14th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 7f 131y |
11st 12lb |
Dual-purpose; the best of these over hurdles (rated 143); no impact on first three starts for this yard in hot handicap hurdles; well beaten on sole previous chase start at Cork when with Gavin Cromwell but this much easier; wouldn't want it too soft. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Two wins apiece on the Flat and over hurdles during his time with Gavin Cromwell but well beaten in a big-field handicap on the Flat and over hurdles (behind a few of these at Dublin Racing Festival) since joining current yard; the refitting of blinkers needs to help spark a revival. |

Two wins apiece on the Flat and over hurdles; was poor on the Flat when last seen but has a shout if back to his best hurdle form; handles soft. |

25th Apr 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 2 |
10st 10lb |
Returned to form and rewarded heavy market support at Bangor (2m4f, good; tongue-tie refitted) last month, his fifth start for Dan Skelton; just a respectable sixth under penalty in the Red Rum at Aintree (2m, good to soft) nine days later and his mark is another 5lb higher here, but he remains very much of interest. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 2lb |
Well-backed, even-money favourite at Bangor (2m4f) last Tuesday, when reverting to good ground in a reapplied tongue-tie and returning to form with a convincing win; 9lb higher in a much hotter race today but not ruled out for his top yard on the back of that stylish success. |
9/1 |

1st 8 |
31st Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 72y Class 4 |
11st 5lb |
Maiden chaser and with an overall strike-rate of 2-32; he hasn't got anything going over fences for current yard but he's dropped sharply in the weights and getting back on good ground can only help; would be interesting if the market offered encouragement. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 1m 7f 176y Class 1 |
10st 11lb |
Won Wexford handicap (2m, good) last July on third chase start and returned to form when third of 20 at Leopardstown (2m1f, yielding) in December; needs a career best today but this unexposed 6yo represents a top Irish trainer (who saddles three) and could yet have more to offer. |

21st Aug 2025 Good 2m 1f 0y |
11st 7lb |
Won a Roscommon maiden hurdle last year and got off the mark over fences when scoring on handicap debut at Wexford over 2m; raised 7lb but is lightly-raced and has to be respected. |
7/4 |

23rd Jul 2025 Yielding To Soft 2m 0f 0y |
11st 12lb |
Lightly-raced 5yo; won a Roscommon maiden hurdle on rules debut last September (form franked) but well held twice afterwards; not fluent in chasing debut at Tipperary when well beaten; improved display at Tramore last time when still in contention but making a mistake at the last to finish third (horse in second has won since); can go well on handicap chase debut. |

1st Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 4f 17y |
9st 1lb |
Dual hurdle winner last year including here and is rated 135 in that sphere; looks well-in off a low Flat mark but was well beaten at Galway last time so has to do much more; cheekpieces might help. |

31st Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Dual hurdles winner last year on softish ground, most recently let down by jumping when raised in class in Grade 3 at Tipperary early this month; 0-5 on the Flat and hasn't convinced at this trip. |

3rd Jul 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 5lb |
2-3 over timber and too bad to be true when tailed off 5-4 favourite at Naas; big step forward required on return to action; now tried with tongue-tie debuting for new yard. |
