19th Oct 2025 Good 2m 3f 50y |
11st 7lb |
Maiden hurdle winner last year disappointed in that sphere at Galway and tried chasing at Tramore; was a respectable third over 2m6f behind a now 128-rated rival; still needs to improve. |

Runner-up on all four bumper starts; won a maiden hurdle by 10l at Kilbeggan last September; runner-up on handicap at Listowel festival; after a break, possibly needed the race at Killarney last month; pulled up at Galway; no chasing experience. |

Tailed off here last October on final start in 2024; had been on an upward curve previously, winning a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan and finishing runner-up at Listowel; possibly needed the race when fourth to Greatness Awaits at Killarney; improvement likely. |

0-10 over timber but has placed six times in maiden hurdles; sole handicap start came at Musselburgh in February and was soundly beaten; similar outcome in Tramore maiden hurdle latest; others appeal more. |

Irish maiden who has plenty of placed form but lacks recent match practice, having been absent since November 2024; market may prove best guide to expectations; handicap debut. |

0-8 under rules; third in a couple of Irish points in October; unseated early on in race won by Scairp Dubh over C&D 17 days ago on stable debut; needs a completion in order to assess. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |

Creditable third in an Irish point in October (3m, good to yielding; second has won twice since) but previous rules form only modest; worth a market check on stable debut. |

11st 9lb |
Flat/hurdles winner; ran encouragingly on his return to chasing but has failed to back up that effort in two starts since, taking record in this sphere to 0-8; admittedly well treated on best form. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 3m 1f 107y Class 5 |

Posted best effort for these connections when third at Sedgefield in April (2m5f, good), before appearing to find it harder work last time; mixed record over stayers' trips, and would appreciate the ground drying out. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 5 |

Both hurdles wins (one at today's trip) came on sound surfaces last year, and April's staying-on Sedgefield chase third (2m5f, good) is his best effort to date for current connections; coming to the boil again. |

Landed a Wexford handicap chase (3m1f, good) off 7lb lower in August; still leading when fell at the eleventh at Punchestown when last seen in October (2m7f, good to yielding); absence to overcome but player if that doesn't pose problems. |

A respectable if well-beaten runner-up on debut in 2m Naas maiden in late 2022 but nowhere near that level since in light campaign, none too fluent at Fairyhouse last time; handicap debut but may need more time. |

Big-field Fairyhouse handicap hurdle winner on New Year's Day 2025 off 1lb higher (3m1f, yielding to soft); well beaten in final starts for Liam Cusack, but his fourth at Punchestown on stable debut was a positive (2m7f, heavy); 100-30 favourite at Downpatrick last time but was never travelling; questions to answer now. |
