14th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 11lb |
Hasn't won since Group 3 C&D win over two years ago; pick of four runs this term when unlucky in running fifth (beaten only 1.5l) here over 1m4f; hood didn't work at Galway latest and now left off. |

1st Aug 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Former Group 3 winner who isn't handicapped out of contention and he didn't get the breaks when fifth to Fleetfoot at the Curragh most recently; could be dangerous in the new hood. |

29th Jun 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y |

One of two for yard; enjoyed a purple-patch in 2023 when winning three in a row (including a Listed race over C&D); lost way subsequently but signs of life when beaten just 3.25l here last month (1m2f, good); promising rider takes off 7lb; likes quick ground; could go well. |

11th Nov 2023 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Best effort when third in 1m Listed event at Killarney in July; not at the same level in Group 3/Listed race in Ireland since; only seventh on her previous AW outing but it was at the start of her career. |

22nd Oct 2023 Heavy 1m 0f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Runner-up in 1m2f Listed race in France last backend for former yard; some good runs in defeat this term, notably making up plenty of ground over 1m1f at Tipperary early this month on heavy (Walhaan and Saltonstall behind); drop in trip not ideal but top-weight a definite player. |
13/2 |

3rd 3 (9) |
1st Oct 2023 Soft To Heavy 1m 1f 0y |

held up in rear, headway when raced wide home turn, still plenty to do over 1f out, ran on well towards near side inside final furlong, went third towards finish, too much to do |

20th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Has modest strike-rate in recent years and ought to have coped better with the heavy ground when safely held on last two starts at Ffos Las (1m2f/1m); needs to up his game. |
14/1 |
|
1 (7) |
28th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Sole handicap win over 1m on good ground but he has form on soft and heavy; signs of a revival two starts ago but he failed by a long chalk to confirm it on this track since; still capable of going well off his reduced mark if refitting cheekpieces helps. |
8/1 |
|
4 (6) |
9th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
Has dropped to a handy mark, but he didn't get going until it was too late when fourth of eight over C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago; capable of playing a part if things drop right; stable also runs Zambezi Magic. |

10th Jul 2023 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 110y |
11st 12lb |
Useful Flat performer but has twice refused to race since March and was withdrawn at the start when due to make his hurdling debut at Bellewstown on Saturday, having been reluctant to line up; risky. |
8/1 |
|

8th Jul 2023 Good 2m 0f 188y |
11st 12lb |
Was stakes-class a couple of years ago on the level for Michael Halford and some okay runs for Ado McGuinness this year when he consented to come out of the stalls, which he twice didn't; we'll find out here whether hurdles have sweetened him up. |
9/1 |
|
8 (6) |
27th May 2023 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 5lb |
Has some solid placed form over this C&D but he refused to race here in March and he's been very slowly away twice since; on a good mark if he can get his act together at the start; eye-shield fitted for the first time. |

One-time useful Flat horse has been regressive this year; much the best of four hurdle runs came on debut in 2023; isn't shouting to be backed on handicap debut. |

25th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 54y |
11st 12lb |
Classy hurdler 4-11 in that sphere and rated 140; ground versatile; off since decent Flat run at the Curragh in October; returns with yard in form and his half-brother Royal Hollow has won for this stable over fences; could prove hard to beat if fit. |

21st Oct 2025 Soft 1m 4f 0y |

Useful dual-purpose performer; third in the Irish Lincoln here in March; has won two small-field hurdle races at Cork since then, well below his best on the Flat at Listowel. |

14th Oct 2025 Good 2m 2f 197y |

Good dual-purpose performer; third in the Irish Lincoln this year off 94; won a 2m conditions hurdle at Cork in April; below best when facing a stiff task in a Grade 3 hurdle at Tipperary in July; comfortable winner of a two-runner hurdle at Cork in August; never in contention in a Flat handicap at Listowel; meets Glen Kiln on 13lb worse than handicap terms |

Won a premier handicap over 1m4f here at the 2022 festival, fair fifth of 17 in the same race last season; fit from a hurdling campaign in which he has been placed in three consecutive maidens; half-brother to the stable's 2016 winner Swamp Fox; brother to smart jumper Knappers Hill; potentially interesting if he gets the trip. |

Dual course winner last winter (including C&D); probably should have won here a fortnight ago, throwing away the race by wandering in the closing stages (beaten 1l); same mark and return to further is fine. |

Dual winner here, including over C&D; was well beaten over 1m4f a week ago after an absence but should strip fitter today and not dismissed. |
