3rd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 5f 120y |

Has recorded three of his five wins at Punchestown, the most recent was last June; ran well at a big price there in January on his second run after a break. |

16th Jun 2025 Good To Yielding 2m 4f 51y |
10st 0lb |
Was gaining fourth win over fences when coping with better ground over 2m4f at Punchestown eight days ago, recording a third win at the track in what was a messy race; not certain to back that up but 4lb rise gives him every chance (2lb out of handicap but rider claims 3lb) and has won over hurdles around here. |

Three chase wins have come on soft/heavy ground; out of form since last win in March 2024; showed no sign of a return to form when beaten 27L at Down Royal last time; dropped 3lb but hard to fancy. |

22nd Apr 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Another ex-Gavin Cromwell inmate who secured narrow win over fences at Punchestown (2m, good to yielding) in June; 0-5 for this yard but February's close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) on penultimate start was a creditable effort; stable in fine form. |

Hurdle/chase winner for Gavin Cromwell who has improved with each of his four runs for this yard, most recently close second of five at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft); that looked a warm little race and he's respected. |

Placed in a few maidens but then lost her form in handicaps last season; best run this term second at Cork in May but disappointing since and has to rebound. |

8th Aug 2025 Good 2m 4f 100y |

11th Jul 2025 Good 2m 4f 0y |

Back to form when beaten half a length over this C&D on May's return to action but she was tailed off at Sligo subsequently; needs to bounce back and this looks like a difficult assignment for the grade. |

27th Sep 2025 Good 2m 0f 125y Class 2 |
10st 8lb |
Ex-Irish 7yo who won Worcester maiden (2m, good) on stable debut in July and was respectable third of six from out of the weights in Perth handicap (2m, good) last month; effectively 4lb lower from correct mark here and promising conditional Lewis Sanuders claims a useful 7lb; could have a say. |

16th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 47y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Ordinary Flat winner in Ireland and was 0-21 there over jumps (including 12 defeats over fences); came good on yard debut in a maiden at Worcester (in none of the aids he sported for former connections) and could build on that; 3lb wrong at the weights. |

24th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

1-35 under all codes when based in Ireland, the win gained on the Flat in 2022; placed in a low-grade handicap chase this spring and the pick of his 2023 hurdling form gives him a good chance on these terms; interesting to see what Olly Murphy can do with him. |

18th Aug 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 140y |
11st 0lb |
0-23 over hurdles but she has finished second four times; beaten 5l into second at Leopardstown off 86 in March 2023; went close off 84, 86 and 87 later that year; well-handicapped now off 80 but she hasn't shown enough in four runs this season; needs a revival. |

Beaten no more that a length in three successive 2m handicaps in early autumn but maiden's form has dipped since; back up in trip with headgear combo back on for the first time since last year. |

26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Registered a first Flat win when scoring over C&D in January and it was a creditable effort when chasing home St Faz at Lingfield (2m, Polytrack) six days ago; work to do if he's to turn the tables but still one of the more likely ones. |

4-22 over hurdles but just 1-15 on the Flat, the win coming at Southwell (1m6f, Tapeta) in January; only 1lb higher, though, and should make his presence felt. |

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. |

12th Jan 2024 Soft 2m 3f 179y Class 4 |

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. |

Back on track with last month's Huntingdon fourth (3m, good), but once again couldn't tease out her resources for long enough and the change of headgear looks worth a go; player if that works with mark never lower. |
