Hampered at the start and very little went right on his handicap debut here last week, so to be a fast-finishing third was an excellent effort; has a bad draw to overcome here but has leading claims if things go better here. |

0-9 but went the closest he's come to winning when running on for second here (8.5f) latest, his first start for this trainer; that effort suggests that the return to further could be positive; tongue-tie goes on; contender. |

Maiden has shown fair form of late on soft ground, staying-on third over 1m2f at Sligo and over today's trip at Listowel kept on well into second behind an easy winner after not clearest of runs; unplaced favourite at Bellewstown last time. |

9st 8lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in February and was good second at Chelmsford (1m2f) in April; well held at Kempton last month but he travelled smoothly for a long way and may have stretched stamina on that step up to 1m3f; now drops back in trip/grade and he's not ruled out. |

Essentially holding form in defeat since February's gambled-on Wolverhampton success (9.5f), not for the first time shaping as if today's trip might be worth a go when a keeping-on second at Chelmsford latest (1m2f, had to wait for a run); still well treated on last year's peak Irish form. |

31st Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 4f 0y |

25th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 84y |

Returns from a break/makes stable debut; consistent last year and winner of a Fairyhouse handicap last June off a mark of 56 (1m4f, good); 2.25l second at Galway and 3.75l third at Tipperary both over 1m4f on her final two starts last year mean she is now 13lb higher than her win. |

Last year's third in a 20-runner Curragh maiden won by Paddington reads exceptionally well in the light of the winner's Group 1 exploits this season; however; he has failed to build on that in two subsequent runs; tongue-tie tried now following disappointing handicap debut at Leopardstown. |
