25th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 80y |
10st 5lb |
Won over 3m on handicap debut (first-time cheekpieces) at Down Royal in January, beating subsequent Ulster National winner Born Braver; in rear in the Grand National Trial at Punchestown and ordinary run in Ladies National at Fairyhouse last time; all four wins have been on soft or worse, so that's a concern; yard has won last three renewals. |

Peak rating of 135 over hurdles; won a 3m handicap chase at Down Royal (yielding-to-soft) in January, beating subsequent Ulster National winner Born Braver; in rear the Grand National Trial at Punchestown on latest; could go well if first-time blinkers do the trick; trainer teamed up with rider Charlotte Butler to win this in 2024. |

15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 90y |
11st 8lb |
Hurdle winner who ran a cracker when second off 120 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary in October (2m, good); form tailed off then but relished the switch to fences when scoring at Downpatrick in March, beating Dee's Lady by 4.25l, below that when fifth behind Coral River but will appreciate this sound surface. |

Relished the switch to fences when coming from the back to win on chasing debut in a Downpatrick beginners' (19.5f, yielding) just 16 days ago; this is a harder race but he did it nicely the last day and he should go well again. |

0-28 under rules and 0-8 in chases but has run well in defeat on occasion in this sphere; decent fourth at Leopardstown (21.5f, yielding) in March; 8l second at Down Royal (3m2f, good) in April; modest fifth at Perth latest; needs to find more to get his head in front. |

Maiden's best effort came on handicap debut over C&D in June when a strong-finishing clear second; reportedly never travelled before pulled up at Ballinrobe in September so caution advised and unproven in such testing conditions. |

Downpatrick winner in June 2024 on good ground; ran only once last year; showed the benefit of a comeback run when beating Justicialism by 3l at Down Royal last month; rider reported he hung badly left at Downpatrick last time; decent chance if he handles this track. |
