Dual turf winner over about 6f wasn't beaten far in first-time cheekpieces here last time; needs more from 1lb lower with the headgear removed. |

22nd Nov 2023 Standard 0m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Placed on his first five starts, now looks regressive but could feature in this company since he is rated the equal of Cross Border and finished only just behind Never Cry Never when sixth at Navan. |
7/2 |

18th Oct 2023 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Clear prospects on his best form but there are several negatives attached to his profile too; beaten favourite on four occasions since a promising debut at the Curragh in May; appears to have lost form, though run was too bad to be true in 6f Curragh maiden in which Nouvel Espoir was third. |

20th Aug 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner; made a winning stable debut for Laura Mongan (1m, AW) in March but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 2,000gns in July; return to 6f should suit on stable debut. |

4th Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Won at 6f and over C&D for James Owen at the start of the year, then over 1m here on yard debut in March, but his last three runs have been nothing like as good; has plenty to prove back at 7f. |
25/1 |

1st Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Enjoyed a revival for James Owen and this yard earlier in the year, with three wins, including two round here; up in the weights now, though, and finished well behind a couple of these over C&D a month ago; needs more from somewhere. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 0m 5f 205y |
9st 7lb |
Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her return from the AW to finish a close third in Fairyhouse conditions event (6f, good) in June; not at same level later in month in Curragh Listed and good bit to find with Fregada on that run. |
16/1 |

28th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Likeable mare ran a cracking race on her seasonal return in a median auction race at Fairyhouse (6f, good) when just 0.5l behind the winner Tango Flare; rated just 92, however, so looks to be out of her depth in this grade (failed to trouble the judge in three previous runs in stakes company). |

3rd 5 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Eight-time winner including three on turf; won off 87 at Navan last August (6f, yielding); well-beaten when last seen at Dundalk in February; has gone well fresh before so worth a market check on return. |

Four-time C&D winner, has struggled to find his best form since second here in November; third in a six-runner contest three starts ago. |

14th Feb 2025 Standard 0m 5f 0y |

Four-time 6f course winner who hinted at a return to form when third of six here four weeks ago; failed to build on that on his most recent visit, though not far behind Sporting Hero in that event. |

Four-time C&D winner who hinted at a return to form when third of six 12 days ago; down another 2lb and should be in the mix with useful claimer taking off 5lb. |

31st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 94y |
9st 1lb |
Plenty of ability but very hard to win with; sole Irish success came at the Curragh in April 2024; later that year, twice second to Merisi Diamond over C&D; again ran well here on seasonal debut and when second at Listowel later in May; possibly needed the run here last time. |
12/1 |

18th Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 111y |

First reserve; has run well in both starts this season; beaten 2.25l when runner up at Listowel when last seen in May; has gone well fresh before and C&D form figures read 224; chance if gets a run. |

2nd 9 (3) |
31st May 2026 Good 0m 6f 60y |
9st 4lb |
Over two years since latest of only two wins; second over 6f at the Curragh in October and ran well over 7.5f on return, but poor strike-rate overall; prefers it soft but handles good. |

Dundalk maiden winner not beaten far in turf handicaps of late so definitely not ruled out; rider's claim a positive. |

16th Jun 2023 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Off the mark at the fourth attempt in a Dundalk maiden and has run well in defeat twice since; 4lb lower than his latest outing at Cork and should relish a return to 6f. |
4/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
17th May 2023 Good 0m 5f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Left his previous form behind when justifying favouritism in a 6f Dundalk maiden in February and ran to a similar level when third over the same C&D last time; gives the impression 5f will be fine and not on a bad mark. |
