7th 12 (6) |
2nd Sep 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Three wins to his name from 22 starts; solid back-to-back placed efforts over 5f at Naas and the Curragh before finishing down the field over 6f on latest; blinkered for the first time. |
10/1 |

11th 4 (21) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Two-time winner has posted solid back-to-back efforts over 5f at Naas and here last week (short head behind Soulful Diva); return to 6f looks a plus and place claims at least again off unchanged mark. |
13/2 |

3rd 4 (2) |
16th Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 13lb |
Two-time turf winner in 2024, including over C&D; good AW run last winter and fine return from over three months' absence when second at Naas last month off reduced mark (third has won since); definite player. |
9/2 |

2nd 6 (11) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Two-time turf winner in 2024, both at 5f on good to firm and good to yielding ground; is now 14lb below his last success and not in bad form when last seen at Dundalk in March; worth checking in the market on return to turf. |

4th 1 (8) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y |
10st 0lb |
C&D maiden winner in 2023; added two 5f turf wins in 2024; very encouraging third back from a break over C&D in February under this rider; didn't look the easiest mount for a 10lb claimer last time when hanging; he's 11lb lower than his last winning mark and Coen back aboard is a plus. |
4/1 |
