24th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 51y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Took this in good style 12 months ago; lightly raced since but advanced his form after nine months off when second of ten in 2m1f handicap at Killarney 15 days ago; up 4lb here but this Irish challenger rates a player. |

Five hurdle wins came on goodish ground at 2m-2m4; last success came when 10l in front at Kelso last May; not at his best at Stratford next time, nor on the Flat at Galway when last seen; has won after a break before. |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 170y |
10st 13lb |
Dual-purpose maiden had been placed over hurdles for Gordon Elliott but has been poor in two starts for this yard (both here) and needs improvement on her best form anyway. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 12lb |
A long-standing 32-race maiden who has proved frustrating but consistent, finishing runner-up 13 times; 12 chase runs, beaten 5l into fifth at Wexford eight days ago in handicap off 112; one of his best efforts came over this C&D last year; capable of winning a contest of this nature. |
7/1 |

7th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Long-standing maiden; has run well in defeat over fences and hurdles, including runner-up in 2m2f Cork handicap chase, most recently beaten under 2l when fifth of 8 in steadily-run 2m Tramore novice handicap chase last month; ground to suit and definite contender. |
13/2 |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |
11st 7lb |
Long-standing maiden; has run well in defeat over fences and hurdles; heavy ground a valid excuse on latest and is 4lb lower than when a 9l runner up in a much stronger race than this at Cork (17.5f, good) in October; has run well here before and he's a player. |

Modest hurdles form but some improvement when making some late headway in a 1m2f maiden here last week; could get into the frame. |

10th Jan 2025 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
9st 10lb |
Beaten roughly 3l in a claimer on debut for Ger Lyons but shown little on the Flat or over timber since and this is a tough assignment. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 77y |

25-race maiden; one of his better efforts when fourth of 14 at Down Royal last month; needs to prove himself on slower ground. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 5 |
11st 9lb |
Seemingly aided by first-time visor when winning basement-grade AW race in February but was below that form on latest Flat start, and this is his first hurdle run since he was pulled up here (2m4f, good) on handicap debut last June; no headgear today; others have more pressing claims. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Finally off the mark when beating Desiderata at Wolverhampton a month ago; always in the right place in a messy affair (first-time visor) that night and history suggests he's no good thing to reproduce the effort. |

Beaten out of sight in three runs on the Flat, including a maiden claimer at Bellewstown this month; impossible to recommend on his hurdling debut on what he's shown to date. |
