4th Sep 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 95y |
11st 0lb |
1-13 over fences, the win coming in a beginners' here over 25.5f in July; two respectable runs in handicaps since, 14l fourth in the Blazers at Galway (22.5f, good) and 12l second behind A Wave Of The Sea here (3m2f) two weeks ago; this trip may be too sharp. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 3m 1f 180y |
11st 12lb |
Four wins over hurdles; C&D chase winner last month, much too strong for Scalpanagoon; ran well to finish fourth in a higher grade in the Galway Blazers; has improved since finishing behind The Dara Man here in May; Dara McGill's 7lb claim is a help. |

31st Jul 2026 Good 2m 6f 111y |

Off the mark over fences in a Kilbeggan beginners' on latest (25.5f, good), pulling clear to score by 9l; raised 6lb for that effort but has placed off this sort of mark before and the drop back in trip shouldn't pose any problems; player. |

2nd Sep 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |

Useful dual-purpose sort who stays well; fit from hurdling, won at Roscommon on his penultimate start; went close at Killarney in May on his only Flat start this season. |

1st Aug 2026 Good 2m 6f 108y |

Doubled his score over hurdles when winning well at Roscommon last time, beating Stede Bonnet; however, his record is still only 2-29 and a 7lb rise makes this a tougher task up in grade. |

18th Jun 2023 Good 2m 1f 65y |

Much improved performance when staying on strongly to land a 2m handicap hurdle at Roscommon on Monday; up 10lb for that but likely that she is improving and every chance of going close again. |

12th Jun 2023 Good 2m 0f 46y |

70-rated on the Flat; jumping has been an issue in this sphere; late headway when beaten 15l on second handicap start at Tipperary. |

18th Jun 2023 Good 2m 1f 65y |

Won his sole point-to-point on returning from a year off the track; disappointing since from 2m3f to 3m and others look much more likely. |

Point' winner last December has shown some ability in six hurdle starts but was disappointing in handicap company last time; work to do. |

11th May 2023 Soft 2m 3f 25y |

Good level of maiden form for James Motherway; won point-to-point after long absence in December before decent third in 3m Cork maiden hurdle, despite taking keen hold; interesting back in trip for handicap debut. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 61y Class 5 |

Close second over fences at Catterick in January (1m7f, good) but mainly poor efforts since, the latest in a selling hurdle. |

2nd May 2026 Good 2m 0f 48y Class 4 |
11st 1lb |
Three hurdle wins in Ireland during 2023 but a close second over fences at Catterick (about 1m7f, good) in January came from out of the blue and hasn't been repeated since; returns to hurdles with a cloud hanging over him. |

5th Apr 2026 Good 2m 1f 43y Class 5 |

Seemingly back in good form when close second to short-odds favourite at Catterick (1m7f, good) on New Year's Day, his third start for Joanne Foster, but pulled up there twice since and now has it all to prove again; tongue-tie (worn on penultimate start) refitted. |

2nd Feb 2024 Good To Soft 3m 0f 60y Class 4 |
11st 8lb |
Second on chase debut in October (2m3f, soft) but finished 0-9 for Gordon Elliott, not always having much luck; heavy defeat at 50-1 three weeks ago on first run for new yard; usual cheekpieces are restored; bit to prove. |
16/1 |

12th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |
11st 6lb |
Has left Gordon Elliott with a 0-7 record over hurdles (placed once) and 0-2 over fences, not always having much luck; second on chase debut in October (2m3f, soft) and it was 3m on heavy ground when he pulled up in November latest; cheekpieces on last six starts but not today; Henrietta Knight's first runner since 2012 and of some interest judged on those two placings. |

Best efforts have come in a pair of Killarney maiden hurdles nine months apart; well beaten in a Down Royal handicap latest and first-time blinkers will need to bring about considerable improvement. |
