11st 12lb |
Ballinrobe maiden hurdle winner in 2023; returned from absence last year with two moderate Flat runs; tailed off over hurdles at Gowran; pulled up at Fairyhouse; not easy to fancy on chase debut. |

17th Feb 2026 1m 5f 219y Class 6 |

Three of his five wins have come over C&D, including a division of this race last year when rated 5lb higher; not shone yet this winter and he arrives with a bit to prove. |

16th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |

Three-time course winner (1m6f) but he's been out of sorts in his last five runs and latest was at this track three weeks ago; has something to prove and his tactical speed will be tested back at this trip. |

14th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Kept on well to score off this mark at Chepstow (2m, good to firm) in July and also has a soft-ground success on his record but both runs last month were below par and conditions are probably not ideal for him today. |

Still without a win on the Flat and he's been off since a below-par 11th over hurdles at Newbury in November; needs to take a big step forward after a break. |

26th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Beaten just a nose in this race last year and third to Grey Skies over C&D in July; however, he hasn't been at the top of his game on the Flat and over C&D on his last two starts, and his very long losing run continues. |

Three-time bumper winner (good/heavy) ran below expectations in Flat maidens last June, behind a stablemate at Sligo and when folding tamely in testing conditions at Roscommon; should have more to offer on the level but possibly more so in handicaps; has run well fresh. |

Verdict
This looks a golden opportunity for STAR KISSED, a half-sister to the yard’s smart Thunder Kiss, to get a winning bracket. Gordon Elliott’s pair Teagarden Jazz and Douglas DC look the most likely to fill the placings. [Alan Hewison]
