11st 8lb |
Adoption of front-running tactics had transformative effect when seeing him score back-to-back wide-margin wins at Clonmel and Fairyhouse on heavy ground at start of the year; pulled up at Clonmel in February but bounced back when third at Clonmel last month (2m, soft); better ground is a concern. |

12st 3lb |
Adoption of front-running tactics have had a transformative effect; 23l all the way win off 91 here (2m1f, heavy) followed by another dominant win at Fairyhouse (2m, heavy) off 12lb higher; handicapper possibly caught up when pulled up at Fairyhouse (2m4f) but drop in trip should help. |

Adoption of front-running tactics have had a transformative effect; 23l all the way win off 91 at Clonmel (2m1f, heavy) followed by another dominant win here over 2m (heavy) off 12lb higher; raised another 13lb and steps up in trip and grade; clearly in fine fettle but may not get an easy lead here. |

29th Aug 2025 Good 2m 3f 29y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
0-13 over hurdles but went down fighting when close second at Southwell (2m4f, good) in May and again ran well at Stratford (2m6f, good to firm) last month; well suited by ground slower than good; high on the list. |

13th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |
11st 4lb |
Three runs since wind surgery and the blip came over fences; clear second at Southwell last time (2m4f, good) and might well have won had he not fluffed the last flight; should run well off just 3lb higher. |

20th May 2025 Good 2m 4f 88y Class 5 |
11st 7lb |
Pulled up after sketchy round of jumping on chasing debut in February and now reverts to hurdling; given a chance by the handicapper in this sphere but his record is not compelling and he has raced mainly on ground slower than good. |

12st 0lb |
Scored at the 25th attempt at Exeter (2m5f, good) last month and ran well off 6lb higher when runner-up back there under identical conditions ten days later; this hold-up performer could go well again but his overall record makes him a risky proposition for win purposes. |

Confirmed earlier promise here when getting off the mark in handicap over C&D ten days ago; up 6lb but had something to spare there so merits serious consideration. |

Longstanding maiden but in good nick for his new stable, fifth of 13 in 2m Ludlow novice in November; no forlorn hope after a break. |

14th Aug 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y |
10st 5lb |
Is 0-16 over hurdles but some good runs in defeat recently; finished 3l behind the winner at Clonmel in June (2m1f, good to yielding); likely didn't handle the softer conditions at Killarney following that but posted another good effort in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan last time when a 2.25l third of seven (2m, good to yielding); cheekpieces go on now; he is not discounted and is due to be raised 4lb in future. |

The most experienced of the field is 0-17 but has run well in defeat, including a 3l second in a Clonmel handicap hurdle off 96 in June (2m1f, good to yielding); well beaten in a handicap hurdle here last time (2m1f, yielding to soft); could do better back on good ground. |
