Always been highly regarded; close third in Curragh Group 3 in May and excellent second in valuable handicap over same 1m2f trip back there lately; travels well so drop in trip no concern and handles a little ease; apparently bound for Australia after this. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 7f 195y Class 2 |
11st 11lb |
Flat and jumps winner for Joseph O'Brien; it's not been an easy start for current yard, finishing last in the Grade 2 Kingwell (50-1) and then well down the field when 100-1 for the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham; has something to prove all of a sudden. |

13th Mar 2026 Good 2m 4f 56y Class 2 |

Flat and jumps winner for Joseph O'Brien; ran according to market expectations (rank outsider of four) in the Kingwell Hurdle on return from layoff and debut for new stable; drops back in class but needs to prove he's still capable of reproducing best Irish form. |

14th Feb 2026 Heavy 1m 7f 50y Class 1 |

Flat, chase and dual hurdle winner for Joseph O'Brien but he was out of sorts under both codes in his final two runs in Ireland; now returns to hurdling for new yard and this is a daunting task after 139 days off; blinkers worn last time are removed. |

30th Jun 2023 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Placed twice over this trip (at Navan and Cork) before front-running 1m maiden win at Cork, beating Cuban Dawn who ran respectably off 91 in the Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot; makes handicap debut off 90 here and sets a good standard. |
4/1 |

1st 14 (2) |
23rd May 2023 Good 1m 0f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Two good runs this season both over 1m2f; strong chance if equally effective at this trip; slight concern that his second on heavy ground at Navan was better than his third on good-to-yielding at Cork, though he was beaten under 2l; a stable outsider was too good for Cuban Dawn last week. |

8st 4lb |
Two wins at Newcastle (1m, AW) this year, including on his latest start last month; 2lb out of the handicap today and he's 0-13 on turf, but has been placed a few times on grass and is not discounted. |

27th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |

Just 2-33 but both wins have come here, the latest over C&D last month; found to be lame when down the field two days later and 7f looked too sharp when third here three weeks ago; he's one to consider now back up in trip. |

18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Out of the frame in all 14 starts and was beaten 12l in a small-field handicap at Chelmsford (1m6f) last month; has lots to prove back in trip and this looks tough at the weights; change of headgear. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Three wins this season (1m4f-1m6f); bounced back from poor AW run when close second to Arqoob here (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago and might still have a bigger performance in him over this longer trip; respected. |
7/2 |

2nd 3 (3) |
1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has done well over 1m4f-1m6f on turf this term, winning three times from six starts; latest win came easily at this track (1m6f, good to firm) in June and he's 7lb higher today; tailing off so badly at Southwell four weeks ago may be offputting but he came last in 2025 in his only other AW race, so perhaps can spring back to life with today's return to turf. |

Has done well over 1m4f-1m6f on turf this term, winning three times from five starts; scored easily at Newmarket latest; better than ever and may improve further in his current form; respected assuming he's as effective back at 2m and returned to AW. |
