7th Feb 2026 Soft 1m 7f 158y |
11st 11lb |
Better known as a four-time winner on the Flat; maiden hurdle winner in 2023; ran out at the third-last when clear in a hurdle race at Fairyhouse in April 2024; returned from a long absence with a run in December; should be sharper now. |

18th Jun 2024 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; fairly useful hurdler who's won from the front in three of his last four Flat starts, including at Navan (1m5f, good to yielding) and Killarney (2m1f, soft; Almuhit fourth) in his two runs this season; the latter was in fine style and a major step forward with the step up in trip, so this improving 5yo is one to take seriously despite his rise in the weights and a much stronger race. |

30th Apr 2026 Yielding 2m 7f 110y |
10st 3lb |
Hit form since joining this yard, winning twice over fences including the Leinster National at Naas; also won over hurdles at Gowran; this ground is faster than ideal but his hurdles mark is appealing. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 174y |
10st 0lb |
Built on stable debut second with an easy handicap chase win in December off 114 (3m, soft to heavy); backed that up with a handicap hurdle success at Gowran next time (3m, heavy); not seen to best effect in a slowly run race at Punchestown last time (3m4f, heavy); not discounted with a stronger pace to aim at; 2lb wrong. |

15th Feb 2026 3m 3f 60y |

Some promise in beginners' chases last season for Colm Murphy; built on stable debut second with an easy win from stablemate Eves Vladimir in Navan handicap chase (3m, soft to heavy); backed that up with a handicap hurdle success at Gowran; strong stayer, progressive and suited by heavy ground |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 219y Class 3 |
9st 8lb |
Won his first race since joining the Quinns at Pontefract (1m, good to soft; 25-1) last month; went back up 7lb and he ran well off new mark when third at Nottingham (8.5f, good to soft) 19 days ago; good claims. |

8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |

Ex-Irish; market support proved misguided on his third and fourth British starts, which he followed with 25-1 win at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) three weeks ago, coming from last in a nine-runner race; back up 7lb, still well treated on his old Irish form. |

2nd Feb 2026 Heavy 3m 0f 19y |

All three wins came on soft over shorter trips; has looked in the handicapper's grasp over both hurdles and fences of late; cheekpieces now tried. |

19th Oct 2025 Good 3m 0f 0y |
11st 2lb |
Very useful handicap hurdler on his day but yet to make any further progress over fences since winning Listowel beginners' chase last season; went close at Perth last time, faces a much harder task in a handicap of this standard. |

11st 3lb |
Recorded back-to-back wins at Perth (2m4f) and Market Rasen (2m7f) last summer; should strip fitter for his first run after nearly nine months off when third at Kelso (2m5f, good) last month and holds claims. |

Back-to-back good-ground wins here (2m4f) and at Market Rasen (2m7f) before performing well short of his best on soft at Cartmel; still looks on a competitive mark. |

24th May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 6f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Capable under both codes, with dual wins in each; won a Killarney handicap in August and was a distant runner-up at Newmarket in September (8l behind Reverend Hubert); finished seventh in this race last year, and may need this comeback run once again. |
15/1 |

20th Sep 2025 Good 2m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
Another who is capable under both codes and has been on a roll on the Flat this year, gamely repelling allcomers from the front over 1m6f at Killarney last time (good); however, off this mark in today's company, this would be his toughest test yet on the Flat. |

22nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |

Won over C&D last summer off 59 and pick of three runs this year when good third at the Curragh, having raced keenly and hanging right under 7lb claimer; not the best of breaks on Wolverhampton AW latest but fair effort; 2lb wrong here but rider's claim negates that. |

28th May 2026 Good 2m 4f 0y Class 5 |
11st 8lb |
1-16 over hurdles and lost his way in this discipline when trained in Ireland; however, he's back on track for new yard having finished first and second in 1m6f/2m Flat handicaps this month; could be on a handy mark back over jumps. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
17th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 5 |
10st 0lb |
Lost his way in Ireland last year as a hurdler but, having first Flat run since June 2023, made a winning start from the front for new yard in handicap at Thirsk (1m6f, good to firm) 15 days ago; the big outsider of five that day and dictated a slow pace, but he's gone back up by just 2lb and the return to 2m may well suit him; major player in bid to win a second time under Millie Wonnacott. |
9/2 |

2nd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Dual Flat winner at up to 2m for Keith Dalgleish in early summer 2023; consistent in handicap hurdles in Ireland in 2024, including a 2m6f win, but lost his way badly there last year; back on the Flat for a new yard after 196 days off with a fair bit to prove. |
