Longstanding maiden has been placed plenty of times; pulled-up in first-time cheekpieces at Listowel last time and not easy to fancy from 1lb out of the handicap. |

Sole win over hurdles came over C&D in 2023; some decent runs in defeat last year but has to bounce back from a poor Listowel effort. |

Sole win came over this sort of trip at Killarney in August 2023; running well in defeat from this sort of mark at the end of 2024 and may have needed this month's return at Tipperary; some rain would be in his favour. |

10st 2lb |
Swapped usual cheekpieces for refitted visor and gave good account when third from 3lb out of the weights over C&D (good) on Saturday; will effectively be 1lb lower if he turns out again but his 0-42 career strike-rate is not easily overlooked. |

18th Jul 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 5 |

Ran well to a point when fourth in C&D selling handicap won by Alvesta in May but was beaten about 19l in the end and has been safely held in two subsequent chases; 3lb wrong today and now 0-40 under rules. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 5f 200y |
9st 4lb |
Capable under both codes, both Flat wins coming in 1m6f Killarney handicaps, last summer off 72 before good second at Newmarket (2m2f); Curragh comeback run in late May was poor but more expected of here. |
6/1 |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Capable under both codes, with dual wins in each; won a Killarney handicap in August and was a distant runner-up at Newmarket in September (8l behind Reverend Hubert); finished seventh in this race last year, and may need this comeback run once again. |
15/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |

Another who is capable under both codes and has been on a roll on the Flat this year, gamely repelling allcomers from the front over 1m6f at Killarney last time (good); however, off this mark in today's company, this would be his toughest test yet on the Flat. |

3rd May 2023 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |

Ex-Irish maiden who's been expensive to follow this spring, again getting turned over as favourite last week; has been found another weak race but this trip looked to stretch him at Newcastle in March. |

Remains without a win but she's proving a reliable type who posted another solid effort when third of 13 in 1m4f Thirsk handicap 22 days ago; she ought to be in the shake-up. |
