23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 6f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Better than ever last summer, winning at Cork and career-best when second in Scurry Handicap here over extended 6f; bit keen and not quite at same level in Listed at Galway festival when last seen; may just need this comeback run. |

3rd Aug 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 0y |

Holding his form well this season, winning over this trip at Cork and was finishing second for the third time when beaten 1/2l by Go Athletico in Scurry Handicap at the Curragh on latest; still-improving 5yo up to a career-high but one to consider from a good draw. |

Useful 2023 form; down the field in Irish Cambridgeshire on only 2024 start; dependable this term, placed in three successive races before a well-deserved 7f Cork success, achieved at the main expense of Heavenly Power, with Moltophino fourth; first time below 7f now, may find a few of these too quick for him |

9st 1lb |
Three-time winner over 5f-7f on turf in Ireland but has beaten a total of one rival in two runs at Southwell (6f, Tapeta) for this yard; first-time hood and the return of a tongue-tie needs to make a big difference. |

20th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 6y Class 6 |

11th Mar 2026 Standard 0m 5f 0y Class 6 |

Dual winner in Ireland for Natalia Lupini but he struggled for Tim Easterby in 2024/25; made a good start for this yard when second of nine at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) in September but he was disappointing following a slow start over 6f there 16 days ago; needs to bounce back. |

Sole win came at Galway (7f, yielding to soft) in August 2023 when trained by Dermot Weld; struggled in his first three outings for this yard but shaped more encouragingly at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 88 days ago; had a wind operation two days later and now returns to AW. |

Ex-Irish 5yo; yet to add to his Galway maiden win in summer 2023 and has not threatened on any of three starts for new stable this year (7f-1m); still worth a glance in the betting, though. |

Five-time winner, two on turf, both over a mile on good; in good form on the AW lately, won 1m4f handicap at Dundalk in February; 0.75l second to Unterberg 14 days ago on AW; needs a good pace to aim at and trip a bit sharp; soft ground would be a concern. |
