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. |

Winless after 26 hurdle starts and although he often runs respectably at the right level, he has no realistic chance against rivals who mostly would be giving him plenty of weight in a handicap. |

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. |

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. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |

Won over C&D last summer off 59 and pick of three runs this year when good third at the Curragh, having raced keenly and hanging right under 7lb claimer; not the best of breaks on Wolverhampton AW latest but fair effort; 2lb wrong here but rider's claim negates that. |

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. |
