9st 2lb |
Nursery winner last season; has repeatedly struggled in Group/Listed races; lowest-rated of three runners for her stable; makes no appeal. |

9st 2lb |
Won a 6f Fairyhouse nursery last year but hasn't added to that tally this term; looks the yard's second-string and has a fair bit to find. |

Superb pedigree; ordinary juvenile form, winning Fairyhouse nursery; second in a handicap early this season; modest form in Listed races on her last three starts; no apparent chance in this grade |

11th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 18y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Exposed and frustrating maiden for Amanda Perrett but regularly ran well in stronger races than this; promising stable debut at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) last week, keeping on for a close third; one of the likelier types. |
7/2 |

9st 2lb |
24-race maiden, absent since three midfield finishes on Lingfield Polytrack (5f-6f) for Amanda Perrett in December; changed hands for 10,000gns in January; makes stable debut from workable mark. |

0-18 but down in the weights and ran creditably over C&D in a stronger race two weeks ago; others still appeal more for win purposes. |

Five-time winner; scored in the Joe McGrath handicap at the Curragh (5f, yld-sft) last September off 83; excellent 1.5l second of 10 in listed heat at Naas on latest (5f, good), splitting 110 and 104 rated rivals; has won twice over 6f; dangerous to dismiss. |

9th Oct 2024 Good 0m 5f 180y |
9st 9lb |
Best effort came in second maiden here in June (5f, good); recent handicap debut at Fairyhouse was okay but plenty to find with Gazelle d'Or on that run. |
10/1 |
|
4th 6 (1) |
23rd Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
8st 12lb |
Best effort came in second maiden run at Navan (5f, good) when beaten 4.75l; last sighted finishing thirteenth of 21 in the Ballyhane Stakes, 5l behind Gazelle d'Or; better off at the weights with that rival on handicap debut but is probably best watched unless strong in the betting. |

18th Oct 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Won under a 10lb claimer at the Curragh (7f, good) in August; didn't seem to handle the drop back to 6f when fifth at Fairyhouse last month; should handle the Polytrack but tough task at the weights. |
18/1 |

23rd Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Promise in all three maidens and off the mark at the second attempt in handicaps under this 10lb claimer at the Curragh (7f, good); up 7lb for that but should continue to be competitive off his revised rating; obvious chance if handling this drop back in trip. |

28th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Won over 7f here (sft-hvy) on return from long layoff in March; raised 15lb and beaten a nose in follow up bid here (7f, soft) in April; beaten 4.75l into fourth upped to 1m at Naas on latest (1m, good) when 1l behind Far From Dandy; 2lb wrong and may need it softer than this. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Returned from a 493-day absence over 7f at the Curragh when comfortably winning a 23-runner contest (soft to heavy); almost followed up off 15lb higher back there next time, when hampered before finishing strongly to lose out by a head; up another 3lb, but he's thriving and a definite chance if handling this better ground and step up in trip. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 11 (9) |
19th Apr 2026 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Winless from five starts for Emmet Mullins in 2024 but returned from a 493-day absence over C&D last month when pulverising the 23-runner field (soft to heavy); handicapper hasn't missed him, handing a whopping 15lb rise; but big chance of going in again with softer ground to suit. |

23rd Sep 2024 Good 0m 6f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Makes her handicap debut after three underwhelming runs in maidens at 5f to 7.5f; may need more time and is 18lb wrong at the weights; hard to make a case for. |

10th 4 (8) |
26th Jun 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Too keen over an extended 7f at Roscommon; no impact over 5f at Navan; can be ruled out. |
