25th Jul 2024 Good 2m 4f 100y |
10st 13lb |
All three wins under rules have come in handicap hurdles at Cork, the latest over 3m in March but shown little in two runs since (over fences latest); 2m4f on quicker ground might not be ideal for him these days. |

26th Mar 2025 Good 2m 0f 8y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Dual 2m hurdle winner on yielding ground in Ireland; placed in 6-28 chase starts but recent form suggests that a 7lb drop and the application of cheekpieces won't see him break his duck in this discipline. |
33/1 |

Veteran; five-time chase winner including three over C&D; last won here last August off 99 and 3lb lower now; recent efforts have been underwhelming, however, and blinkers are reached for. |
18/1 |

6th 10 (14) |
3rd May 2026 Good 1m 5f 190y |
9st 4lb |
Old boy has won 12 races in all under both codes, mostly from the front; C&D winner in 2024 and was placed over 1m4f last year, but he's pushing on now and tailed off over fences last time. |

19th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 7f 110y |

Veteran pulled up on first start for this yard at Clonmel in December but has a fine record here (four wins, three over fences) and is just 1lb higher than when winning over C&D last August; ground versatile and can't discount. |

10st 8lb |
All five wins have come over hurdles but has managed useful form in defeat over fences this term; finished in front of his shorter-priced stablemate Ricky Langford (also runs here) when second at Killarney in October; tongue-tie tried when unplaced over C&D, left off now. |
10/1 |

23rd Nov 2023 Yielding 2m 2f 91y |

All five wins have come over hurdles but he's been running well in defeat over fences this term; form of his latest second boosted with the winner going close subsequently; should be involved if he takes to the first-time tongue-tie. |

19th Oct 2023 Yielding 2m 4f 112y |
10st 13lb |
Point winner; not always fluent over fences, as seen when making a bad mistake at the last at Tramore in August and unseated on his previous two outings; 5lb rise probably isn't an issue and this ground is fine but needs to jump better. |
5/1 |

Without a win since June 2022; no sign of losing run ending in recent starts; new headgear combination needs to have a transformative effect. |

4th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 7f 0y |

Dual hurdler winner and better known in that sphere these days; while he's shown a bit of ability on the level down the years, that's been over much longer trips than this. |

29th May 2026 Good 2m 5f 145y |

Last won over hurdles here (2m, good) in 2022; rated 23lb higher over fences but hard to fancy on the evidence of his last three runs over hurdles at Clonmel. |
28/1 |

9th 11 |
14th May 2026 Good 2m 3f 116y |

Hurdles win came at Tramore back in 2022, more recently won over fences at Wexford last summer; soft ground not ideal of late so improvement on the cards back on a sound surface. |

12th 6 |
26th Mar 2026 Soft 2m 2f 188y |
