Maiden hurdle winner in October 2023 but well held twice since and he's been off 292 days; not obviously well treated from this sort of mark. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 1m 6f 80y |
9st 10lb |
145-rated staying hurdle, runner-up in two valuable handicaps at Aintree and Haydock in spring; second behind Gaoth Chuil in Flat maiden at Leopardstown before going one better over C&D last month; cracking handicap debut when beaten 2l in competitive race at Galway 25 days ago; 2lb rise fair and very much unexposed in this sphere. |

27th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 0f 179y |
11st 8lb |
145-rated staying hurdler; good form in valuable handicaps at Aintree and Haydock in the spring; claimer-ridden when winning a 1m6f maiden at Killarney 13 days ago; could make his presence felt in his first handicap. |

Very smart performer; acquitted himself extremely well when second in very valuable handicap hurdles at Aintree and Haydock in the spring; just outpointed by the smart Gaoth Chuil in a similar contest at Leopardstown last month for this rider; the one to beat. |

4th Feb 2024 Good To Soft 1m 7f 124y Class 1 |
11st 3lb |
Fair middle-distance Flat maiden in Ireland; comfortable win over C&D (good to soft) on hurdle/stable debut but flopped at Catterick next time and again below form back here (behind two of these) on latest start; carries his head awkwardly; questions to answer. |

7th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
13-race maiden; bogged down on heavy ground at Ffos Las (1m2f) the last twice but it's still relatively early days with Faye Bramley and the booking of Jason Watson represents a plus. |
8/1 |
|

28th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
10st 10lb |
0-12 under all codes but didn't run badly when back on the Flat for recent stable debut, finishing fourth in heavy-ground C&D contest dominated by Zambezi Magic; sports first-time cheekpieces today and could plausibly be seen to better effort on the less testing ground. |
20/1 |

9th Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Little to get excited about in 11 starts under both codes; makes her debut for her third different trainer in a first-time tongue-tie after a year off; hard to recommend. |

18th Jul 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won over hurdles last year and has twice made the frame on the Flat for new stable this season, perhaps more notably when second to unexposed rival at Pontefract (1m2f, good to firm) in May; encountered traffic there on both subsequent appearances and arrives here on a good mark. |
5/1 |

30th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 3lb |
Winning hurdler; 0-10 on the Flat but runner-up over C&D in May and was denied a clear passage back here three weeks ago; each-way claims. |
6/1 |

7th 7 (6) |
9th Jun 2025 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Hurdles scorer; 0-9 on Flat but has steadily returned to form this term and ran well, clear second behind odds-on shot, in maiden handicap over C&D (good to firm) most recently; in the mix. |

6th Apr 2026 Yielding To Soft 2m 5f 110y |
11st 1lb |
Two wins in 2024 but no joy since; back to form with a 3.25l second at Naas (2m3f, sft-hvy) 29 days ago but remains 6lb above his last win and he's 2lb higher than when beaten 6.5l in this last year; would probably prefer softer ground too. |

8th Mar 2026 Heavy 2m 3f 10y |
11st 8lb |
Tow wins, notably the Lartigue at Listowel in 2024; only once near his best in eight starts since then, namely when second in 2m6f Fairyhouse handicap last April; badly out of form in three handicap hurdle outings between October and December. |
33/1 |

4th Oct 2025 Yielding 3m 0f 0y |

Runner-up in the 2024 Fred Winter; won the Lartigue (big 4yo handicap) at Listowel last year; ended a run of poor form with Fairyhouse second on his final start last season; had a spin in a charity race at the Curragh in late-August, so no fitness doubts. |

27th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y |

Chase, hurdles and Flat winner for Gavin Cromwell; capable off this mark but needs to bounce back from a heavy defeat in a 1m Gowran claimer on debut for this stable. |

25th Sep 2025 Yielding 2m 0f 0y |
11st 9lb |
Won this last year by 12l off a mark of 95, beating Targa Flavio and also scored on the Flat here in June; poor Flat run since but likely to be ripe for his double bid and a big player even off 12lb higher. |
5/1 |

16th Jul 2025 Good 1m 6f 80y |

Won on the Flat over 1m4f at Tipperary last year and over hurdles at Listowel; raised 10lb for winning well on the Flat over 2m at the latter track last time; this trip is fine and a player. |

31st Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Landed a gamble in a similar contest at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) in March last year, but moderate since including on her first start since wind surgery at Redcar (1m1f, good to firm) 12 days ago; blinkers given a go this time; worth monitoring in the market. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Ex-Irish mare who gained a first win for Daragh Bourke in classified event at Wolverhampton (8.5f) last March; lightly raced since and only ninth of 14 in 1m Newcastle handicap in April; since had a wind op (tongue-strap also goes back on) so can't be discounted after a break. |
10/1 |

9th 8 (9) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Ex-Irish mare who made the breakthrough in a classified event at Wolverhampton (8.6f, Tapeta) last March but she's had only two runs since and has finished down the field in both of them; may have needed her comeback run at Southwell last month but she needs to bounce back near best; visor added. |
