19th Jun 2026 Good 2m 5f 89y Class 3 |
10st 2lb |
Off the mark over fences at this track (2m3f, good) in March 2025 for Alastair Ralph but has been below that form in four runs since; sold for £4,000 to join current yard last month and is well handicapped if he can put his best foot forward on his stable debut. |

11th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 0f 16y Class 4 |
12st 0lb |
Needs to improve on his third-place finishes (modest/remote) this term but would be interesting if the ground is good; won off current mark at Market Rasen (2m3f) the last time he raced on such going. |

11st 4lb |
Point' winner came back from a long absence with two solid efforts in maiden hurdles at Naas and Leopardstown over shorter; the step-up to this trip should suit and a tongue-tie is added; major chance. |

Point-to-point winner has shaped creditably in two maiden hurdle runs over shorter, looking a bit onepaced over 2m4f at Leopardstown on latest; step up in trip should suit and tried in a tongue tie. |

11st 0lb |
Gained second hurdles win back on his favoured good ground over 2m1f at Clonmel last month but well held off 4lb higher over slightly further 12 days ago; switches to fences now but lack of experience a possible negative. |

Back on his favoured good ground, he won well at Clonmel (2m) and a 5lb rise isn't the end of the world, having been competitive off this mark before. |

Shock winner at Wexford in 2024; best effort last season when runner-up at Thurles (2m, good to yielding) in October; pulled up over 2m4f at Limerick (soft) back from a break; others preferred. |

Best maiden effort came on debut when beaten 21l at Fairyhouse (2m3f, soft/heavy); needs a market check ahead of his handicap debut. |

Showed nothing on his first two starts at huge odds; minor progress when beaten 24l here (1m7f, good-to-yielding) but likely to get different ground this time. |

1st May 2026 Yielding 3m 0f 160y |
12st 0lb |
Won a competitive handicap chase at the 2024 festival for Henry de Bromhead (2m4f, good to yielding); hunter chase victory over Hunters Yarn at Gowran Park showed that he retains considerable ability; confirmed that impression when beating all bar star hunter Barton Snow at Aintree; goes well for Sophie Carter. |

9th Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 19y Class 2 |
12st 0lb |
Won a competitive handicap chase at the Punchestown festival in May 2024 for Henry de Bromhead (2m4f, good to yielding) and winning a hunter chase at Gowran Park (3m1f, heavy) last month showed that he retains considerable ability at the age of 11; firmly in calculations. |

7th Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 1f 0y |

Point winner in 2019 and showed a lot of ability during his time with Henry de Bromhead, the highlight when winning a valuable 2m4f handicap chase at the 2024 Punchestown festival; ran only twice last year; found a new lease of life when winning at Oldtown two weeks ago on debut for Mags Mullins; the capable Sophie Carter keeps the ride. |
