25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 3m 1f 0y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Dual chase winner; ran well in handicaps during Galway Festival week and another respectable effort in the Kerry National, without suggesting he'll provide the answer to this. |

7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 2m 7f 207y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Got up on the line at Kelso (3m2f) in May 2025 on second start for Paul Robson, opening her rules account; made the running when well beaten behind Maillot Blanc in this race last year, however, and not seen since; has changed hands and now has first run for Adam Nichol, with a tongue-tie (tried twice in 2024) restored. |

7th May 2025 Good 3m 1f 170y Class 5 |

Irish point winner in March (3m, yielding) when with Peter Fahey; creditable 3l fifth off this mark in a mares' novice handicap hurdle on stable debut here last time (2m5f, good); this looks harder, but a possible. |

11st 9lb |
Maiden (0-19); runner-up at Kelso (3m, good) last October but out of form since; in rear throughout over 2m4f at Hexham (beaten 27l) latest; it isn't easy to build a compelling case for his chance. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 4f 15y Class 5 |
12st 0lb |
0-18 under rules; just failed at Kelso (3m, good; beaten a neck) last October, but has had issues since, twice pulling up at Newcastle (bled from the nose on both occasions), and beaten 83l at Perth (3m) over three weeks ago; best watched. |

Ex-Irish pointer; good second in a Kelso novice handicap chase (2m7f, good) last autumn but has pulled up on his two outings since (reportedly bled latest); something to prove. |

Bit too keen when not unfancied fourth of seven in Downpatrick bumper; related to some useful jumpers including yard's Listed-winning novice hurdler Cedarwood Road. |

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

Half-sister to winners Coolvalla (2m7f-3m6f hurdle/useful chase) and Cedarwood Road (useful 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase); dam placed in bumper, half-sister to bumper and smart 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Felix Yonger; Getaway filly with a lot of stamina in her pedigree; unlikely winner but should be worth watching. |
