28th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 118y Class 3 |
11st 9lb |
Showed a good strike-rate (3-6) and proved fairly useful as a juvenile hurdler last term but has been absent since midfield finish in the Fred Winter; market may offer further guidance. |

11th Mar 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 1 |
11st 2lb |
Inferior Flat form to a few of these but he's making a name for himself over hurdles and has a similar profile to Quantock Hills (with whom he's closely matched on bare form), having looked on an upward curve until fading away in a Grade 2 here in January; that was his first time on soft ground (won on good and good to soft) so there's reason to believe he'll run better this time; the tongue-tie worn throughout over hurdles is joined by cheekpieces that he wore once on the Flat (finished sixth). |

25th Jan 2025 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Looked ordinary in two Flat runs but has been a revelation over hurdles, winning three of his four races, the first two for Joseph O'Brien; found plenty to force a dead-heat with Quantock Hills over C&D (good to soft; unraced on softer) last month; this is a stiffer task but he's hard to discount. |

1st Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 0lb |
0-14 on the Flat and 0-6 over hurdles when based in Ireland but was close third in 13-runner Cork handicap hurdle (2m4f, good) in May and will be hard to beat if somewhere near that form here; recently changed hands for 20,000euros; drops back in trip for stable debut. |

Dual-purpose; won a 2m2f maiden hurdle (good) here last September; placed in a Listed 4yo hurdle at Musselburgh in February before well beaten off 124 in the Fred Winter; modest efforts on Flat the last twice; has won on soft on the level; could prove to be the main danger. |

Just one win from 28 attempts, but has been knocking on the door in recent starts here; fourth over 10.5f in November before taking third spot next two times; squeezed out when one-paced upped in trip over C&D last time; this trip may not be his optimum. |

Dual-purpose; 1-10 over hurdles; good effort at big odds when a 4.5l fourth of 18 in the Imperial Cup at Sandown in March; didn't back that up at Fairyhouse on latest; would have a place chance with a repeat of that Sandown run. |

7th Mar 2026 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 2 |

Irish-trained 5yo who failed to threaten on his last two hurdle starts last autumn; however, a break may have helped and he was a close third of 15 at Galway (2m1f, good) last August; his maiden hurdle win came on yielding to soft; has an each-way shout if back on song; tongue-tie is left off. |
