14th Oct 2023 Good To Soft 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Won last year's 2m2f Ulster Cesarewitch and never better than when second in the C&D Trial three weeks ago, setting sail for home 4f out but unable to shake off Grand Providence; rarely seen on softer than good (had some soft-ground form in 2021); otherwise looks set to go well. |

23rd Sep 2023 Good To Firm 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Won last year's 2m2f Ulster Cesarewitch; ran creditably twice at the Curragh this summer before strong-finishing second to Extensio at Clonmel; held up for those runs but last year's success came when ridden much more prominently; may need a new personal best but she has proved her stamina and makes plenty of appeal. |

Dual hurdle winner on good ground, never sighted on return from 544-day absence at Downpatrick in June; reverts to fences here having shown nothing in three attempts in late 2022 so impossible to assess on handicap debut; market likely best guide. |

Winless since May 2023; some sound beatings among his current sequence of frame finishes, but he did run the winner to about 7l at Fakenham latest (2m5f, good to soft) with a next-time winner just behind. |

Regressive 8yo who is 0-5 over fences and has been absent since his well-held fourth at Bangor (2m1f, good) last March; might have been refreshed by a layoff but could be considered only if lively in the betting. |

Naas winner early last year for former yard after a long absence (2m3f, heavy); backed into favourite when tailed off on stable debut at that venue in January; capable of a better showing than that. |

Bolted up on yard debut on the back of an absence in January and bounced back from a lesser run when beaten roughly 2l at Fairyhouse earlier this month; both wins on heavy but versatile with regards to conditions and drop back in trip fine too. |

Has 1-54 career strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022; this year's Flat handicap form is uninspiring but he'll appreciate this ease in grade and is worth a glance in the betting. |

21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 198y Class 6 |

Has poor 1-53 strike-rate, the win gained over hurdles in 2022, and was soundly beaten on both outings this year (11.4f/1m2f); might be perked up by the refitted blinkers, though, and Billy Loughnane is a good booking. |

Won C&D beginners' before decent 3rd in handicap here; however, has questions to answer after a poor Tipperary run and yard has gone a bit quiet. |

4th Jul 2023 Good To Yielding 2m 3f 114y |

Had become a frustrating operator prior to Kilbeggan beginners win, and backed it up with another decent third at same 15-days ago, although his jumping was a bit suspect at times in the latter; his rating alone, allied with his rider's valuable 5lb claim, suggests big things here, and it will be no surprise if he lands the top step of the podium. |
