23rd Jun 2023 Soft 1m 4f 110y |
8st 12lb |
Much improved this spring with step up in trip, winning Tipperary maiden and bolted home in Naas rated contest over 1m2f; quite tame effort however in Leopardstown Listed over this trip last time after setting a steady pace; return to easier ground should suit but questions to answer at this level now. |

8th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Much improved this spring with step up in trip, winning Tipperary maiden over this trip before impressive in Naas rated contest over 1m2f, travelling strongly to lead some way out and going clear (eased and value for more than 10l margin); well worthy of this step up in grade and should go well if handling this fast ground. |

Placed over this trip on Leopardstown reappearance and then forged clear in the straight to win five-runner maiden over extended 1m4f at Tipperary; mark unchanged for that but could be done for toe back in trip. |

5th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 0lb |
Has form at a variety of tracks but seems ideally suited by Pontefract, being 3-4 there compared to just 1-16 elsewhere; drops back in class for this first visit to Ayr. |
10/1 |
|
8th 14 (11) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 113y Class 2 |
9st 0lb |
Four-time winner who landed a third success at Pontefract (1m, good) on his penultimate start, having attracted support; also effective on a softer surface than that but it was this mark he raced from when well held at York three weeks ago and this demands a career best. |
20/1 |

12th 16 (5) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 5lb |
Ran just four times last year, winning on three occasions (1m, good/soft), and back on the scoresheet at Pontefract (1m, good) a fortnight ago on his second start of the season; did it cosily last time and a 4lb rise may not stop this thriving 6yo. |

14th Feb 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 203y Class 3 |
11st 4lb |
Capable of useful form over fences in Ireland for Gordon Elliott but he's still to score in this sphere and has offered little for his new yard, jumping sketchily when pulled up in 3m Doncaster handicap three weeks ago; plenty more is required despite a tumbling mark. |

Ex-Irish 6yo; last of five finishers at Newbury (2m6f) on debut for new yard, taking chase record to 0-7; needs improvement to defy top weight. |

14th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 0f 216y |

Deserved his C&D win in an amateur handicap last October after several solid displays; doubts raised by subsequent form but still merits respect in a race of this standard. |

19th Mar 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 1f 20y |

Deserved win in Clonmel amateur handicap in October (yielding) off 93; solid Thurles effort off revised mark; mistake costly at Clonmel next time; remains of interest if avoiding serious error. |

Standout run when second behind a decent type in 1m2f Curragh maiden; well below that form twice since, folding quickly each time; hard to fancy on handicap debut. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 3f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Smart hurdler (rated 143) at his best, albeit soundly beaten in competitive handicaps final two starts last term; bit laboured in his jumping on chasing debut at Clonmel in April (soft), but has had time off since and no surprise if he returned with an improved display; has to be considered on favoured ground. |

14th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 7f 131y |
11st 12lb |
Dual-purpose; the best of these over hurdles (rated 143); no impact on first three starts for this yard in hot handicap hurdles; well beaten on sole previous chase start at Cork when with Gavin Cromwell but this much easier; wouldn't want it too soft. |
11/8 |

16th 7 |
13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 0f 179y Class 1 |
11st 1lb |
Two wins apiece on the Flat and over hurdles during his time with Gavin Cromwell but well beaten in a big-field handicap on the Flat and over hurdles (behind a few of these at Dublin Racing Festival) since joining current yard; the refitting of blinkers needs to help spark a revival. |
