21st Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 63y Class 5 |
11st 1lb |
Irish raider; reverts to hurdling after running reasonably well in a recent Downpatrick chase (2m7f, good) but has a modest strike-rate (1-23) and is very inconsistent; refitted visor replaces cheekpieces. |

9-1 when due to reappear from an absence here on Wednesday only to get loose before the start; 0-15 over hurdles and inconsistent in Ireland, but she ran the odd decent race there; not dismissed. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 6lb |
0-15 over hurdles and inconsistent when trained in Ireland but her second of 11 at Sligo (2m4f, good to yielding) in the autumn was a good effort; makes stable debut after 284-day absence; market may guide. |

Made a winning start over fences at Newcastle (2m7f) in October; has failed to build on it though and she unseated her rider at Hexham (3m) two weeks ago; has a bit to prove. |

Improved for being sent chasing last summer and landed a Roscommon handicap on his third start over fences when last seen 305 days ago, travelling powerfully before beating subsequent winner Hit The Frame by 2.75l; unexposed for an 8yo and big chance off 6lb higher mark if ready to go after absence. |

28th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 3m 0f 0y |

Goes very well at Downpatrick, so her latest run there behind Sneddy Eddie was out of character; beaten only a neck over 3m at Wexford last month and was third in last year's renewal of this. |

Consistent form this year before deserved second win over fences came in runaway fashion in 2m7f Killarney handicap last month; solid run off 9lb higher at same venue 8 days ago when a clear second to an improving sort; 2lb higher but definite player. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
10st 12lb |
Modest strike rate of 2-22 over fences but was on a real going day over C&D last time, blowing the field apart by 15l (good to yielding); up 9lb for that, but if he's in the same form he has a huge chance; overall record suggests that's no sure thing though. |

9yo maiden but has finished runner-up in three handicaps, two of them over C&D, in October 2024 and last year's edition of this race; chased home Midleton Rare at Bellewstown in April; poor form since, over fences last twice, but capable of bouncing back. |

0-20 at the age of nine, but broke a poor run of form back from a break when runner-up over 3m at Bellewstown in April (yielding); pulled up next time and was beaten 24l on his chasing debut at Downpatrick in a beginners' last time; others make more appeal. |
