22nd Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 80y |
10st 6lb |
Had a couple of these behind when a close second in a C&D handicap in July; failed to see out his race at Galway since but certainly respected on that previous course form. |

29th Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 0y |

Won over fences here in October (2m6f) and followed up in a handicap hurdle at Limerick (3m); encouraging return from a break when going close at Killarney 12 days ago and he's in the mix. |

First reserve; three hurdle wins have been at Limerick but also won 2m5f handicap chase here last summer; absent since pulled up over fences at Limerick's Christmas meeting so may need this. |

20th Aug 2026 Good 2m 7f 100y |
11st 1lb |
Fine run in a 2m3f Listowel beginners' on penultimate when a close runner-up; didn't back it up over C&D last time when beaten 26l; 1lb drop not enough to tempt. |

17th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y |

Sole career win came at Listowel over hurdles in September (2m6f, good to yielding); okay chase debut in a handicap here (2m5f, good to yielding) in May and improved on that when beaten just half a length back at Listowel last time in a beginners' (2m3f, yielding); this trip looks more suitable and she's in the mix. |

Stays well; gave a stout hurdles performance when scoring over 3m at Galway in October; beaten in excess of 20l in her most recent three races; 90-rated hurdler may struggle over this trip on chase debut. |

2nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 7f 55y |
10st 10lb |
Maiden hurdler with uneven form; definite player judged on runner-up finishes at Limerick and Punchestown this season; the form of the latter has worked out well as the third Live To Laugh has won twice since; ran below market expectations at Limerick three weeks ago but big player if he takes to fences. |

12th Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 6f 170y |

Maiden with uneven form. second here in November (3m, heavy); next run here not at the same level and then unseated at Thurles; confirmed a liking for a stamina test when second over 3m at Naas last week; can pick up a race at some stage. |

5th Feb 2026 Soft 2m 6f 195y |

Trip and ground will be fine as it was 3m on heavy when second of 12 at Limerick two runs back; his following run there wasn't up to the same level but has a big run in him. |

Punchestown handicap hurdle win in December (3m, heavy) is her sole success in 30 runs; not the most consistent mare but she stays well and has a definite chance on her best form. |

Punchestown win in December (3m, heavy) is her sole success in 29 runs under rules; put a blot on her record at Gowran in January; much more like it when second at Thurles (2m7f, soft) last month; shortlisted. |

Went close at Down Royal (3m1f, good to yielding) off 2lb lower in Oct' but failed to build on that in two runs on soft afterwards; made a promising seasonal return at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding) when a 7.75l fifth of 14; pulled up at Roscommon last time; blinkers go on now. |

Went close at Down Royal (3m, good) off this mark in October but failed to build on that in two runs afterwards on soft; more promising was her return at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding) when a 7.75l fifth of 14 back from a break; 6.25l behind Katie's Casper that day but entitled to improve over that seasonal return. |

Battled to gain a first win when successful over hurdles at Limerick in December off 84 (2m6f, soft to heavy); tailed off at Punchestown next time; bounced back when runner-up back at Limerick last time (2m7f, heavy), had Mickey Hulie 17l behind in third that day; best form on softer. |

21st Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 4f 50y |
10st 9lb |
Came good here when an easy 9l winner over hurdles last month (2m4f, soft); sent chasing at Down Royal (2m4, yielding to soft) to take advantage of lower mark and landed the odds by 0.5l; must now run from 17lb revised mark, which makes things a lot tougher. |

Maiden is in decent form; beaten just 5l when third at Kilbeggan on penultimate; weakened late into fourth at Roscommon (3m, good) on latest; worth another go at this trip on that evidence; place chance. |

6th Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 180y |

Winless from 13 starts over hurdles but some good runs in defeat; bounced back from a poor Clonmel run at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding) when running on well to take third in the final strides; thereabouts off the same mark. |

15th Jun 2026 Yielding To Soft 3m 0f 100y |

0-17 but largely consistent in six starts in 2024 and 2025; was only beaten 1.5l into fourth off 4lb higher at Galway (3m, yld) in October; fell four out on return at Punchestown and weakened tamely at Clonmel last time; on a nice mark but needs more |

Best of three maiden hurdle runs was a 20l fifth of six at Kilbeggan (3m1f, good to yielding); she will be suited by this distance but others preferred. |
