2nd May 2026 Yielding 2m 4f 118y |
11st 9lb |
Won Grade 1 Juvenile at the DRF last season; below best first three starts this season but better effort when a 7.5l third of 18 in Listed handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse latest (2m, yld-sft); same mark here but stamina to prove for this longer trip. |

4th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Grade 1-winning juvenile hurdler last season; sustained an injury over the summer and has posted decent RPR's in three defeats since returning at Christmas, latest when 10th of 23 in County Hurdle after not clear run (only 1l behind Karbau); more needed but don't rule out. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 6lb |
This useful Flat performer was a Grade 1-winning juvenile hurdler last season; sustained an injury over the summer but there's been enough in two comeback runs at Leopardstown this winter (seventh to Bowensonfire in handicap latest) to think he retains his ability; not discounted. |

12th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Progressive handicapper at this trip, winning at Tipperary and just denied at Galway; had earlier run well in Roscommon Listed but below best on soft at Galway latest; return to better ground to suit and one to consider. |
8/1 |

6th 2 (6) |
9th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Progressive type at this trip, winning Tipperary handicap in April, good second in Roscommon Listed and just denied in premier handicap over C&D early last month, coming home strongly on yielding; should hold her own back in Listed class with ground okay. |
13/2 |

1st Aug 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
11lb higher than for her handicap win at Tipperary in April (1m4f, yielding) but nearly won a Listed race last time at Roscommon (1m4f); did get floored by the 125-1 outsider but it was still a notable effort; in the mix. |

13th Jul 2025 Good 2m 1f 90y |
11st 7lb |
Rated 73 on the Flat and a three-time winner in that sphere; good second on seasonal return in a Cork maiden hurdle (2m1f, good); promise in his two Flat runs following that; one of the main players. |

5th Jun 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Three-time Flat winner over 1m1f on a sound surface; third of five behind subsequent Grade 1-winning hurdler Hello Neighbour on last Flat 2024 start at Roscommon; runner-up in a maiden hurdle at Cork last month on first run after a break; same placing on the Flat at Naas eight days later; has an edge over Instant Appeal; strong chance. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 77y |
10st 2lb |
Career-best success at Leopardstown (1m2f, good) on return but beaten favourite at the Curragh when ninth of 19 and failed to beat a rival back at Leopardstown since; off 84 days and any market support worth noting returning to this trip. |
11/4 |

12th 3 (2) |
10th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Tipperary maiden winner last year; returned from a break to win easily at this track in April (1m2f, good); raised 8lb and didn't back it up last time at the Curragh; he is still of interest returned to the scene of his win. |
10/1 |

9th 6 (12) |
24th May 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Tipperary maiden winner a year ago and went close on handicap debut at the Galway festival; form dipped subsequently but returned with a facile Leopardstown success on first run since a gelding procedure and an 8lb rise is fair; may come on for that run and has to be high on the shortlist. |

22nd Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 0y |

Won 7f Galway maiden last year; regressive this term; unappealing despite career-low mark; well held by Racing Royalty on Galway running. |

9th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Won a C&D maiden last year on yielding; has struggled in handicaps since then, but had no luck in running last time in C&D event in which Goldrush Kid was second; cheekpieces now; not a lost cause. |

2nd Aug 2025 Soft 0m 7f 0y |

Won a C&D maiden last year (yielding); has struggled in handicaps since then; well beaten at the Curragh last time (1m, good); maybe the return to this track will spark something. |
