Dual-purpose Flat winner yet to score over timber; soundly beaten first two starts for this yard over hurdles at Sligo and on the Flat at Bellewstown; revival required. |

Dual-purpose mare whose best recent Flat form has come over 1m4f-1m6f; beaten 20l in a 25.5f handicap hurdle on latest; headgear worn that day discarded; this trip surely too sharp. |

Has kept good company over hurdles since his last Flat run almost a year ago; that was in the Group 2 Curragh Cup; this is more realistic but he has plenty of weight. |

C&D winner a year ago is having another fine season; won at Leopardstown before a fine 3rd back here, both over 1m5f; off an unchanged mark, so solid claims. |

Had good form two years ago, notably landing the Cork Derby; Tramore second was her only worthwhile effort last year; has come back down the ratings and better for recent AW return. |

23rd Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y |

Three-time Flat winner during her time with two previous trainers; weak overall form in handicaps for this stable; satisfactory hurdles runs late last year; hard to fancy on second AW start (tailed off only other try). |

Three-time Flat winner during her time with her two previous trainers; weak form in handicaps for this stable after finishing second in a seven-runner 1m4f contest at Tramore in July; made a satisfactory introduction to hurdling at Galway; needs to jump more fluently. |

Flat winner (1m4f, good) for Joseph O'Brien; placed in three of his four completed starts over hurdles; has a claim as the form horse on his second to subsequent Grade 2 winner Mr Percy at Limerick in October; fell early at Punchestown in November and absent since; strong chance. |

Flat winner for Joseph O'Brien, gradually progressive in four runs for his current trainer, most recently when runner-up to a useful sort in a Limerick maiden hurdle last month; may find the market leaders too hot to handle here but should get into the money. |

17th Jan 2026 Soft To Heavy 2m 4f 40y |

Most recent of three hurdle wins was in May 2024; off since later that year; may need this against that background. |

2nd Sep 2024 Soft To Heavy 1m 4f 17y |
10st 1lb |
Dual-purpose; 1-7 on the Flat; won over hurdles at Ballinrobe in May; below par on last Flat run at Fairyhouse; his flat win came off 64 at Down Royal (1m5f, good) and is 15lb higher here; handles testing ground but may need some respite from the handicapper. |

4th Aug 2024 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 160y |

Consistency rewarded with a defeat of 15 rivals over 2m at Ballinrobe in May but after looking threatening to a point he faded into a remote fourth at Sligo (2m1f, good to yielding); remains on the same career-high mark. |

11st 2lb |
Just 1-24 over hurdles when based in Ireland and was pulled up (albeit on slow ground) on chasing debut in February; ran well to a point when back over hurdles for new stable ten days ago (first-time cheekpieces) but was well held in the end; others look safer. |

Had modest 2-44 strike-rate under rules when based in Ireland and was pulled up in a chase on latest outing five weeks ago; not an easy one to weigh up but might have been perked up by recent stable switch; wears first-time cheekpieces; well worth a glance in the market. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |

Front-runner loves it here; won this last year and caught late when second over C&D in August; lack of a prep run is the concern, because his record fresh is not good. |

20th Sep 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 100y |
9st 10lb |
Bagged eighth career win at Roscommon in May (1m4f, good); back down to winning mark when a neck second back at that track on his penultimate run; underwhelming at Galway most recently when well behind (1m4f, soft); three of his wins have come at this distance but he may not appreciate the ground. |
