of those coming over hurdles); getting on in years now, but not a bad effort on the Flat at Tramore over 2m before a good third of 12 at Kilbeggan (2m3f, good to yielding); her last win in this discipline came last year off 105 at Navan (2m, heavy). |

Ran okay on the Flat 17 days ago and better known as a six-time winner over jumps; not as good as she was, though. |

11st 10lb |
Won three handicaps for previous yard and likes good ground; 1m6f Flat winner last year when her hurdles form wasn't great; has dropped down to last winning mark, but not a hectic record when fresh and last two wins have come in cheekpieces. |

Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Windsor in June (1m, good to firm); now 2lb lower but that is a result of having shown little since; handles Polytrack but others look safer. |

Three Class 5 C&D wins, the latest by a nose on penultimate start; ran respectably in a Class 2 C&D contest (fourth, 16-1) latest; likely to give his best, although others make more appeal. |

Flat recruit makes debut over hurdles for powerful yard; 1-11 on the level with a career best RPR of 83; well-beaten in first time tongue tie (retained) after 290 day absence at Galway (25-1); at least will strip fitter for that run and can never discount from this stable. |
