15th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 7f 153y |
11st 10lb |
Dual Flat winner gained both of his hurdle wins consecutively on better ground at this track last season, including in this race; just 3lb above winning mark and his seasonal return here (2m1f, good to yielding) when an 11l third was encouraging. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 110y |
11st 10lb |
Won this race last year and followed up in May; course form is an important asset, so worth considering despite having finished out of the money on his final two starts in 2025; 10lb higher now than when winning snugly 12 months ago on similar ground. |

Won twice at Kilbeggan earlier this year and raised a cumulative 13lb; got 1lb back after a midfield finish at Fairyhouse 16 days ago and may have needed that run; not discounted. |

Finished runner-up four times in Ireland last year, but has shown little in four starts for this yard since returning in January and is now 0-15; look elsewhere. |

Went close several times on turf/AW when trained in Ireland but has been well beaten in all three starts for this trainer; on a handy mark but no hint yet that he's about to take advantage. |

Fir form although hardly progressive and surprising if she played a major role unless first-time cheekpieces bring about improvement. |

Really hit form in heavy ground, winning on consecutive days at Gowran earlier this month, readily carrying 7lb penalty second occasion to win with plenty in hand; up another 8lb but again has ground to suit and big player. |

An 18-race maiden with six seconds to his name; ran okay when fourth over C&D last week but this looks tougher. |

Placed many times, including twice over C&D; below form on soft ground last twice but coming back to this surface could spark a return to his best, which would see him go close. |

Dual Flat winner; off the mark at fourth attempt hurdling with much-improved effort when running away with 2m2f Down Royal handicap in January; staying on in midfield when a last-flight faller at the Punchestown festival latest; absent since a poor run at Tramore in late May. |

10st 2lb |
Won four times for Ian Williams on a variety of ground, all at 1m2f; nothing for this yard at big odds until mildly encouraging run at Bellewstown last time; drops in class now and has his ground, worth a market check. |
