Fair form in maidens before much improved on handicap debut at the Curragh (1m2f) last month, seeing it out well despite racing keenly (second and fourth have won since); up 7lb but quite likely has more to offer. |

11th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 150y |
10st 0lb |
2024 Chesterfield Cup winner for Johnny Murtagh; failed to find his best form last season, including a spell in Britain; beaten favourite here behind the useful Genoah in two starts for this stable (handicap and a rated race); has run well enough in defeat both times, and is attractively treated on his old form. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Made late gains after an awkward start when 2l behind Genoah on stable debut over 10.5f here latest; ran well sole try over this trip in the 2024 Cork Derby so could turn that form around; big chance. |

9st 7lb |
Modest 2-26 strike-rate and refused to race once in the autumn; however, he's often run well in competitive races, as when third of 19 at York (1m, good) last July and was hampered next time; creditable return for new yard at Redcar (first-time hood, cheekpieces now refitted) this month; involved. |

7th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
8st 13lb |
Successful twice (1m2f/1m) in Ireland earlier in his career; talented but failed to win in 14 starts for Iain Jardine, including refusing to race on his penultimate outing last year; it's possible a change of stable (same owner) could spark a revival but a watching brief is still the percentage call here; hooded first time. |
22/1 |

2-24 with both wins coming for Ger Lyons in Ireland (1m/1m2f); finished a close third of 19 behind Billyb here (1m, good) in July, but he refused to race at Ayr three weeks ago and has enough to prove after that. |

Has progressed really well since joining this yard this term, recording back-to-back premier handicap wins at the Curragh and when hitting the line strongly here over 1m1f on quick ground; keen and never involved from a wide draw behind Dunum at Galway on latest; drop back to 7f may not suit. |

29th Jul 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 123y |

Has progressed really well since joining this yard this term, recording back-to-back premier handicap wins of late, at the Curragh and when hitting the line strongly over 1m1f at Leopardstown 19 days ago; strong stayer at this trip so a truly-run race will suit and favourable ground conditions persist. |

Winner of a premier handicap at the Curragh last time (1m, good); had a number of today's rivals behind him on that occasion; consistent runs prior to his recent win; up 5lb and a number of those in behind him didn't get a clear run that day so he could be vulnerable. |

Low-key effort behind a few of these at Leopardstown earlier this month but return to quicker ground may help and she's back on her last winning mark (also went close off 77 in Clonmel handicap in September); Neve Bennett who claims 7lb has ridden her fair share of winners; could go well. |
