10st 7lb |
Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner last year (2m3f, good to yielding) returned from an absence with a solid third at Cork for new stable; found to be clinically abnormal at Kilbeggan latest when below-par; good chance if in full of her health; tongue tie on. |

Won a maiden hurdle over slightly further at this track last year for the late Kevin Prendergast; solid third at Cork on return; should have improved from that and be involved off the same mark. |

10st 4lb |
Flat maiden; won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 when with John McConnell; down the field in two runs for this stable; seemed to be well fancied for a similar race to this at Roscommon on the first occasion; blinkered now after a poor hurdle run. |

5th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 147y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
The winner of two of his six starts for this stable, most recently at Warwick (2m5f, good to soft) in March off 4lb lower, but didn't quite match that level when fourth (2m4f, good) at Plumpton last month; may need to find more but likely to be in the mix. |

7yo who has a fair bit of experience but has been progressive for a new yard this term, making it two wins from his last three runs (2m3f/2m5f, good/good to soft) when scoring at Warwick last time; entitled to respect. |

Dual Flat winner is only 1-18 over hurdles, but has put up solid runs the last twice at Downpatrick; the blinkers worn last time are retained and can be involved, but needs more to win. |
