30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Won 7f Galway maiden in first-time cheekpieces; solid first run of this season (no cheekpieces) when chasing home a 10l winner in Naas rated contest over 1m2f; again second over 1m at Listowel with tongue-tie as well as cheekpieces; looks the pick of two runners for the stable. |

Second over 1m at Bellewstown; always prominent and rallied well up the hill to win useful 7f maiden at the Galway festival; not seen since and headgear left off; big step up in trip but dam 1m winner out of half-sister to 1m4f Group 1 winner and running style suggests he'll stay. |

Hasn't added to 2yo Galway maiden win but career-best when touched off in Listed contest at same venue in August in first-time visor; two runs since not nearly as good, not seeming to get home in heavy ground latest; AW debut and major chance on her best form although hasn't always looked the strongest of finishers. |

Five-time winner best with a bit of cut in the ground; sole win last season came in a Listed heat at this venue (6f, yielding); may have needed his comeback at Cork and likes it here, but would probably like to see some rain. |

Has become hard to win with since landing a Group 3 as a 3yo but it was a good run in a deep Ascot handicap last time (5f, good to soft) and returning to further should suit (second in this 12 months ago); solid chance. |

Three of his four wins have come over C&D, including in this race 12 months ago; 1lb lower than for his last win and he should be at concert pitch with two runs under his belt; one for the shortlist. |
