27th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 0y |
12st 0lb |
Decent form over fences last autumn, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; pulled up in a race of this type over hurdles at Tramore last month; better when fourth off his higher chase mark at this venue on latest; hard to win with. |

Dual-purpose sort showed decent form over fences last autumn, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; not an easy horse to win with and has to rebound now after a failure over hurdles at Tramore. |

Dual-purpose sort showed his best form last autumn over fences, including third in a Punchestown Grade 3 novice; rated 10lb less over hurdles but can be involved if ready enough on return. |

Bellewstown maiden hurdle winner in 2024 (2m1f, good) and returned from a 632-day absence when seventh on the Flat back at that venue last month; that is something to build on. |

11st 12lb |
Showed some ability on the Flat but more convincing between last August and October, placed on all three starts after a Ballinrobe maiden win; disappointing on AW debut at Dundalk early in the month; cheekpieces on now. |

Showed some ability on the Flat but more convincing over hurdles in second half of last year; absent since October so market possibly best guide on return but could now have more to offer on the flat; AW debut. |

Won for the second time over hurdles when taking a Down Royal handicap last year; not bad efforts over hurdles and on the Flat lately but needs a fair bit more. |

3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 7lb |
Second runner for James Nash; dual-purpose mare has won twice over hurdles; maiden in this sphere but her fourth to You Make Me Smile in last year's renewal was one of her best Flat runs and she has a nice pull at the weights; place chance. |
10/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good 2m 3f 170y |

Won her second hurdle race when winning this race a year ago off 2lb lower; has only run four times between the Flat and hurdles since; should run well with a repeat of best; ground-versatile. |

Won a Thurles Grade 3 novice chase in March before a solid Punchestown fourth behind Sea Music; placed in a 20-runner Flat handicap at the Curragh in May; stablemate of the strongly-fancied Nurburgring, and same colours as another leading fancy Down Memory Lane. |

Winning pointer attracted market support on return to Rules' here but faded into sixth, 19l behind the winner; might have needed that after a short break and steps up to a more suitable trip off 1lb lower; not discounted for local yard. |
