20th Oct 2023 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Just got up to win a C&D nursery last time on second nursery start/AW debut; 7lb higher and cheekpieces tried but still has to be respected. |

Encouraging runs over this trip in maidens but didn't really build on that when making his handicap debut at the Curragh last time; may need to come down in the weights. |

3rd Feb 2026 Heavy 2m 0f 104y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Fairly useful Flat racer with 2-6 strike-rate over hurdles; gave good account when third of eight at Kempton (2m, good) last month and is probably still on a workable mark but has something to prove on the much slower ground here. |
3/1 |
|

18th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 167y Class 3 |
10st 13lb |
Useful Flat racer who was 2-3 in novice/maiden hurdles for Paul Nicholls in the spring; tackles much stronger opposition on this handicap hurdle debut and his tendency to race too freely is a nagging concern but, nevertheless, he's still very unexposed over jumps. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 |
14th May 2025 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 3lb |
Won Flat handicaps at about 1m1f (AW) and 1m4f (good; RPR 83) and he's found a new calling over hurdles judged by the way he won at Chepstow (dropped to 2m, good) recently; he shouldn't have a problem with this sharp 2m and is the one to beat. |

15th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 7f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Maiden has run well in defeat a number of times, both here and most recently at Galway last month when strong-finishing second, coming from some way back under today's rider, having not had clear run; definite contender and good draw if he can exploit it. |
7/2 |

2nd 3 (5) |
29th Jul 2024 Soft 0m 7f 0y |

Maiden has run well in defeat a number of times, notably on AW; didn't get the clearest of runs behind Enchanted Garden at Leopardstown last time; go well if handling this ground. |

18th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |

Placed twice on AW, including on handicap debut, at two and gelded over the winter; better for return at Cork and strong-run 7f (can be keen) would suit. |

Second over C&D on heavy three starts ago, 1-29 record is a negative, placed ten times; visor replaces the usual blinkers. |

|
9th 16 (12) |
3rd Apr 2026 Soft 0m 6f 0y |
8st 7lb |
Won 6f Naas handicap off 1lb higher in April 2024; best form last season was on seasonal debut when third over C&D off 78; went close on C&D return last month and fair effort after a slow start at Naas 12 days ago; player despite being 5lb wrong. |
14/1 |

5th 12 (15) |
22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 5f 205y |

C&D winner two years ago; best form last season was on seasonal debut and in the latter part of the campaign; big chance following last Sunday's cliamer-ridden Curragh second, 1 1/4l ahead of Mickey The Steel. |

Runner-up over 2m7f at Fakenham last month, since when she's finished 12l behind at Stratford; only 1-33 overall and others preferred for win purposes. |
12/1 |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
10st 2lb |
Got off the mark at the 27th attempt under rules at Exeter (2m, good to firm) last October; ran her best since when runner-up at Fakenham (2m7f, good) 26 days ago; her versatility distance-wise holds her in good stead but her win-record is off-putting. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 6 |
4th May 2026 Good 2m 7f 95y Class 5 |
10st 12lb |
Scored off today's mark in first-time cheekpieces at Exeter (2m, good to firm) in October and posted a good effort over 2m4f the following month but was pulled up three weeks ago, after a break, and her Flat pedigree raises doubts over the suitability of this trip. |

27-race maiden but was only beaten a neck in a soft ground 1m handicap at Gowran in June; hasn't kicked on since and may need a bit further than 7f these days. |
