20th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Gained first win since his 2yo days when making all in a Class 6 over C&D last week (blinkered first time); unlikely to get a soft lead this time and a 5lb penalty against stronger opposition demands more in any case. |
4/1 |

1st 4 (5) |
13th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Won maiden claimer for Tony Mullins in August 2024 (1m, good); hasn't won since but a few fair runs for new yard, including when third at Carlisle in June (1m1f, soft); blinkers now tried; fast ground is a concern. |

Poor strike-rate but he ended 2025 in good form and he ran his best race of this campaign when third over 1m1f here last week; runs off the same mark and he is one to take seriously. |

Went close in a couple of maiden claimers last season; shaped like he may have needed his return to action; now tried with visor and gets weight off most. |

21st Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 1f 135y |

Not disgraced in maidens last year and went close in a pair of 1m claimers at Navan and Naas, both on good ground; off since 5l fourth at Dundalk in October and has been gelded; has the rating to figure (70) but may need the run. |

9st 11lb |
Joined Gavin Cromwell this year, making a lot of the running to win 1m2f soft-ground maiden at the Curragh but well held both starts since, out of depth in Group 3 and never counted after stumbling early in Sligo fillies' handicap; may yet do better but may want easier ground. |

Only had three runs for Gavin Cromwell, making a lot of the running to win a 1m2f soft-ground maiden at the Curragh before facing a tough task at Listed level; respected, for all that it's early in the year to be tackling older opposition. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Won a nursery at Bellewstown in first-time blinkers last October; needs to find top form again after two uninspiring Leopardstown runs during the summer. |

11th 18 (12) |
12th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |
8st 8lb |
Won on handicap debut at Bellewstown (1m, yielding) in first-time blinkers last October; raised 8lb for that and didn't appear to stay 1m2f on last month's seasonal return here behind a better-fancied stablemate when blinkers left off (again today). |

One of three for yard; won on handicap debut at Bellewstown (1m, yielding) in first-time blinkers last October; raised 8lb for that and the blinkers are left off for her seasonal reappearance; probably best watched upped in trip unless the money comes. |

7th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Won a classified event over C&D in March; not so good since but he has slipped in the weights and will be a danger to all if anywhere near his best. |
10/1 |

18th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finished down the field on Tapeta in his last two starts but he won a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton in March; has possibilities if he can recapture that form but this looks tough from a low draw and he's raced almost exclusively on AW since last January. |
12/1 |

2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |

Just about stays this far, but his best form including both wins (one here) has come over 6f; drawn widest. |

6th Aug 2025 Yielding 1m 5f 103y |
10st 1lb |
The best of three runs this term when beaten 9l in a Ballinrobe maiden last time over just short of 1m2f; a repeat of that on handicap debut up in trip would see him competitive. |
12/1 |
|
5th 7 (6) |
21st Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 1f 135y |

23rd Sep 2024 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Last of 12 in a maiden claimer at Navan; struggled off a low mark in a Down Royal nursery; cheekpieces replace blinkers worn last time; unlikely to feature. |
