25th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 50y |
9st 11lb |
Five-time winner for Joe Murphy; tailed off on debut for this stable in the Irish Lincolnshire last month; acts on most ground but can only be watched after that latest effort. |

15th Mar 2026 Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
8st 11lb |
Won five races for Joe Murphy; acts on heavy ground and could be a useful recruit to the Burns yard; 6lb higher than for his last win, which was achieved at the main expense of Akecheta at Tipperary. |

Goes well in testing ground; won her fifth race when scoring over 1m1f at Tipperary; just ran out of stamina but a decent effort over 1m2f here since; can go well back to 1m. |

2nd Apr 2026 Good To Soft 2m 4f 189y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Won three times last spring (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft; including C&D) and followed a break by returning to winning ways with a career best at Musselburgh (2m4f, good to soft) a fortnight ago, albeit with half the hurdles omitted; could still have more to offer and she's respected up 4lb. |

20th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 3f 171y Class 4 |
10st 11lb |
Won three times last spring (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft); ran okay when fourth of seven over C&D (good to soft) in November when last seen (lost a shoe); each-way claims if fully tuned up after a break. |

21st Oct 2025 Good 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 9lb |
Made excellent progress when fitted with cheekpieces in the spring, and the second of her three wins was gained over C&D; further improvement is possible if she's fully tuned up after five-month break. |

21st May 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Outran odds of 125-1 when strong-finishing third in Gowran maiden over 7f; this looks a stronger race so good bit more likely required. |

6th May 2023 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Outran odds of 125-1 when third of 10 (beaten 3l) at Gowran last month; the extra furlong can only help given her pedigree and she has each-way claims. |

Without a win since 2023 and so signs of ending the drought on the Flat or over hurdles in 2025; beaten 5l on the AW last time out; others appeal more. |

Really hit form in heavy ground, winning on consecutive days at Gowran earlier this month, readily carrying 7lb penalty second occasion to win with plenty in hand; up another 8lb but again has ground to suit and big player. |

Can start slowly but often comes home well; two wins over this trip and would have been up in another stride or two at Dundalk last time; goes well at this, his local track, too. |

C&D winner in September from 7lb lower; got going too late when beaten favourite at Cork end of last term; slowly away and eased once chance was gone on return at Gowran a fortnight ago; should be sharper now. |
